So, does AW.COM agree?

Yes, we’re divided. But new AP-NORC poll shows Americans still agree on most core American values

I think this is probably accurate. It’s just the small amount of weirdos on both sides are the loudest but the others are afraid to speak out against them because they are in the same “team”.

There is no news value in defining what the majority believe are the basic tenants of a reasonable society. It doesn't create clicks or ratings. So daily we get the racist, transphobia, crime of enequality of the day fed to us. It makes you wonder if all of your neighbors are wacko while they think the same of you without ever saying hello to each other.

Amazon Ditches 'Just Walk Out' Checkouts at Its Grocery Stores

Quote

Just over half of Amazon Fresh stores are equipped with Just Walk Out. The technology allows customers to skip checkout altogether by scanning a QR code when they enter the store. Though it seemed completely automated, Just Walk Out relied on more than 1,000 people in India watching and labeling videos to ensure accurate checkouts. The cashiers were simply moved off-site, and they watched you as you shopped.

Great they are making Dash Carts, their smart shopping carts. They haven't invented the cart yet without the one wheel clanging back and forth and I have to wave at everyone in the store to ensure them it is the cart making the noise and not terrorists.

Kroger Boost is $7 a month, and comes with free deliveries. I can make grocery orders on the app and get everything delivered the next morning by 8 AM. And they don't allow tips.

Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry posted a tweet the morning after LSU's 94-87 loss to Iowa calling for the Louisiana Board of Regents to create a policy mandating that student-athletes be present for a pregame national anthem or risk losing their scholarships.

The LSU players not being on the court wasn't a protest of any sort, as LSU head coach Kim Mulkey explained after the game. The coach of the defending champions told reporters that the team was following its usual pregame routine:
