This policy is to decrease turn time. It takes less time to get people to carry their own luggage off the plane than for someone to go through the hold placing bags and looking for bags. It also cuts down on lost bag claims, damaged bag claims, any other claims from handling bags. Every bag in customer hands means one…

Even easier:

Fun, flawed cars.  There’s no way I would want to look at that interior every day.  You know what else I can get for $21k that has a LS6 and a stick?  A Z06 Corvette.  ND. 

Eye of the beholder and all that but the ‘07 and earlier CTS V hasn’t aged well inside or out. And while $21,500 isn’t egregious, it’s definitely too high compared to what else is out there in these model years, assuming you really want a first gen anyway. ND.

I use the 240V dryer outlet in my 60-year old house to charge my Tesla. Works fine. In fact, I have a dedicated level 2 charger also, which I only use to charge my Leaf. We have a 100A service and the installation (part of a solar installation) was fully permitted and inspected. So, no, in a typical house it’s not…

I would assume virtually no difference, they are both metered through the same electric meter, The only conceivable difference would be resistance in the circuit and/or charger efficiency which could favor either option, but not enough to be more than a rounding error.

You start with a fallacy as no one is doing L3 charging at home, that is known as DC Fast Charging. L2 is fine for charging at home which ads about 30-40 miles an hour to the car. Generally, people drive about 40 miles a day so that would be an hour or hour and half of charging.

I’m not sure in what world average people want level 3 charging at home. I mean sure it’s better than level 2 but the whole use case of EVs is to charge the vehicle during the night and for that Level 2 is far more than enough for anything short of the new Hummer.

Do you have a dryer?

The trouble is, a Model T was lightyears better than a horse. An EV is not lightyears better than a reasonably fuel efficient ICE car, and IMHO objectively MUCH WORSE than a good PHEV for most people.

In Germany, almost all mainlines are electrified, and the modern locomotives all have electric braking that feeds back into the overhead wire. Interestingly, sorting yards often use Diesel locomotives, because those locomotives also run trains on barely used, non-electrified lines.

There are lots of videos of trucks hitting bollards in testing. They never end well for the truck. Most of the time you can’t tell what hit the bollard when the dust clears.

I’m surprised at the number of lot codes this affects, unless lot numbers are not sequential.

To get the best results you need both the Tornado and the Fuel Shark. That’s right, a Fuel Sharknado.

You aren’t wrong, but it is still extremely frustrating that we don’t have a progressive political party in this country. At this point all we have is a conservative party and a party of barely closeted fascists.

You guys are the new minutemen.

As part of the experiment, Spurlock also stopped working out and reduced the amount he walked every day to closer match the average non NYC dwelling American, and most days he ate well above caloric excess as he ate all three meals from McDonalds and if he was offered upsize deals he said yes.

Honestly Oz beating McCormick will be the best thing for Fetterman. PA republicans tend to skew more fiscally conservative than socially conservative (insomuch as wanting to impose their social will on others), so as a fairly pro-business Democrat, Fetterman may win them over. I hope.

A water gun is like the minimum amount of violence I’d do to protect my food.
