I’ve run entire D&D 5th Edition campaigns for 10th-level spellcasters with easier understood combinations of factors.

Not mine, but something I stumbled upon once:

I mean, the feedback on EVs from consumers is “What’s with the weird-ass design” and once the weird-ass design was ditched the cars sold more, but sure.

Neutral: It’ll be the electric F150, because the F150 doesn't know how not to sell en masse, and the top selling EV looking like a regular ICE vehicle will give various EV virtue signalers aneurysms. 

Chupathingy. I like it. It’s got a ring to it.

I dunno, I’ve never seen a car like that before. It looks like a... uh... like a big cat of some kind.

Can’t wait to wrap mine matte green and mount a turret in the bed.

You may call me Master Chief.

I’ve seen a few comments saying that even electric vehicles are still technically burning hydrocarbons, since power plants are usually natural gas or coal. I’d like to correct that, and say that some of us live in deregulated energy markets, and we choose the (more expensive) 100% renewable option. (Here in Texas, you…

I say this as a dyed-in-the-wool environmentalist: at some point, we need to get people who don’t give a shit about the environment to also buy EVs. We need to get everyone (or at least most people) driving vehicles that aren’t powered by fossil fuels if we are to have a hope of preserving at least some of the Earth’s…

bi-di-bi-di-bi-di you’re right, Craig!

By the power of Captain Kirk’s light saber, Twiki agrees!

Just how fast do we need the sons of sheikhs and Russian mob bosses to slam into trees? 

A guy on The War Zone pointed out that in the sequence starting at 0:52 in this video, you can see a explosion-free splash during the attack on Lutzow, which is probably actually this bomb.

I’m a cowboy...on a wood horse I ride.

His advise is geared towards people with spending addictions, so he’s very white and black. He pitches it as one-size fits all, but it’s really not. However, the guy with over $1,000/mo of lease payments might gain something from reading or listening to someone like him.

And keep the damned things for a while once they are paid for, and stop leasing anything.

Agreed, but he would still be smart to get out of it at the loss.  Being upside down on a 5 year old Miata and then leasing a new Gladiator that you cannot afford is INSANE.  

Because i take the 400 or whatever a month id be spending on a car and i max out my roth ira (i max out my 401k via work deductions), then i put money into my vanguard account, and i have enough cash on hand for 9 months of expenses in a high yield savings account.

The guy with the Gladiator needs to stop buying things they can’t afford. Judging from your financing percentage I am guessing your credit isn’t that great. If you also just bought a house I am also guessing you didn’t get the best rate possible. I think the smart move is to sell a car, pay them down, and then…

Man, consumer culture is a hard habit to bust out of - and it’s hurts so many people. And cars are the worst. A new, more expensive, better performing model almost every year. And magazines and reviewers always talking up the newest and the best: more power, better handling, better tech, more efficient, safer etc.…
