I’d think they’d sell a lot more Rivians if they actually could sell more Rivians.

Back to topic, the problem with poli e chases in the US is risk/ reward. The number of innocents killed and injured in low value chases makes it hard to justify. Consider the Jalopnik article about the traffic cop doing a PIT maneuver over an expired tag. Limiting chases to violent felonies and firing and prosecuting…
I had a student who I was convinced could not have been meeting the behavior goals in his IEP (special ed plan) behavior goals. His bullshit was mostly directed at me, so it filled more of my awareness than it otherwise would have. When it came IEP time I was sure I would be saying ‘no this shIt aint working.’…
As a fellow Washingtonian, I agree with your assessment on our state’s laws, but I’m not torn on this particular one at all. This is a good law that is saving innocent lives.

I worked at a clinic in the lake city neighborhood of Seattle, a chase went by my clinic that ended a block away when the car hit a light pole at 91 mph killing the passenger. This was on residential streets with a 25 mph limit. The cops were chasing for the now totaled stolen vehicle, and had identified the occupants…
Sinclair is the reason the FCC regs against multiple media ownership were originally instituted. Their entire agenda is conservative politics mixed with righteous religious indignation. With a dose of do what I say.......or else. Where do these people come from?
As someone from Washington, I’m torn. I think in general, our state doesn’t always hit the mark with the unique laws it passes.
Carjacking as you’re describing it (especially using a gun or other weapon) is a violent crime and would justify a police pursuit under Washington state law.
“Or the attacker can just get the authentication while being nearby, save it into a buffer, then walk up to the car later.” That’s not how mutual authentication works, at least not in properly implemented systems.
Yeah, I agree with smalley. You skipped right over dumb and went straight to genius.
That might be dumb enough that is circles around to being genius.
As a somewhat-classic working person with lots of Unix background: Is this really a sudo-classic, or a pseudo-classic? Because I can use all the privileges I can get. Either way, in today’s market, this isn’t a pseudo-deal; I say Nice Price.
That is a big truck and there is literally no extra space in the cabin for anything but people. That 6cyl is a decent engine but totally lacks grunt for such a large truck to even get out of it’s own way. I had a similar engine in a smaller bodied short bed and it was a bit of a dog even on that overall. I can’t…
I had a ‘94 F-150 equipped just like this one (I6, 5sp, single-cab) save for the 4WD. Only thing needed to keep it on the road was gas and an oil change every so often. When I sold it at 275k miles it was still running/driving like it did when it pulled out of the dealer parking lot.
MK6 GTI here. Two kids now in the back. The hatch can get a bit tight, but the trick is roof box for road trips. I put a Thule Motion XT XL on top and it is massive and works great for all but the really heavy stuff. Puts your crap outside of your passenger space, low enough to load and park in any parking garage.…
Pig will fly before the Republican legislators in Florida passes a ‘use’ tax on boats. The rich GOP yacht owners would run them all out of town.
Miami-Dade is going to lose, I don’t see how anything that is officially registered as a boat with the USCG can be taxed under the current law. Eventually a judge will have to…
I just can’t get into this car, it seems like a rather half-assed answer to a question few people asked.
The exterior is ugly, the interior is kinda crappy and half assed. You can’t see the instruments, the range is ok but but not even competitive with our Bolt (currently at 300+ miles with the new battery pack), you…
I seriously thought it was the same car, even as I read the article.
