Our county doesn’t make it easy on themselves. Some voting locations ran out of e-ballots. Then they ran out of paper ballots. Then they ran out of provisional ballots. Thank goodness it was so lopsided no one raised too big of a stink, but there was some caterwauling.

There was a Guardian article that tallied up all the wage increases being requested, and it came up to like $500 million. Compared to over $200 billion in profit across the industry, that equates to half a percent. That’s all the hit in profits they’d need to take in order to end the strikes.

Hybrids are a messy and expensive middle tech. There is a known endpoint, so why would they waste time and money developing something that they know has a limited production lifespan. Hybrids were long thought to be the middle step until the OEMs found that it is cheaper and more efficient to just skip over it.

These are all good points and I think most of the manufacturers are missing them, especially around charging. Tesla took that into consideration early on, built out a charging network, and integrated the network into the car software to route people to chargers. They also greatly simplified the pain-points many car…

Kari Lake already did, immediately.

I’m generally to the right of the Jez (and general Gizmodo sites) zeitgeist but I can’t help but chuckle when red states keep voting against abortion bans after Dobbs.  The rabid pro-life wing of the GOP is like the dog that caught the car and found that bumpers don’t taste good.

I want to rant about what a total humiliation this result is for Republicans, but really, I’m just happy. This is important. It shows that even in Red states, voters want the last word. They may or may not ultimately vote to protect abortion rights in November, but it will be their choice, and it won’t be skewed by…

This is laughably lopsided. Just ask voters what they want, the one thing Republicans don’t want, having the people decide. 😀😀

If he really believes that, he should be signing stronger laws for child support and criminalizing paternal abandonment. Not banning abortion. But, he knows the male vote will turn on him fast. He is not looking to change men’s behavior in any way. This is a distraction from the fact that his goal is to control women,…

The S197 Mustang, especially the Bullitt model in 2008/2009.

Volkswagen absolutely nailed retro with the New Beetle

New Ford Bronco. Looks modern yet with enough retro cues to look timeless and tie back into the old Broncos.
They also look better in person than in photos to me too. I really think Ford nailed it visually.

The Challenger hands down. Sure it’s alot bigger than it’s elder, but they captured the look extremely well. I wanted to say the new countach, but that’s a little too modern looking in respects to the old one and they didn’t even include the wing.

Excellent reminder. Dan Quayle didn’t even change; the Republican party just got so profoundly stupid that Quayle seems like an elder statesman genius in comparison.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he tried to claim the right of Prima Nocta as well.

Agreed. Anytime you mention it getting hot here, Arizonans materialize to say “100 isn’t hot! you haven’t experienced REAL heat until you’ve seen it be 110 for a week straight” or whatever, despite the fact that it fluctuates by literally 130 degrees over the course of a few months here.

Someone clearly destroyed one of his horcruxes.

Well, that’s probably a wrap for his basketball career. Teams already didn’t seem that interested in drafting him, but with a bad heart, I don’t think anyone will. 

If they won’t keep them available to stream and won’t put out physical copies for purchase, creating your own de facto preservation society seems to simply be the right thing to do. For history’s sake, if nothing else. :)

As someone that’s familiar with both shows, but hadn’t watched all that much of either of them, my reaction to it all was interesting:
