The automakers are ripping off the American (male) public with pickups. It’s their collective cash cows.

Sure the first EVs might have a premium, but really there is a lot of profit margin/room to disrupt the pickup market, so EV economics may not be so fundamentally noncompetitive.

And by the time pickup designs…

batteries shouldn’t be charged to 100%, it shorten’s their lifespans, although what will probably happen is that enough headroom will exist on the batteries that “100%” isn’t actually a full battery, it’s 80-90%.

I was a guy that would say the lines of the mook X-wing pilots during the movie, and remind people watching that Porkins X-wing fell apart around his fat ass without getting hit.

... I still haven’t watched The Last Jedi. I will take no action to try to see it. I won’t watch the third/ninth. Go take your Mary Sue…

I’m not sure GB fans are prepared for the totality of the descent once Rodgers fades. Back to back QBs like that have propped up the smallest of small market teams for a loooooonnnngggg time.

I guess the inherent NFL parity will keep them in the picture, but what free agent from their own draft classes will want to…

Corporations are people that can’t be effectively criminally sued.

1) battery tech will take care of that, and it’s maybe 2-3k extra in a 50000+ commercial vehicle and will pay for itself in efficiency
2) If you can replace a massive massive 7 liter engine with a smaller engine and a battery, it will probably be a wash in current technology, and battery tech is still improving
3)…

Once you get past the brown bag in the wind, the rest of the movie is #firstworldproblems and #pedophilia.

Also, an entire decade of films and.... powder? Really? I mean, I guess it’s a take, but really that smacks of nerd hate and the inculcation of American anti-intellectualism into your teenage psyche.

Yeah, it’s like American Chinese and Authentic-Chicken-Foot Chinese. Two distinct cuisines at this point

Maybe these are using the partial-soy “meat” that taco bell used to use, was shamed into not using?

That stuff was magical. Tasted decent and meatish. Reduced meat consumption. Win-win. I don’t need the Impossible foods stuff, taco bell had already solved things. If anything Taco Bell tastes much worse now that it did.

Kirk Cousins has two more guaranteed years at 28 million per.

This deal is about 50-60% of his market value, and I’m not exactly a Brady stan.

Has Trump called for open season on cyclists yet?

I wrote this down-site, and didn’t even follow my rules, but get gyros pizza with tsatsiki dipping sauce from Basil’s Pizza in Northfield, Minnesota if you’re ever south of the twin cities. It actually tastes even better reheated in a toaster oven. 

Davanni’s hoagies with ciabatta bread in MSP area is a bit above the…

What is striking each year that WYTS is re-rolled, is how obvious which teams would end up in relegation if it were mercifully applied to the athlete’s jungle/rich man socialism league.

PF Changs has two Vegas locations? What a shittown.

Edit: There are four.

It is the nature of the internet, but what always sucks about advice on restaurants (the food in particular) is that people don’t provide the comparative basis of their advice, and what dishes they tried and are basing it on.

“Place X has great pizza!”

... compared to... Domino’s?

“I love this chinese place!”

Chinese…

Northfield, Minnesota: the gyros pizza: cut in squares with tsatsiki sauce for dipping.

I’m mystified as to why it hasn’t taken over the world.

Maybe 3d printing has revolutionized bustmaking

Scoring used to be a lot harder in the NBA on the perimeter with handchecks, non-moving screens, and much more physicality allowed by the defender on drives.

Jordan’s scoring and FG% are incredible because of the era he was in.

IMO If solid-state batteries become a reality, then a BEV car, which is fundamentally far simpler than an ICE drivetrain, will be cheaper than an ICE ever can be.

And ICE fanboys don’t want to think about the massive subsidies underlying gas prices in America, to say nothing of the 2-5$/gallon carbon taxation gas should be subject to.
