First, there is for all practical arguments a ZERO percent chance that Aliens have visited us.  Second, if for some reason that is not correct no law is going to suddenly change things.  IE, Biden isnt sitting there going “Man we’ve done such a great job keeping it a secret that the Lizzard beings from Alpha Tau are…

I don’t know whats more infuriating. Trump getting away with this shit all the time and none of his followers blinking an eye, or the fact that our government since Jan 6th has treated Trump with kid gloves. As its been said many times before, if Trump was anyone else not named ‘Trump’ he would have been in ADX…

Leaving my personal opinions about Elon out of this, ill say this..

Ill give this a shot.. but still, i’m pretty sure a series showing the ‘future’ war would do great. Christ, they have a comic book they can follow.. NOW comics did a 20 or 30 comic run that covered this topic and was great.  

Damn dude, i’m a huge fan of the movies and I never saw that.  That made my day!  

Brake pads are likely good for the life of the car, Regen breaking, unless you drive like a complete asshole means you rarely use your brakes. I have one, and can say on any given trip around town there is a good chance I touch the brake only once or twice.

This 100% right here. Unless the show is REALLY REALLY appealing I now wait for it to have a few seasons under its belt before I watch it. I’m not ready to invest my time on a show that has a 50/50 shot of coming back in 1.5-2 years.  Constellation was one of those shows..   Foundation is another one, but it looks…

Thats not surprising either.. If you are willing to buy something like this (no judgement) you have to know deep inside you are taking a risk, so you must REALLY like the thing.

Thats true, but this is also a brand new type of car as well. Drive by wire electric pickup truck made of stainless steel is not something I think has been done before. Maybe for good reason, but none the less, it has a lot of ‘New’ design features in it we havent see before.

I dunno, 3000 of them and we have heard a dozen or so stories?  Again, not defending Tesla, Elon or that ugly ass truck, but I think this whole thing might be a tad bit overblown.  

I agree, hence why I said Teslas maintenance is not looking to good right now..  

Certainly not a Elon or Tesla defender (I hate Elon, but do like Teslas.. just not the CT). However, i’ve owned a few first run cars (first model year) and they have all had problems. I suspect that CT is just getting way more attention then say a new model GM ICE car.

Looking at the summer release schedule, this is one of the few movies I may actually see in the theater..  

Also, we launch rockets over the water for reasons like this.  While of course it could blow up on the pad, the chances of that are very low.  Chemical rockets (Falcon, Atlas, etc) are wildly reliable.  

This right here!  I’ve been playing with it, and I dont trust it at all.  I’d pay for it.. maybe..  but $10/Month MAX.  Its useful on open stretches of road, and I kinda trust it for that, but other then that its just a neat parlor trick.  It basically would replace me driving with me knee while I scarfed down food…

Oh, Oh.. Pick me.. I know the answer to this one!!!  Yes, he did commit fraud.  

MacOS is key, I agree.. iPadOS is great and all for a tablet, but its quite limiting when it comes to really being productive with it in a business setting. I mean obviously thats why everyone has laptops and not iPads. :).

$1300 for a iPad pro w/ 13 inch display (M4) or a 13 inch MacBook air (M3) for $1100.  I totally get the different use cases, but if i’m going to dump that much money, i’m getting a MacBook Air.  

Thats going to be a total shit show and I almost guarantee it wont happen. However, as you said.. Texas, so I dont expect logic and education to be near the top of the list of things they care about in a school system. :).

Each kid is unique, so no simple answer I suppose.. I’m curious, what is your SD banning? I can’t imagine they are banning smart phones in the High School? Is it just for Elementary School?
