Yeah. Sounds like yet another instance of bankruptcy abuse by the hedge fund corporate wreckers.

Two things happening here. First is that the C8 was artificially blocked from depreciating due to supply chain constraints. It probably would have been similar-ish to the C7 in absence of that.

I’d be willing to bet that a great many people who’ve been waiting for 500, 600, 700 miles of range will end up realizing that they are just lugging enormous amounts of superfluous battery the vast majority of the time. I get that there are some odd circumstances where that capacity would be useful, but road tripping…

That’s why I have advocated for requiring EV chargers being installed in the same way handicapped parking spots are required. Basically copy and paste those regulations/rules from whatever state/town you are in and just remove the location requirement, most places require they be x feet from the entrance, and you…

I’ve been to Texas four times over a span of 38 years, but it was on my latest visit in March, to the DFW area, that the chaos of it really struck me. The absence of urban planning is truly breathtaking. It’s like a developing country with exponentially more money for everyone to fling around building whatever they…

That’s a little too on-the-nose for me to completely enjoy the joke.

There should be an Idiocracy remake where Texas is just one giant highway with like a million lanes. The only actual development is a singular Hardee’s where Austin used to be. 

Some engineer you are! Clearly they just need a couple more lanes! Endlessly building more lanes to alleviate the endlessly-gridlocked highway is called “job security.”

26 lanes and it still gets gridlocked every day.

Surprised they bothered in the first place. The “Fuck Biden” signs still rocked at my local dealership/mechanic is enough for me to decide firmly never to even consider doing business. 

Ive been tracking a c-130j, HKY156 from one of the baltics headed into romania, and there is lots of activity off sicily. Italian Customs Police were out in force yesterday.

call me when it shows an emergency flight from mar a lago to moscow.  some sort of asylum trip.

Jeremy’s old british racist bit gets a bit old. He’s like that uncle you once thought was super cool and bawdy and told the best racy jokes, only to realize now that he’s a racist, sexist jackass and really hasn’t aged well.

Undertale’s Genocide route is intentionally less fun and a lot harder because of like two fights, but a Neutral run - where you skip the solution to even just one puzzle battle by jamming the attack button instead - is significantly easier than it or the Pacifist route, since to qualify for the Genocide route and…

Gotta also think that by this point, people have gamed out the choices to death. In your very first playthrough, without a walkthrough in front of you, there’s no way of knowing that Wrex won’t be a threat if you spare him. There’s a lot of those “Hindsight is 20/20" sort of things in the Mass Effect series.

The series is pretty much designed so you’ll make certain choices. There’s really no benefit and tons of negatives for making some decisions.

It doesn’t shock me that much. For all it’s vaunted statement of player choice theres basically just good descisions and not good descisions. Curing the phage, brokering peace between peoples, protecting the ruling council. There’s nothing to be gained for not doing these things and by doing it you are building to…

Far and away my biggest tip is a direct contradiction to this: Stubborn Defiance is great for mid-game, terrible for end game. As soon as you can afford 3 stacks of Death Defiance, use that. Once you’re comfortable with the game it’s really only Hades and maybe Theseus getting in a cheap shot that you’ve really gotta…

This is good advice for a first run. I’ve beaten the game 100ish times now and I find that I prefer cthonic vitality. My mirror is basically filled out so I actually avoid darkness. Plus, once you’re good enough it’s rare for a room to actually wreck you, so a +3 every time you enter a room can help keep you topped…

Yep—corporate debt at an all time high was going to be a problem in any economic storm—I just don’t think anyone saw this giant Tsunami.
