Companies do that anyways. If marginal increases in labor or safety are all it takes to get a company to build a plant in another country, they are already planning to make that move.

Our roads are close enough to battle bots. May as well go full send on it. 

There are also some restaurants that will employ multiple people who have the same 3 SSNs. While there are plenty who follow all labor laws, the restaurant industry is plenty notorious for ignoring a lot of laws too.

If there’s one thing Network of Lies didn’t explain, it was how Tucker lasted as long as he did.

True, but during those low inventory times a lot of CEOs were very happy to see how much more profit/item they could generate while making up any excuse to increase prices. It was always a matter of getting a few manufacturers to blink first and see if the others were willing to risk losing customers, I just didn’t…

I imagine it would be incredibly nerve wracking to own a hyper car when you’re not someone who can just drop $10k+ as though it’s a $100 car part. Much like the people who own something that is all original from the 60s and you can’t just order a matching part.

The most surprising part of first is that more manufacturers aren’t trying to artificially keep production down and supplies tight. 

Side note based on the theme - it is generally illegal to punish employees for discussing their salary, you’re welcome to tell anyone yours and ask others about theirs (there can be some restrictions based on your state or if you’re a contract worker, but that’s not the norm). Many of the 20/30 somethings I work with…

Always an odd reminder that an active shooter is so common in our (otherwise) developed nation that it’s perfectly reasonable to assume a cop on a random dash cam is heading to one.

Not only are “experts” concerned just as much about those trucks, there have been multiple postings across multiple sources for multiple years. They (including this website) have even pointed out how it is a bigger American problem than other nations. Taking those same big grills and turning them into pointed steel…

Gizmodo: AI is creating huge amounts of emissions, stealing from artists, and could replace loads of workers, creating a greater economic divide between the haves & have nots.

Good to know that’s a thing. I was quite confused and wondering if this is some tiktok trend that I’m officially too old to understand. 

Would be even better if they stopped purchasing his cars too. 

Cars like this are just a scientific method to determine the average number of trolls who visit this site. 

Bygdiq got me. Now I’m going to laugh when I see an Escalade or Hummer EV. 

In the video he said it was 14 repairs, not 14 replacements. Some of those 14 were maintenance. One of them that he thinks was a replacement and it made it 780,000 km. This whole blog is a mess of details about what the repair life of this car has been like.

This reminds me of the bacardi & coke premixed drinks I got all the time in college. The can looked very much like a generic energy drink, with COLA in big text and bacardi in very small text, so I could drink it without fuss from the managers while working those 12-hour+ kitchen shifts. Those were pretty solid for a…

I didn’t know a True Lies show even existed, but one of the first results when I looked it up was that CBS already cancelled it. 

I really liked my Veloster, but the dealer experience was awful and the issues with it not cold starting really killed it for me. I found out many 2010-2016 Hyundais with a push start had a shitty sensor for the break that wouldn’t work when it got too cold out. So I was living near Chicago with a toddler and car that…
