It’s the socially acceptable word for everyone who wants to rant about minorities, women, and/or LGBTQ groups, but fear they’ll get fired for using the known slurs.

No, it’s actually an okay investment tactic when a major corporation has a big go woke, go broke culture pop. There is usually an initial stock slide, which is a good time to buy, because then it generally rebounds once everyone stops caring again.

The repair/rental costs could have been the inspiration for detailing total cost of ownership. /s (kinda)

I’ve found clear to be about 90% worthless. On days that the ID line was busy, so was the clear line, so it marginally saved time. I’ve also had similar issues of the tech taking 2-3 tries before it identifies me and then it’s just into the regular TSA bag check line. So very similar to you in that the free trial is…

The child benefit increases are a joke too. A kid costs way more than just about of those increases, especially if they need just about any form of childcare. Even without childcare, unless the kid is sharing a bedroom with the parents, the added square footage for them adds up fast.

That’s one of the things that’s always puzzled me about a lot of low-income programs, especially for housing assistance. My tinfoil hat idea is that is kind of the intent, making it so low that anyone who qualifies doesn’t have enough money to do anything about it. Then the programs don’t have to pay out as much, so…

Hummer EV. We don’t need 10,000-pound tanks hitting 60 mph in 3 seconds on public roads that any goober is allowed to drive.

I’ve seen plenty of roads where one side was designed to have the highest elevation, although that is not the norm. It’s quite common for highway frontage roads. Intersections in very hilly places, like West Coast cities, also get quite varied in the high point along a roadway. 

I’m with you on the C7. I know it’s an unpopular opinion, but C7 is honestly one of my favorite designs. Perhaps sitting in one could change my mind verse the others, but I just really like it. By the time I’m at a stage in life to buy a Corvette, that might even make it better for to have the C7s remain less in…

Looks like the white car didn’t/couldn’t look far enough ahead to see that the road on the left is lower grade. The paint lines on the right side become visible well before the left side, so I assume the water is less shallow on the right.

My initial thought was that this front does in fact look better than their recent designs, but it’s also still ugly. The interior is just pure awful.

For those who don’t know, virtually all construction standards date back many decades, then pieces have gotten added/modified over time. Since the vast majority of standards do not need to change decade to decade, there’s no reason to be re-writing entire code books like a college textbook trying to juice their…

Looks like they’re trying to find every excuse to avoid the incoming wave of warranty claims. 

Wrong Vancouver. There is a Vancouver, Washington that is on the south side of Washington state, right by Portland.

overall how ethically corrupt are corporate boards?

They don’t care until there are sufficient complaints. I have clients with utility easements that occasionally have to get homeless people removed from them and sometimes it can take a very long time before cops do anything.

That’s kind of only true for guns, so far. Once a few rivers caught on fire we got the EPA, enough lead issues and it got removed from most products, big cities used to have a constant fog of pollution until we got emissions requirements, and so on. America’s government is set up to be reactionary, which has its pros…

Keep your fucking hands on the wheel and this doesn’t happen.

Safety testing is for commies. In America, we release whatever we want until it kills a sufficient number of the correct people in order to address such concerns.
