Didn’t Jim Bob take a test and get a license that shows he’s qualified to legally drive?

Well it does, because Jim-Bob is going to prison then, while the untested self driving software has no additional consequences.

That’s not a reasonable comparison, though. Jim-Bob is explicitly breaking the law by drinking and driving, and can thus be held accountable.

The problem is that economics drives the boat, as it were. If the US decided to entirely cut imports from China by building all local supplies, then competitors in other countries would undercut US prices by continuing to buy from China. To succeed all one needs is a planet-wide embargo of all trade with China. And…

“When a man has found his dream girl, he will ditch his old ways and become the man that she expects to have,” says one post.

When you’re too toxic for Go Daddy, you’re too toxic to live.

“Sounding suspicious as hell”, “not trusting banks”, and “raising red flags for random internet commentators” is not, as far as I’m aware, any legal test for the seizure of assets.  

All the most respected and highest property value neighborhoods are typically pedestrian-oriented. Doesn’t mean that cars can’t go there or that the residents in those neighborhoods are confined like in a prison. I live in a neighborhood where I can easily walk (~1/2 mile) to a grocery, post office, dollar store, 5 res…

NotJustBikes has similar content on YouTube. It’s decidedly anti-car, but very sensible. As a jalop and a person who rides his bike, it’s very well done. What most motorists don’t realize is that the things that make infrastructure better for pedestrians and cyclists also makes them better for motorists. Because there…

I need to make sure that everyone understands the reason we don’t have things like the Hong Guan Mini is entirely political and social, not technical or economic. It would be literally illegal to build similar low-cost cars here because our transportation laws metastasized in the 1950s to 1960s to center around the…

No shifting, no gas stations, no smell, no maintenance. Short enough to bring up to your apartment in the elevator, light enough to throw on the back of your RV.  You can store it anywhere you can shove it, on its side or even upside-down.

Fair point, the “don’t recommend channel” feature seems to only apply to recommendations, not search, so topic and name searches will still show the videos. If you want to block the channel from appearing completely, it looks like a browser extension is the only way.

Damn, the irony in this post is strong, I suggest you grab a history book. Government subsidies in fossil fuels and automotive groups, including construction of privately-run fuel distribution points, have historically been one of the spendiest areas when it comes to subsidies, aviation (read defense) and agriculture…

This is what I’m driving now, and I’m perfectly happy with it.

The majority of americans may own SOME stock, but the richest 10% of households own 84% of publicly traded shares. For low income americans who own stock (less than $35k HHI), the median account is less than $10,000. So a 20% runup in the stock market does nothing to repair the damage of even a month or two out of a…

1. Yeah, you’re probably right. I am going to take the Tesla on a nice long road trip, but we know that’s possible, so it’s not much of a push.

2. Living in a society means living in a society. Doing your best shouldn’t be looked down upon. Also, we can assume that the power grid can and should be cleaned up, which is…

‘those who work forces, same 1s burn crosses’

ok look. as a disabled person, I fully agree with her in this but this shit:

“Yes, I am fully aware that this is a film, and these are Witches. But Witches are essentially monsters,” she continued.

There are a lot of practicing witches in this country and it’s their religion. Can we *not* shit on other marginalized…

I have a cousin who spent decades working at the CDC in the infectious diseases department and knows a great deal more than most people on the planet when it comes to pandemics. He has firsthand knowledge of what went down.

Although this story is a major part of the electric car's downhill slide to oblivion, don't forget their eventual abandonment by delivery trucks as well, who were also a major proponent of Electric vehicles. Two things really conspired against the electric car in the late nineteenth century. First was the increasing…
