Unfortunately our founding fathers didn’t have the foresight to write sawzalls into the constitution… ergo we cannot have catalytic converters and we must eliminate all property taxes, dismantle the Department of Transportation and the EPA.

If VW and BMW really wanted to get into a price war, they would have the cash in hand to sell cars at a loss until Tesla implodes, and they wouldn’t even get into big trouble with shareholders if the owner families were in on the plan.

It’s so funny that so many humans can look at a picture like this and yet still think so small.

Silly humans fighting about politics. Pointless.

“However, he told the outlet that his experience at Instagram changed his perspective, making him believe an accurate and tailored feed was possible. “Throughout the years, what I saw was that every time we use machine learning to improve the consumer experience, things got really good really quickly,” he said.”

GOTG was the 10th movie, and it only seems like it wasn’t a deep pull now because it worked so well.  It was a crazy deep pull at the time.

I didn’t see it as ALS at all.

By the time of those scenes where Frank is clearly symptomatic, he’s both in their late-40s/early-50s. By that age, ALS has either rendered the sufferer almost completely infirm (think Stephen Hawking), or they’re long dead (think Lou Gehrig, who died within 2 years of being symptomatic,…

You are all wrong, NWO was a Hulk Hogan/Scott Hall/Kevin Nash thing.

that strawberry scene totally smacked me back of the head with some emotions.

I understand that China has the ability to exert some measure of influence through TikTok. However, banning TikTok means taking significant financial resources out of the American economy. You don’t have to love them, but “Influencer” - capital I - is a viable job title in the 2020s. Ignore the big earners - the…

I’m in agreement. “The average residential electricity rate in the U.S. is 16.09 cents per kilowatt-hour (kWh).” [1] A Nissan Leaf uses about 30 kWh/100 miles [2]. Let’s say charging efficiency is around 85% [3] so it takes about 35.3 kWh to replenish the battery. That means the “fuel” cost for 100 miles would be…

Yeah. Dan Harmon. He says his name right up there.

Money is a helluva drug.

Kind of like Tesla did when they changed their prices overnight, right?

I mean, maybe if Roiland had actually listened to his Poopybutthole, he might not have doubled-down on being a creep. Ooo-wee.

They should do the “voice switch” in an episode that starts with Jerry accidentally interrupting a Rick experiment, causing the whole family’s voices to get messed up - Rick and Morty have weird-but-comical voices, Beth and Jerry switch voices, etc. Then at the end, Rick and Morty have the new voice actors’ voices,…

As a retired oncologist, let me assure you that the phrases “relatively safe and tolerable” and “reasonable safety profile” mean something COMPLETELY different to my former colleagues than they do to everybody else.

The Fuego threw me because I first thought it might have been a Euro or south American spec. I’d never seen one in the US with flush composite headlights, but a close look reveals those are sealed-beams but with covers. Aftermarket covers were a thing in the 80s, so it’s plausible. I also remember Fuegos as having…

I love how people say things like “there are still the dirty parts about EV’s no one wants to talk about” when literally every article and comment thread about EVs is chock full of misinformation about how batteries can’t be recycled (they can), or how lithium and rare earth mining is uniquely harmful (it isn’t), or…

What is up with the fucking 4 foot beds? I own an old Tacoma with a 6 foot bed and its SUPER useful.... and I use ALL 6 feet of that bed. Anything shorter would be useless. Its like every time one of these small trucks come out, they get it about 75% of the way. Make it a 6 footer? Take my money. A 4 foot bed? What’s…

Hear me out... small electric pickup - shaped like a triangle.
