You are so right. If the same analogy were used on earth just for the liquid water already present and not counting the south polar ice cap, the earth would be covered to a depth of maybe more than 3000 meters of water. That 1.5 meters is what we get just out of global warming a hundred years from now.

I suppose, if they made a concerted effort to destroy the credit of enough people at once, it could have a destabilizing effect on the country.

Yes they are.

I suppose they do make it easier to preserve the exterior look of the vehicle without expensive bodywork needed after you hack holes in the car. All the hacking is on mostly unseen areas.

It is a sad life that can’t find fulfillment without external stimulus.

This narrative that Uber devised “a way to flout labor laws that otherwise provide a livable wage for workers and driving down costs through any means necessary” is utter bullshit. When Uber was just getting started, absolutely no one said that. What they said was what a marvel it was how Uber was enabling gig work.…

It is probably overstating things to say that graph represents what Exxon believed. It was likely one prediction amongst many and hard to choose to believe at the time given it hurts their business model. Most people have a hard time believing in a call to change that hurts themselves.

Do you think they would initiate projects like the RC or LC, today, knowing those sales numbers?

What modern car feels most similar?

No minimum wage law is in harmony with capitalism. Social support programs can be at harmony with capitalism.

“Some people did something” is easily as offensive as many of Trump’s more inflamatory and poorly spoken and chosen words also taken out of context and with willful misrepresentation of the topic. They were poorly chosen words. Cop to it and move on rather than double down on them.

The Elantra is a serviceable appliance and not a bad place to sit but insipid to drive. Throttle response is horrid and handling is uninspiring. The Jetta feels stiff and tight. Not like a rock hard sports car or anything, just like everything is very solidly connected. The engine was responsive with torque where you…

I bought the Jetta used for my daughter with an I5. I drove it for a bit and liked it enough I bought a GTI for myself. The Elantra inspires nothing like that for me to consider a Stinger or a G70 (though I am sure they are entirely different.) The Jetta very clearly was designed in a country where people are expected…

Had a Jetta, replaced it with the equivalent Elantra. Driving experience is miles apart.

Easily accessing frequently used symbols for technical writing and programming is one good use of it.

Because people actually drive their Ford GTs.

I think the Rivian has portal axles. They might be hard to see, tucked up high. I think I read that Rivian is using F150 bodies to disguise their test mules, so this would make sense.

Is that an F150 or a F150 body on a Rivian chassis? I think I read that Rivian is using F150 bodies to disguise their test mules.

Weasel words. Poorly worded question if a definitive answer is required. He didn’t actually say, “no, we will never sell an electric version of a Beetle.” Nor can he, he is a CEO, and would be irresponsible to disclose future product plans before they are ready. You ask these questions on the off-chance you will get…

And, instead of having power storage dangerously stored on each car, let’s deliver it to them via conductors and keep the power store above ground where it can easily be serviced and doesn’t present a hazard to the passengers.
