    I’ve never once seen or heard of that. Maybe in small town rural family practices? But let's pretend that's the standard. Do you think that there are any people stupid enough not to incorporate that cost into their evaluation of the pay? Even one? I don't.

    Didn’t you know that every criminal still keeps a current license plate and of course they all have insurance and the title of the car will tell you exactly where they will be. Hahaha. The blind ignorance in these comments on this issue is astounding.

    So criminals all remove their license plates and they all drive silver Honda accords. Now what? We just throw due process out the window? 

    What what is your solution? Obviously you must have some ideas if it's so easy. Why don't you tell us?

    Prop proposal is not to just stop when dispatch tells them to. It’s not to engage in chase at all. The natural result of that is lawlessness. It's the only result that will come from that.

    Detective work? How does that play out when everyone just pulls the plates off and over-tints the windows. Since everyone knows you can always just drive away with no consequences, the detective is going to do what?

    It’s common sense not to catch someone who steals someone’s purse or wallet? I don’t think that’s correct. If it’s common sense not to catch someone who steals a purse or wallet - why is it illegal? Shouldn’t the “common sense” solution be making it not a crime?

    What is your proposal to catch someone who doesn’t want to be caught if chasing them isn’t allowed? There is a slippery slope here. If chasing isn’t allowed, how do you enforce laws?

    What other ways? Seriously. What is your proposal to catch someone who doesn't want to be caught if chasing them isn't allowed? 

    I think Toyota knows exactly what they’re doing. Toyota had many opportunities to buy Tesla. Toyota is busy making billions of dollars and all signs point to production ready solid state batteries. 

    Who do you think pays the invoice for professional malpractice insurance? (Hint: it’s not the doctor).

    Help me understand how you’ll ever catch someone, when every time they run you have to stop. Presumably you would also not allow for search warrants? Because people die during those to. In which case, shouldn’t we just get rid of all the rules and laws and make it sort of like the purge? Chicago is not that far off

    Funny you mention that. I bought a boat load of primers a while back. They’re the one component I really can’t make myself in any practical way. The reset of the stuff I can. 100k primers is actually pretty cheap to buy and small and easy to store. So I bought a bunch just on a whim to see if they become a scarce

    There’s more than just mining. Bitcoin also takes an extraordinary amount of energy to simply maintain the ledgers and record transactions. It’ll never be cheap or efficient for transacting with compared to current banking systems and currencies. Looking from Elon’s claimed “first principles” view - bitcoin is a long

    The problem is that it’s not quick or low cost despite what the crypto fans claim. The transaction fees are not low (compared to many alternatives available to all 1st world countries they are very high), and they are not fast (compared to normal banking in or between 1st world countries). They are only low and fast

    It makes sense from the marketing side. You have a brand who’s value is nostalgia to a ever shrinking group of buyers. But those buyers still exist in plenty of volume to continue to sell a few models to. And you know that the dodge brand will never have broad popularity because it’s associated with the aging large

    Like a true bed of Procrustes - we will force your wife’s needs to be met with a BEV! It is our SJW creed. 

    I keep reading from the BEV crows how Toyota is dead, and a dinosaur and will never survive the “EV revolution”.  haha. Toyota’s not stupid. They can build EVs. They will when it’s profitable. 

    Initially that sounds pretty terrible - but then I remember it has 35's. And the extra height kills the aero. 34" tires on my 4R = 17mpg on a good day. 35's with low gearing - I’d be more like 13. So I think it’s probably right where I’d expect, maybe better. The same engine returns 19/24 in the F150. It’s the tires

    If they can - it’ll be financing forever aka lease only.
