Personally, I think it is cool. Especially with what modern “architecture” is. Now cost and speed are preferenced, so we get a whole lot of the same thing over and over. I am also a big mid-century modern fan when it comes to houses though. 

Jesus, it was a working CyberTruck; two decades and change before the non-working one!

If you have to project that you are a bad ass, your not.

I don’t have a pair of truck nuts, a punisher sticker, a Thin Blue Line decal, or a red MAGA cap.

If I have a backyard BBQ for my family, so I have to serve Corona beer?

“Ultimately, says Fresolone, if things escalate or otherwise go awry, the officer’s touch to the car’s taillight will have left a fingerprint in a place where investigators would know to look for it.”

“You know, one day honest citizens are going to stand up to you crooked cops!”

I see them all the time in my area because of how cheap they are (and how generous they are extending credit).

Shorter: to be an asshole.

“Above maintenance workers” hmmmm I’m not so sure of that. I know a lot of maintenance workers who just brush off smaller job injuries, and 2 who have been badly injured by machines. I know 1 former auto tech classmate who was killed working on a heavy machine during the oil boom. I'm thinking we're under reporting. 

So it’s to terrify and intimidate. Like most cop behavior.

What’s kinda funny is that they mention bite marks in that article, but the “science” of bite marks has been called into question just as much.

The old stereotype was “tapping” your taillight w/ the baton & saying “sir, you have a broken taillight”.

A lot of the forensic “sciences” boil down to some dude’s Mark 1 eyeball. Forensic firearms examination (along with other tool mark comparisons) is sketch as well.

That far south? The Sun/Time.

It’s not that he’s a fuddy duddy - he is, but it’s tangential to this issue. Look at his stance on crypto - when he first started talking about it, it was clear that he recognized it as basically a pyramid scheme, and his old person’s skepticism of newfangled stuff came through loud and clear. But then he discovered…

There’s one small thing at least in the US, called an ANCIENT electrical grid. Sure, let’s go all electric everything and not touch/improve/protect the grid. Maybe throw in moving everything to satellites too (which totally aren’t surrounded by space junk and/or vulnerable to attack). What could go wrong? Sigh.

Making gas $1.50/gal would certainly derail an EV revolution. The one’s who already have them won’t switch, but there would be no real incentive to switch either...But I mean gas won’t ever get that low again.

He let the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers out of prison. He can just tell them to shoot everyone driving an EV and sales will collapse immediately.

The idea that he was trying to do anything was laughable. They just identify wedge issues and campaign on them. Then he signs a bunch of executive orders in the first week and spends the rest of the time watching TV, golfing, Tweeting, and insulting reporters.
