“It is already a highly sought after vehicle...”

“And these being pre-production prototypes, they are probably just engineers fine tuning the traction control.”

Unfortunately, however, parenting does play a role in childhood physiological development. Sometimes poor diet contributes to a child being over or underweight and/or height, and sometimes that poor diet is due to fanciful but false notions some parents have about nutrition.

Sigh...

“...would have put the modem and router in the garage, to eliminate the latency through that first AP...”

I’d been using powerline adapters to bridge distances in homes for a while with some success, where you use the home’s built-in electrical wiring to span ethernet devices, but the speeds were always underwhelming, on the order of 25-40Mbps. Not horrible, but not great either.

“...corporatization of renting and home ownership.”

You shouldn’t speak so definitively about something you clearly know so little about. Only specific Kia models and trims from specific years are among those with the theft problem, and even among those cars that are being stolen, there are widely publicized fixes for it. Stop fearmongering from a place of ignorance.

I actually think that “worry free” repair plan is a good deal considering the cost of unexpected repairs these days. It is not hard at all imagining a furnace or water heater repair exceeding $600 and having to come up with that whole sum without budgeting for it or having to put it on a credit card at the last…

The other thing, and this is always true but I think even more so now, consider the more “budget” car manufacturers.

As @idiggory says below, “Dawson is going deep into some kind of patient mysticism that just doesn’t feel like the character to me.” I agree and would add that I’ve been immeasurably disappointed by the live action show so far. 

Highly recommend these erasable Pilot FriXion markers for mindmaps. I had no idea erasable pen “technology” had advanced to this point, but these are fantastic!

Opinions differ is true. What’s your maximum movie length threshold? Like, how long is too long for you even if a movie is excellent? 3.5 hours? 4 hours?

What’s funny is that the slightly older geezers like me (50) kept telling the younger folks that there’s no such thing as a new economy or a new way of looking at employment. Not really. In the end, money rules all. Corporate interests trump all.

Maybe he actually, you know, likes going to work? I think he’s allowed. 

Something tells me Mr. De Niro isn’t going to be swayed one way or the other by this blog post.

“Try as they might, they will never be able to wash Mr. Big’s blood off their hands.”

“Nope. The reason they’re failing is because stationary exercise bikes are the most boring and ineffective way to achieve and maintain fitness...”

Hello from the gray!!!!

Lots of common sense being missed here and typical kneejerk reactions. Many municipalities either fully or partially fund charging stations in their areas. They do not however fund gas stations. So that outlay of taxpayer funding to build those charging stations and in some cases the free energy they provide should be…
