I fuckin’ hates de-gens.

Those Cybertrucks think they are tough but they are 10 ply. Roberta Bondar wouldn’t be caught dead riding around in one.

On the one hand, the average worker everywhere needs to take this moment to push back hard for their rights as the billionaires all fly in to kiss the ring and the Trump administration loads up the government with grifters (while does nothing to avoid self enrichment). In a time where CEOs are getting more protection…

For the moment, EU and California upcoming regulations mainly; after that, EVs (at scale) are cheaper to build even with today’s technology compared to creating a new engine. As EV tech gets cheaper, it will only get to be more of a no-brainer for manufacturers. Rarely in a capital expenditure heavy industry can you…

Not an expert, but just googled and this demolition would probably cost more than the planned investment and would be the largest building in the West to ever be demoed (and that is just the central tower, not the other 5).

Its just the Streisand effect; nobody noticed before, but once it was brought up everyone noticed now, including things that aren’t.

Kinda looks like my Camaro with t-tops.

Its been a bit of everything; right after their IPO they were (over)valued at like 100Billion and its fallen off by 90% since then. Stocks aren’t everything of course: sales are steady by not growing rapidly, their products are all high quality but also high priced and their entry level/less expensive models are still…

The Parthenon was a Christian church for a hot minute, so maybe its just situational irony.

I think its important to separate the good people who work pretty much everywhere with the malevolent monsters at the top sucking all capital into their maws and funding politicians to protect their wealth into perpetuity. For instance! A friend of mine is a manager at a Chick-Fil-A and he is the nicest person…

I don’t know how to tell you but...there are some excellent Nobel prize winners who swear pretty frequently in their works. Not to mention literally the entirety of the Irish nation which is more articulate in English than many English and (certainly) most Americans.

What kind of lib are we talking about? Classical liberalism/libertarianism?Or like neo-liberalism? Or are you talking about social liberalism?

I mean, if you are going to claim territory, it’d probably pay to understand how boundary lines are drawn and that contracts have words in them that mean things.

I’ll be interested to see how Tesla closes out its book for the year. When Elon was just a weirdo, I could see people not taking notice (per my own words, “nobody outside of car people can even tell you the CEO of Ford, let alone his views on politics”); now, post election, I’m wondering if this puts a real dent in…

At this point I feel like it is fair to start the countdown clock on brands that won’t survive the next 10 years. Like half of the land of misfit toys (Stellantis) is probably on the block, Nissan, Rivian, etc. Unless the EU, Brazil, and N.A. all say no to Chinese EVs, we are all going to be in for a world of playing…

I enjoyed my 4c while I had it; it had....a lot of character.

I’m going to really miss these when they are gone; hopefully if things go ass over tea-kettle some OEM will buy them and they can stick around.

1st: The US relies on 1) exploitation of the global south and 2) free trade agreements with low COL countries to exist the way we do.

The problem with many conservatives is that the part of the equation (“to exist the way we do”) needs to go away before you can tackle the other items and reshore, but voters who are…

Yea that isnt the official logo haah

JaGUar!
