Yeah I keep reading articles referring to “Black swan” events and it’s like, no baby, that’s just late-stage capitalism. There’s only so much you can suck out of the husk before the well runs dry.

I’m absolutely shocked that cut-throat capitalism leads to under-maintained equipment, overworked employees, and generally unsafe conditions. Safety be damned! We have profits to maximize! 

I’m surprised they didn’t switch to EV a long time ago. There were already EV karts around when I was a kid. I’m even more surprised that it’s going to take a few years?! to affect this change. I can only assume they’re doing changes to the track itself and maybe the cars won’t even be battery powered but rather be…

“You’re laughing?? Moe literally just hit Curly on the head with a hammer which caused Curly to go whoop whoop whoop whoop really loud and charge at Moe but Larry opened a window across the room and Curly ran out the open window and landed on top of a fruit stall and then started slipping on bananas when he tried to…

I have a 10 year old X5 diesel with 140K miles on the clock and it has been nothing but solid and reliable.  There are no squeaks and rattles, all the electronics work (including the self-closing doors), and it still feels every bit as good as when it was a much younger vehicle.  Compare that to my A7 PHEV which,…

What if it had a “turbo” button like some computers did in the 90s?

It is all those faddy diets, I blame. All that wheatgrass and tofu, that vegan diet. I tell you hwhat man.

No, there’s no evidence tying him to the wrongdoing.

Your headline says “Hertz Is Selling Its Fleet Of Rental Tesla Model 3s For Cheap”. You specify “more than 100" for under 25,000 and their web site shows 356 total Teslas for sale.   This is not “selling it’s fleet”.  

A bit over 100 of the 100,000 they were reported as buying is not "selling their fleet".

I’d call this a risky bet. On the one hand a used Model 3 is good way to get a decent performing EV on the Tesla charger network. On the other hand it’s Hertz so there’s a very real possibility of being pulled over and held at gunpoint because they reported the car stolen.

In our neighborhood fire and police compensation is around $70k, but with overtime many make well north of $100k after overtime. That often involves being in uniform and/or using official patrol cars even while off-duty and working in a private capacity. It’s unethical but overlooked.

Bad guys watch movies too. Can you guarantee that by soaking the box in water, that you wouldn’t set off a potential detonator?

Secondly, assuming that these were legally manufactured but illegally possessed, you’d think that they would be coated or packaged in such a way that they wouldn’t immediately be ruined by…

To be clear, “blow[ing] in place” (BIP) is standard procedure among EOD teams, especially if you can’t guarantee that the material can be safely transported.

Cars in general.  I heard his fathers Ferrari went shooting out the backside of his garage when he was in high school!

Holy cow no. That white car smacked its nose right into the truck. The truck was going at a consistent speed, and that SUV should’ve seen him coming a mile away through the side view mirror. Not only that, he braked into the lane he was changing to — braked in front of a freakin big rig. You don’t just brake-check a…

If you really believe that, you really have no idea how wrong you are.
