It depends how you define kids. If it’s over 15 or so it probably gets to count as a terrible idea. If you’re that old you probably have a reason for your phone being on silent, like you’re in class and don’t want it ringing in the middle of a lesson.

Almost certainly yes. To keep it on the OP would have to put tasker into the system folder and then disable root permanently. Either way they can probably just disable the app.

You know that electric cars now are different to those though. In the late 19th and early 20th century cars weren’t exactly fast regardless of how it was powered. By the 60s ICE cars and the infrastructure required for them were commonplace in Western countries. The 80s and 90s were basically all limited production…

No, not at all. The model 3 is meant to be Teslas entry into the affordable luxury car market but the company aren’t attempting to make cars that rival a Nissan Leaf.

That doesn’t show it was the main reason. It shows it’s an advantage but the article also listed this allowed Apple to include a larger battery, equipment for the pressure sensitive home button, camera improvements and processor improvements.

In the real world unlimited anything does not exist. I realise I forgot to divide by 8 when converting the rate to the amount of data but your example seems to suggest unlimited data isn’t true because the bandwidth restricts you where as all it means, according to wikipedia, is that they won’t charge you for going…

The article said it doesn’t have a sim slot so probably not no.

No that’s extremes on both sides.

That’s what random articles guessed but no, probably not. Samsung, Sony and various other companies have had water resistance for years while still having a headphone jack.

1 mbps could be a different amount of data depending on how long you’re using it. If you use data for 5 seconds at 1mbps you’ll use 5mb of data where as if you use data for 50 seconds at 1mbps you’d use 50mb of data.

It says a lot that when the Jalopnik Staff go to Europe, Fancy Kristen goes to Italy driving a Ferrari and David goes to Romania and looks at Old Dacias and ex soviet cars.

Yeah, it definitely is worth explaining, I didn’t know it was different until another commenter pointed that out. It just would seem strange to a Briton to hear people brag about 30mpg on one of their cars when even our people carriers get above 30 on city driving.

I used the US gallon in my conversion, hence why I specified US gallon over just Gallon or Imperial Gallon. I also mentioned the UK does have very high taxes on petrol. We also have those high taxes on diesel although that isn’t really relevant to Petrol prices.

I’m sure it is, but I’ve only read the article and aren’t aware of anywhere near as much controversy over Finland or Thailand, politically at least.

Taiwan seems a fairly complex country to attempt for pre-teens to attempt to learn about. I’m not saying it’s not worth learning about but it seems like a lot of interesting things about it require you to be able to understand quite a bit of politics.

Yeah, I’d say that’s true. In general people don’t tend to think long term on purchasing decisions. The car manufacturers know this but also know that the EU and Ca require better efficiency anyway and while some companies may completely redesign or omit an American car from the Euro Market they’re unlikely to want to…

That way they can’t have one automaker ignoring everything and undercutting the competition.

I think most Automakers know many people don’t care about efficiency once it makes a car more expensive than competitors. If everyone has a level bar then the automakers can still produce & design engines that may be a little more expensive but more fuel efficient.

They can but fuel efficiency doesn’t sell cars and since most of them probably have to make similarly efficient cars for the Euro Market and Carb States the main automakers would benefit from forcing everyone to.

The automakers have to make cars just as efficient if not more so for other markets and California. Some may build different cars for the Euro/Asian market but I doubt any of them want to make a seperate car for the Californians and neighbouring states that also follow CARB.
