Best part, it involves entry into a foreign country. One that is actually denying entry to US residents that are not obeying the rules, so it will be interesting to see if she managed to make that car ride. 

lol, thats fantastic! AK only works via air. Its just too damn big otherwise to get around in a timely manner.

I’m sure there are some idiot Libertarians* among them.

I didn’t know Eddy Murphy was racist! AND a member of the 3%-er?

Would a 20hour driving commute satisfy you?

No problem wearing a mask, serve me booze again!

absolutely. anti-science and anti-society covidiots can walk to their destinations for all i care. 

Works for me. If the willfully ignorant monsters (odds they are Republicans: 100%) won’t do the right thing because that’s what conscientious citizens do, then go Pavlov on their dumb asses. If they won’t freely do the positive, then punish them for doing the negative. Then the goosesteppers might learn the error of…

Not only do they not pay enough, they dont educate enough. I worked at a free tax clinic during my senior year of college, anyone under a certain AGI limit could get their taxes filed for free. I cant tell you how many Uber/Lyft drivers we had come in that didnt know they needed to track their mileage/expenses to be…

Except all these package delivery gigs are trending toward the same endgame. On a long enough timeline, and with driver pay trending the same, no “gig” company will survive because the gig workers will eventually find it no longer fiscally responsible to keep burning through their vehicle’s equity for such low pay.…

I agree that the amendment as worded was badly crafted. But that does not mean that one needed to throw the baby out with the bathwater. All that likely needed to be added was a specific number of 1099 workers doing anything for any company to trigger their change to regular employees. And a reasonably low number, as…

1st gear: Uber and Lyft is basically proof that most car owners don’t/didn’t fully understand what their vehicles truly cost them on a per-mile/per-km basis... including things like depreciation. People who think depreciation isn’t real are idiots. It most definitely is real.

Where is the article about this electric vehicle fire:

I agree that the low end housing is going to be the toughest nut to crack. What I do see is that there seems to be a lot of money going to ensure that there is “affordable housing” being built into new construction projects, and those units can easily have the charging points built into them. Retrofitting older units…

“There will be highway rest stops targeted at road trippers.”

Re EV charging: I think the business model will bifurcate into two: 

Agreed. The corporate overhead for those companies is insane.

1st: Of note: Uber and Lyft were running into these labor issues PRE pandemic. Now not only have they burned through their labor pool, a bunch of other businesses appear to have done the same. Why be the meat in an asshole sandwich when you can get paid more to run packages around?

1st and 2nd Gear: I’m pretty sure Uber and Lyft’s original business plans involved having no drivers at all by this point. Scaling up without autonomous transportation being ready seems to be root of most of their issues, including how they treat the (rather inconvenient) people working for them.  Same with Amazon or…
