Jalopnik typos are low hanging fruit, but I commend the execution

No, it isn’t. The reason that reported positive tests are at their lowest since July is not because actual infections are down.

IT IS BECAUSE MORE PEOPLE ARE AT-HOME TESTING, AND AT-HOME TESTS ARE NOT REPORTED LIKE LAB TESTS ARE!

The CDC literally had to change their guidelines to account for this.  

Entry level sports couples?

I felt a great disturbance in the Deplorables, as if hundreds of voices suddenly cried out in impotent rage and were suddenly placed on the no-fly list. 

i think there is a lot more to this story.  nothing in it makes sense.

I’m hoping he tossed that in so thin-skin Elon will have mercy on him and give his money back.

...But no, he’s probably drinking the kool-aid.

In 2020 I bought a 2013 Mini Clubman S R55 for 8k with 60ish k miles

Assuming an 800 watt system, running for an hour, uses .8kWh of power. Let’s say it’s an 80kWh battery for the EV, so it uses about 1% of the battery per hour of operation (of note that peak power is usually cited, while RMS power is today usage, so it would likely use about 30% less power during actual function).

If my completely technophobic 74-yo mother can use Google Maps on her iPhone just fine, so can everyone else’s. Seriously, she is a menace with anything more complex than a crock pot. One of the old ones with Hi-Lo-Off, not an Instapot. There is absolutely NO way she would have ever figured out the navigation system

The first cohort of Gen X turns 57 this year. 2022-1965=57 So almost 60. I should know, I are one. Starting to think retirement this year.

More likely over 70. My 74yr old mom was the CIO of her company and my father helped me build my first computer in 1986... Kids and their version of computer literate is getting ridiculous.

You children don’t know jack shit about the real world anyway; your opinion is uneducated. 

Over 50???? Gen X is hitting their mid 50's. They invented most of this stuff.

GenX is either over 50 or approaching it.  I have NAV on both of my cars and hate using them.  WAZE is better and also tells me where the cops are... so let’s stop thinking 50 is old.

Way to generalize.

FZR 750 OW01 is the one to lust after

I have a ‘91 K75S, my first bike. I was nervous about all the eloctronics(ABS and FI), but after 100000miles, it still only requires maintenance. I replaced the clutch and rear main seal a few years back. Brakes need rebuilding. Valve maintenance is almost comfortable on a brick. If you don’t mind extra weight, BMWs

We will never have a $25K EV to purchase new. I don’t know what you’ve been drinking this morning.

Just make a simple EV hatchback already and sell it in America for $25,000. I will buy it, I promise.

FB has taken over the selling space in my area. The only people still using CL are dealerships abusing keywords in their hundreds of spam ads, people who swore off Facebook, and people who don't know how to use Facebook. So...not a whole lot.
