It sure feels like the Jnik team is already trying method 2 for this committee report.

locals said they’re happy to receive the 99 bombs, and have successfully transported the 92 bombs to the canal blockage. Soon, all 80 nukes will be buried and in place for the big event, when 48 nukes blow and clear a path for the new canal. Confusion abounds, as it appears 20 of the 24 nukes installed had been…

Hmm no dead load applied from collected water on that tarp. -10 points, you get a D on the final exam, putting you in the top 20% of the class, proceed to CE102.

Someone who can afford a two vehicles that hold their value really well so they probably weren’t cheap, the f250 and wrangler, to go with a 2016 leaf and a $30k livewire is exactly who I’d expect to own two EVs. That’s a lot of money tied up in vehicles, and a lot of garage space, even though Georgia real estate is…

I hate the interior, but I’m digging that purple exterior for sure.

Yeah, rebuilding calipers is quite different than swapping rotors and pads. When getting replies to a comment that disagree with you, it can be easy to feel like all the replies are as critical and in the same vein as the worst ones. I didn’t see all kinds of homophobic hate, just dated machoman posturing, but then…

...this is the dumbest slideshow to ever show slides.

It’s almost like within the group of people who enjoy working on cars, there are different people at different stages, who can afford and enjoy different things.

Makes sense as to why they should do regional hubs, but it feels like a dangerous thing for the dealers to let GM do, what with all the direct-to-consumer car sales going on. As for the scarcity itself, though, that sounds more like a part shortage issue.

Getting the second shot on the 9th, going to Moab for the first time on the 21st. Pretty frickin pumped

“I mean, if GM really can’t get Bolts out to as many dealers as it needs to, I guess this sounds like a fine plan. But why the scarcity?”

The edict “have an opinion,” doesn’t mean “have a shitty attitude.”

das what I’m talmbout

“And when you buy/sell a car, the state will inspect the odometer, just like they do today.”

what. they do that because there’s an inspection that has to happen for registration. registering by mail isn’t any fancier - it’s just possible because you don’t have to go through inspections. registering by mail and having an inspection would be worse than registering in person, at the inspection.

...the batteries will cost $20k. Don’t use 1990 car prices to estimate what 2025 vehicles should cost or you’re gonna have a bad time.

the canoo is probably 2-2.5x times more expensive than this is anticipated to be

Two trucks on standby, fire completely contained by facility staff, only caught attention because some smoke escaped?

Uh, then there’s the 25 year olds constantly making and sharing memes about overwhelming anxiety? The most confident people I have to deal with are in their 50's, and they don’t take correction well.

That’s low response, but it’s still a response for a low effort ploy. How long can it actually take to put those slideshows together? The most work is probably just finding accurate images to match the comments. It’s low hanging fruit, but still some fruit
