I keep asking this same question to myself, “WHO THE HELL IS STILL WORKING FOR TWITTER?”

It depends on how far we EXPECT our devices to be repairable. I mentioned in another thread, people kinda voted with their wallets for devices that are difficult to repair and basically disposable. It seems that the MTBF on most things we buy is very specifically engineered to coincide with people’s desired upgrade…

Unfortunately, as a democracy, we rely too much on voting for politicians and too little on voting with our wallets and brains.

Again, most likely someone at the airport tagged a row of bags wrong (probably like backwards or something) then a courier was called, went to deliver some bags and they were all wrong, so they said screw it, I’m not going to keep delivering bags that i know are wrong.

So, I’m in Florida. I live in a pretty wealthy neighborhood, although mostly because I bought in early. Some of the homes are going for 7 figures, so it’s not a poor area at all. But here’s the thing, my experience from gas stations and convenience stores:

The corner gas station will be fine for a little while, but mostly bigger full-service places, like WAWA and Pilot. Both of which already have a lot of EV chargers and major retail/eatery experiences.

I think expectations *did* change the game for EVs, but now the game is slowly shifting back to where it was.

Excellent, thanks for the input. I’m thinking of the Rav4 Prime. I highly doubt my wife wants a smaller car, like the Prius, for getting the kids around, but I still want it to be PHEV. EV is too much, since my primary vehicle does most of the hard work.

18,000 $100 tickets. Add up the 5 zeros: 18 00000 or 1,800,000

Regardless of the number of stops, miles, time, etc. All I’m saying is that USPS does deliver more and more parcel as it delivers less and less mail.

I doubt they actually saw the team. Investors probably read something about the app being the next big thing so they downloaded it, invested some change, and decided to bet on something they (hopefully) knew was super volatile.

As far as I can see, this is actually really good news. Anyone who was going to pay exorbitant rates for a new or used car already got theirs, the remainder of people are sticking with what they got until prices become more reasonable.

Considering that kind of transport requires special permitting, route planning, escort trucks, and a very talented driver (sometimes a second driver to steer the rear trailer), it absolutely blows my mind that:

That’s actually a good thing because it’s a sign that the market is willing to adjust. If lots are starting to fill up and people are willing to say ‘NO,’ then dealerships are going to have to figure out how to move inventory by making better deals.

I’m inclined to agree, although for some, that lifestyle changed for the better. Charging at home is much more convenient than charging when you’re out, and I’d say most current EV owners are in that category where they hardly use public chargers (except maybe to nab a good parking space at the mall).

The final report, which is expected to be over 800 pages in length...

I was thinking the same. Can’t judge a book by its cover, but I’m willing to bet that a lot of the defense was, “Oh, I didn’t know that was bad...” I’d say everyone was in over their heads.

It’s a bit more complicated than that. For example, the shortest USPS route in the US is only 950ft that serves 281 deliveries. The longest is 183mi that serves about 248 deliveries. Almost the same amount of people. Reading up, a single USPS mail carrier can serve up to 1800 mailboxes on a single route, which likely…

There’s no reason another company couldn’t provide that level of support and continuous manufacturing. Also, it’s super hard to believe that this “award winning” design will last 50-70 years compared to almost everything else that is coming out.

You should throw them through the loop of giving you the crazy good deal with the 20% financing tacked on. Then come in the next day to pay off the entire loan.
