An addendum to that thought: UAW has become the Kleenex of unions, so much so that if someone actually CAN name one, it’s UAW. Thus, the shady shit UAW gets caught doing gets inappropriately laid on all unions.

Maybe I’m an idiot, but at least I’m not an ignorant one pretending cameras aren’t ubiquitous.

Minor point, but why do you keep using “Soviet” to refer to Russia?

This makes an excellent point: why the hell are cars so long these days?

You’re going to have a lot easier time scoring consistently when you only offer two models than when you’re BMW, which offers, like, 89.

I fail to see how: you’re just as public and visible inside a car as you would be to a passerby walking on the sidewalk.

Agreed, but my point is that C keeps getting lauded in tech blogging as the thing that’s going to replace all ports (and has on the 2018 Macbooks) so given Google’s use of Macs, I’m surprised that a C version hasn’t been mentioned yet

So far I’ve not found a USB-C version of this, which, if we’re to believe tech media, is the future of all devices.

How is that different from live, internet-accessible streaming cameras of public places like cafes or street intersections? Example:

So your complaint is that a small displacement, low horsepower engine from a small car, designed in the late 80s has a different testing methodology than a big engine for a vehicle built well after a decade of changing laws, technologies, and emissions requirements? Their methodology sounds extremely fair.

millions of people that simply don’t want to take the only kind of job they can get.

Short version was this Capt. Marvel came first, got in trouble from DC for being too much like Superman, stopped publishing, and then was bought by DC. Marvel started their Capt. Marvel, and when DC tried to revive their series, copyright issues led to marketing as Shazam instead.

Except BAC .2 isn’t a “whoo I’m a little tipsy”, it’s “Full blackout and I will choke on my own vomit” drunk. This guy was a hazard to himself and potentially others by sheer fact that he’d had a ludicrous amount to drink.

I had a hard time finding a BAC chart that went up to around 270lbs, but a guy that heavy has consumed a heck of a lot more than 10 drinks in a short time period to blow .204. The lesson would be “don’t drink that much

The makeover continues inside, where Toyota has added a red stitching, a new steering wheel

Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat, but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.”

If anything, it becomes an economy of scale problem. For one thing, CA has many of the major ports that cars get imported through, so now each port will have extra work sorting and distributing cars for CA and cars not for CA. That means more trucks, more paperwork, more overhead, more man hours.

Seems absurd, but its what COULD happen should you not shut this shit down NOW.

Legit question: I think I saw that most of the garbage patch is a few feet deep (due to buoyancy) but spread out over something like the size of Texas. Let’s say we could find a way to consolidate it into, say, the size of Manhattan. Could we just get a one-time exception to the test weapons ban and nuke it?
