“You’ve gotta be in it to win it!” shouts local lottery winner.

I will never watch either again, so I can’t comment on the truth of that statement.

“ as storytellers, we have to kind of serve what the scenes need to be.”

Bet the Germans have a single word for this.

Depends on if they filled the train or not. Remember this train may only be a half dozen cars, no need to drag extra cars along. A chartered train that you’ve filled up isn’t going to cost that much more. That’s why schools charter buses for field trips instead of just buying a bunch of tickets.

Yeah, I was expecting someone to hack a PowerWheels to produce like 4x as much torque (with 4x less battery life)

I see nothing involuntary or covert that can be considered a ‘hack’. I do see an item that has been modified however.

I agree, he should probably protect his kids from the public eye more. He should do a lot of things, in my opinion, that he does not.

The car was also going to depreciate anyway. That only comes up if you need to sell it or it’s totalled while the loan is underwater.

You don’t seem to understand ‘investing’ or ‘opportunity cost’

I don’t think your thought process makes total sense. The car would have depreciated the same amount whether you took a loan or bought it outright. Basically, you paid $835 in installments for the ability to buy a car right away.

Ummm ok? It’s still incredibly inappropriate for someone with no relationship to said child to call them a “pissant” on a regional radio station.

IMO these databases, both public and private, are reasons why we need to really look into updating the in public exceptions to privacy. Those laws were written before modern computer image recognition, and the ability to cheaply store & access massive amounts was practical.

100,000+ miles on my 7 years old Volt so far. I still see many first gen Priuses, as in 2000-2003 era around here, most on the original battery. In other words, these batteries tend to last a very long time...

I think it assumes the persons that have long commutes will buy something else.

Save some of your time by skipping ahead to the 1:15 mark.

It’s that bad. Bear in mind when you’re driving on it with what amounts to a full-size US truck (that’s an old-school Bronco he’s driving) that you don’t know exactly where your wheels are related to the edge. And there’s lots of rough spots to get over.

Please don’t do that. We don’t like open flames in airplanes. If you’re not mature enough to handle a flight sober, just eat the pot instead.

I feel like it’s a bit bothersome how long it takes some drivers to do this when they’re not even using any sort of autonomous driving aids
