Did the study include the emissions produced by the extraction and refining of petroleum? In general these types of studies are funded by the petroleum industry and deliberately leave out the “mining process” for the ever so environmentally friendly gasoline. I’ve seen the charts where this is taken into account and…

Where does the author live? I am personally really excited by the Kia EV9, and went to their website for more information. They helpfully have a “chargers near you” map! I thought it was broken, because there were no chargers in my very dense, urban Massachusetts neighborhood. I had to zoom out to a radius of 20…

I would be perfectly fine with those as a compromise for people who are not hunters or law enforcement from owning guns.

I couldn’t put my finger on what it was until I read this article, but you’re absolutely right. The Mandalorian feels like a video game walkthrough. The exception in the last aired episode, was the scene between Din and Bo Katan. it easily felt the most lived in, and natural. It’s the only scene that stuck with me and…

Compared to the other two brands you mention in this article, it is elegant, and certainly doesn’t look like it’d tip over, but my goodness it’s expensive!

You can get an induction range for less than $1000. Having just switched from gas to induction, I had to really dial back my stove accessory game. Did I really need a bluetooth-enabled recipe hunting computer in my cooktop? Once I realized that it was just one more thing that would break expensively, I looked for the…

So in CA you only need the plate on the back of the car? I would never install one of these on the front, because it only takes one misjudge by a family member to crunch that slab of glass against a post, fence, or the back of another car... Let’s just add $700 to what essentially was a repair you could “buff out” if…

The reason trains are stupidly efficient has to do with the friction between the wheels and the rails. Trucks don’t have that advantage.

Ford Flex Limited > 2013 sheet metal. - Practical, twin turbo toaster with a nice ride, power when you need it, and the ability to fit an 8' ladder inside, or on the roof.

It cost way more than $10,000 up front. More like $60,000 if you’re lucky. Drilling wells is not cheap.

Concur, when I was looking into this one of the constraints was how to get the 40' long drilling truck to the location, there could be zero overhead obstructions - no trees, buildings, wires, because the 40' long truck converts to a 60' tall gantry. 

You’re missing the biggest expense for Geothermal if you’re talking about doing it in the suburbs, where it would really shine - Digging the damn wells. I have recently quoted geothermal installs for my Northeast , 120-year-old house. The install involves replacing a forced hot water (baseboard) gas furnace with a…

“Facebook hasn’t said much about the leak, accept that the info was hacked in 2019.” - It’s “except”, not “accept”.

It’s “flesh out” not “flush out” - one fleshes out a plan or design. One flushes out slime, filth, or dirt.

Assuming this page is representative, approximately 50MB per page.

We use Zoom at work, but a client uses Google Meet - there’s no comparison. Google meet is buggy, lacks virtual backgrounds, has poor sound & video quality, and is basically 1 month behind Zoom in terms of managing the increase in traffic. Even MS Teams is better.

It looks like a muscled-up Flex. I’ll take 2!

My 2013 Flex Limited has only 66K on it, so it’s worth about what they’re paying here.

Anyone else read all those ridges as a low-fidelity 3-D print job?

I’m “in the business” and actually, individual information is all the rage. The more I know about you personally, the more I can tailor what you see and the more I can tailor what you read to get you to do what I want you to do (usually buy something). Here’s how it works:
