Governor Hot Wheels is already blaming windmills for the future grid problems this summer.

I can’t wait for ERCOT to say that they didn’t expect heat as if June isn’t generally hot here every single year.

So how’s that electrical grid doing, Texas?

I loved my Windows Phone, but as brought up in the article, it just wasn’t compatible with the rest of the “Mobile World”.

No matter where I went, every bank, store, etc would have signs for “Download Our App Today! For iOS & Android”

Couldn’t get my bank’s app for my phone. Couldn’t use any reward programs or digital

Windows Phone still an amazing UI and better than what exists now. The last one I bought was $20 and has an amazing screen. My friends always made fun of me for how little the battery lasted though.

Zune was fantastic, especially the streaming service where you got 10 songs to keep per month. I might dig mine out again, the UI was and still is amazing.

Is it really necessary to list all of the things Musk and his team have accomplished that were “delusional” ... until they weren’t? He is definitely optimistic with his scheduling, but everything he has promised has come to fruition at some point.... albeit late. I agree that the fanboys can be annoying, but they are

That’s a tricky one. He didn’t personally draw out the plans, nor design electronics, write the code, or turn the wrench, but it was his concept that he saw to fruition. And given his physics background, it was probably a lot more grounded in reality than a lot of stuff the late Steve Jobs envisioned—another

Well he figured out how to land rockets back on earth after launching them and figured out how make electric cars and still no one has caught up to him, but go ahead and state he is not very bright.

The truly greedy ones were Ethiopian - they took delivery of the accident aircraft after the preliminary report from Lion Air came out and after the Emergency AD and the FCOM (Flight Crew Operating Manual) updates telling exactly how to handle the problem.

Having been in the construction industry for a few decades and being involved in historic renovations on multiple occasions I’ve come around to the view that most so-called “historical”buildings should be demolished when they become unusable and replaced with something new.

Exactly right. (and this is a separate issue from EC’s politics) The woman basically begged to be sued, so she was. Any artist could, and should do the same.

Mission accomplished imo. This story is getting a ton of attention which means a ton of people now know that they can be sued for trying to sell unauthorized copies of someone else's work. The amount is enough to scare your average person, but [hopefully] not enough to ruin their lives.

Nope. Not buying your sob story. You took out the loans, you knew the repayment schedule, you knew your crappy degree wouldn’t produce a job to pay back what you owed. You also had two years to figure out a repayment plan, refinance, or save for your payments to resume.

Children? How are 18 year olds children? Old enough to vote, old enough to be sent off to war, old enough to smoke/drink in most countries, and old enough to have made a few big decisions already.  Might want to get out of your U.S. bubble every now and then.  They made the decision.  If they had parents, the parents

why stop with student debt? Why should I have to pay off my mortgage, my car loan, my credit card debt. I never went to college. I want my free money too!!

Preach! Seems all cringe worthy news writing here... Tear apart anyone who might try to help. Then suck the a$$ of a snail trail not doing anything to better the quality of anything or anyone anywhere. 

Oh fuck off...

Like a lot of Earther stuff or conservation themed stuff posted here, if whatever effort you are making doesn’t solve climate change/pollution/whatever immediately and forever, you’re automatically a shitty person and should be shunned.

I’m waiting for DeSantis to issue an executive order against complaining about the fetid Florida air
