I mean, he’s driving a charger soo…

Thank Mr skeltal!

Started out with kettle corn and cider. Breakfast of champions! Hope you enjoyed, the garden displays were quite lovely this year.

Someone else went to the state fair I see.

Very much a ymmv, but I use Firefox on windows and Linux, don’t really have an issue with it. Hope it helps!

Maybe try an extension like chameleon? I’ve had it on with ublock when using YouTube for a bit, makes it seem like I’m using chrome to YouTube.

It’s more calculated betting, even if done at a government scale.

They’ve begun to realize how they’re kinda impossible to really make a profit off of.

Dang, you weren’t kidding with the price of a used x220 (I have an x230 that I got for less than I’m currently seeing on ebay a while back, and the only thing that really made me switch to something newer was the screen). Maybe a newer thinkpad or an hp elitebook? I think as long as you have something newer than a 2nd Gen I series chip, there really shouldn’t be an issue if you’re basically just using it for text processing. If you start with models with ddr3 and sata drives you should be able to get very cheap replacement parts for a while yet.

Truly erasing the carbon footprint for hundreds of miles around!

So is it Copper or sulfate?

Nice.

Sounds about right. Most of the Japanese manufacturers have had to put a higher amount of effort on reliability, in large part due to Toyota’s amazingly strenuous testing of reliability before they even consider dropping a new product on the market. As a bit of a bonus to that, once reliability was upped, making more sporty cars could be achieved because you had the budget to change around the driving dynamics of a car without making it inherently unreliable. The Miata is probably the best example of this, as while each generations drivetrain usually isn’t too special (outside of being high revving), it manages to handle well and be reliable while doing so.

I don’t even think it’s a question of innovation, more just perceived reliability. A large part of the reason Mercedes and other German brands were considered high quality was that they were more reliable than a lot of other brands on the market, while being good to drive. That isn’t really the case anymore, and Toyota and Honda have that basically cornered that market to the point that it’s an outlier to fine one that isn’t reliable.

Which is a repackaging of the red panic.

I kinda suspect it’s the latter. I drive around pretty randomly for fun, and the amount of Trump signs and flags in yards is arguably higher than it has ever been. That being said, I think it’s pretty telling they rarely have a Trump/Vance sign, so if Trump were to step down they’d probably lose pretty heavily.

I hope so, but I have my doubts. I’m in greensboro now, and I see his signs pretty often. My only hope is that Trump supporters actually listen to what he says, because they tend not to actually like him when they look into what he says (had at least one coworker that’s a trump supporter express support for him, but when he actually looked him up, he didn’t like him that much).

Heating/cooling probably, but renovation of older structures is generally expensive and complicated, whereas grid batteries can scale until newer construction (which should be more insulated) can keep up. It’s not an either or, but more of both that will compliment each other as time progresses.

But then you’re just having another system for storing energy, which probably isn’t very easy to implement. An easier solution if you don’t want to use grid batteries is just to improve housing insulation and schedule heating/cooling for non peak hours, so that you are just using less energy overall. The problem in my mind is that that would require a lot of renovation on older homes, which is just more expensive and slower than adding grid batteries. Don’t get me wrong, those changes should be mandated for newer housing, but expecting it to be implemented in older housing probably isn’t gonna happen.
