Yeah for sure, other than hard points under thin hoods I suspect a lot of 90s cars were a lot safer for pedestrian impacts too. Even things like the Ford Taurus, Buicks, Maximas and Stanzas, Camry and Accords were all smooth low front facias and hoods.
Go get a whole roto-chicken for less at the grocery store! You can probably get a full mashed potatoes and bag of frozen peas and have 4 meals for only a few bucks more.
The 90s gave us some of the most aerodynamic cars (or lowest CoD cars) of all time. We’ve been going backwards since then because styling for aggressive grills and SUV heights makes it impossible to be highly efficient. EVs need very advantageous they can get to increase range in order to sell in the US, so flowing 90s designed are a necessity and a form following function that I can’t deny. I like the new Prius for the same reasons.
I like the new Model Y refresh in person (the 3 less so), because front fascia were never very good looking IMO. The new light bar thing makes it less bulgy and slightly Ramsian (I guess, I can’t remember Dieter Rams making anything aerodynamic though, or really even curved for that matter!). The touchscreen bullshit and Nazi owner will keep me from ever buying one though.
The cyber truck is of course excluded from all this, and should go rot in a scrapyard of bad ideas along with the rest of Elon’s ideas.
I guess the question is how much of their revenue is in cash, and how much is in credit from companies that may go bust and not finish paying Nvidia for what they already built and loaned.
Maybe I’m wrong about how that’s all working.
Out only hope that take being naked X-class will keep him interested long enough to no cancel funding, but not long enough to declare war on the su…
Oh, he thinks we can pull a reverse Dyson sphere to shade the earth enough to reverse climate change now.
Isn’t climate change was just a woke mind virus thing though? /s
And don’t get caught handing out water or snacks.
But 200g of sugar!
Our predominant voting system guarantees a 2 party system. And said 2 parties are needed to change it. They just have to not do anything to keep it. No discouraging of 3rd parties is needed.
In fact parties in narrow elections will promote the 3rd party option to their opposition voters to try and spoil it to win.
The IWW has 8,000 members? How long has it been around?
The UAW has over 300,000. Or the AFL-CIO with 12,000,000 (I know there is overlap there). How do we get those fuckers to strike?
We really need a general retail strike. There is a Retail workers Union of about 60,000, but over 15 million work in retail. What’s that almost 5% of the population? I’m sure Walmart, Home Depot and Target don’t want us finding out about that union though.
Sounds a bit like some smaller US states. Which makes sense when you consider that Switzerland isn’t much bigger Massachusetts or New Jersey geographic and population wise.
Also helps that his plan also happened to coincide with Russia’s geopolitical plan, and China’s incentives for economic dominance.
Because in this thread it’s assumed you already work for a company that matches your donation to charities. So if you have a charity you feel is importance to support, your contribution will be twice as big, it makes sense to support your charity more.
Yes it gives the company for work for a tax deduction, but currently federal taxe revenue is being abused to hurt people and withheld from programs that help them.
I suppose if you work for one of the places supplying ICE, prisons, or the military you should feel bad and stop. Or do the incompetent dance to gum shit up.
But none of the work I do helps any of that.
If they say they match donations and aren’t, check with your charity and say something.
Me too, but it’s only hope for NYC, which doesn’t really help much of the rest of the country as much. Maybe he’ll keep Trump busy, but he’ll probably just use it as another distraction while hurting everyone.
It is hopeful if it signals a trend though, we need it to.
Holding car keys near your car can be too, if the cop wants to arrest you.
Keeping your thumb out helps them reach moral superiority.
Yeah it was just like abusive people who force partners to hug/kiss them in public while beating them at home.
Cocoa commodity prices are starting to fall but retail chocolate prices are expected to remain high for some time.
The prices won’t ever go back down, corpos know they don’t have to, they might give random coupons or sale prices, but once raised, never lowered (unless smaller shrinkflated portions are designed).
That was 10 years before only Nazis used that term, but I take your point.
Yeah 20g is a lot for a serving in most things.
I grew up being told soft drinks were a dessert item, not a regular drink. So we only had it on special occasions mainly. Or at fast food once a week when we were older, sports nights usually, since my mom didn’t have time to cook those nights.
