IF Trump actually wins the election then I hope Biden goes full scorched earth with the powers that the SCOTUS granted. He’ll have nothing to lose at that point.

Yup. Blocks ads on our iPhones, iPads, streaming services, etc. Between that & uBlock Origin on our laptop browsers we hardly ever see ads.

I’ve heard of all sorts of issues with my fiber ISP (Verizon Fios) rolling out IPv6. It’s been years that they’ve been slowly rolling it out for testing in a few places. There’s virtually no useful documentation on their website about it. And it’s still not available where I am.

Not to mention that lots of malicious attacks occur late at night or on weekends in an attempt to delay getting noticed. My company has rotating on-call schedules for our security, devops, and even engineering teams. I’ve had to hop on late at night or on weekends to help mitigate attacks. Luckily my employer is really good about letting folks take a day or two off after such events.

Some of us drive 48-wheeled vehicles.

Ask Jeeves was a “question answering service” back then. They had a staff of human editors who curated answers to popular questions. Nothing they answered back then was done via search.

Source: I worked for a search engine startup in the 90’s that was acquired by Ask Jeeves when they realized they needed a true search technology since human editing wasn’t scalable.

Ask Jeeves was doing this before Google existed…

💩

Yeah, but enough of a turn-off that they will actively vote for Biden when the time comes, and not just sit it out or cast a third party protest vote?

I’m just curious, but what type of content would you be watching on YouTube?

I literally use it almost exclusively for how-to styles of videos. I had to replace the throttle cable on my riding lawnmower last year. I found an awesome step-by-step video. Stuff like that…

I’m looking forward to seeing how the judge addresses all these rants at his sentencing.

Government won’t allow him to go to a prison. It would be a liability for nation security.

In what way? He’s already bragged about and shown off countless classified documents, and potentially given or sold some of them to US adversaries. If he’s put in prison he’ll likely be put into protective custody for the safety of both him and his guards.

Foreign Entities would go crazy for the chance to Epstein him. It would de-stabilize the US for a decades

I find that extremely hard to believe. He’s a private citizen and now a convicted felon on top of that. He may have a small but rabid fan base, but even if he died under unusual circumstances it wouldn’t destabilize the US. The worst it might do is further fracture the GOP, but given what it’s turned into over the past decade I don’t see that as a bad thing.

So prison it is then!

I really hope Judge Merchan goes hard on the sentencing due to trumps public actions afterwards.

Not just afterwards, but during as well. How many times was he held in contempt, warned, etc. And after Trump got nervous that he was going too far, he enlisted others to carry on attacks against the judge, prosecutors, jury, etc.

IMHO (not a lawyer) I think the judge would be well within his rights to throw the book at Trump for all his behavior.

He certainly won’t need it if incarcerated. Prisons have a lot of experience segregating high profile prisoners for the safety of both the inmate and the guards.

Even if one does have money for EV, charging stations are extremely rare and you WILL find yourself stranded if you attempt any long drive unless you have a “old” combustion engine car or an hybrid both affected by the higher prices.

Bullshit. My wife and I did a two week road trip up/down 2/3 of the east coast in our Tesla last year, and not once did we have a problem charging. Half the hotels we stayed in had level 2 chargers that didn’t cost us anything to use, and Teslas SuperCharger network was perfectly reliable. We also found more than one parking garage with free chargers while parked.

Now that NACS has been adopted as the open SAE J3400 standard and most EV manufacturers have announced support for it, the rollout of more third party fast chargers should start ramping up soon. And with Tesla open up Superchargers to other EVs it’s getting easier and easier to charge.

As long as those people actually vote for Biden and don’t waste their vote on a protest…

Just support contactless payments. Then people can just tap their phone, Apple Watch, credit card, etc.

This sounds to me like a solution looking for a problem…

That’s an optional software upgrade. It’ll cost you $12.95 a month.

Tesla has both a gigafactory and a Supercharger factory in mainland China. Any semi-competent CEO would recognize that publicly advocating for tariffs on China would have a good chance of backfiring. China could easily turn around and slap 100% tariffs on everything coming out of those two factories in retaliation.
