Technology and science are not the same thing.

The cost of doing business.

Income-based fines should really be more commonplace.

And also that many contracts to improve on IT are performed by the lowest bidder.

One hockey puck topped with ketchup, please.

They likely just sent it to anyone above a relatively low karma threshold desperate to get any sorry fool to buy their stock.

I’ve purchased a few things after listening to him yell at me for 20 minutes. The reviews are useful, but I wouldn’t watch for pleasure.

Without extortionate extra fees either. I recently wanted to crossplay Overcooked on my PC with a couple friends on my PS4. “Buy PSPlus for only $100+ to play this game online!” Yeah, fuck off.

Hope you got your kool-aid folks, there’s going to be a national shortage caused by this one.

I think it was Freakonomics that did a series on it? But yeah, quite an interesting and convoluted series of events.

Calm down. I agree with you, I’m just saying mass shootings are only a small part of the gun violence issue, and would add that it’s unlikely that government intervention would do much to impact overall instances of bullet contact, as many of the firearms are already unlawfully obtained in the first place.

I was on mobile too, just on Firefox with ublock.

How are brakes needed more regularly? Most of the braking a normal driver would do is done by the motor(s). Sure, the vehicle is heavier than a similar sized ICE counterpart, but I would guess a typical driver is using one-pedal driving whenever possible. Anecdotally, I have an Ioniq 5 and brake almost exclusively with regen, whether it’s I-pedal, or shifting between the four levels of regen when decelerating from higher speeds.

I just went on my annual visit. I’m not sure if it was ublock or what, but it was actually a fairly pleasant experience with no ‘sponsored’ content. Reminded me of the Facebook of old. Accessed through the browser, of course. I don’t want that cancerous app on my phone.

EV maintenance cost is quite low compared to ICE vehicles. Brakes and suspension are probably the biggest wear items, but brakes have comparatively less wear because of the regen braking.

I’m not American, but have had a great interest in Malcolm Gladwell’s Revisionist History podcast and his dive into America’s past and current issues with gun violence. In the last episode I listened to, he interviewed several trauma surgeons, and they said they would likely not see a dent in gunshot victims arriving to trauma centres if mass shootings were to end tomorrow.

That, and the gun violence epidemic has been masked by improvements to trauma care. Essentially, gunshot wound treatment has improved so much that the reduction in murder rate can be significantly attributed to that. If victims survive, the crime is classified as aggravated assault and separate stats aren’t even kept by PDs for the number of people shot versus other weapons. So, there’s actually very poor to no available information on the prevalence of gun violence if the people who were shot survive.

But checks and balances!?!?!!1

Or @pm.me, even shorter

The fuck is a scathing latter?

Right, they make absolute sense if you don’t have access to cheap natural gas. I’m worried for the day NG prices rise though. It’ll be a double whammy for those of us in SK with the vast majority of the heating in the populated south provided by NG and a grid that has a significant portion produced by NG. You’ll see the increase even if you aren’t heating with gas.
