I agree with the idea of small communities being interconnected with a massive distribution of public transit. I would love to walk everywhere from my daily necessities, but still making it easy to get to larger social centers for other needs. I think that should be the goal we strive for as a society.

Not what I said, but go ahead and make your absurd conclusions. Just for the record, I'm 100% for public transportation, EVs, renewable energy, and getting off the fossil fuel tit.

If we're ever going to pull people along the path to that future, we have to accept and acknowledge the exceptions. Not all the time, but don't ignore it like most articles I've read on the topic. I believe division occurs when people feel they are being ignored.

It shouldn't. There should be acknowledgement of the exceptions.

You summarized perfectly the problem I see with the "fuck cars" crowd. They never acknowledge the need for cars in some cases. America's population centers are definitely large cities where public transportation SHOULD be championed, but there has to be an acknowledgement of the rural population (around 15% in America I believe) where cars are a necessity.

I enjoyed it, but did have mixed thoughts about it. It's a good "whodunit", I liked the main character, and the setting was unique, but didn't really understand the appeal of her love interest or his character in general.

One funny thing I noticed is they did a really good job of being realistic about how hacking could actually be accomplished, but on the flip side sounded like a CSI episode any time they talked about it. Like "you hack?", "my hacks are really good", "she's a top tier hacker".... etc....

Look up how she made his son buy back his own letters between him and his father.

Should a port scan by a bad actor be considered multiple hacking attempts or a single hacking attempt?

Another way to think about it: if a burglar tries various windows and doors to find an unsecured opening, is that considered multiple burglary attempts or a single burglary attempt?

Thanks for clarifying.

Old man yells at cloud.

Can't wait to see the Karl Jobst update video for this.

Hahaha, love that you came with receipts. People are extremely shortsighted sometimes and think surviving a few bad years means they'll be around for a while. Companies can take a while to fail and can limp along for years before finally being sold off.

I had the same thought. I always wonder if these types of articles are written with the purpose of sowing negative feelings towards EV in order to maintain the fossil fuel status quo.

EVs are here to stay. Tesla's valuation drop has nothing to do with consumer appetite for EV and everything to do with the fact that they're overpriced, poor build quality, questionable design and engineering decisions, and the abyssal oversold failure of full autonomous driving.

Big Ren and Stimpy vibes. Loved it!

Why does anyone still buy HP?

I said it in other posts and I'll say it again here:

I will game on a Windows based PC, but Linux is a must have on hand held at this time - Windows is too resource intensive, developers are not going to be able to get the same OS optimization out of Windows that they can with Linux.

I haven't found one yet, but I do recommend stamped metal with etched labels for 1 cup and lower measuring cups and spoons. I've replaced a plastic set with metal because the labels had all disappeared from the plastic over the years.

That's awesome. Hope they start to make their way into the mainstream soon. I'm ready to go all-in on electric. Besides the climate, imagine what our cities will sound like with less combustion engines running.

Electric cars need competitive racing like F1 and NASCAR. There needs to be a culture built around the power of electric vehicles to get the muscle car culture to switch. Make electric cars "cool".

Everyone knows warning lights are just ways to get you to pay more money to the dealers and manufacturers for things that aren't important.

Just crank up the radio and put some tape over the lights.

And you've just summed up all religious conflicts.
