What a mess. Intel should be out in front of this, but they are going to kick the can down the road and hope some of the problem goes away. No system integrator has the infrastructure to handle replacing vast numbers of CPU's and entir

I was a scrub level skier, and had mine sharpened a few times a season. Slopes varied between powder and crusty, wind blown snow. Hitting crusty snow at mach 17 on dull skis, and you'd end up doing a high performance uncontrolled fligh

NIMBY's and clueless, greedy politicians. Here, the county owns some land that it is going to put 100 houses on. They are going to put houses that cost 3x more than the locals can afford. Why? More money from property tax, and to hell

"CX employees are now expected to live within 60 miles of one of seven "hubs" — Atlanta; Salt Lake City; Reno, Nevada; Dallas; Austin; Chicago; or Pittsburgh." All of these places are aggressively poor choices.

The end result will be productions going dark and staying dark. As with newspapers, turn everything off, go home and stay home. It is already happening in Hollywood. Massive bloodletting and unemployment as tens of thousands of jobs simply

Aerodynamics is one thing, complete lack of crash safety is another. Aside from the RV's built on truck and van chassis, these things explode into a million bits in a head on collision. The vehicle's crumple zone is your face.

There is noise, it just isn't a loud as here in the US. Germany has vehicle noise emissions standards, including the tires. Further, Germany doesn't have nearly as many large trucks and SUV's, which typically have fairly loud

Even worse? Pop the hood on one and marvel at all the empty space. Those giant front ends are purely for looks.

A reasonable well optioned truck is $75,000. People who can afford to spend that are immune from high gas prices.

Not useful at all. Go back in time and connect it to a network full of infected hosts, and you'll have a very different experience. Why is it such a surprise that a machine won't get infected when the common vectors of attack for

Where I used to live, it cost $7k to get a plot of land ready to build on. Today, that cost is $70k and 6months to 1y to get past all the permits and paperwork. And then having to deal with a governing body that doesn't understand how

The problem also: major cities have simply stopped reporting crime at all. Further, crimes go unreported because police have stopped responding to many of them. And then you have the other neat new thing of all races being listed as white.

This county owns land which it is going to develop for housing. Their goal? $450k houses because that will bring in more tax revenue than the same number of affordable homes. Clown world indeed.

I've seen a few towns where everything shut down. Supermarket, all restaurants, gas stations closed because people working those jobs can't afford to live there at all. They even thought about bussing people in, but they had 0 tak

It will do nothing of the sort. People with no bar exam will not get jobs at reputable firms. People who do not possess the capability to pass the bar exam will not have the chops necessary to earn a decent living.

Good luck getting a good job as a lawyer without passing the bar exam. No reputable firm will hire you, and you'll have an expensive degree that has no value.

The new Lexus GX would like to have a word with you. It is no better than my Highlander. The reason is price. They keep the price low by skimping on interior plushness while keeping the mechanicals reliable.

In Honda's defense, they've recognized their quality was slipping, and have been moving to fix these issues. Their transmission issues stemmed from the ZF built 9-speed, which has been a problem for every car manufacturer to use i

Generally, Toyota buyers don't like to stick out in a crowd. They do have a new, reasonably priced Land Cruiser coming out, which is styled after their older, very popular Land Cruisers. I would'nt be surprised if they come out wi

I haven't heard of that, either. I've worked with two of the region's highest volume Toyota dealerships, and neither one cared how I paid them.
