This is the only approach that will work. Punish all those involved with stiff criminal charges and punishments that include jail time and loss of all personal assets. Avoidable incidents like these would become a thing of the past.

And you are at the mercy of the whims of politicians. One city I lived in, they simply ended public transport altogether. Another city, they rerouted the lines in the poor part of town which made life incredible difficult for the older resi

They don't want cars or even to drive. They have all the creature comforts at home. Big TV's, internet games, and food delivery.

A few tiny shakes out of a salt shaker isn't going to come close to 90mg. Figure about 40mg because I use a very small amount of it when I do use it. I'd have to eat 9 of mine to get the same salt content as a plant burger sold he

IIRC, the company that made those caps used a formula they stole from their competitors.

How about: the energy consumed by 125 million dot-matrix printers printing the Library of Congress every second per second. Fantastical values require incomprehensible comparisons.

Your skepticism is warranted and perhaps a healthy view to the modern approach to what they call science. Labeling people for being anti-vax because they are anti-mRNA vax is cancel culturalism at its peak. Keep in mind that an alarming num

The cost of this blade setup means no one will buy it. Very high cost to purchase and equally high cost to maintain for such a tiny benefit. I had a laugh at the noise reduction claim. Sure, it will reduce noise, but the open exhausts on pl

The whole point of them is that they cook quickly, and without oil. Small units are good for 1-2 people, but it won't prepare enough for a family of more than 3, thus the existence of larger units.

These media streaming programs are trivial to set up. Just as trivial to stream to mobile devices in the home. No "warez" no "malware". The media server itself downloads new content automatically. Making toast is more di

The person who showed me the home media server is a SAHM (stay at home mom) with 0 tech background. She streams the her library to all her devices. Set up was trivial.

Services trimming their libraries will certainly become more commonplace as they seek to cut costs and drive up profits. This will remove a giant reason to subscribe to them in the first place. Compound this with ever more streaming service

Run it through grass or weeds and then it won't seem so innovative. Also, $4300 more than a standard prop means that a single trip over an unseen gravel bar will be the first and last time anyone uses one of these.

2nd gen Tundra weighs a LOT more than Highlander and has low final drive gearing for towing. The 4.7L and 5.7L V-8's are thirsty no matter the platform. Also, that model Tundra doesn't have a giant grill. Further, much of the weig

That is exactly why I quit not only food delivery, but grocery delivery as well. My final Doordash delivery was almost 6 months ago. Only half the order arrived. DD got around to refunding half, but only after playing ping-pong with CS. The

Subscription doesn't matter to 75% of the people who buys these things. Also, people who lease these (75% of them are leased) don't care about reliability or resale value...both of which are really poor for almost all German cars.

75% of all new luxury cars roll out the door as leases. They know the customers will pay and not question it.

How is it similar? Businesses that employ people and generate tax revenue vs someone with a gender studies degree that will never add value to anything or anyone but the institution that charged them $150k for the degree.

People need to invest in themselves instead of begging for freebies. There's no reason why I should be paying for someone's pointless and useless education.

Government is one of the primary reasons why housing is so expensive. In some areas, the cost to develop a plot of land has gone up 10x in as many years. Permit process is expensive and takes time. Laying utilities is expensive. Paying the

They don't know where it crashed. Makes it hard to find. Air France plane went down. They know where it went down and it still took them 2 years to locate it. The ocean is a HUGE place.
