It's also probably a huge win on the pollution front as well. Emissions controls are much tighter now.

Good thing even my mom learned to ignore that one a decade ago in windows.

Sounds similar to how google squeezes certain information out of a website to display so you don't need to bother visiting the actual website.

It’s weird to give a reason why NPR didn’t do something by citing an article from February of the following year.

Republicans have been wanting to pull their funding for 60 years because they don't think taxpayers should be funding it.

To be fair, that's pretty much what Terence Samuels did and he stands behind him.

They didn't just pass on the story, they put out negative commentary about it by calling it a distraction without even bothering to explain how they arrived at that.

A 2000 pound theoretical car is 60x more weight than a bike that can also carry you. Looking strictly at numbers, a car doesn't make sense to transport a person in most cases. I'm not advocating for less cars, just that looking

2021, 500k e-bikes sold in the US vs 15+ million cars. That's to a population that is already saturated with cars. Even looking at 2-3x growth of e-bikes over the next decade, that still doesn't sound like your assessment is acc

I replied to >recognise that electric bikes and electric scooters solve almost all the issues with EVs and you are coming back with that it's not relevant whether they are suitable for me, but I'm saying it's quite relevan

Your fallacy is assuming that the e-bike is a "good" solution for me. I'm not even suggesting perfect, it's so far outside of realistic that it isn't a viable solution. According to Google Maps, each way of my com

Unfortunately solving almost all of the problems isn't good enough. Electric bikes and scooters don't solve the problem of getting to work in a reasonable amount of time.

If you change the numbers from 160lbs to 300lbs and 9,400lbs to 2,000lbs does it really seem any less absurd if you're looking at it strictly from a numbers point of view?

That cost gets wrapped up in your insurance rates. If your car actually does cost more then people with your type of car will pay higher rates. If you as a driver are more likely to hit other cars or people, then your personal rates will

They likely won’t. They’ll gladly refund your deposit though. The deposit was for a spot in line, not a specific truck.

The value can go down and then the value of your mortgage rate is still locked. It works in your favor until it doesn’t.

Yeah, if you’re married you’re very likely just a standard deduction taker now. It’s not even close.

That sounds like a fun route to pull a trailer with my 2 kids in to go grocery shopping. Add in that I wouldn't be able to load up as much and I'd probably need to make that trip more often. I'd rather drive and spend that

Urbanized areas isn't what you think. I looked up several small town around me and they are all known for being agriculture towns, and they all qualify as urbanized areas. Some of them don't have proper grocery stores. These to

Model 3 performance is 3.1 0-60, Ioniq 6 performance is 5.1. That’s pretty big. On the low end model 3 is 5.8 vs Ioniq 6 is 8-9 seconds, also much slower.

Can you give some examples of ambiguous projects? That doesn't sound like a particularly fruitful endeavor to begin with.

I feel like you overestimate how little people do in office.

What doesn't it compete on? Model 3 is much quicker. Beauty is definitely subjective. I don't love the Model 3, but find the Ioniq quite ugly. They compete on price.

My wife's Hyundai UI is absolutely terrible, laggy and jumbled mess. It's only usable because you can ignore it and use CarPlay. That requires a physical cable which is annoying.

GM is reversing course and making their own system and will no longer support CarPlay. Manufacturers want the subscription money and control, I wouldn't be surprised if more pull back. https://www.motorauthority.com/ne

Not talking to people is rarely the solution for resolving conflicts. You also have made some assumptions that someone pissing you off is now a shitty person. You've also set an unreasonably high bar of totally reasonable. I think m

Congress is going to make laws and policies based on what people say. People should be much more careful when saying things to congress.
