I think some Audis also still have a "Semiconductor Shortage package", which deletes blind spot/cross traffic alerts, rear collision detection, adaptive cruise control, integrated tolls and wireless charging.

I'm not sure it's the best approach, but I would figure they would wait until circulating Covid strains were acceptably less harmful and then reopen.

I think the argument would be that prior to advertising as we know it today, people bought things because they needed them, and at a substantially lower level of consumption. For example you might need a pair of work boots, walking shoes, a

I don't think I would consider a good action wasteful, even if their might have been a outcome with more of a benefit. While it's worth considering for example what the best way to improve overall health is as there's no real

Recently become a net exporter of all petroleum products, with Texas, North Dakota, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado, Alaska and California being the largest producers. At least in the near term I don't think the flyover states are as re

The seeming after the fact politicization of the battle hundreds of years later interesting. On the "French" side it turns from a fair fight between good men to honarable nobles defending the peasants from foreign mercenaries, and

I think this is it, the benefits of collecting from and sending to a person is valuable to advertisers as well as governments for similar reasons and applications, namely engineering consent. The trouble I see is that because of it's u

I think the question is should "regular people" accept what they're told by "lunatics" as if they were "regular", or should some filter or skepticism be applied?

I have a lot of respect to EVGA for honoring GPU waitlists over the last few years.

Where would people move to? I think there's a fair bit of room for Apple to get worse on privacy while still being preferable to Android/Windows. "At least they don't sell my data as much as ____".

The four traditional functions of criminal punishment are Retribution (an eye for an eye, or the punishment meeting the crime) Deterrence (for fear of punishment, people do not commit crimes), Rehabilitation (correcting the behavior), and I

I think the fundamental question is by what right does someone have "right" to something like land or the buildings on it, by the open market and wealth or by already living there? Neither is really fair or equitable. But I worry

Not directly, but a extremely wealthy person without a vote who can make campaign donations directly or indirectly arguably has a larger impact than the average voter. For example 90% of house seats go to the person who spent the most, thou

It's definitely some scary stuff. Loitering munitions like the hero-120 seem like they might wind up seeing widespread use, as they provide reconnaissance and range much greater than what is otherwise available for infantry, and can be

I don't this will be a good paradigm, just the direction we're probably unfortunately headed in. The Chinese already have something like this implemented[1], though I'm not sure how it works. From a state's perspective m

Moderation was probably the wrong word, more in the sense of controlling faked content posted by accounts that are not real people. Managing Alex Jones official account is about the same, but fake accounts/bots become harder.

I personally feel the same way, but I would guess we're probably in the minority. People who share information about themselves are generally more valuable customers for social media, and most people don't seem to have much issue

"U.S. Population Growth and Family Planning: A Review of the Literature" is still the best collection of potential methods, as far as I know despite it's age.

Is this the case for all cars with touch screens or Teslas in particular? I've seen some pretty horrible touch screens in cars. For a recent example, the MK8 Golf GTI.

Perhaps it depends on complexity of the system? I like in Florida and have to do some tuning occasionally, but I think it just has a typical in cabin and ambient sensor and isn't aware of how much sunlight there is.

Wouldn't it engage a heavier fan speed if there was a smaller disparity in temperature? For example if it's 75 in the car and I'd like it to be 72 turning the AC down to 70 would engage a heavier fan speed with the downside o

My understanding of the "seed oils are bad" angle is that Olive oil is high in Monounsaturated fat which breaks down/oxidizes under heat but is low in polyunsaturated fat/linoleic acid unlike vegetable oils, which oxidiz

I feel the same way, I think the shirt I have on is probably 5 years old. It doesn't help that "fast fashion" garments are generally lower quality and wears worse than alternatives, but a fair number of people are just done w

It's worth noting that you and I are probably wear more times than the average amount. For example I've seen numbers like the average garment is worn on average seven times[1], and garments being considered "old" if they
