Have you tried putting it in a bowl of rice?

I still haven’t owned a car new enough to have the start/stop feature so it’s helpful reading these comments about the experiences with it. One day (after the wheels fall off my car), I’ll keep this in mind while test driving vehicles.

I never had that feature but I just rented a Volvo Hybrid for a week for a road trip and I’m pretty sure it had the feature. Because it’s hybrid, the gas engine turned off but I never really noticed because the electric engine would start you off while the gas engine did its thing. The result was a pretty seamless experience. I couldn’t really tell when the gas engine was off or on in city driving. There may be better options out there as this is the only one I’ve driven but that was super smooth. I heard when it’s gas only that the experience can feel “lurchy”.

Have they finished making America great yet? I’m not sure how much more greatness the nation can handle.

If Cuomo runs as independent, I don’t think he comes close to winning but he definitely splits the vote which could push this Republican. Does the NY Mayoral race also use rank choice? If it does then evething should still be fine.

Makes me proud to push Linux professionally.

From what I understand, the US is now an oil producing country due to fracking so we won’t see results like the oil embargo of the 70s, just increases in prices. Increasing the price of oil will increase the profits to Republican donors. I do wonder what the products of the closure will look like.

Sorry to hear this is happening to you. I went through something similar as I graduated with a CS degree in the middle of the dotcom burst. I ended up having to move from NY to AZ (USA) to find a job. It was terrible and I have so much sympathy to anyone going through that now. Wish I had a solution for you, I really do. I sent out crazy amounts of resumes and applications. About the only thing I can think of is to keep applying.

I can’t believe that ~45% are still favorable. Most depressing thing I’ve read in the past 10 minutes

They’re not fresh. The fairy demands the freshest teeth but long ago ancient humans made a pact with the tooth fairy. In exchange for humanity to cease its hunt of the tooth fairy, the TF will stop hunting children in their sleep to pursue the freshest and most desirable teeth. Centuries later, with the advent of capitalism, the humans rebelled and demanded compensation for the teeth to be given to the children. The TF, seeing the advancement of human warfare capacity quickly agreed to a small stipend per child in order to continue its harvesting.

Their share of disposable income is incredibly low. Picture someone 40 years ago with a much higher percentage of disposable income, of course they would be more into saving…they were able to save AND actually buy stuff once in a while. Gen Z has the option of saving OR paying rent.

Greatest country on earth!!!

IANAL but I’m pretty sure it would be illegal for his lawyer to sell him out. So not just getting paid to say but kinda legally required. If counsel does not provide best effort level services I imagine that gets you in front of the bar association and possibly contempt charges.

This is chicken soup for the soul.

Damn that made me laugh.

Big brain move right there. Run an electric car company that relies on consumers to care about climate change…and then deny climate change.

About once a year I do something like $25. It’s about the time of year I do my NPR donation and anything else I have been procrastinating.

This is exactly what they voted for so I’m sure they’ll start celebrating all of this winning any moment now.

I really think this is just about him wanting to stop pissing off Tesla customers and get people to go back to buying his cars. I don’t believe at all that this break is legit.

They don’t want you to know about the dish gnomes forced to work in tight spaces under terrible conditions.
