Ethanol usage in the summer creates smog and other pollution which is why it’s normally only for winter usage. Except this year, they allowed it to be used longer in an attempt to give Biden a boost in the polls

Yes, out of hundreds of millions of people, he is the only person who can do the job. In 2028, we’ll have to close the country since nobody else is capable.

It’s because they can’t remember where their meth dealer lives this week.

Plus social media and the internet. Malls used to be teen hangout places but now there are a million more options that don’t involve the hassle of actually going somewhere.

I like how this interaction started as an argument and ended with recommendations for a good, used car.

It’s illegal. You’re required to register your car in your own state typically within 30 days.

It isn’t even noted until the very end of the article that this woman, the dead man, and the house full of drunk people who drove there after getting fucked up at the bar were all police officers. This is the reporting bias that people talk about when they talk about police coverage in the media.

Not so much anymore after kicking a bunch of people off their plans when they had guaranteed pricing along with a bunch of other shitty shenanigans they’ve been up to as of late. I’ve been a customer for close to 20 years but am thinking about jumping ship as of late.

This isn’t protectionism for US companies it’s protectionism for the automotive industry as a whole in the US including manufacturing and sales of foreign brands like Toyota, Hyundai, and BMW. Domestic companies only account for a fraction of cars built and sold here.

This doesn’t work as you getting pulled over with a WA ID in a car registered in Mexico is going to raise suspicions.

Dehumidifiers should make it feel cooler since sweat evaporating is how we cool ourselves. Too much humidity means our sweat won’t evaporate and we can’t cool off.

And suddenly all those wet t-shirt contest promoters out there became heroes instead of villians.

It’s probably interference from your engine’s ignition system. A better quality setup might have built in protection from that.

Letting people in without giving them a key (or if they forgot their key) is the use case. Also if you have smart home stuff like home assistant, you can program it to lock on its own based on conditions (like night time or your phone leaves the house).

I had this one and the upgraded one since we were too poor to buy a real PC. It worked decent for web browsing at the time and I spent a lot of time in IRC chat rooms. I think (may have been later on a real PC) I even started doing Geocities/Tripod/Angelfire pages on this and learning basic HTML.

They are pieces of shit but for the price it’s actually pretty decent. $30 is the price of a couple McDonalds meals. We used to buy them for the kid to use since it didn’t really matter if it got destroyed. I also bought a new one to use as a smart home touch interface but I haven’t quite finished that due to ADHD and too many projects.

I’ve seen this at Disneyland. People walking around using a fucking tablet to record videos like people do with selfie sticks.

Same. I used to make fun of them as they’re ‘too big’ for mobile stuff but too small for computer stuff, but after getting a killer deal on a Tab S7+, it’s super useful for casual games, watching youtube/plex, drawing, and web browsing. It’s also great to use in the kitchen while cooking or doing other stuff

The production value is already there. Provided they can afford to have regular projects and other content, I don’t see why they wouldn’t blow up big. When I first saw the channel a couple of days ago they already had something like 750k subs with just the one video.

God I’ve been watching through Bleach and it’s like this. Each 22 minute episode is really only about 12 minutes long with the rest being a 5 minute recap of the previous episode, the intro, credits, and post credit filler.

Edit: a tangent of this would be watching a sitcom with the laugh track removed. Imagine seeing the actors awkwardly standing there in silence in the middle of their dialog where the laugh track would normally be inserted.

A funny second tangent is the musicless music videos on YouTube. Definitely worth checking out for a laugh.
