Privileged port?

Don’t worry about leaving it plugged in, just set the max charge to something like 60%.

Having fun isn’t hard when you have a library card.

I also don’t use much data and found Keepgo to work well. It has data plans that don’t expire, you just buy the data and use it until it’s gone. 10GB ($42) usually lasts me the whole year.

They will get helped, just watch. That is the point of all these blanket tariffs, hurt everyone and then make exceptions for their supporters and friends.

I don’t get it but it is wrong to say nobody wants to invest in his stuff, look at the stock, it has already bounced back.

the biggest player in the electric vehicle game is having a rough year.

You couldn’t tell by looking at the stock price.

Must be stressful to live so paranoid.

This isn’t reflected in the stock price. It’s one of the stocks I keep an eye on and I constantly see articles about the company in trouble and losing market share and yet the stock continues to keep ticking up. I’ll believe it’s failing when the market starts to turn on it.

A human is not just a computer with a camera.

How do you explain the inverse correlation between income and the total fertility rate within and between nations?

To me it seems counterintuitive that having more money, or like you said about ability to secure a roof over ones head, would mean less chance of having kids but that seems to be a clear trend. Have you actually looked into it or you just making up bullshit?

There was a podcast I listened to a while back that indicated the opposite, the idea was that the better off people are, the less likely they are to have kids. One of the explanations I remember was that the better off people are, kids are just another competing thing that they can do. For example, if you are well off and can go travel for a long period of time, you might be more inclined to do that vs deciding to have kids. Another stat was that birthrates were higher for lower income people.

Again you’re blaming the consumer but totally overlook the employer being cheap and paying shitty wages. You’re playing right into their hand.

Don’t forget that it’s the employer paying the shitty wage that is the one screwing over the worker. This is exactly what those employers want, to be able to pay shitty wages and have the blame shifted to someone else.

In Germany it’s typical to do so just to make the change easier, you might catch an angry glance by making them make small change.

Italy will list a coperto or servizio on the menu.

Dunno but probably worth it for the amount of transactions they process.

Do you think it’s a waste of resources to even give him a trial? Death penalty trials are long and expensive and often cost more than lifelong incarceration. You might be okay with a low bar for having the government remove someone from society but I think the bar should be high, and the decision shouldn’t be done lightly. However, keeping that bar high also takes more resources so the issue isn’t as easy as you make it out to be.

There really isn’t much to plan. I got an EV for a trip to Vegas, I wasn’t even specifically looking for an EV, it was just the cheapest option. For 4 days around the city and the national park I didn’t need to charge it at all. The cost to return it with a lower charge was much cheaper than it would’ve been with a gas car. It was nice not needing to visit a gas station either.

I saw in Asia there is a Chinese EV, I think the brand is Wuling, for about ~13-15k with about 180 miles of range. Small car but perfect for local driving.

Virginia passed a law adding sexual orientation and gender identity to its non-discrimination laws. This law was challenged and stuck down by citing a supreme court case (I think the one about a cake, but not sure) that said it infringed on the speech of the religious person.

As for how far it goes, good question. When the supreme court case ruled on that there was a lot of fear that it would lead to further discrimination around the country - it seems to be true so far.
