  • I'd say it's likely either him or Beshear, with Beshear having a slight edge.

  • Yes*

    *besides a handful of key figures, who was actually involved in the business plot is entirely a he said/she said situation. Some theories implicate a wide range of sitting congressmen, some keep it mostly limited to the businessmen themselves, and there's some everywhere in between.

    Personally, I think the idea that it was close to happening is way overblown.

  • Guys I'm starting to think this Lewis Hamilton guy might be a good driver

  • This relies on the assumption that everyone else, or at least a significant portion, in the office managed to do it.

    I'm not talking about whether or not they're actually physically capable of it, of course they are. Im talking about how people immediately shut down and pretend they can't follow simple directions the second something relates to a compute.

  • Maybe it's just because I'm older and more jaded, but that really feels like the last truly good era for GPUs.

    Those 10 series cards had a ton of staying power, and the 480/580 were such damn good value cards.

  • I'd also like to make a point that it seems a lot of people with AWD in my area miss.

    If the road is solid ice, not snow, AWD isn't going to help you much at all.

  • Considering the mining industries for many of the rare earth metals needed? Yeah he does.

    Plus there's the whole apartheid emerald slave mine thing, which is how daddy made the money he got to play with.

  • The best time to do it was any point in the last 100 years. The second best time is now.

  • It absolutely can be, and there are plenty of do it yourself plans out there. They just tend to be pretty expensive. It's nice that there's something out there now just completely open.

  • Alright, gotta say that this is really cool. Has the same vibes as a Sears catalogue house, which is one of my favorite pieces of Americana.

  • Being a complete moron ain't exclusive to straight people.

  • I really hate to break it to you, but I was at one last summer that had the same hours.

    Just because you haven't experienced it doesn't mean it's not real.

  • While the dividend certainly played one of the biggest roles, it's far from the only one. Penn Central was doomed to fail from the start.

    The Pennsylvania Railroad especially was just an absolute mess. Extreme amounts of embezzlement, an outright refusal to ever upgrade tracks, and the outright criminality of people like David Bevan were all just as, if not more to blame for it's death.

  • Selling off Conrail is still an inexplicably stupid decision to me, even looking at it from the full neoliberal brainrot angle.

  • Honestly? I really doubt that, unless you consider the events that lead up to Conrail as already having had their Boeing days. The American rail industry is an absolute disaster, and has been for decades. Derailments happen quite frequently (on average 3 a day in the US), you just actually hear about them now due to East Palestine. None of this is new.

  • Because asking nicely stopped fascism the first time

  • Oh trust me, if It was drivable, I would've kept it.

    Unfortunately a younger, much more sleep deprived me flipped it one morning.

    Loved that damn car
