This is just saying they're using their brain to recognize that there is a coming slow down.

Great yams

Yeah it is pretty good practice for puzzling out meaning

But it's not adding new debt, the federal government already holds that debt. I'm not clear if you understand that.

I don't understand your statement, the student debt is already there held by the government and theoretically they plan their future revenue for the budget with payments from student loan borrowers included. So forgiving student loan debt would just be a decrease in revenue while they continue to have the same amount of debt.

You can't really just nationalize things, and there are alternatives to starlink.

At least once

It's often their role to sort of placate those in charge and just ride it out.

They don't have the mass to have multiple stomachs like a proper cow

Artificially plant and water the trees. Gather a lot or pile of branches for dead wood, one of the defining parts of an old growth forest.

Yeah, if the president hits Bush numbers like 19% in 2008 or lower then you get a much higher chance of being ousted. If you lose enough popularity within the Republican party then the Senate can impeach him and remove him from office.

It's closer to what Obama was at mid career. If you want bad you gotta hit W numbers, he was at a low of 19% approval in 2008.

No. The article doesn't talk about preorders at all, and they are completely meaningless and obviously a "preorder" for a car with just a 100$ deposit doesn't mean anything. That's basically just signing up for a mailing list. The cyber truck as announced was ugly but with really good specs for only 40k$. It was shit and the price was minimum 70k so it didn't sell well.

Preorders aren't a legally defined or protected term or anything, who wants to regulate that? It's basically just a list of emails signups so it doesn't mean anything at all.

It does have Bluetooth on and you can't turn it off . But the wifi setting can be turned off

Google is giving anyone with an edu email a full year of Gemini plus free just cause they're desperate to get people to use it.

It's more about a minimum of weight or pressure that affects it. So the higher the pressure the more likely it is to flex the road where a small vehicle with light pressure might not make it flex at all. The heavier it is the more the weight will flex the subsurface and cause more damage.

"To give you an example of that impact, let’s do a quick calculation. Here in New Zealand, the heaviest vehicle allowed on (some of) our roads is the 50MAX truck. It has nine axles and a total weight of 50 tonnes, so the load-per-axle is 5.55 tonnes. The best-selling car in NZ in 2022 was the Mitsubishi Outlander. It weighs 1.76 tonnes, so its load-per axle is 0.88 tonnes. The fourth-power law says that to calculate the relative stress that these two vehicles apply to a road, you take the ratio of their loads-per-axle and raise the result to the fourth power. In this case, (5.55 / 0.88)4 = 1582. In practical terms, it means that a 50MAX truck applies as much stress to a road as 1,582 cars (or quite literally billions of bicycles)"

People are migrating there, but if there's not a lot of content then the few people that really push out a lot of content because they make money will be very prominent.

Cheese isn't even good when it gets that thick. It takes on an unpleasant texture. And in a sandwich like that it would be ruinous to the bread. You would at least have to slice it thinner and layer it.

It's still better than the 1930s, low bar that it is.

That won't work, because building a new factory takes 2-5 years and if the tariffs drop at any point then you're stuck with a product way more expensive that nobody will buy.
