I think it might be the way her fingers are holding that box

the pile consumes all

Why dies it have to be such a pain?

Intentionally bad, if you buy Apple you're supposed to use iCloud and never, ever leave the ecosystem.

We have no annual inspections, only limited emissions tests inside two major metro areas.

University boards and administration don't care about students, it's all about empire building and increasing personal salaries.

Oregon does all commercial vehicles based on weight-mile-axle taxes. More weight, more axles, more miles, all increase the tax burden proportionally. Then you buy PUC credited diesel with no state gas tax. Works fine and can be extended to electric vehicles fine.

The issue I'll take with it is the filing and monitoring system they'll try to make private citizens do, which options are limited to either direct government GPS tracking (fuckkkk no) or an inefficient bureaucratic hellhole of odometer pictures (will cost additional tens of millions to administer). The Oregon system works fine because commercial vehicles are fairly strictly regulated, but that will break down with the general public.

No terrorism, just normal infrastructure collapse of a failing stagnating state.

This makes more sense when they show that image of his social media post.

It wasn't about the tattoo or the rock out hand gesture. It was skin color.

It is unclear whether it was by accident or intent

Lmao. It's as clear as a pane of glass...

They don't care that it might disproportionately affect their base anymore, because they now think they don't need their base of pesky voters.

So Plex just killed itself? Got it. Lmao bye Felicia nobody's paying the middleman for shit they are hosting on their OWN FUCKING HARDWARE.

I'm sure there will be a lot of, well, let's say "visual inspection" going on to enter these town halls, if you catch my drift. It probably won't matter if you claim to be a Republican but are brown, black, female, or under the age of 50.

Fuck being "wasteful". It makes consumers think twice about buying one, which is the actual intended consequence.

Elope doesn't care about the insurance payout on a handful of undelivered units. Theres been like <30 cars burnt so far. Manufacturers lose hundreds of vehicles to random damage and acts of god every year.

But the brand damage and resulting tens of thousands of lost sales caused by consumers seeing this and thinking "I may be a target if I buy this car".... THAT makes a dent in the bottom line, and is market pressure working as intended.

It's not retarded when you frame it in the light of a foreign power wanting to see their geopolitical enemy get capped in both knees.

Trump is an active foreign agent for Russia.

Left over momentum from the election. Stocks rose pretty continuously from the election on because businesses expected a "pro-corporate" President. They started correcting a week after Jan. 20th inauguration and his tarriff tantrums began to bear fruit, corpos realized they fucked up. "YTD" being zero or only slightly positive/negative only means the markets have fallen back to where they started pre-Trump.

There is a long, loooooong way to fall still.

If you're truely in a survival situation, where are you going to charge your phone after the first 24 hours of emergency?

Not even a day. It was hours.

Not that surprising. The Repuhlican leaders probably don't care, tthey're just not supposed to get caught.

The point is not that it is being used, the point is that corporations must protect their trademarks or else they may lose the exclusive rights to them. Intel also still uses the "Core" branding on their modern CPU's so it wouldn't be a stretch for them to try and continue legally protecting "Core 2 Duo" under the guise of retaining the "Core" part of their trademarks.
