If you think it's the Democrats that'll fix it, I have a bridge to sell you.

Political rival doesn't mean anything. This ruling means any president will get away with it and we'll likely need a constitutional amendment to fix. Hopefully ending qualified immunity would eliminate it.

That's my point. If it isn't good when this power is available to the president if you don't like then (or anyone in government for that matter) then they shouldn't have that power. This is absolutely about removing power from the authorities.

This isn't a Democrat vs Republican issue. Obama drone strike killed an American without due process. This is an authoritarian vs libertarian issue.

Oh no! Anyway...

Considering the context, I took it as an inclusive or.

Just give us Gradius VI already!

Hilarious that the story is from SI

The point I was trying to make is that the model y switched to 12v lithium batteries in late 2021 that are supposed to last the lifetime of the vehicle (from the 2nd article). The 12v lead acid batteries you are used to seeing in every other car made since the 1960s usually only last 4-5 years.

I would bet that the model y from this story is either a 2019 or 2020 model

In this story, it's the model y.

Not anymore, they've updated the platform to be 48v (which they shared the docs with the rest of the industry) and are using lithium batteries in both systems instead of lead acid. They're supposedly supposed to last the lifetime of the vehicle instead of having to be replaced every 4-5 years.

Where's the "please drink verification can" greentext when you need it

Wrong. In cities left lane is for through traffic unless there are 3+ lanes then it's the center.

Source: me CDL holder and trained driver. Training specifically went over this point.

You wouldn't build a foundation with lithium batteries though. This is additional power from something that would take up this space anyway

Legends is cannon. Disney cannon is just expensive fanfiction

It would have to distinguish between dirt and dust and clear coat, paint, primer, and metal.

The level 2 charge point chargers that are retractable I've seen twisted and turned into knots. Sometimes the retractor on those are broken and the car parked in the neighboring stall parked on top of the cable I wanted to use.

As EV adoption increases, the amount of asshole and indifferent behavior is also increasing. Any design with moving parts will need to take that into account

retractable

I can tell when someone hasn't used a DEF pump for diesel vehicles. The hose not retracting on DEF pumps happen pretty often. They also try to retract while pumping making filling DEF a 2 hands required operation.

I hope that whoever designed DEF pumps will step barefoot on a lego block daily.

When in doubt, I just get the title from the article and add important context or copy an important paragraph from the article into the body. Then get a link to an archive if the article is payable paywalled.
