I mean, it's a fuck up in hindsight... They clearly saw something in the technology that the rest of the market hasn't. It IS a viable option for EV's, but it feels at this point like it's a failed standard akin to Betamax vs VHS or HD-DVD vs Blu-ray. We've got thousands of BEV chargers across America now, and about 50 hydrogen fueling stations (in California only). I don't know if there is a market for both at this point... And there hasn't been for a while. Unbelievable that they're STILL sticking with it.

I don't give a fuck to fight in front of some fucking billionaires and rich people that could give a shit less about me. Probably throwing parlays. Fuck you guys."
I mean, I appreciate him taking a stand here. But I'm not really sure what he thinks his day job even is? MMA ticket prices for floor seats can be around $1,500, options up into the $10,000 range.
It's funny - before I actually clicked that link, I assumed it was Sony bricking PSP devices with custom firmware. I'd entirely forgotten they put ROOT KITS on their music CDs. They didn't get in near enough trouble over that.
That was last year? Fuck me.
What was it that in 2015 had you doubting them already? The master plan was public at that point. That was the year they released the Model X - a pretty good year for them after some development hell. I definitely thought there was a lot to be excited about back then. Not invested, just excited about their cars and hoping for a model 3 in my near future. I'm fully off the wagon now of course, but they had a LOT of success 2015-2018, when that continued hard with the model 3.
Princess Diana's death, for sure. I remember my mother being absolutely distraught, and I didn't understand why. We're not British and I'd literally never hear of her (from my mother or otherwise) before her passing and funeral were news. The funeral took place in the middle of the night and I remember her being up super early to watch (and I eventually woke up and joined her).
I'm surprised it was 1997, I would have figured it was '95ish. Can't believe that's the first news story I can remember. But we definitely were NOT a news household. Nobody reading the newspaper, no local news on at night or cable TV news on TV all day.
I feel like this is a shared, universal male experience... But peeing outside of a toilet, everything turns into a target. A tree, a rock, a wall. Hell, the toilet itself, a urinal especially, was already a target. I could be mistaken about how Universal that is... or you don't have a penis and I don't know how to properly explain myself on this one.
Broken, or jammed into a shoe too tightly and then it fully falls off.
So you read all of that, and came away with "checks out"? If they were technically correct, maybe. But the way their post was stated, they implied the colonies were freaking out over a tax cut that benefited them. Instead, it was the age old tradition of cutting taxes for the wealthy and continuing to tax the Americans disproportionately.
A district manager noticed they were being displayed backwards. The deli manager went to a training class and fixed something they were doing wrong. A new deli manager transferred from another store and trained her new people to do the job correctly. A new deli backup went to train in a different location and learned something they were doing wrong. A different assistant manager was put in charge of deli and corrected the behavior. They were hosting a district meeting and when all the district leadership came to help prep the store, they were retrained.
These are all real life scenarios that happen in real grocery stores. I'm pretty confident that the shitty scale label was never meant to be facing forward, regardless of the price. If they are "hiding" the price, then why are they not hiding the 50 price tags in the service case over at the deli counter where they sliced it in the first place?
I haven't read every single comment, but yours is the first I've found that eliminates presidential immunity. One of the most important things we can do is close up all the loopholes these vile billionaires have located and abused and this is definitely a big one. Use the powers granted to the president to codify real progress, then shut down the ability for a president to crown himself king permanently and throw away the key.
I think you didn't push the accelerator hard enough then. Boy do I love hearing the whir of my Ioniq 6 passing on a 2 lane road or getting on the freeway.
