What’s funny is that nobody alive today was alive and in the military for any major conflict that we were actually victorious in, so what “good old days” are these geezers even pining for? The days where we lost a bunch of soldiers in Vietnam and the ones who survived came back with PTSD and drug addictions?
Until someone can do it cheaper and then they take over. This has already happened many, many times as chinese quality increased and wages and thus prices increased.
Unless some other nation finds a stockpile of rare earth minerals, slave labor, and bottomless government subsidies, I don’t see this happening with EVs. Currently nobody else on the planet is able to sell them anywhere near the price China is and that’s not because of simple cost cutting and business efficiency.
This is probably some agreement witn the Chinese government to give good press in other parts of the world in order to get benefits on vehicles sold in China. Ford’s CEO put out a nearly identical article a few months ago.
No it’s definitely their monopoly on the rare earth mineral market.
Change it to WingDings and sit back while the world burns around you.
While its technically correct to call fondled, dead people taxidermy “felt sculptures,” it still doesn’t seem right.
Now they can breathe down your neck from the comfort of their own home!
Dont forget the constant shuffling of buttons and menus so that you are constantly learning everything for the first time and can never become proficient at using their software.
They let me watch when my wife needed an emergency c-section, and I wasn’t even the baby’s father as it was a surrogacy for some friends.
“Favorite” as in “entertaining” is definitely the Boston accent because it makes you sound wicked smahht.
Buying used movies at a garage sale fuels the retail market? If that were the case then why can’t you buy used movies at any retail store? Another falsehood.
I’ve spent thousands on hardware and software for my media server, so it seems that piracy does fuel the retail market in ways that buying second hand doesn’t. Perhaps you’re right and they’re not the same. I think piracy generates more revenue than buying second hand, elevating it well above buying used copies, which is now the most harmful way to consume media.
Sure it is. Its their content and you’re not paying them for it which is the same as stealing, right?
Tell that to all the people who’ve purchased digital copies of movies and TV to own only to have these companies later pull those licenses and leave them with nothing.
Nope, buying things second hand should be considered just as bad as pirating as you’re depriving the creators of their entitlements, just to take your argument to its logical conclusion.
Thank you for broadcasting your opinion on that.
I think i have a SmartTag 2 and got about 6 months of battery life out of the box on the one I put in my vehicle. It sits most of the time and the tag is always in power saving mode.
No way, LEDs can be tiny. Just look at how many they cram into displays like your phone or TV. The biggest thing is likely to be the battery but those can be made in all kinds of form factors.
Only $35 is a bargain for those shoes so there must be a catch. For reference, I went to Burger King with my wife for lunch last week and it was $35 for just our two meals.
The US government did that via a guy who wanted a promotion at the DOJ.
