Start with a few minutes instead of 15, and make sure the calls don't appear in the call queue for staff to see. Then don't tell anyone you did it.

And voila, no leaks, no feedback!

So they actually put a vest on him this time after doing the 20 person perp walk with no vest the first time.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) has now selected Microsoft as one of two companies that will advance to the final phase of its Underexplored Systems for Utility-Scale Quantum Computing (US2QC).

The moment I read this, my first thought was, DOGE probably fired everyone involved in this program, and said they just saved American citizens $99999 trillion dollars by doing it.

Sorry making sure that prompt happens uses up all my qbits, I can't do anything else.

Good thing they're already on my never buy list and have been for well over a decade.

With all the craze to make phones super thin, soon they'll be so thin you could add a sliding keyboard on it, and it'll be thinner than phones of a year or two ago!

That's definitely true, but do you wanna risk being one of the 10s or 100s of thousands they do make an example of? They would definitely go after people for this. It wouldn't play out like weed did.

Edit: Also knowing the current admin, they'd probably take the opportunity the go after people they specifically don't want, so that could really change the odds of being targeted.

Something like 70% of their net income comes from AWS that pretty much runs a huge portion of the internet.

The states can't protect you from the feds, all they can do is not help the feds.

If you don't pay your taxes, they can still come after you.

Boofing? Devils Triangle?

Just farting and a drinking game. Not sure what you're talking about.

The baggy I keep up my butt just in case I get raided and suddenly don't have a supply, yes.

Ummm

He can fire them, break the law in doing it, and be immune.

It does not mean the firing remains valid and the people lose their job because it broke the law. They have legal protections too.

It's like saying I had a meth lab and the cops busted it, but because I couldn't be criminally charged, I also get to keep the meth lab. That's not how it works lol. They take the meth lab, you just don't go to jail.

 

Having a discussion about turning radius of the EV trucks, and a person takes a radius for 2 vehicles, and then compares it to the turning circle of the 3rd.

I try to politely point out that the numbers he's comparing aren't the same, and then he replies that he "stands by the numbers I found"

The company’s letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated the door handles could allow water to enter the circuit board assembly, which may lead to the doors opening unexpectedly.

According to Volkswagen, the production halt could last until the beginning of next year as it works to resolve the issue.

 

This was a really good interview, worth the watch!

 

It doesn't say what was changed but that makes it a great price again.

It also really messes up the pricing between the 3 RWD which doesn't qualify and the AWD that does since it's only a 1k difference now. I wonder if we'll see them lower the RWD or potentially raise the AWD price?

 

So both Rivian and Tesla have or say they are going to have range extenders for their trucks, but in both cases even if they are removable and rentable they are huge as trucks are huge. In teslas case it seems to be a permanent change though.

What about commuter cars though?

One thing we really need is cheaper in city commuters and those don't need a long range. That brings costs down and gets more people into EVs, but those will get relegated to 2nd cars in many cases.

If those commuter cars could go to a shop and get an extender added in the trunk though that would make them much more capable of longer trips as well while keeping costs down.

If the battery rental is similar or less to renting a car for the same period then people would opt to use their own car for the longer trip and all the personal comforts that provides.

The batteries would be much smaller as well for a smaller vehicle.

 

Really cool look inside the factory!

 

I've been following the strike and sympathy strike happening against Tesla and the similarities to what happened with Toys R Us, and I'm left wondering why the financial sector in Sweden hasn't stepped in by now?

This has spread to multiple countries now, so it's not like this is day 1 of the strike.

Do they consider themselves some sort of thermonuclear option and would rather not get involved unless necessary for some reason?

If my understanding is right, they're what forced Toys R Us to sign an agreement since they couldn't effectively do anything like payroll anymore?

It seems like the logical next step to me at this point unless I don't understand something about how the sympathy strikes work there?
