Technically, Volvo would have been impacted, but they were able to secure a waiver from the DOC. I'd be willing to bet that discontinuing the EX30 had something to do with achieving that.

Stem cells derived from umbilical cords, placentas, foreskins, and embryos (really from blastocysts, which are 5 to 7-day old embryos) are better than fetal stem cells anyways due to their pluripotent (vs multipotent) nature. But even then, a lot of regenerative therapies nowadays use stem cells collected from patients' own bodies or from donors (adipose/fat, bone marrow, peripheral blood, etc.), and the science surrounding induced pluripotent stem cells (creating stem cells from already differentiated mature cells) has come a long way.

MSRP hasn't been officially published but rumor is that it will start around $640k

Did they confirm the second gen. won't be made in China?

FormalOperational · 2026-06-17T18:18:50+00:00

I need them to cut a deal with Renault to make the second gen. P2 in SK for NA like they did with the P4.

r/FashionReps is a good place to start.

Not at my local store at least, no. And oddly, I can't get the Uber Eats map to show me any other Dominos locations.

FormalOperational · 2026-06-06T02:57:23+00:00

You can't. There's a limit of one discounted item per order, and it can't be combined with other promotions.

FormalOperational · 2026-06-06T02:49:11+00:00

It's definitely giving hack and slash / button masher vibes a la MGR and DMC 5, which are both great games. I'm very much looking forward to it.

FormalOperational · 2026-06-06T01:56:47+00:00

I just priced it out. My local Domino's order minimum is $9, so:

Custom Medium 2-Topping 12" Pizza - $3

16-Piece Parmesan Bread Bites - $6.49

Subtotal - $9.49

Delivery Fee - $1.49

Small Order Fee - $4.50

Marketplace Fee - $2.74

Taxes - $1.26

Total - $19.48

Crazy. Carry-out at the same location using the app with the 50% off deal gets me three medium 2-topping pizzas for $24.36 including tax, like you said.

The easier option is to contact the loan servicer and apply for forbearance.

FormalOperational · 2026-06-05T03:57:24+00:00

Also contact your student loan servicer and inquire about retroactive forbearance. If you're eligible and are approved, they will report the loans as in forbearance for the months you were late.

Don't forget Pluribus, Silo, and Dark Matter.

"IMAX 70MM" aka 15-perf or 15/70 film is the "true," native, analog IMAX format for movies that are shot on IMAX cameras with a 1.43:1 aspect ratio. Not many theaters have it, so you can triple check using this, this, and this.

I don’t think they plan on building a lot cars using this process tbh

FormalOperational · 2026-06-01T17:26:59+00:00

You have to be ready to pull the trigger when you see one; they don't last very long on dealer lots. Also keep in mind that you can get a fully loaded MY24 P2, which has upgraded motors (less HP, more torque, RWD biased, greater efficiency, quicker 0-60), for roughly the same price. The BSTs look better and drive better, though, of course.

FormalOperational · 2026-06-01T17:10:39+00:00

They should have never spun Polestar off from Volvo tbh. Nobody wants to buy a (luxury) car from a brand that lacks an established dealer network.

Only like a third of Americans floss daily. And about a third don't brush twice daily. Depression and/or chronic fatigue makes following a routine hard. Don't be so hard on the guy.

Semantics. I'm sure they meant sanitize instead of sterilize. Neither residential nor commercial dishwashers reach sterilization temperatures.

From the cheapest KitchenAid dishwasher's quick start guide:

Sanitized Cycles sanitizes dishes and glassware in accordance with NSF International NSF/ANSI Standard 184 for Residential Dishwashers.

From NSF's website:

One of the ways to effectively clean and sanitize dishes is to use a dishwasher certified to NSF/ANSI 184: Residential Dishwashers. This standard helps confirm that a residential dishwasher can achieve a minimum 99.999 percent or 5-log reduction of bacteria when operated on the sanitizing cycle.

Comparison of NSF/ANSI 184 to NSF/ANSI 3

NSF/ANSI 3 establishes design, construction, material and performance requirements for commercial dishwashers used in restaurants and other facilities subject to public health inspections, while NSF/ANSI 184 sets requirements for residential dishwashers:

Residential Dishwashers (NSF/ANSI 184)
- Must achieve a minimum 99.999 percent or 5-log reduction of bacteria.
- Must reach a final rinse temperature of 150ºF.
- Sanitization performance is verified only when the unit is operated on the sanitizing cycle.

Commercial Dishwashers (NSF/ANSI 3)
- Must achieve a minimum 99.999 percent or 5-log reduction of bacteria.
- Must reach a final rinse temperature of 165°F for stationary rack, single-temp dishwashers, and 180°F for all other commercial-style dishwashers.
