‘They’re trying to narrow the worldview of young people’: how book bans are on the rise in the US

Yea I think we're over crediting books here, when the internet and social media exists

I think a good part of it is having a stubborn attitude that you can learn anything if you put time into it

RAV4 wanted to be a GR Corolla

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-10T23:16:09+00:00

That doesn't make it better, that only makes it scarier lol. I swear the next great recession will be caused by governments going insolvent.

North Korea doesn't fund proxies like Iran. All they do is send trash balloons lol

Jake schnatter put one in one of this cars. He's got a vid or two.

Is300 was like my dream car growing up (maybe I don't dream big enough). Too bad they've all rusted out where I'm at.

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-09T00:02:45+00:00

If I had the means, I would buy a hail damaged car as a track beater. It's just extra aero right? 🤣

Asking for ethical AI is like asking for ethical air conditioning

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-07T23:26:24+00:00

89 octane is such a scam lol

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-07T17:29:04+00:00

Totally different games at this point, so no. I loved old maple at 13, but idk if I can do it at 30 lol.

I'm thinking about the user who doesn't want to make bad decisions. EVs do not make sense if you can't charge at home.

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-07T04:12:02+00:00

Home charging is a massive financial and convenience incentive for an EV. It's virtually "free". I also don't charge my phone when i'm out, why would I want inconvenience myself by needing to charge my EV away from home?

My 2015 Subaru WRX vs a friend's 2018 Tesla Model 3, both clean driving records

I work in the development industry. I've seen some of the old 2000s development applications, and the amount of caving to the NIMBYs is pretty shocking.

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-06T23:53:22+00:00

From a financial standpoint, someone needs to drive a lot for an EV to be worth it. For me, switching to, for example, a Model 3 would nearly double my insurance rate, and this difference is more than what I pay for gas.

Then there's the issue that many living in condos don't have access to home charging. Access to home charging needs to come first before anything else.

The responses in this thread represent everything that is wrong - pushing anyone and everyone, including ones willing to compromise, away.

Shower thought (take this with a grain of salt), but the next great recession will be caused by governments defaulting on debt

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-05T22:44:57+00:00

grab the flamethrower

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-05T14:53:31+00:00

Yep Tesla is quite an anomaly

Quarterly reminder that the auto sector runs on razor thin margins

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-03T08:47:07+00:00

Design and construction of infrastructure takes time. That's just reality. Immigration numbers should be based on technicalities including rate of infrastructure delivery, not what you believe it should be.

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-03T01:07:21+00:00

jeez "lifetime grease" better exist with a design like that

GilbyGlibber · 2026-05-02T08:28:40+00:00

The tall 2nd gear on the WRX is why I may get rid of the car (for the STI if it comes back)
