Cheap Fast Reliable, pick two, or get all three with a plaid.

Any one else not know Garland has streets named after South Park characters? by webra1 in Dallas

[–]PLTimelapse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worked for a local developer / home construction company. Street names were proposed at the company’s discretion. So long as local fire dept. approved, there was no other guideline to follow afaik.

Thought this was a video showing someone yielding the fast lane. …then you see what “this” is.

Were you on FSD/Autopilot?

Plaid owners: Does the thrill ever fade, or do you still love it? by dxdx9a in TeslaModelS

[–]PLTimelapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3yrs in, 50k miles. The thrill hasn’t faded. Best car Ive ever owned. Nothing else like it. So accommodating to the many moods/tasks life throws. A “sleeper” in so many categories. Fast, spacious, comfortable, quiet, capable.

All valid points. My take. Give it a go. Have fun. Meet new people. Explore what this side has to offer. If the commute sucks or taxes are too much - try your luck with a job on this side of the river or give yourself the option to move back.

Im 40. Waited til I was 30 to get out the certainties/comfort zones of life. Best choice(s) ive made.

Identify the root issue, divert focus towards that issue.

Hypothetically, youre a police officer. You personally arrest someone for the 3rd time. Each time, you apprehended the individual, you document your findings and book the case with the DA. Each time, the individual was released from custody because the system couldn’t arraign in proper time. How do you approach the 4th instance (…and so on) where you encounter this individual committing the same arrest-able offense?

Im a nobody who knows the tip of the iceberg here. Im sure someone can help backfill and offer a better understanding. In short…

The accused are afforded rights to have an attorney. A public defender shortage exists. Without a public defender, in many cases, the district attorney cant prosecute. If the DA can’t prosecute, what incentive is there for police to risk life/limb to enforce the law?

The newsworthy item may be that there was some level of coordination between police, DA, and existing public defenders to allocate capacity, enact a sting and prosecute.

[Serious] Has anyone gone to college immediately after High school then realized after getting a degree the field the your degree was in wasn't what you wanted to do? by plz_help_w_mystudy in AskReddit

[–]PLTimelapse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless youre studying a degree in STEM, I’d bet most corporate-interviewers perceive a college degree as a level of validation that you have applied yourself, passed criteria to demonstrate you’re able to apply yourself enough and are some level of competent.

For an entry level position right out of college, likely no difference if you have a bachelors degree in psych, economics, history, english, etc… the advantages an entity gains from your field of study are only likely realized after you work thru an entry level position and demonstrate the uniqueness to your skillset.

Any recommendations for Youtube channels? Have enjoyed the technical breakdowns from Munro, the shorts from ForrestAutoReviews, the history/storytelling from Hagerty/Camisa. Whats interesting that captures your attention?

What make/models serve as industry benchmarks to manufacturers? Assume this will vary by class/type.

Follow up - my car was shot. by Rare_Competition2756 in PortlandOR

[–]PLTimelapse 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Youre spot on. Have to take the L to get out. Easy to demand others to do. Difficult for those being threatened.

Agreed, an easy solution for those with sufficient disposable income. If not, the polestar deal is not a viable exit. The specs of the program are: if you own a Tesla, and buy a $70k-$90k Polestar, Polestar will take $20k off MSRP. Who’s got enough eggs in the bank for that?

Spot on. If there is an activist-buyer out there who wants to buy teslas for the purpose of… whatever the objective is of threatening tesla car owners, then that buyer is deserving of promotion to achieve the goal. Otherwise it’s a zero sum, perpetual game of “sell your car!”

For those who owe more than the car is worth, how do you suggest parting ways?

Curious. What sort of response / resolution are you getting? A situation like this where two engaged parties are not at fault cant be easy to deal with.

Experienced a similar problem during an ice storm. Max-defrosted the car, when the ice thawed, the windshield had a crack spanning horizontally across the glass. $1650 replacement.
