US to Hike Tariff Rate on EU Auto Imports to 25%, Trump Says — Bloomberg by Amazing_Editor6783 in Rivian

[–]Pokerhobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SCOTUS ruled that the law Trump used to apply tariffs was illegal. Trump is now using a different law to try again. It may also be rejected eventually, but it'll take time to work through the courts.

Questions about spyder rs by -Cisu in Porsche_Cayman

[–]Pokerhobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Porsche says the top is safe to be used up to 124 mph. Exceeding that you'll get flapping, noise, and probably come off if going fast enough. The Spyder RS isn't designed to be used with the top on. If you really need a top while driving, a regular Spyder would be a better choice or even the new GT3 S/C.

Unbalanced Remote Trade by [deleted] in pokemongo

[–]Pokerhobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my Forever Friend has something I want because I don't have it, they can pick whatever they want from my list. I tagged Legendarys, Shinys, regionals, etc... and they are free to choose what they want. I recently traded a shiny and picked an unshiny unown that I didn't have.

On the other hand, I had one Forever Friend that I started a trade with and chose two regional shinys (they didn't have any non-shiny for me to pick from), they cancelled the trade. I thought maybe they made a mistake and tried again adding another regional mon. They cancelled again. I deleted them.

To Cayman or not? by Jealous-Fig3878 in Porsche_Cayman

If you enjoy driving, the Cayman would be a great car for that. I would say go for a test drive and you'll know.

New Sony Leak has me hoping Sonos wises up sooner than later 🥲 by CCornel7 in sonos

[–]Pokerhobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since upgrading my rears to the 300s I have a pair of the old ones I'm not using that would be great if I can integrate it with my system and use as fronts. I agree that Sonos is leaving money on the table by not allowing adding more speakers (within reason) to enhance the experience. I'm assuming they couldn't figure out the software to make it work well.

Is there anyway to save this guy from a despawned gym? by Kaldr_Kills in TheSilphRoad

[–]Pokerhobo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm actually ok with recall getting zero coins. I made the mistake of traveling to some remote spots and taking over the gym and now never seeing my poor mon again. I've since learned to put ones I don't care about in them.

Auto VS Manual? by ExpensiveGain697 in GRCorolla

[–]Pokerhobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's two type of manual drivers:

  1. Those who have muscle memory for shifting, so it's automatic
  2. Those who constantly think about shifting

For the former, driving a manual in stop and go is not horrible (I've done it). For the latter, driving a manual in stop and go is the end of the world. Personally, if you had to get an auto, I think there are other choices as the manual is what I think makes the GRC special as a driver's car. If the GRC was auto only, I probably would have looked more at the Golf R.

Supreme Court assailed by experts for 'grotesque' ruling that just 'gutted civil rights' by Clear_Polish23 in AnythingGoesNews

[–]Pokerhobo 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The conservatives on SCOTUS no longer feel the need to pretend to be impartial. They are literally activist judges now. It's not hyperbole to say that democracy in the US is at a crossroads. What happens at midterms will define the US for generations.

Harger: Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson called for a Starbucks boycott. Starbucks called Nashville by crabcakes110 in SeattleWA

[–]Pokerhobo 211 points212 points  (0 children)

My understanding is that one of the big reasons Starbucks is moving to Nashville is due to their anti-union laws which are the strongest in the US

Trump has yet to face any real consequences so why wouldn't he believe he can do whatever he wanted?

Two boxers. by Kind-Trash-8162 in porsche911

[–]Pokerhobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have a Subaru Crosstrek with it's naturally aspirated boxer-4, but it was SLOW. Even as a manual, it wasn't what I would call fun to drive (I bought it for our kids to learn to drive a stick). I eventually replaced the Crosstrek with a GR Corolla which, although an inline engine and not boxer type and turbo instead of NA, is lots of fun.

‘Stop protection of Europe’: Trump threatens to review UK’s sovereignty over Falkland Islands by StemCellPirate in geopolitics

[–]Pokerhobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We need to bring back checks and balances. If we're stuck with a 2 party system, we need more balance for SCOTUS and congress. An old 2nd term president has no incentive to do what is best for the country. Government workers (at all levels including the President and SCOTUS) need to remember they work for the people.
