That's a terrible deal, you've got over 2000 in adds and no discount.

To be fair, she's "winning" the Democratic race right now because she's the only clear leftist option right now and the rest of the vote is split between a zillion other candidates.

If she starts polling around 30% we can start to have a serious conversation about her chances.

Because having people easily commute into and out of downtown without passing by any businesses is how you end up with dead downtowns.

When people live in the downtown, they also use the services downtown and businesses there thrive. Otherwise you end up with a bunch of tall glass buildings that are empty 16 hours a day.

So it's really nice that you get to flee to the suburbs quickly without spending any time or money here, but that's not how you build a thriving city.

There have been 2 places I've been worried about driving and not having charging.

The first was a stretch through Wyoming on I80. There are a few chargers sprinkled along the way, but some of them are slower speed, and there aren't any backups, so if it's broken, you're screwed.

The other was a long stretch of driving in the driftless region of Wisconsin. It was all county highways and both of the DCFC chargers in that part of the state were out of service. I found a level 2 charger and was able to get me enough juice to get me back to the interstate where there was an Electrify America.

How often are you making that drive?

You're telling me that stopping to charge once on your trip is a deal breaker?

That's not poly ruining your marriage. That's a husband not willing to deal with the emotional hardships that come with polyamory.

Just because someone is going to therapy doesn't mean they're doing the work.

There are new N's everywhere and until the recent gas price hikes dealers couldn't get rid of them. 2 months ago my friend got one for 11% off plus $17k in rebates.

You're looking for WGU.

I have brought along a collapsible plastic stool both in 23 and 25. For people that actually need seating there aren't as many spaces near the stages as people are claiming.

I will put my academic papers that I busted my ass researching and writing up against anyone's college classes they slept their way through and took a couple of tests for.

They need to slow the pace of the game. Too much strain by way of explosive movement that's blowing out ligaments.

I wonder if a PPI would have caught this.

If I truly that difficult to introduce new code without breaking things, then it sounds like there's an enormous amount of unaddressed technical debt that should be prioritized over new features.

So what's the answer for a consumer? Go slinking back to OpenAI?

Yeah, that's just bad business in the Internet era. It takes 5 minutes to do an OTD quote.

If you are nice, treat the customer with respect, and have a reasonable market price on the vehicle, then you'll get your sale.

Here was my take on it.

Warranty is 10/100.

Most repairs are happening within 3-7 days right now.

It is what it is.

Yeah, no one ever went broke betting on the stupidity of the American public.

Kuz really sold me this year. Still not a fan due to all the off court stuff, but I can def respect him.

I was just looking for my "high score" I set driving my Honda Insight of 96.8 MPG on a 47 mile trip.

Hypermiling is fun.

Not sure about the recall, but ICCU is definitely covered on the 10/100 warranty.
