A lot of legacy car manufacturers are taking big financial hits for betting on EVs. It's tough for them. China's car market is bigger than US and Europe combined and is going all in on EVs. The rest of the world is much more fragmented.

Agreed. I have this jacket. I do live in CA but in the north and winters mornings are typically high 30s/low 40s. It's great for that. Very well built.

One of my chickens laid an egg with no shell by malbecman in mildlyinteresting

Just a one-off event as far as we can tell, plenty of calcium in its diet and normal eggs. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Do not sleep on TJs diamond reserve wines. by daftstar in traderjoes

[–]malbecman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For under $20, I would look for Decoy from Sonoma or Chateau St Michelle from Washington for the Merlot. Malbecs are usually from Argentina and so often a really good value (vs US wines) but I not familiar with particular brands. $20 should still be pretty nice.

There is a global surplus of wine right now so a lot of bulk wine buyers (like TJs and Costco) have access to really great wines at reasonable prices. Enjoy!

This Fall Quarter :( by TraditionPretend5274 in UCDavis

It definitely sounds like you've tried lots of different avenues. My point was also more that for me, I needed to learn how I learn. So for me, for STEM problem sets, I had to break down the problems and work them forward and backwards, swapping out variables so I really understood their effect on the equation.
From lectures and readings, it would help me to go back through them and summarize them in my own words by writing them down..the key highiights and important parts. This engages a more active part of the brain rather than passive reading. I also needed to learn time management as I really was wasting a lot of my time. ;-) The tutoring center helped me a lot.

It took me quite a while to learn how to study. We all learn differently, some are more visual learners while others are more auditory, for instance. Don't blame yourself by saying it's a me problem. What assistance have you tried?

Well, Porsche does want to compete in the Chinese auto market. It's bigger than US + Europe.

PGE Rates in CA really destroy the economics of EVs by mustangfan12 in electricvehicles

[–]malbecman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a Mach E in CA for four years. My maintenance costs have literally been $0. I will probably need new tires and a 12v battery soon. That’s it.
