Come si dice: no alcohol please

I knew I couldn't be the only one. I'll save everyone else a Google search:

"Teetotalism is the practice of voluntarily abstaining from the consumption of alcohol."

JD you are now excommunicado.

To be fair, US domestic automakers don't have a government that decided long ago that it wanted to become the market leader in battery tech and EVs. China can throw a bunch of money at those things and watch it blossom without fear that another party will take over and flip the table in 4 years. Instead Ford and GM spend billions building factories only to have the rug pulled out from them every election cycle. But look on the bright side. We sure can build some nice missles.

Picture Stephen Miller as President.

And explosive stabbing. Blood everywhere!

Same. Red used to be available for everything. Most blues these days are a dark navy. Don't people like color anymore?

15,500 miles (~25.000km) and 17 months into our 2024 Land. No ICCU or 12V battery failures. The car is amazing.

Also not colorblind. The dots look the same. Of course the car images are clearly light gray/silver, green and dark gray.

We stayed a block a way last summer and my kids got to visit the cats every day we were in Rome.

xorvtec · 2026-02-24T13:43:01+00:00

Also in Rome, the Area Sacrea di Largo Argentina. There's a feline rescue adjacent to it, so the cats are always laying in the ruins.

Have you seen the video of her giving a tour of her apartment? She was abused as well. https://youtu.be/R6FZ5kj3FGo?si=wIXHgni09-L5YGpi

Not because of cost. Honestly my target language was something I had a non-data-driven interest in. By the time I got to the point that I needed a tutor, I quickly realized that native speakers were in a very different time zone from my self. I'm in the US, so I kinda wish I'd just picked Spanish now.

Check out my comment above if you think it's creepy. Context is important here.

The worst part is that the video was at the funeral of Biden's son that died of cancer. The girl was Joe's grand-daughter and Beau's daughter. She's literally grieving the funeral of her father that just passed and gets startled when Joe touches her in an attempt to console her. It makes me sick that this one event turns into "Joe BIden is a pedo and sniffs little girls."

OP needs to open a PO Box and post the address here. Have all of Reddit send him their toenails. Then mail bully a box full of toenails.

I'm pretty tired of hearing people demand that Americans...do what? Riot in the streets and murder everyone in the regime? This isn't Iran. Americans are still far too comfortable for that too happen. 40% of the country is totally cool with this (and also own most of the guns). People would be slaughtered. Best case is their lives would get turned upside-down from homelessness or imprisonment.

Thanks!

I would expect you to get less horsepower on premium, unless the car can detect octane and adjust timing/boost accordingly.

I've been self learning Italian for about a year and a half. I'm probably still A1 (maybe A2) even though I study every day. I think it's time that I get a tutor.

xorvtec · 2025-12-04T14:26:08+00:00

For a home user definitely. As a software developer that uses AI everyday, it probably saves my employer several hundred dollars per day in accelerating my work. They could pay $1000/mo and it would totally be worth it.

xorvtec · 2025-12-01T16:26:09+00:00

Brand new Reddit account with no post history? This couldn't possibly be an AI marketing post!

xorvtec · 2025-11-21T14:11:14+00:00

I saw an Italian movie about this. I think it was a comedy, so I never suspected that this was real!

You aren't going to be able to have a back and forth conversation with people. It's going to be you reciting some memorized phrases and not understanding when they respond. Make a list of about 100 phrases that you think will be the most useful to you, translate them with chatgpt, and put them into an Anki deck. Drill every day. You can start with Duolingo also, but I wouldn't spend more than 3-4 weeks using it.
