To be fair, it could have fully driven itself into the train: “fully self driving” <> “fully safe driving” /s

Have you heard of the Uighurs or Tibet?
Umm that’s donuts if they’re from Dunkin’ 😜
Yeah, you don’t want toddlers learning gun safety the hard way
Idle losses are real but not very substantial in a modern engine compared to the bigger factor you’re missing which is that in city driving tests there is a lot of speeding up and slowing down, ICE vehicles throw away all the energy used to slow down as heat in the brakes which makes city cycles particularly inefficient while an EV captures that energy through regenerative braking, dramatically reducing the net cost of those momentum changes.
It’s the New York Post, temperature would be a chilly 45F for their American audience
I wonder if an argument could be made that birthdate is a component of your genetic information including family medical history? It is also potentially age discrimination?
I was gonna say this is a sad day, but that’s just nostalgia for a time that’s passed. I grew up reading and loving Popular Science, my dad always has a subscription and I would read it cover to cover usually the day it came in the mail. I let my own print subscription lapse years ago, tried a few different versions of digital magazines (anyone remember zinio?), but today it’s just websites like arstechnica and the verge that have become the focus.
I still value the articles I come across online but the print edition is just a warm memory at this point to me so I can’t expect them to keep a business going on that.
Observing and learning from the natural world is in no way dumb, it is extreme hubris to think we humans are so smart that we don’t have to listen to nature. Or that society gets to be somehow outside of nature. It is that kind of logic that got us global warming, obesity & diabetes epidemic, big pharma, and loss of traditional knowledge and wisdom. If I see a momma holding her cub by the nape of the neck my first thought isn’t going to be that I know better how to care for her young.

God bless - nothing wrong with having the right tool for the job and not being frivolous. I too have an overly large truck but it’s a 3/4 ton (2500 HD) and almost 15 years old. I don’t drive it more than necessary but I own 20 acres and often enough I need to tow, haul or pull something that I couldn’t do without it. I’m going to keep this thing on the road until it dies or there’s an economically viable green alternative. But it’s crazy to think of the resources that go into a new one and I couldn’t justify it for a few mpg better, so I’m very happy to have a trustworthy mechanic 😁
And, while I really like the Rivian and the F150 lightening, they would be glorified very expensive toys and I’d still need to keep my big truck for the hard jobs, so they’ll wait till I win the lottery ¯(ツ)/¯
Thanks for your comment, certainly there are people like yourself who mean those words earnestly to convey a delicate point. I also imagine that comes out in your demeanor and character when you are saying that to someone.
Unfortunately, in my experience, many people say it without any sense of empathy or compassion at all despite the literal meaning. 😕
While I’m definitely one to get mildly irritated at the phrasing (and am even more irritated by “fur babies” lol), I’m really bothered by people excusing their own rudeness - right up there with saying “no offense” right before being deliberately offensive. Like if you don’t want to yuck my yum or cause offense then why are you about to do it anyway?
Those are some fine words and definitely help motivate me to contribute more. No way I was touching threads before though, so not much convincing needed!
This looks fantastic, will give it a try, thanks!
I’ve found myself defaulting to liftoff lately and not regretting it, but threads like these remind me to not get complacent! I found jerboa tough to get started with but decent after configuration was done. I like wefwef as well.
Fwiw I was a Boost user on Reddit
