The more ineffectual the USA is, the easier it is for PuttyPoot to enrich himself. He’s spending a TON of money to buy an entire wing of a political party.

Actually the low cost part of this was that they weren’t upgraded cells. Just tested-good cells from other battery packs. Most of the time it’s just a couple cells in the bigger battery that have issues, and they take those out of the pool and make a good amount of $$$ because we were required to send back all of our cells. Assuming that of the 26 (iirc) cells that 3 or 4 were bad that’s a big profit margin for sure. The car worked great after swapping them out.
If they need to cut power, I’ll suggest that they start with this address: 1010 Colorado St, Austin, TX 78701
How dare you blashpheme Texas’ lord and savior… checks notes… big business!
Truth be told, i’m somewhat on the fence about tolls. Charges the actual users vs ‘everybody at random’. Generally I’m against them tho, as it tends to punish lower wage earners a lot more than higher wage earners. The economics of it tend to skew richer people to move to areas with more tolls tho, as they take that cost into account as a smaller portion of their overall budget.
I hear Russia is really nice this time of year. There are a few that have gone ahead, like Steven Segal!
Actually, no! Once the really BIG human die-offs start, the hyperwealthy will ‘bunker up’ for a while and once the population shrinks back down, we won’t be putting out all that greenhouse gas anymore, and the earth will cool back down. They’ll keep a few cities in places like Norway or what have you around to keep providing food and fuel for their choppers and parties.
I replaced the main battery in a Gen1 Prius. Fiddly. Had to get a strong buddy to help lift it in and out of the car, but we did it in a long weekend. A full set of ‘used but tested’ cells cost something like $750 but that was probably 8 years ago.
He’s just going to relaunch as WarInfo or some such bullshit.
I ‘AINT ROLLIN’ WITHOUT MY MAN GOLDBUG!
The classic response is that you have to capture lightning first to apply to the rick that you want to do the thinking.
If it’s even possible. I’ve personally swapped the main battery pack on a Gen 1 Prius. Not easy, but more tedious than technical. Lifting the assembled unit was a hell of a chore but a coulple strapping dudes managed it. Reconditioned cells are available in a lot of places. I’ve had a Nissan Leaf and would get another one, but even finding a battery, let alone any info on swapping it was pretty much impossible.
Poster child for ugly but fast.
Rip your inbox…
This is like those horrible choice “would you rather” questions. Eat the hot dog, or drink the alcohol.
One of the first CDs I ever owned.
I’m thinking that would decrease the chance of problems.
I’d REALLY like to know what percentage of those were mail in or early voting. I’m sure that some will switch to Trump and the polls in the places that matter still have him winning by a good margin. Get out and vote!
This one should be continued… but in the vein of Netflix being morons, I’ll believe it when I see it.
Article is paywalled, but love the headline. Imagine a future with energy as an essentially free resource. We have a LONG way to go, but just the fact that we are moving in the right direction gives me a glimmer of hope for the future.
