Exactly, and alkaline cells far preceded Li-ion cells. You could easily make a TV remote today that takes a single 18650 Li-ion cell, but not in 1980.

Since AAA cells have been ubiquitous for decades, and that's what consumers have come to expect, it's going to take a long time to transition everything to something else.

Are you aware of road rage?

this is super cute

Dude you can't choose a career based on speculation. For all you know this will impact everyone either way, so do what you want, if anything it might be the best time to do so. But who the fuck knows lol.

Still sort of affordable because it is an electric truck. If you have a gas or diesel work truck the difference between the $40k and $80k electric F-150 is about 2 years of fuel savings.

Doesn’t mean they drove.. car transport company can transport a car from Cali to here for 2k

You realize most people don't have faith in the singularity being a safe goal.

Think of the outer layer like the rind of a fruit you don't eat. Same idea. It is there to preserve the meat and is carved off to serve.

The catch is that the water has to be consumed through the ass.

Huh. I always go through my insurance. They go fuck up the other insurance.

The only time this has happened to me, the insurance of the rear ender sent me a check for damages of $2000 unsolicited. The repairs were like $5,000. My insurance got it fixed, the other insurance paid. My insurance said that I would probably have some issue suing in the future but if I wanted I could cash their check. And then I cashed the check. Done and done and done.

I think you said it perfectly. IMO this would work in a rogue like setting, but in a fully fledged world, not having control might hinder the experience. However, I could see an hybrid where the game works tradionally by having a pre made response, but letting the AI word it. Something like: NPC must express gratitude, write me a sentence for this.

Their relationship is weird. She (20F) said so herself and I agree. Like they weird me out and this is one thing that I’m like??? Gross? Is it not gross?

Others can give you advice on other savings accounts, but I'm genuinely curious why you wouldn't invest atleast half of that? Are you about to buy a house or move? If it were me, I would put almost all of it in index funds and let it grow for 10 years.

> As I went through that drawer, I had stubs dating back to 1997 when they released Star Wars.

That’s exactly when I started collecting mine, and for a long time had every stub ever since. But since buying tickets online became the norm, especially when going with groups, it became less and less of a habit. I keep mine in a fishbowl on a shelf.

It´s actually "Behind you, fool"

in oz.

Ride share was needed to lift the shitty service of taxis which has mostly been accomplished.

There is no use and no value to ride share any more they are expensive rapist rip off thieves (more so than taxis)

When I first rented, i was SO naive on this issue. I eventually talked with a lead inspector, and it was eye opening. What I learned:

(1) BASICALLY ALL houses/units that are sufficiently old and haven't been remediated have lead. I naively thought that any lead issues would be solved in a big remodel. NOPE! The older a house is, the probability of it having some lead approaches 100%.

(2) For example, original windows are one of the most problematic/dangerous (opening/closing window or doors grinds lead paint -> lead paint dust contaminating all the surfaces/wood around it).

(3) Buyers, real estate people etc... view a positive lead test as a scarlet letter. NO ONE TESTS FOR LEAD because NO ONE WANTS A POSITIVE TEST ON THE PERMANENT RECORD. People take no test to mean may not have lead, but it's closer to the opposite!

(4) It's not obvious where lead is or isn't until you get an inspector and they use the scanner.

(5) The way lead home tests seem to happen is that a kid will have elevated lead on a routine blood test, THEN the home will get inspected, and then a remediation process starts.

(6) Real estate agents etc... will straight up lie to you.

(7) Sellers won't accept your home bid etc... unless you waive your right to test for lead before closing. (Even though that's illegal.)

(8) Most everyone seems to ignore or pooh pooh the issue.

(9) I'm not an expert. Everything above may have serious errors (i.e. go talk to a real expert, not me)!

What is capitalism to you?:)
