Maybe I just don’t Google easy questions, but I have never had that AI overview give me the answer I wanted.

Lol, it’s a government vehicle. I’d be willing to bet that warning is on all the time. The sending units are integrated into the valvestem and cost a lot more than old school valvestems.

Might also not be this device that was specifically targeted. The backdoor could have been placed in component firmware for any generic components this device uses, or in some general software library that gets used all over the place.

Might not be. This could have simply been some IT guy noticing that something kept trying to ping the outside world.

Honestly, her take sounded quite a bit more reasonable than that. If your an artist, your art isn’t going to connect with everyone all the time, and you have to be ok with that. A lot better than the normal blaming and bullshit that usually goes around when a movie bombs.

“International Law” is much different thing from normal law. There is no real enforcement mechanism, so it’s very much a case of “might makes right”. In this particular case, it sounds like Trump pulled funding, which is not the same as shutting it down, even if the effect on the refugees is the same.

In this case “better” corresponds with “newer”. With newer chips being on newer process nodes, they are likely to have better efficiency, giving the watch better battery life.

Am I the only one who doesn’t find awkwardness entertaining?

That’s waaay more effort, and I am so very lazy.

Ok, but none of that mentions how they plan to account for panels buried under a foot of snow for half the year. That’s the source of the concern, not simply smoothing out daily peaks and valleys.

California didn’t really debunk anything here. It’s a coastal state with plenty of wind and a predominantly warm, sunny, rain free climate. Of course renewables like wind and solar do well. The reliability concerns are usually more prevalent in areas that have much higher precipitation, and especially in climates that get snow.

What’s a conservative talking point? That WCS sells for less than WTI? That’s not at all a political statement, that’s just a fact.

That and Canadian oil sells at a discount. Cut off the largest foreign oil supply and replace it with domestic oil that sells at full price, all while every trader knows you are buying up all the excess oil to refill the strategic reserve, and hooo boy are gas prices going to go up.

You heard it here first folks. Jesus was of the radical left.

Right wingers have lost their goddamn minds.

Better alternatives for what? I can’t think of anything I’ve ever bought from Amazon out of necessity, only laziness. And nowadays, pretty much everything that cannot be bought at a brick and mortar store, can be bought directly from the manufacturers website.

This is the take that frustrates me the most. “Since the candidate wasn’t perfect (by my definition of perfect, which of course is exactly the same as everyone else’s definition) it’s their fault that I stayed home”.

The election is always about damage control. You pick the least worst candidate, since those are the only options available. You want something different, you have to have your shit together before the primaries start. Instead, people do nothing for four years, then act all shocked and offended when nothing changes at election time.

No, no, no, don’t you understand? This is the Democrats’ fault for not running someone old, white, and male likeable enough.

Even if not a single residential property gets hooked up to a fusion generator, there will still be an economic case for fusion, especially as you move away from the equator. Industrial applications require an enormous amount of energy, and with solar power having a hard limit on the amount of energy you can get from a square meter, you’d have to have square miles of panels and batteries to keep one plant going.

There’s a chain of burger places called “The Burger’s Priest” in Canada. Must be talking about that place.

And how has that turned out for Gaza so far? Probably not the example you should be looking to replicate.
