- mint2Prices tend to be sticky! Deflation isn’t common these days. When will price stabilize is a more appropriate question.
- But costing more and having limited capacity most certainly does slow production!
Are you saying that the trains have the same throughput and cost as the pipeline would have?
The pipeline unquestionably means more production, more co2.
- There’s actually a ton of places that rely on those ratings - like insurance companies need at least a certain rating in order to write in certain states.
- Sorry to hear you got a bum toilet, luckily for you, there’s the other huge benefit of low flush toilets that I didn’t mention.
Even with a total clog, there’s a 1-2 flush bowl capacity before it over flows.
Who remembers the abject terror of watching the water rise in a clogged high flush toilet and just praying it didn’t overflow.
Also unless every usage is a big poop requiring extra flushes, it’s far fetched that more flushes occasionally are adding up to the same water usage. If the toilet clogs for #1, something is very wrong - likely installed wrong, plumbing issues, or user error. Your toilet might not have been seated right so the wax seal ring is partially blocking the sewer line.
- Efficiency related regulation like the energy star is THE reason why companies started caring.
Same with low flush toilets. I vaguely remember the initial ones had issues, but tbh less than the older use a ton of water toilets my family had before that were also super clog prone. Nowadays I can’t even remember the last time a low flush toilet clogged. Massive water saving that took regulation.
Efficiency regulations may not be directly written in blood, instead they are built on costly mountains of unaddressed waste.
- At one point Tesla had the opportunity to become THE ev charging monopoly.
That ended when Musk went on one of his earlier whimsical firing sprees and destroyed the charging team. Had he instead beefed it up, charging could become a money printing machine. Even with his sabotage of the charging teams, Tesla charging is better than other but it could have been so much more
- “Yes, it’s true 95% of the forests in CA are prone to wildfire and many have recently burnt, but trust me my house in the forest is safe, it isn’t in a forest that has burned yet!!! Would you like to buy my house?”
So nearly every org in our government has been decimated twice over, including many critical ones, under staffed ones, and efficient ones. Is it far fetched that people would now be incredulous about the well being of the few departments not yet decimated twice over?
- Deflationary spirals are possible. Why would a consumer buy goods today if they’ll be cheaper tomorrow?
- So now instead of appearing in court and face their consequences if guilty, they are motivated to flee and evade even if innocent of the crime they are appearing in court for?
- I like how the AI summary has had a 50% rate of directly contradicting itself between the first and last paragraphs in my recent searches.
It’s like an overly confident bullshitter with no shame and the memory of a fruit fly. And I’m sure many people trust it.
- For anyone interested, with all keyless entry Subarus in the US it’s easy to put the fob to sleep.
If you’re car camping and doing a lot of stuff around your car and opening the doors a bunch for a couple hours, you probably want to put your fob to sleep. Found out the hard way, but my battery was also a bit iffy to start with that year.
- Are you asking why college isn’t a vocational school or technical school? Or are you wondering why the USA doesn’t have apprenticeships in the way Germany and others have?
A college isn’t really meant to be a narrow tracked vocational school - but it’s fair to ask why aren’t their more vocational schools for high tech fieldss
- Lost massive amount of revenue so other financial partners on the deal had to write it down substantially- is losing money a successful investment in your book?
- Well revenue cratered and that’s usually a critical business metric for financially viable businesses
Reminds me the joke of how to become a millionaire that’s basically start with a billion and invest in xyz terrible idea. That’s basically twitter, a shell of its former revenue and status.
- > The guy that stands up and gives a 25 hour speech?
Who isn’t even the top house democrat. The opposition party’s actual leaders were going around saying the best strategy was to lay low… feels like some kind of bad joke.
- > Similar to what Elon did with twitter
Wait who thinks what Elon did with Twitter was a success?
While it hasn’t fully collapsed like some predicted, it seems like a total unmitigated failure in any standard economic or business terms. It’s been a success only in terms of providing a bigger mouthpiece to Elon and those he favors, not a typical metric of corporate success.
In that regards, yes what is happening at the federal government mimics Twitter - making the government worse in terms of any usual metric of government performance but making it better in terms of carrying out arbitrary whims of a leader.
- Most people have no idea what a travois is.
The headline could have been evidence of a 22000 year old wheelbarrow like vehicle but I guess that was a mouthful. “Vehicle” is fine.
- So why are we Taking claims and justifications from this admin at face value? Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me”
- Doesn’t this have the added benefit of the operator not broadcasting their position? So anti jamming but also anti-pilot getting shelled/counter droned? Or is tracing the drone operators not so common?
- also ironic - an article lamenting the way things are so flat and lacking physicality yet it’s jam packed with AI generated art
