The reason why the Jimny (Samurai) was discontinued in the US was due to Consumer Reports corrupting their testing procedures due to corporate pressure.
The fact that a Jimny will not survive being hit by an oversized Truck reflects more poorly on the society that is normalising driving oversized Trucks than on the Jimny.
The SLATE Truck looks interesting. It is an EV from a new upstart.
The have an interesting sales model but they are backed by Bezos so they are probably more financially stable that Tesla.
Dear Australian Government, take note. Dear ASIO, please ignore.
When we moved in, we had a two car garage and three cars. (Actually a few project cars in the back yard, but they don’t count). The land developer did not permit three car garages
Now I have two adult nieces and one nieces boyfriend and their extra three cars. We also have one camper trailer that used to fit in the back yard, but someone installed a roof-top-tent on it and now doesn’t even fit in the garage.
Fortunately, I have two very accomodating neighbours.
We also have one neighbour who did drive a RAM 2500, but decided to downsize to a normal sized vehicle because they couldn’t get their vehicle out of the street because of all the P-Plater cars that were inconsiderately parked in the street.
My neighbour who is a painter has a Renault Kangoo.
An old Falcon Ute is overkill.
Even home owners need to fight to get Zero Energy homes built.
8 years ago, we had a builder (who was offering free Powerwalls with every build) who refused to follow basic guidelines.
We ended up having to escalate our complaint to the CEO of the company for fired the two Site Supervisors who were not being helpful.
This is evidence that the US political system does not function.
There are two paths forward;
I would not call Zohran Mandani a socialist. I would call him a progressive rational centralist.
The government gets kickbacks.
Aussies can avoid illegal gambling by saving their money and not gambling at all.
Brainwashing can only go so far. At some point, (such as targeting civilian children) any sane soldier will crack and say “No”.
He can’t monetise on PeerTube. He will be able to get sponsors, but YouTube revenue will dry up.
Feudalism is based on Chivalry where the Lords have a mutual responsibility to their subjects and serfs.
They are not trying to create feudal kingdoms, they are trying to establish little dictatorships.
I’m pretty sure he is doing it on purpose now.
He is trying to destroy the country. No one can be that stupid.
I don’t see a bio security camera.
All I see is someone’s new camping trailer. It probably already has a dual battery system preinstalled!
Me too, and Copilot is disabled on my work computer (and then magically reenabling itself)
Please tell me how to disable Data Detectors on MacOS, sometimes a number is just a numerical string and is not a Phone number; actually it it quite unusual for it to ever be a phone number. Even if it is a phone number, I would love to be able to just copy and paste it without it trying to connect to my phone and prank call some poor sucker.
Substitute “Pie” “Couches”
Sounds like it was using DCAU YouTube videos as training data.
I was always advised that “NATO standard” was instant coffee with 2 sugars and milk.
Very glad to hear that you are OK.
We all make mistakes, there are always surprises from road users (including pedestrians, animals, cyclists) behaving in ways you do not expect.
**Number one rule of driving; Don’t try to occupy the same space as someone else.
Number two rule of driving; Always assume road users are all idiots…
Number three rule of driving; …including yourself.**
All the driver-assistance systems in the world cannot help you there, because they are also programmed by idiots.
This can be paired with the “Erase all Data” option in “FaceID and Passcode” settings to add another level of security.
Just remember to play dumb when you “accidentally” incorrectly enter your passcode 10 times in a row and to make sure you have a recent backup that you are able to access.
Kinetic Yellow.
Illegal in some countries because that sort of colour is reserved for Emergency Vehicles.
I wanted to join Team Tennis Ball when I purchased my Jimny, but decided that Team Latte was a much better team to be on.
