Build more mass transit in outlying areas, but also there are reasons for personal car ownership. My partner uses her personal car to do home health, for example. That is not possible with transit or on a bike. Plus it rains almost 9 months out of the year here, and good rain gear is spendy. I love e-bikes and transit, but electric cars have their place. There is not one solution.

The front latch is fine, but the rear one is a wire behind a piece of trim you have to remove (unless that has changed). The passengers in the rear would have to know where it was and how to use it. In an emergency, the likelihood of being able to do that is pretty low.

We had a Tesla (Model S we bought used for cheap) before Elon went off the rails, and can confirm every bit of that info. Service was a nightmare. My partner had to tell the technician about an active seatbelt recall at one point. We once got an overdue parking ticket in the mail because the shop would just park on the street and not pay. Honestly other than that, the car was fantastic, but little did we know we just won the Tesla lottery and did not get a car with massive problems. After Elon started Elonning, my partner got sideswiped and that totaled the car. Miss the car, but do not miss explaining that we did not agree with anything Elon was doing or saying.

I think the model Y did as well.

Ah, got it. Could also be my migraine making me not fully get things.

I’m all for mass transit, but there are some jobs that require cars. My partner does home health, for example. She often has to take a lot of bulky durable medical equipment (DME) to a person’s home. Even if mass transit existed in all of her territory, transporting DME on it would be prohibative, especially when there are often multiple people that need different pieces of equipment.

Ah, exactly what we need. An inaccurate search engine to replace the dominant inaccurate search engine.

Do you live outside the US? The way the US works is far less centralized than other countries. Most of this time this kind of stuff is left up to state regulations or even city regulations and contracts. The truth is that capless plans exist, but that is not the reality for large swaths of the US. You’re taking a broad approach to a specific problem. Ending data caps ends at the Federal level ends the problem and does away with the mess of state BS. Anyway, I am done talking to a brick wall. Have a good one

You act like I work at the FCC. The reality is the city has tried focusing on that in the past and failed because the contracts set up with the ISPs were renewed by the centrist city government. I think you are thinking of an ideal situation where one does not exist.

WHAT CHOICE!? Data caps are on all plans. What options are there? Lay out what you think the choices are.

Around here they charge for going over your cap, so easy profit with no regulation would be the likely culprit. Also, you keep talking about competition, but there are 2 whole broadband companies in my area, and one does not have fiber/gigabit in my area. That is not what anybody would call healthy competition.

Consumers can pick a subscription with a data cap, or they can pick one without.

I am in a major metropolitan area and I do not have an option to have no data caps. Even the slow internet plans have them. I don’t think you realize the stranglehold telecoms have on consumers.

That is a blue light filter, so you shouldn’t need a third party filter. The science just isn’t out there to show whether or not it helps with sleep, though. It might help, but other things like not using screens within a couple hours to bed and not using phones in bed has better outcomes.

Twitter has DMs, plus it helps by not allowing that person to reply unless they create a new account.

No problem! If you want for sure confirmation, feel free to reply with a pic of the whole unit, but I am very confident based on your description it is good as is.

If I am imagining it correctly, it should be just fine! This is a pretty common design. The middle shelf provides the stability and the other shelves provide adjustability.

If there are holes in the case itself, you just need some shelf pins. If there are no holes, get a shelf pin jig and it should be quite easy to do.

Edit: An example of shelf pins. Should be able to find them at your local hardware store.

Huh, I have noticed that. I’ll have to keep an eye out for it. I 100% agree any slowness is outweighed by ad blockers though.

Good news, there is cross device syncing. You just have to make a Firefox account. That might be a no go for some folks, but it is an option. If Firefox on mobile is slower, I have not noticed the difference. Have they just refused to try it?

Not really a good comparison. The steam engine was an extant technology at that point. AGI is not, and we really no idea if/when it will be. One thing is clear though, it is not as close on the horizon as tech bros want us to think it is.
