I've never seen Patlabor or Appleseed, but the cover of both of them always intrigued me.

Cox is talking about *the data center* yet to be built. What about the existing Data Centers that use 100s of millions of gallons of water? We always said this was a bad idea for Utah and they're hand-waving it away - again.

I suspect the 15% in favor are salty EV owners like me, ODOT employees, and riders of public transit.

Woah, extra taxes for extra cops is *rejected* in Oregon suburbs and exurbs this year. The current Levy will expire and not be renewed for the first time since 2006.

Even if it were true, the White House and President should not be accepting any money from private donors for anything other than campaign finance. Donald's term has been blatant with corrupt kickbacks and favors.

That's fair, and agree, if they were building solar arrays on the rooftop and south side of every building in the facility, on adjacent land, plus other renewable plants and carbon offsets, I'd be somewhat less opposed. The current largest gas plant *in the world* is less than 9GW. 😏

Everything Scalise said here was a lie. The intelligence agency and Tulsi Gabbard reported just weeks ago in hearings that Iran was not close to getting a nuke. Why are Republicans ok with voting for people that lie to them at every single opportunity? Stop voting for these liars.

Sounds like a massive, massive energy drain that will be a net tax revenue loss for the people except for the private property owners. More stealing from the poor to give to the rich.

Selling around half a million cars a year seems good 🤷‍♂️. And that's just one company. 25% of new vehicles sold globally are EVs, and over 50% of new sales in China. The demand is there - maybe just not in your own neighborhood. I'd guess about 20% on the road in my in OR are EV.

Magnetic fields? Interesting question. The internet says on average it's the same as gas engine vehicles but there are larger spikes during acceleration and regenerative braking especially in the footwells nearer to the battery - which is beneath the floor. Studies say it's safe. 👇

Support aircraft locate the person, special forces parachute out or land if possible, likely with small vehicles like quads and secure the area and person. Then they get picked up by aircraft. So technically boots on the ground for a short time but not permanent.

Yes, we really dont like the capacitive buttons in the dash of our EV6. Accidentally toggle them all the time without meaning to. The Kia steering wheel has physical switches on each side with up/down/press which work well as well as tactical physical buttons which is good. Telluride:

We got a 2023 EV6 with 3,000 miles on it in 2024 for 20k below msrp! I believe it may have been a lease repossession / return. Pretty much still a brand new car but someone else took the depreciation hit for us. We love it. These were 55K new, fully loaded, for 30K now:

🎯 I'm not saying people can't be fabulously rich. I'm saying that the top 1% shouldn't own 45% of the world's wealth and more than the bottom 90% combined. No one needs a billion dollars while others still starve.

This is exactly what happened in Salt Lake City. 100(!) years ago, There used to be rail for trolleys all over the city. Even a commuter rail up to park city. They were bought out by oil and car industry and dismantled in the 40s.

A US submarine torpedoed and sunk an Iranian Navy ship that was 2,000 miles from Iran, not engaged in any fighting and over 80 Iranian sailors were killed and left at sea. But we're "not at war." 🙄 Don't elect liars!!

Right, and i'm just wondering what the effect of extra absorption of sunlight will do as the solar panels - I'm guessing - are less reflective then some of the surfaces they cover. Reflectivity of the earth's surface is part of the equation. Losing Ice, snow, & lake reflectiveness accelerates GW.

Finished a Hades II surface run with 24 fear if that means anything to anyone here 😅 Aspect of Moros Rank 5 on the wands is really strong. I thought the aspect was pretty bad at Rank 1, but it really scales up with ranks.

That "MG" looks really really nice. I assume it would need it's own pedestal to display. Huge. I know SD are supposed to have chibli proportions, but honestly this SD Kshatriya has great proportions and doesn't suffer from "small head." 😅 If the coms antenna was scaled down would be perfect imo.

No pretending here, i'm just stating facts. Batteries have gotten much better in the last several years. Where did you get your degree in chemical and materials engineering?
