I installed all Moog on the front end of my 69 C10, and pretty much immediately after heard that they're shit now. But, the parts seemed good, installed correctly, and have held up fine over a year and admittedly not a lot of miles. I'd bet you're probably fine

Any answer other than “who gives a shit, republicans are using a dozen kids playing JV volleyball as a distraction from looting the county and covering for elite pedophiles” is cowardly horseshit

also - as I have said before and will say again - the problem with AI isn't that there's zero positive, helpful uses to which it can be put; it's that none of them, whether singly or collectively, comes remotely close to justifying the dystopian shitshow that goes into making and selling the tech

I think it's valid to compare to the cheap EV market. Between those, the Maverick hybrid, and the upcoming Ford small EV truck, it seems to me like a very small sliver of available market for Slate. And the price/value seems iffy to me to sell the 150k/year they say they need

Especially if the rumors are true, and Ford drops a $30k, 4 door ev truck with possibly 300 miles of range.

I'm into it, kinda. I have kids so a 2 seater just won't work for me, and by the time you build it out with a back seat I can't figure a way it makes sense. I wish them well, but I don't think a huge number of people want a small 2 seat truck, lacking the most basic amenities.

26500 with destination, and you don't get a radio, power windows, or a rear seat. A used Ioniq 5 is just a way better deal

One of the most mundane truths in the world is that the biggest threat to any person comes from their own government, as a simple function of proximity and opportunity, and begging them to protect you from The Foreigners is a great way to increase your vulnerability.

I remember when non-binding language suggestions from university HR departments were national news, subject to repeated outraged columns in multiple media outlets. Do you see any of that national outrage about this real, bona fide, state-enforced intimidation & censorship?

there are certain ideas that are really narrative features of American politics more than actual truths. conservatives are patriotic despite their claims that America has degenerated, they're tough on crime despite embracing many criminals, they're free marketeers despite anti-competitive practices

Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis. Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention. So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption. 1/ Here it is - in one🧵

Bosch D-jet was analog. Electronic, but no micro controllers. Just circuits responding to inputs to control fueling

There's a very strong argument that the failures of Democrats and liberals to halt the authoritarian takeover comes down to them spending 25 years building an ideology & media infrastructure designed to avoid accepting or even acknowledging the truth of this one FDR quote.

“Democracy has disappeared in several other great nations, not because the people of those nations disliked democracy, but because they had grown tired of unemployment and insecurity, of seeing their children hungry while they sat helpless in the face of government confusion and government weakness through lack of leadership,” FDR said in a 1938 radio address. “Finally, in desperation, they chose to sacrifice liberty in the hope of getting something to eat.”

He's open to bringing South African white farmers as refugees though. I think this is more about owning the libs and bowing to Putin

"[A] democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism—ownership of Government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power." - FDR (1938)

I think there might be a somewhat innocent reason for this. Brake calipers are the part that squeeze the brake pads to slow down a car. Race brake calipers are for race cars. Maybe people not getting this hear the term somewhere, and think it's "racial". I guess still weird, but less?
