There are plenty of sedan options already available, however there is a need for electric vehicles with more cargo space.

Hemp has been federally legalized for 7 years now, but the only industry I ever hear about is CBD and extracted THC. Where are all the hemp farmers growing crops for textiles, rope and paper?

It's not just tax credits for new cars, they are also getting rid of the Used EV Tax Credit which has helped to keep the prices of used EVs (relatively) lower.

I see your point, but as a counterpoint... I just bought a used Chevy Volt. It qualified for the Used EV Tax Credit because it was under $25k. While shopping around I did notice that most used EVs were right around the $24,999 price regardless of their features and I was fortunate enough to find one that was fully loaded and had very low miles at this price. Without the tax credit this car would probably have been priced closer to $27k but because the tax credit exists if they had priced it that high, it likely wouldn't have sold.

I feel very fortunate to have found this particular car, at this price, while we still have the tax credit available.

the company decided it wanted "to focus as much on the things that are going to be noticeable to users and that users are asking for.

This would open the site up to more users, and create opportunities for new ways to use the site. They would like the former, but are likely afraid of the latter.

I assume this is for EU citizens only to sign?

I've never heard of Bob Vylan... but now I've been giving them a listen and I'm enjoying it and hope any 'sanctions' they face will only help to make them more popular.

If we just accept these things, they will keep pushing for more.

They are going to do whatever they want to do. They've long passed the point of caring if they anger people.

I'm not saying to waste space... but when manufacturers start a pissing match among themselves and say that it's because it's what the customers want, we end up with shit. Why does anyone need a screen that curves around the edge of the phone? What purpose does this serve? Who actually asked for this?

I would give up some of my screen area to have forward facing speakers. I want a thicker phone that has better battery life. I also want to be able to swap out my battery. Oh, and I don't want the entire thing encased in glass. If we're so concerned about phone size then they should stop designing them so that a case is required.

Oh, I know, and I know it was an absolute dumb thing to even think would be in the realm of possibility, but I was just trying to find something, anything to grab on to and help keep my hope on the ventilator.

The best I'm hoping for now is that trump will do something good on accident, like how he legalized thc in 2018. Sure, he did it in the stupidest way possible, but it's something.

a proper scholar

She graduated from Brown and is currently working towards a PhD at Oxford, but yes, because she has had a job as an actor she can't be anything more than that.

 

From the article: The Open Data Institute that I co- founded in London has taken on the challenge of international co- ordination for a new standard that gives users control over their own data. It is called Solid (for social linked data) and the technical details are controlled by W3C, the web standards consortium. Solid seeks to decentralise the web. The platform can be used to build new applications that request access to user data. This data is stored in such a way that users have complete control over it.

 

I was curious how well it would work for switching between projects at work. I manage IT for several different offices and sometimes it is difficult to switch between my many various projects.

 
 

I went in and bumped up the graphics to 'High' and it is beautiful and plays great.

If you want it free from GOG you'll need to be sure you have it setup in Heroic Launcher.

 

I've heard that the reason Puerto Ricans can't vote is because Puerto Rico isn't a state and it is states that choose the president, not voters. But what about expats living abroad? Do they just get to pick which state gets their vote? If so, couldn't Puerto Ricans do that too?And what about people in DC? Where do their electoral college votes come from?

I'm sure I'm missing something here, I'm just not sure what.

 

Prompt___a ((realistic photo)) featuring a burrito-shaped ((rocket wearing a ((sombrero)))), orbiting the moon. The rocket should resemble a burrito, complete with tortilla texture, ((tortilla chip fins)), cheese sauce exhaust flames, and ((giant sombrero on top)), highly detailed, excitement and whimsy
