I always saw it as being part of messing with the kids, he looks at the warning lights on top of the fence first. And for my headcannon at least, Grant is savvy enough to know that's no way to test if the fence is live or not, lol.

A fiberglass mat core with asphalt around it and grit stuck in the asphalt on the top.

The "bad news/good news" portion of the article for US residents is frustrating. "No, you don't get this cheap EV. But good news; Hyundai are sending a different one that is twice the cost!"

The first change needs to be teams pay for their own stadiums instead of them being taxpayer funded from cites and states. I don't care if it will drive tourism, use that money to take care of the purple in the city and make the city a nice place, even make it a nice place for a stadium, but make the team owners/pro leagues pay for their own damn stadium.

I'm out of the loop on Pico. Are their products not available in the US? I did a quick search and didn't find the Pico 4 for sale here.

Sure, to get them to speak in unison. They did all read from the same script though. It wouldn't be as viscerally creepy without the editing, but I would say the situation is as bad as the video makes it seem.

If you are using Firefox, switch your default search engine to DuckDuckGo, haven't gotten a captcha from them once. And right in the search bar you can switch to Google if DDG isn't doing too well on a particular search, I do end up doing that about 5% of the time.

Last year their revenue from selling cars, powerwalls, and solar tiles was around $90 million. Makes the stock price seem crazy, yes. But then they sold $1.8 billion of carbon credits to other auto manufacturers, and that costs them basically nothing. Still doesn't justify the stock price, but makes it less ridiculous. Selling carbon credits is Tesla's main business at this point, the things they make just provide the justification for it.

That is goddamn infuriating.

You're right, battery news IS always breathlessly excited about the next crazy advancement, but they have a lot of things in their favor on this one. They broke ground on a manufacturing plant last year, which is not the case for most battery news stories. And the battery uses no rare earth metals, is non flammable, and performes better by nearly every metric than lithium ion. If they make it to market, I think they will absolutely be revolutionary.

EVs very rarely catch fire. A vehicle with a large tank of gasoline which is burned to produce power poses a much higher fire risk.

20-60x more likely to catch fire, depending on which study you look at. My first Google result said 20x, but it was on an EV focused website, and I thought they might not be impartial. But Kelly Blue Book should be pretty good, right? Their article says 60x.

Plus if houses were flat they would be hard to go inside.

But I don't think Choice was actually proposing any of those thing could truly by flat in any equitable way, rather the opposite.
