Oh. I think that’s just throwaway newspaper comic quality plus jpeg.

I think they’re playing off the vanity of the car makers and owners wanting everyone to know exactly what car it is.

No you leave it on in the shower.

I’d say it also needs to be entirely optional and be opt-in only. Any service, program, whatever needs to work fully for anyone who doesn’t allow their data to be sold or released with extremely few exceptions.

Better solution.

Data are owned by the generator. Only they can sell it etc…

This also solves the privacy problem of law enforcement agencies applying warrants to phone companies etc. for access to your data, which has been an end-run around 4th Amendment rights for decades.

EPA has never banned small trucks. This is from consistent misinformation that shifts blame from car manufacturers to the government.

EPA made a scaled plan that required improvements to emissions from smaller trucks first, then larger trucks over the years.

Car manufacturers chose to abuse that flexibility by simply not making smaller trucks, instead of making ones that meet the standards, which is why trucks have steadily inflated in size in the US as they make whatever the next unregulated size class is that year.

You can of course partially blame EPA for not having the foresight to predict that would happen - but they also make regulations under pressure from politicians and lobbyists who are themselves influenced by car manufacturers.

Obviously implied? So there’s nothing in my comment that directly contradicts that and will make you look really silly in a moment?

This will come as an absolute shock to you. You can vote for someone you criticize…

Which party was it that dogpiles on anyone that dares criticize their shitty candidates again?

The point of saying it before the election is that the expectations are set.

Yes. Exactly! The reason people keep bitching about Harris and genocide is because they hope something might actually happen about it.

Biden was an absolutely terrible candidate (that I was going to vote for) and probably the only person who could lose against Trump. Because people constantly bitched about how bad he was they changed the candidate.

Harris doesn’t get to use Trump as a not-as-bad-as screen, and given that we don’t have the option of not voting for her, everyone should be applying every other available form of pressure to discourage her from enabling genocide or otherwise maintaining the status quo.

Somehow people think that pointing out that anyone who isn’t Trump are pro-genocide means that Trump somehow isn’t pro-genocide.

Like you’re not allowed to think about two problems at once. Or that there are no other options…

Remember way back when, when you could set icons to be whatever you want?

Relevant part at 5:15 but it’s all on point. There’s a better version somewhere but this was the top hit…

I like a fair amount of Bowie, but Young Americans is a truly grating song.

I have a perhaps unreasonable dislike of The Best Day by Atmosphere.
