    @Jolly said in 12 Cars Proven to Get to 200,000 Miles: Having said all that, more than one maker has had trouble with GDI technology. It's a carbon monster and I don't think it's worth the benefits. Yeah, it depends on whether cleaning out the carbon buildup takes place during, or after, the warranty expires, right?

    Was not able to view the video, but did see an similar article to the second one you posted. CHina has a lot of problems. Saw another article that claimed (without really any data to back it up) that the China population was about 100 MM less than currently claimed and the population cliff is therefore going to happen much sooner. Obviously, I am a bit bias, but I am not sure that the current US attitude towards China should be considered hysteria. LOL

    (I did not watch the whole video, but) Why was the music better before? I dont think that the musical talent level has gone down in humans over the past 50 years.

    In my early driving days, I got a ticket in the mail for passing a bus. I must have missed that day in driver's ed. The bus driver must have written down my license plate.

    My building is 4 stories tall. First floor is a restaurant, dentist, financial advisor (Jones), and a dentist. "Downtown" is full of dual-use buildings. Most of these buildings are over 100 years old.

    What's funny (?) about Vivek's post is that it's another "I'm gonna clean house because the entire government is corrupt!" That brings a lot of fans into his camp. If I'm correct, this is not the first time he's done something like this.

    Susceptible doesn't necessarily equate 'are going to'. OTOH : the Ukranians have their own strategy which seems to be quite effective.

    If you can get enough states to commit, it's Constitutional. I think. Could be wrong and amendments are the only thing possible.

    Sidenote: If a kid can land a job at one of the refineries, it's one of the best paying jobs in the area. And young people that are willing to work and have a good mind can have a career better than almost all of their peers. Which is why, when a kid who doesn't pursue college or who drops out after a couple of semesters, lands one of these jobs, it's common for the family to throw a party after he signs his hiring papers.

    Trump has done a full media blitz(at least conservative media) after the Fulton County shitshow. X is just more of the same.
