    Specifically, LMR packs will lower the cost of some full-size EV truck and SUV models to bring their prices closer to those of their gasoline counterparts. It's great to see the progress. But prices closer to gasoline counterparts isn't enough, the prices, for this untested technology, have to be better. The early adopters have come and gone. It's time to make a better vehicle (cheaper, more reliable, convenient) if you want to make EV the standard.

    As it has ever been. Unlimited wants/needs versus limited resources. It's morally repugnant but unavoidable.

    That could just be a really bad mix. We saw Dave Matthews band probably 20 or so years ago and the mix was SO bad we walked out. You literally could not tell one song from another.

    Yeah, I thought as much. Maybe we should make it a crime to post bullshit on social media. Disclaimer: TNCR is not social media.

    School Desegregation has ended racism. There is no longer any need.

    It's a 10% each deal for China&USA isn't it? So your Chinese sourced stuff will all be available but now cost you all about 10% more in the shops; and your Government will make 10% of $462billion. Right?

    @89th said in Doesn’t she have a dog to kill?: If true, a big if... that is evil. Let’s back it up here. It’s not like as if the other contestants are not granted citizenship. We also don’t know the nature of the “challenges”. It could very well be a reality show highlighting the challenges snd best ways of navigating them to achieve legal citizenship. If the show is demonstrating the proper way go through the immigration process, then it’s not evil at all. It’s a great good. But if you phrase it like the twitiot, it sounds like some absurd game show, and sure, that’s pretty low. But let’s get the details, first.

    @Mik said in Baby healed in world’s first customized gene therapy: Of course, then one could not be non-GMO. That'll stir up the tree huggers and anti-vaxxers. Then don’t eat them… or take the therapy. It’s your choice. Of course, the mutant flesh eating zombies will affect everyone..

    @Mik said in Maybe this person can explain how tariffs increase prosperity: @jon-nyc said in Maybe this person can explain how tariffs increase prosperity: At least they can use them most of the year. What I don’t get is people who put them in up here. An expensive three weeks for sure. When we were moving up here 12 years ago, the realtor showed me a house with a pool. I said I wasn’t interested because I had to pay for it three times. Once in the purchase price, once to get it filled in, and again with higher taxes that come with the pool.
