Shit yea, they apply immunity for official acts all the way down to the level of street cops who get away with crimes against the public, so why shouldn’t it apply to that judge

Apparently it’s a manly man who does not receive negative man points for eating yogurt like a sissy. Non-yogurt males can only eat manly meats and must achieve constipation.

OK so no ambulances or fire trucks then?

What do you propose to do when an apartment complex catches fire? Bucket brigade to put out the fire and handheld stretchers for the burn victims?

Also delivery vehicles are always relevant. They are everywhere, delivering the goods to the last mile of their destination. They will always be needed until something like Star Trek replicators can materialize goods directly into the home.

Almost like Joan Cornella style, haha

That’s nonsense, cars will always be useful in both rural areas and cities. Goods and services must be delivered to their destinations at a scale and granularity that trains and bikes simply can’t attain. Your whole anti-car movement amounts to tilting at windmills.

This is more of a Fuck the Cops problem than with cars though. Cars are at least useful.

Good job doing their job, making an obvious ruling on what the law means versus the bullshit insanity. We need more of this.

That stuff would be about $50 or less total in my area, but I wouldn’t buy any of those but the butter.

Talking to robots is always lame, and denigrating to the human being who speaks to the inanimate.

Surely that won’t rile up any conspiracy theories

I called JD Vance an Eyeliner Gerbil and everybody clapped

That’s true but it’s not in the same ballpark as GPS tracking. The phone company knows what county I’m in but probably not what businesses and municipal buildings I enter on foot unlike GPS location services. Bluetooth and Wifi are also disabled when I leave the house to minimize those being used for device tracking.

It’s just good practice to disable all the unused wireless radios in your pocket computer. Don’t turn them on until you need them on. It saves a lot of battery life too.

Idiocracy has arrived in full. If only we had as good a president as Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho in office.

My kids don’t even have phones, as they do not need them and they are unhealthy for the young brain’s development.

I also don’t use location services on my phones. Fuck all that tracking bullshit.

The difference is that in the USA about 10 million Americans have been out in the streets protesting all of the fascist regime’s abuses. The judicial branch of the US gov’t is also making efforts to block illegal abusive actions with moderate success. The difference is that in the USA we have the rights to fight these things.

I’m going to be optimistic for now that this is a sign that the military is concerned with honoring their oaths to uphold our Constitution by following due process etc, after 100 days of profoundly disturbing attempts by the Executive branch to dishonor the highest of laws in our land.

How did that process work? Did you just connect the +/- ends of the cell to the +/- 12v wires of the PSU and let it feed from the high-amp outputs? Imagine there’s plenty of amps on the GPU and CPU power wires

Yeah that’s a good point. Ours uses the same refrigerant system as the AC to cool the battery, and the actual “charger” for the battery is inside the car being controlled by its software etc. The cables that plug in on the outside are technically just power wires, with the charging brains inside the car. That would be amazing if they could update the software to rejuvenate the battery once a year or something.

Important note near the end of the article - they aren’t saying we should cook batteries really -

“The team’s hypothesis is that the structural disorder developing inside LIBs may become a “tunable parameter” that, if tweaked using chargers at precise voltages to alter said battery composition, could be used to rejuvenate the batteries in our tech without fires.”

This is a good old idea that goes back to the days of desulfating lead batteries with powerful shocks of high-amperage current. Might just need a special Healing Charger that applies the right voltage/current to dissolve the bad crystals in lithium-ion systems

But that rug really ties the room together, man!
