I’m deeply sucked in, but I don’t have the attention span to wait for a new episode every week. I paused after Episode 4 and will go through the rest when the season finishes.

I can’t wrap my head around the cowardice. I went to law school to make things better and stand up for people. To see the most prestigious and powerful bend the knee is sickening.

The reluctant Trump-voters I know didn’t believe them. They all insisted she was a “California liberal” and reminded me of her ‘19 primary positions.
She also refused to break with unpopular Biden positions.

Most of these are J1772 units, and every Tesla comes with an adapter to use them.
This sucks for Tesla drivers, too.

Not sure how I feel about this one. I think the front light bar is too much, but the rear is an improvement.
They’ll probably sell a bunch of them if Elon stops talking.

I love seeing CNN drag itself to the center.
Jim Acosta wasn’t anywhere near as biased as the common fare on Fox or MSNBC, but he’s one of the few who were clearly to the left.
There’s a place for that, so hopefully he lands in a good place.

And the Colombian president is right. I think it’s a shame they backed down.

Of course they are!
I was replying to a post about having a “HUGE” cargo plane coming into your country. My point is that it’s not a security threat.
I think the entire Trump deportation plan is nasty. Cruelty is the point, and I agree with none of it.

I’ve flown as a passenger on C17s and they’re not uncomfortable. Much better than the smaller, bumpy, godawful loud C130.

Of course. But you can fly chartered civilian airliners into buildings just as well as cargo planes.
I’m not saying Columbia shouldn’t own their airspace. Just that the military cargo vs. civilian airliner thing is meaningless.

The C17 isn’t any bigger than many civilian airliners. It’s smaller than the 777, 787, and 747.
You can’t invade a country with a single cargo plane.

They’re not pushing stories. They’re summarizing notifications the user already chooses to receive.
If the occasional inaccuracy is a dealbreaker, people should turn them off. I’ve been using them since the early betas, and I think they’re mostly useful.
