There's a spot just a short boat ride southeast of Mar-a-lago...

Some EVs and hybrids have a 'one foot driving' mode where if you take your foot off the gas, it does start to actively brake and you will eventually come to a complete stop. Technology Connections did a video on it a little while back, showing how it can be bad if the brake lights aren't programmed to come on in this situation.

I always figured red and red strobing would make sense, since amber is used for turn signals. Not sure if that would fly for epilepsy and such though, but there are plenty of other bright flashy/flickery lights when driving as it is.

True for companies that aren't locked into their pre-covid space. Some have decades-long leases, others own the buildings outright. My last place was able to walk away from a lease that they had just signed months before covid hit, and downsized to a space that just had some meeting rooms, a couple offices for execs, social space and server rooms. No need for a bunch of desks, they went 100% remote during lockdown and decided to stay that way permanently.

Everywhere I've worked since college has had people working in multiple locations, so interaction via chat and voice/video call were common pre-covid anyways. The shift to remote really didn't have any measurable impact on social stuffs aside from going out to lunch with co-workers, which still happens now, we just schedule it ahead of time.

definitely want to convert to direct drive though... I think you'd shred an OG transmission with the amount of torque an electric motor can produce

I've yet to find more than a handful of pages that have had issues, and most were fairly poorly coded to begin with

We had this when I was in high school over 20 years ago... You filled out a card on picture day with the name you wanted in the yearbook

but also, tax the rich, we can have both more money and better use of it

Yes, your total energy consumption drops, but your electricity consumption rises as a result. Electrification of stuff that relied on burning fossil fuels means that electricity consumption goes up even while total energy consumption stays the same or drops. I'm not necessarily saying that nuclear is the solution, but it's a solution that can at least buy us a few decades for renewables and energy storage to catch up to demand.

Not to mention, who is in control of making the tests? Mental health/aptitude tests have had a history of being at least a little bit racist, kinda like the old 'intelligence' tests that were designed to prevent black people from voting.

The image sensor is square... it should just shoot 1:1 scale and let you crop it to an orientation later
