most transit buses are also larger and/or heavier, with larger engines that burn more fuel.

being a convicted felon would make him eminently more qualified to be a republican candidate for office.
they also rely on those big cities they hate so much to provide some of the funding for the services and infrastructure they no-doubt take for granted.
a shift of ~ 240k people from oregon to idaho would result in oregon going back down to 5 congressional districts, and idaho gaining one for three. so one electoral vote moves from a reliably-democratic state to a republican one. that one elector could very well swing a presidential election.
iirc, changes to state boundaries requires approval of both states and congress (and also the president, who would have to sign-off on the legislation passed there). oregon would never go for it--not entirely sure idaho would be on-board, either, even with the thought of gaining a congressional seat. providing state services and funding to that region would be a perpetual net-drain on idaho's economy.
not to worry, it won't be long until "after almost 29 years..."
verizon did the same thing awhile ago, and it was more than five bucks a month.
was still cheaper for us to keep the old plan than to switch to a new "unlimited" one, though.
easy there, we have enough climate problems without the sun going supernova on us.
usb nvme adapters are not expensive and it likely won't be the only time you need it. they are a handy accessory to have on hand if you have nvme storage.
don't mess around with imaging to a file on the zfs, then restoring it. simply clone nvme -> nvme using a usb nvme adapter then replace the internal with the clone.
same deal with the far-right alternatives to aarp. just scamming money from america's most gullible.
that's not a 'problem' everywhere.
if they dump the free refills here and still take 15 minutes to make a simple order, i'm going elsewhere. i've already cut way down because of cost and time, i'll just forget they exist entirely. three competitors are literally adjacent. all three also have free refills, and all three can beat mcdonalds service times. prices are basically the same now, mcdonalds hasn't had that advantage since before covid.
patents is what you're thinking of. and all (afaik) of them relating to mp3 format have expired.
