They are constructing a fisher price GOLD Tesla for trump as we speak no doubt. To be delivered in person awkwardly for some PR video Apple style.

We just need tucking trains and public transport in cities. Rural areas are under separate requirements. It's that easy, but we've built cities for failure for a while now. We "send our prayers" each time a kid biking to school is run over and then complain when the number of lanes on the freeway is not expanded to accommodate the ever increasing number of cars or speed limits don't allow for deadlier crashes because our commute from a poorly designed suburb to a poorly designed city increases by 5 minutes.

Edit: rant is not directed at you. Just frustrated with the US in general when looking at the needs of the general population.

Or built for a different market, like 90s Hondas/Nissans etc. which assumed every country was as safe as Japan when it came to car theft. Nowadays its mostly profit driven. Security is not cheap and can add it's own set of headaches (security vs convenience).

Edit: Nissan still sucked at it from what I remember hearing of those and some kias being the main target near where we lived.

You didn't buy the upgraded package the stereo told you about, that's why: https://www.newsweek.com/stellantis-dodge-car-drivers-adverts-pop-ups-2045033

As someone with an n100, I did have to spend on an apple TV to have a hardware accelerated client for some of the harder to transcode content (h265 4k at higher bit rates). N100 will absolutely choke on some of those even with hardware acceleration enabled.

He goes into detail on some of the videos, but to summarize the "controversial" videos due less well when it comes to recouping the money it takes to film them (if at all). They (often):

  • have to account for more travel expenses to interview people
  • can't be sponsored since no one wants to sign up for those kinds of pieces and depend on ad revenue alone
  • can include additional legal costs (have lawyers review things, etc. )
  • for things that are time sensitive, they can also mess with the work life balance of the team and the regularly scheduled content they've been working on
  • stress from dealing with mega corps with the money to ruin you as a side quest

Good ol' orange market.

Plus everyone else that pays taxes as they will have to continue to pay for unemployment insurance, food stamps, rent assistance, etc (not the CEOs and execs that caused it that's for sure).

Even America's test kitchen compares air fryers to mini convection ovens from what I recall. I'd trust them over someone random that seems to just want to be technically correct. The main advantage they have is the small area which can heat up quicker, but the way the function is equivalent for most definitions.
