I was alluding to the fact that it is mostly treasuries when I said it wouldn't be worth a trillion dollars anymore; they can certainly choose to start selling the treasuries on the open market, but if they do it hard and fast, they will obliterate the value in the process.
That's an incident or two, you know full well I'm talking about a pattern.
And it isn't as if I am spouting off about how it couldn't possibly be the cars, I'm spouting off about how many of the incidents are probably the drivers.
I'm just being nasty, so it isn't real important that you understand. But your recent posts tend towards the latter, posts from a while ago tend towards the former.
Yes, but if there is a mechanical linkage to the brakes and no system on the brake pedal that would prevent the driver from actuating the brakes, we need an explanation as to why NHTSA is not talking about the extreme wear that they found on the brakes on all the cars (even if the various drivers were not strong enough to use unaided brakes to stop the cars, they should have been strong enough to really mess up the brake pads).
So maybe there was a software glitch, but how come they aren't talking about the physical evidence that should probably be there if it really was a software glitch?
I think that the Chinese government doesn't see the U.S. as being particularly high up on their list of problems.
We present some competition for resources, but they are thinking about that in terms of simply having enough for their people, not in terms of beating us (and the only resource we really have a lot more of than they do is clean freshwater, something that is going to be a little bit difficult to just take away).
So because you don't care and have no imagination, no one else can try to create spaces that are somewhere in between the current definitions of public and private (one such space would be a space where mass-surveillance was not permitted)?
Ha-ha Jonesy, you stepped out of the shroud, you're fucked now.
China is buying U.S. debt so that U.S. consumption can fuel their economic growth, placating the populace.
Deeper analysis than that is delusional. If China tries too hard to call in their trillion dollar marker, it won't be worth a trillion dollars anymore, so it really isn't as big a risk as you paint.
Why is it good? Because each dollar of medical spending can then consume a greater amount of medical care.
There are lots of distortions where individuals don't get a full range of choices, but unless you keep a rather large garden and like to saw your own lumber, you actually love trade.
Really, the question doesn't make a great deal of sense in modern biology (which has lost the obsession with species). Certainly when peering back through history there is a first egg that contained an individual capable of interbreeding with modern chickens, but that individual could also probably interbreed with most of the population that it was born into.
And if you set aside the chicken part of the question, eggs probably started happening when early multicellular organisms either started splitting off from their parents before they were fully grown, or when the parents organism started encapsulating the child growing inside of them.
No one has posted anything even resembling evidence that pedal error is more frequent in Toyotas than in other vehicles. I agree that it is a big deal if it is, but it there isn't enough information available to make that determination.
I misunderstood what you said. That isn't exactly the same as being confused.
I would respond to your clarification by saying that most receivers would probably rather be able to check up on the filter than they would trust the sender to fix the problem (for instance, imagine the fun nightmares that begin when a personal relation that the receiver doesn't care to offend starts sending them spam).
People want fast, easy access to most of their real mail with the ability to easily check-up on the automated system some of the time.
Not having a spam system at all defeats the fast and easy parts of accessing the real mail, and I'm not sure there is an easier way to check-up on the system than to examine the messages that it classifies as spam.
You are correct that this occasionally moves a legitimate email into the spam folder, but apparently the typical person would rather put up with this than constantly deal with each and every spam message.
O.k., so we have established that there might be an industry standard for a decent enough design (your how-low-can-we-go silliness denied any such thing as even being reasonable) and that we aren't sure if Toyota meets that standard or not, but we still are talking about making something foolproof, something that isn't particularly likely to ever happen with an automobile.
We can certainly make things as foolproof as possible, but we are still going to have to face situations where we have to admit that nothing could have saved the particular decision maker from themselves.
Professionally I don't do any. And I am a mediocre mechanic. But NHTSA wouldn't be coming out and saying these things if there was any indication that the brakes were worn in a way that the pedal was being manually depressed but not receiving boost (and if the mechanical system linking the brake pedal to the brakes was broken on any of the vehicles, they would be perp-walking Toyota).

The new-agey claptrap was a lot more fun than the anti-new-worlder paranoia.
He's also underestimating the credit card transaction fee.
You really think they put force feedback systems into brake pedals?
They'll just show you competitors products, or made up products.

What if it is just a charge for not putting termites in your phone?
Either provide some links or admit that you had an awesome dream.
You can even link cspan video transcripts.

If you don't believe in macro-evolution, you should accept that you should not post in biology related anything.
Also, hoojey-boojey, rah-rah-rah, a smickle a smackle, biffle dah!

It's a misguided question that demonstrates a lack of understanding of the difference between linear units and area units.
Perhaps it is 0.9 meters or so on a side?
As if any of the pics on adult friend finder are real.

Mind linking a couple of them?
