So cash doesn't suddenly mean cash, but rather anything but cash? Why wasn't he simply told the accepted payment options? Surely they can provide accurate information, for example a bank account and payment code (I don't know how it works in the US, but we have several) for a money transfer?
If modern gadgets are prone to causing addiction, why would you ban only one extremely specific thing they can get you addicted to? Isn't that, like, a massive hypocrisy?
what men want to be like, more than what women want to look at
I'd rather trust real-world data than your naive idealism. I'm pretty sure most people will. And real-world data says that women are on average significantly more demanding.
It's because women on a slut walk choose to dress that way and choose to be there. They have agency, they are empowering themsleves by protesting against what they consider to be a harmful myth.
Exactly! Only in religion must be bearded geezers allowed to tell women what they can wear. For anybody else, it's absolutely haram.
Many of them have no real personality or story
I'd argue that the same goes for male characters, too. Hell, a cynic might even say it's the same with real-world people.
Which is absolutely ridiculous if that help actually didn't happen. But then again, the US has been kidnapping people for all sort of things, so... I guess imperialism is still alive and kicking!
So it's fine for someone in another country to crack US computers, infect them with ransomware, SWAT Americans, blackmail them, or any number of awful things that can be done remotely?
Sounds like a fair deal to me, in light of past US internatinal involvement.
Somehow, I find it difficult to believe Elon Musk *really* put all the effort his did into Tesla because he felt it was necessary to help counter climate change.
Did it really? The first vehicle had 244 miles of range. The *standard* model 3 has 220 or 240 miles of range, almost the same. The long range version is at 320 miles. I'd think that this is definitely progress, as is most likely the reliability and lifetime of the battery pack.
That's what I meant by limiting the warranty repairs. Not all units behave the same. This means there's a spread of operational behavior between individual units, and that means that longer average battery life means fewer outliers falling below the warranty terms.

You Americans have the weirdest things in finance. For example, credit bureaus. For us, it's virtually an extraterrestrial notion.

And when you started coughing out blood at the people around you on the tramway, it was called "conspicuous consumption".
I'd be massively pissed off if someone told me to bring A, and then, when I did exactly that, told me that I was actually supposed to bring B.

Try to have a rational discussion with a liberal about GMO, the heritability of intelligence
Well, as a biology-challenged conservative, you obviously can't do anyway, so...
Actually, according to this administration, "science is a Democrat thing". So, no.
"Usually" is a ridiculous benchmark for top level sport. There's nothing in it related to "usual" performance.
The physical location of making the offer? That was inside the embassy, apparently.

More like faster, but bigger would have helped, too.

Because people never have good intentions?
Tesla included? ;)
As such it is the shareholders who are responsible and who should be on trial. It is the shareholder's will that the CEO was executing.
That sounds a bit too much like "I was only following orders" to be true.
If the entire EU is blocked from accessing all content on Google, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter and every other social media and news site...
...they'd be much better off. People would stop wasting their time on all that garbage.
AMD had to do that since they were getting too many too-good chips. They didn't even bother with fusing anything off in some cases.
Here's an idea: If you don't do that, you don't have to juggle your inventory if you misjudge the near-future demand.
You need to strip down the entire car to remove the engine from its compartment? Like you'd need with Tesla's batteries?

It did do that, it seems. $40k is still less than $80k which was still less than $120k had been before. It's only a matter of "when", not "if".
Example, please? I work in high-volume consumer electronics and I've never seen this done.
You've "never seen it done" in high-volume consumer electronics? You've never seen a desktop Intel i5, then?
