It's pretty easy to say that it is constitutional, actually. I think dealing with national scale black markets is a great justification for the existence of the interstate commerce clause, but people are realizing that this particular case, marijuana prohibition, is not a good fight and the fight has massive negative consequences.
This is actually a widely-used credit payment processor, particularly by local businesses, so this is definitely a change that will have a fairly wide-reaching impact.
Ah, but imagine the potential for this technology to expand to be able to be used flexible products later. Now if you can get another advancement in getting the chips onto a flexible surface, you don't end up with a giant block at the end of a flexible screen on all sorts of things, most notably phones.
Not only that, but I'd take the fire overall being "you're pretty much out of a car now" regardless as to what causes it, so a lower percentage overall is what really matters. Once you combine that with the battery fire being slower to progress towards a person who needs to get out ASAP, it's clear the Tesla can be a winner if the data comes out statistically showing that this is true over time.
How is allowing (not requiring - they don't have to participate in the exchanges) insurance companies around the country to compete in a marketplace seizing control of a full sixth of the economy?
The US loses a substantial number of its' best players to the other countries in the WBC, despite them playing in the MLB. For example, the MVPs in 2009 and 2013 were playing in the MLB at the time, despite playing for Japan and Cuba in the WBC. There are also some odd rules that aren't found in the MLB, like a hard pitch count limit (which happens to be stupidly low too - only 65 in the first round, 80 in the second, 85 in qualifiers, 95 in the championships), and 2 runners start on bases in extra innings past the 12th.
I think that once we start seeing driverless cars become mainstream, we'll see a development where it can avoid a pack of dumbasses with a spray can as well.
It's actually not nationalism. Most of those players aren't from the USA; they just play in this particular league, which makes the MLB the de facto premier league. Americans probably aren't any better or worse at baseball than anyone else with a substantial farm system, but the guys at the top of other national leagues don't stay in there, they move to the MLB.
There's only one team from a country neighboring the US. It's not a worldwide event. Even the NHL, which has the most teams outside the US of the big 4 (7 teams in Canada), doesn't try to portray itself as a worldwide championship.
I think the reason that baseball gets away with calling it a world championship despite being geographically limited is that baseball is only really popular in a few countries. Obviously the US, with Japan and some South American countries....and that's it. Compounding that, there's a history of getting the best talent from those regions to join the MLB, so what's left in those countries isn't usually their premier talent.
What? Pokemon saved the N64? What console are you talking about? You know the only Pokemon games for N64 were Pokemon Stadium 1+2, Puzzle League and Pokemon Snap, right? All games that were released well after most of the the N64 killer games, Super Mario 64, Ocarina of Time, Mario Kart, Goldeneye, Smash Bros...hell, the best selling of the Pokemon games, Pokemon Stadium 1, didn't even beat Diddy Kong Racing in sales.
I dunno, my Scion FR-S (Toyota 86/GT86/FT86 elsewhere) isn't limited at least until 110mph. In New Jersey, opportunities to go that fast are rare, let alone faster.
I mean, Tesla's core competency is definitely cars, but it's not like they're unfamiliar with software development. It's quite different rolling your own when you're just an auto maker with no history in software. Not only do Tesla's cars require more software and firmware than the traditional "competition", but they also have leadership which is absolutely competent in software development.
I mean, granted, Congress has a history of changing the rules to favor the major party, but it is better than the absolute freedom of the parties to move whoever they want to any committee without reason beyond "number of years serving in Senate".
In the US, the only thing I could think of that doesn't fundamentally change the structure of the government away from a democracy is to institute rules for house and senate committee appointments that require prior experience in the general field covered by the committee for representatives and senators appointed to that committee. For example, you can't be placed on the finance committee without some experience or a degree in economics.
It would be an improvement, although it wouldn't solve the problem completely. Solving it completely would require some kinds of rules regarding who can run for office (i.e. require a bachelor's degree), but that doesn't seem reasonable as it changes the government from a relatively open to anyone model to a model where only relatively higher class individuals can run for office.
Yeah, I didn't realize it until he got to the point of his story either, but it's about an energy company dealing in fuel products rather than operating power plants.

Only the store is donating to Red Cross. You can continue buying bundles, since they tell you exactly who it's going to for each sale.
Yeah, it's a fixed amount (10%) though, unlike buying into Humble bundles.

Thankfully, this time prohibition exists, it's not an amendment, which is much harder to get rid of than a law.
As it turns out, a boot also goes in a trunk. /ducks

There are some more recent numbers than those.

Yes, and giving power to the right, who are all for building up military might, isn't placing people in a position of power in the government at all.
I'm not so sure that women would be accepted into most of these leagues at all.

Funny how anyone pretends to care about right and wrong, but will create a police state if you give them the chance.
FTFY.

An Ariel Atom is also pretty much the absolute bare minimum you can call a "car".

Septic systems are relatively rare in Europe, so I doubt that this will be a problem, especially in the urbanized areas they're targeting.
