The primary reason to get rid of the headphone jack on phones, is because the amount of empty space it takes up, which could be used for something else, or allow for enough space for battery expansion, and prevent explosions (Note 7).
I guess that's why a solitary hardware hacker was able to put a headphone jack in the iPhone 7... Because there was all that empty space in the non-headphone-equipped iPhone. The lack of a headphone jack has nothing to do with batteries or explosions or other stuff, it's about pushing sales of Bluetooth headphones - Airpods and Beats, specifically.
You're welcome. She seems to get a lot of grace to "walk back" her errors... Most politicians would be pilloried for the amount of walking back she does...
If you're in the State of California, you're running a risk. If the mechanic is injured in your garage, you could be liable for covering his medical costs. A floor that is not completely flat, or if you have inadequate lighting, could be construed as negligence on your part. And using just a jack without jackstands is definitely dangerous.
Here on/. having a corporation dictate all terms of your interaction with their product is terrible and worth massive amounts of derision. Except Tesla, where they should be able to dictate where you can buy, where and who can service it, and when you'll actually get the features (or even the car) you ordered.
So it won't be "Medicare For All", it is "tear down the entire thing - Government and private funded - and build something brand-new that we don't have now nor can explain at this time"... That's a pretty big promise...
Which country in Europe has a socialist economy? Scandinavia is unabashedly capitalist in economic models. They have a strong social safety net on which they spend their taxes, but their economic systems are capitalist, full-stop.
China started to grow when Deng Xiaoping implemented capitalist reforms into the socialist economic model, but it's since stalled and is on the cusp of collapse because of centralized command-and-control (as required by socialism) of the banks, telecom, and others. Laos and Vietnam? They thrive because they are cheaper resource bases than China. So I will grant that socialism IS great for exploiting people...
So she spouts off, and then has to later clarify what she says, right? In other words - as the original GP stated - she doesn't think deeply when she speaks, and she has to later refine and clarify her statements after thinking about it. That's the point. I am glad you have come to the same conclusion!
She should thank the heavens her neighborhood has been relabeled Medical Park. That had to add at least 30% to the value of homes - it's prime, medical space with rich doctors all around!
$32.6 trillion over 10 years for Medicare For All. And that's based on Medicare spending rates, which are 60% of what hospitals and doctors charge private insurance. How do we pay for that? Do you think doctors and hospitals will all accept a 40% cut in revenue (and a much higher cut in actual profit) simply because?
Twelve years to Climageddon. Medicare For All by just paying for it. You can move millions from a PAC to a private LLC without concern. Unemployment is low because everyone is working two jobs. Need I go on?
Well, to cover Medicare For All, we'd have to increase Medicare revenues from ~$290 billion to about eleven times that. And then the rate would have to be increased another 25% to account for your cut in hours. So rather than paying 1.45% for Medicare, everyone will have to pay around 21%. So every worker gets to pay an additional ~19.5% tax on every dollar they make. Between Medicare For All and Social Security, each worker will pay 28% of their wages. Double that for the self-employed, as they have to pay both halves (the half paid by the worker and the half paid by the employer). So self-employed folks will hand over nearly 60% of their revenue before we even start discussing Federal income taxes, let alone State income taxes...
The report does not contain the word gender. The summary does. Makes me think that - like most things from the UN - the report says the opposite of the summary, and the summary is the political statement that is spread through the media (for example, did you realize the IPCC reports actually state that climate is too chaotic to accurately model - but the well-publicized summaries state otherwise?). Gender inequality is in the summary - it's not in the report. How did it get into the summary?
Well he's got to do something with the massive number of Model 3s sitting around being charged with diesel generators. Might as well put them in a tunnel!
China has twice the CO2 output as the US. And it's projected to keep climbing. The US has flat-to-falling emissions. If you don't want to make China's CO2 output a priority, then you're not serious about CO2 as a source of climate change.
And yet - China emits twice the CO2 as the US. If you want to say CO2 is the problem, then you MUST address China's massive CO2 output. Any discussion that does not address their output is simply worthless.

Too bad that Apple couldn't do what Lil' Wayne and Samsung did...
More room.

Suspension repairs. Brake jobs. New tires. Equipment and need for a lift pretty much required for any car - ICE or EV.
Would love to be able to tell my local utility how to constrain costs, like yours.

Twelve years to Climageddon. You just pay for it. Just illegally shuffle money between PACs and LLCs. Unemployment is low because everyone is working two jobs. Need I go on?

A meme for you, but it's actually quite accurate.

Apparently you weren't at this last CES... It was nearly always packed. Best way to get from the Convention center to the Venetian exhibits!

I wonder how gender inequality affects climate change. Seriously.
China has twice the CO2 output as the US. And it's projected to keep climbing. The US has flat-to-falling emissions. If you don't want to make China's CO2 output a priority, then you're not serious about CO2 as a source of climate change.

Hey now, wait a minute... Until I get my spice rubs and BBQ sauce ready, there will be NO cow burning!
This is getting almost as ludicrous as "ancient astronaut theorists say yes".
