The easy way to get them to ignore you is to bug them. I am still waiting a response, promised "Shortly" in a letter dated Apr 2013. They have ignored my complaint letters. However, it does mean they daren't contact me again as I could reasonably bring up their incompetence. Pools Panel: Goalless Dr...

The Russians have left their worst troops on the Left Bank of the Dnipro. Yesterday they decided to send some ordinary troops out to move some anti-tank mines the Ukrainians had left. That the Ukes might have left grenades under some of the anti-tank mines, with the lever of the grenade held down on...

Brakes, wheels, suspension, etc will require more maintenance due to the increased mass, and also be more expensive. One of the major problems with EVs appears to be battery pack damage from minor collisions, which also results in higher insurance costs, sometimes much higher. https://www.ctvnews.ca...

*Initial print run already sold out in Iran. 2nd edition in print at our press in Tel Aviv.

Interesting, but my apologies. I meant to say EV mechanics.
There are none here. None of the dealerships sell EVs either. I understand it may be the cost of the EV-specific equipment and training vs the number of EV sales.

Great.
Anecdotal data is all we really have now.
Arizona is as close to ideal as it gets for EV use/charging, rural Canada about the worst.
I'd be interested in sales, and his business model too.
What's the local situation like for mechanics?

Only the $10,000 Chinese EV will actually make a difference. Selling one for a bit less than current new vehicles is just window dressing. Most people drive used vehicles, and indeed have never owned a new vehicle. There is no significant used EV market. The used EV dealers here went from 3 to 1 to ...

Today's US GDP data was not only lower than the consensus, but lower than any of the estimates. Today's US Core inflation data was not only higher than the consensus, but higher than any of the estimates. For at least 9 months, the central banks and governments have been saying they are data-depende...

I have noticed on a few videos that Russian citizens do start heading to cover if their side starts firing at the drones. There has been some evidence that the missiles and shells fired by their own side DO end up in civilian areas, including Russian SAMs sticking out of house walls, plus of course ...

Thanks for the translation, it was pretty much what the tone and graphics had already told me. I am curious, since the Ukrainians having been hitting places up to 1,500 km into Russia already, why this should be a big thing. Is it because ATACMS is more accurate, or because the Russians have been pr...

..anoint a successor who's even worse!

Hamas Yousufa, Joe Biden, John Major, etc.

Yes, I see that as the trade-off also. They will keep hitting Russian domestic/military storage, but not refineries. And with ATACMS now available, more than 100 already according to a US official today, I think the Ukes did the right thing in attacking the refineries when they did. There are a coup...

I believe that Dante would have had a Platform/Level 9-3/4 for scrotes who steal copper from railways

CNN is wrong, I am right. Boeing's new rating is Baa3

https://www.moodys.com/credit-ratings/B ... 050?cy=can

Moody's just downrated Boeing to Baa3, one level above Junk, with a negative outlook.
Stock dropped 7.5% on the news.

Signed!

I would suggest a gravity fed solution. It is much cheaper. Most prepackaged watering systems (e.g. Orbit, above) are designed for pressurised systems, i.e. from mains water, and the fancy timers won't work with a low pressure, gravity system. You can buy battery powered timers suitable for such low...

There is now an Apple Migration Assistant.
With a title like that you'd maybe expect them to provide you with a rubber dinghy and an asylum claim form, but apparently it does data transfer from Windows to Mac

Oh yes. Copper is very stealable, worldwide. Quite a lot of thieves will steal it whilst it's live.
Not all of them have insulating gloves.

EVs, data centres and AI will only increase demand in the future.
