As someone who fondly remembers all the time spent with my father flying model
airplanes and racing cars and motorcycles, I admit to a certain sentimentality
associated with loud engines and the smell of nitromethane. But I am more than
happy to create new memories as I leave those things in
I had a deposit on one. I got a phone call in January from the dealer to get
the process started, but by then my wife and I had decided that it was more
important for me to retire than to buy a vehicle. As I recall the price on
offer from Jubilee Ford in Saskatoon was in line with MSRP.
From the snippet you included:
"a pickup that can travel 145 miles (235 kilometers) on electricity"
That's enough that I would use the engine about 15 times a year. Maybe only 2
or 3 times a year, since most of my destinations have charging available.
I'm torn. Those 2 or 3 times are necessary
As a Canadian, I can tell you that buying land in Canada ain't gonna cut it. In
relation to the size of our country, the bulk our currently arable land is
shockingly close to the US border and is rapidly looking to teeter on the edge
of viability.
Go a bit farther north and you run into

That is the main reason I switched from trying to convince people to pay
attention to the problems we're creating to trying to just get people to think
beyond themselves and beyond what they

such thing as society, only men and women,"
If I'm not mistaken, that, or something like it, was said by UK Prime Minister
c. 1980. That is why anytime I hear people talking about various environmental
or resource tipping points, I interject with my comment that real tipping
I rarely have much to contribute here, so I hope I got the reply addressing
correct and hope I'm not straying too far afield.
I'm a retired programmer. In 2010, I started looking into Bitcoin. I don't want
to plug things up with my reasons or conclusions, but one of the things I
looked at was
The width was one of my thoughts, too. I know of a couple of urban bridges
where the "bike lane" is actually a single shared sidewalk. It's been several
years since I lived there and used those routes, but as I recall it required
care for two standard wheelchairs or mobility scooters to get
Just spitballing here...
What about VIN equivalents in the adapter itself or manufacturers building
their charge ports and in-vehicle networking to Tesla specs?
All of this stuff is well over my head, but having written Palm Pilot programs
that interface with mainframe systems, it strikes me

My flipper zero is still en route, so I can't say for sure, but my reading of
radio specs and capabilities is that anything subject to "attack" by the FZ is
badly designed or incorrectly implemented.
This is not to say that people don't do questionable things with it, but as a
long time
Regarding pedal misapplication, I think you nailed it. I'm a pretty old guy, so
my driver training might have been different than what is available now.
Driver training #1: my dad was an amateur stock car racer and stunt driver. He
taught us quite a few neat things. One of the things he taught
