You can buy special brake light kits to do this automatically.

Visa and Mastercard, yes. Amex and Discover are both network and bank.

I firmly believe some people emit some sort of electromagnetic interference that we don’t have a reliable way to measure yet that makes technology buggy in their hands. My spouse is one such person. I’ve watched them from across the room do exactly the right steps and not have it work. Then hand it to me and it works instantly. There’s no logical reason for this. Their mere presence near by can make some things error it seems. It’s given me a lot more patience when people describe problems that should be impossible.

There was a short period of time where California required manufacturers to produce EVs. No one was ready for it so they produced bare minimums to stay in compliance.

There are very few of these still on the road. Ford likes to act like the MachE and Lightning are their first EVs, but they had Fusions, Focuses, and Rangers in EV platforms in that era.

Their “car” is a fiberglass body on a motorcycle based frame. I think it will technically register as a motorcycle, while working out manufacturing they are also dealing with that legality so that people don’t have to wear helmets while driving it. So it’s super light, and super aerodynamic. The 1000 mi thing is also a bit of marketing glass as it’s a very specific use case that allows it to charge quite a lot of from the solar panel during that 1000 miles. Think like 100 miles a day over 10 days. It’s still going to suit a specific set of drivers almost perfectly and be a great commuter/grocery getter. IF they ever make it to mass production.

They can volunteer for it all they want, but no school is going to actually let them fill the role. No school administrator is prepared to deal with the fallout that would come from it. Huge props to any principal that attempts it though.

Desperately hopeful he might face some consequences and she’d be the only option left.

Initially? Audio has the camera person saying “Let me see your best moose impression” or something like that. Likely just friends being dorks around each other.

Rare opportunity for multiple level pun, I had to take it, even if other’s don’t seem to appreciate the joke.

Grandma’s empty threat punishment to all my cousins: “I’m gonna jerk a knot in your tail”

When something would strike you with immediate worry, like almost falling off a cliff, real ass-clenching moments, she would say: “That really pulled your pucker string”

Love and miss that woman.

Unless we’re related, this one isn’t just your family.

Whoa, didn’t see that coming.
