It isn’t making anyone less radical, thats for sure.

Great job they got Harvey Weinstein. It was’t started for no reason. (Not that you said that, but I think thats where down votes are coming from).

I don’t know how we got from that to "“Women DON’T lie about rape” and the U. VA disaster. Or “mattress girl” who did the big stunt of carrying a mattress around her college campus and saying “this is the mattress I was raped on”. At some point her text messages came out in court and it became pretty clear that not only had she had consensual sex with the guy (another student in the dorms), but she was a sex pest herself. She wanted a second hookup and when he said no, she threatened to tell everyone he raped her. Which she did, making it a national news story thanks to #MeToo.

To this day, Wikipedia has an extremely one-sided story with glaring omissions.

This is actually something I don’t understand when this argument is brought up. Havent they both been killing each other since well before the modern period?

It made a little more sense when the argument was that Hamas is bad, but that doesn’t justify collateral damage to Palestinian civilians when targeting them. But it seems to me the rhetoric I see often has switched to making excuses for Hamas, who directly tries to kill children whenever they get the opportunity, including putting their own Palestinian civilians in the line of fire to confuse attacks against them and get them killed as “martyrs”. Which they use to justify their actions, even though they caused it.

I don’t see how Israel’ careless around getting noncombatants killed justifies deliberately targeting civilians, which Hamas does constantly, or doing things like putting a rocket launcher on top of a hospital just so it looks bad for Israel when they destroy it. It’s not like Hamas wants a peaceful two-state solution and Israel just isn’t playing along. And theres not a lot of anti-Hamas sentiment in Gaza since they get murdered by Hamas, and they did vote them in in the first place.

She hosted Motaz Azaiza, the “journalist” who frequently praises Hamas, and was present with Hamas at the October 7th attack itself. So I correct myself, he only might have participated in directly killing civilians and children, but he was at least hanging out with his friends when they were doing that.

“The Israelis hit civilians when destroying the rocket launcher we put on top of a hospital, so it’s okay for us the paraglide into a music concert and just start killing and raping”

Remember the guy at Autozone who stood there insisting your car needs four spark plugs, even after you told him you have a V6? Because “the computer says so right here”?

I wonder what even the non-schizophrenic ones will do with AI.

She did a sing along with a hamas member who probably killed kids the same age as the children watching her content.

Oh boy. Let me run my comment through chatgpt first. Get a few em dashes in there.

That looks like more than 80 pounds. Well, maybe it’s hollow.

So, I’m going off of talking to mechanics and a lot of YouTube. But theres a few ways to slice it.

Most batteries aren’t experiencing total failures, which was more common on your electric cars of 15+ years ago (think Nissan leaf). But they lose capacity as they are used. 25% after 5 years is common. After 10 years it could be 50%. An EV advertised with 300 miles of range only really gets 250 from a full charge when it’s really cold out, by the time it’s a 10 year old car that could be anywhere from 90-140 miles depending on how the battery is holding up. And it still takes just as long to charge to 100%.

When a car loses this much performance, most people would say it “needs” a new battery. Not really sure how long cars manufactured 2020 and later are going to last before a complete failure on average, it might be 15-20 years. But even after the first couple years they are losing performance.

This is why EVs fetch extremely low prices used, and a lot of people recommend leasing rather than buying them. Because you can’t make or fix a battery at home, and the price of a new battery is $10k-$20k on a car that, probably, is starting to get other issues and has little or no service availability (since most owners are junking them).

So currently, a $30k Corolla is going to be worth far more 5 years after purchase than an $80k whatever EV you care to name.
