In the Hyundai ionx 6, you can set the driving mode you prefer. Regular mode with accelerator and brake, and four different levels of regenerative braking, or a special mode that only uses one pedal.
You can also select the driving mode, so the extreme acceleration is only available if you choose “sports mode”.
There was a pedophile priest who had the parents of a boy he molested complain to the bishop. The bishop, in his wisdom, moved him to be a teacher in my school. An all-boys boarding school. A few years after I was there, he was convicted of molesting a boy at the school, as well as the original case. His sentence was 2 years of probation. He died in his 90s just a couple of years ago, and his obituary was full of praise and warm memories.
Meanwhile, one of the boys in my class who I now can see was being groomed by this priest, took his own life before he was 50, after what was described as a very difficult life. I think it’s pretty obvious why.
In the 40+ years since I left that high school, no one from the school or the diocese has ever contacted me or my family to see if we saw or experienced any abuse.
Not to mention the literally billions of birds that are killed every year by cats in the US.
I believe that it burns, but it doesn’t explode.
As observed by that legendary grammarian Dave Barry.
I have two words for you: ice cream.
I rest my case.
In Sesotho, a language of Southern Africa, there are no swear words, however there are insults that (I was told) may cause someone to want to fight or even kill you.
Those insults:
Let me know when you find a movement that is not kinetic!
people they’ve given no other choice or recourse
I don’t know, I find I also have the option to not consume media that I can’t pay for or justify ethically. For instance, the only streaming service we have a subscription for is The Criterion Channel.
For about 1 year my two sons and I played Rock Band, mostly The Beatles, everyday when they came home from school. At least an hour each day. We played other versions of Rock Band, but the Beatles was easily our favorite.
It directly led one of them to learn the piano and eventually get a master’s degree in composing, and the other to enjoy playing in bands and performing in musical theatre.
Where we are, these things are stupidly expensive. Almost twice the cost of normal oreos. Is there something there you see something no there’s nothing
I get three to five spam emails every day from Republican agents asking “Patriots” to send money to help defend against the woke liberals. They keep changing the subjects and domains sent from, so it is difficult to block them effectively.
The kicker is that I live in Canada, and have never lived in the US or been eligible to vote in a US election.
The thing is that Trump doesn’t understand subtlety, and public displays of fealty are what really get him off.
Just have a look at what’s going on in ukraine. Once they started using drones, the drone were attacked through their wireless connections. Now they trail fiber optic cables for control. What does that say about the relative reliability and security?
I’m still using my Amazfit Bip. When new, it could go 6 weeks on a single charge. After about 7 years, I still get about 2 weeks – enough for me not to bother looking for a replacement.
They also took into account that a certain number of the workers would die from accidents and disease (see: the Panama Canal) and they were okay with that.
This makes me think of Inform, which compiles English sentences into interactive fiction.
You can also buy travel bidets. Basically squeeze bottles that you can direct to the right places. Not as good as an actual bidet, but better than nothing.
In 1996 I got a copy of Yggdrasil Linux as a CD in the back of a large book, about 1,000 pages. I believe that it was simply a printout of all the man pages, although it might have had instructions on installing and basic Linux usage.
I think this is known as “Fargonation”.
