This is super great to see. Normally my home state just follows whatever California passes since we’re a much smaller market, but this time they’re really moving things forward for consumer repairability.

Also, just really reinforces how much I hate Kathy Hochul for absolutely neutering NY’s right to repair bill. Glad I don’t have her as my governor anymore.

The bill they passed would keep us on standard time though, so you’re still stuck with 4:30pm sunsets in Dec/Jan. I’d rather stick with the current system until we can get permanent DST.

Not having access to natural light is what really drives me insane. During the winter, it’s possible to spend all your daylight hours at work, so you basically alternate between harsh artificial light and darkness.

You live in the most expensive region of the country but you only pay $20k in rent? Is your idea of “most expensive” Akron or something?

Deception is just around the corner. Choose those around you wisely.

Stopping the aid might not stop him but heavy sanctions definitely would.

Curbside trash is a problem in NYC. Officials have a not-so-novel fix: plastic bins (www.npr.org)

On a recent fall morning in central Harlem, stacks of plastic garbage bags filled the sidewalks in front of the well-kept brownstones. Some of the black bags leaked brownish-gray liquid, others sat intermingled with discarded furniture. Several contained ragged holes in the sides, where they’d been chewed through by rats the...

I always felt so bad for the sanitation workers who had to spend all day picking up heavy bags of trash and throwing them in the back of the truck.

Federal employees can’t strike, but other state and local public sector unions absolutely can.

Seems like he just wanted to seem tough for the election back in May. The whole defender of Islam thing probably garnered him a few extra votes among conservative and moderate voters.

Iran's foreign minister warns Israel from Beirut it could suffer 'a huge earthquake' (apnews.com)

Iran’s foreign minister on Saturday called on Israel to stop its attacks on Gaza, warning that the war might expand to other parts of the Middle East if Hezbollah joins the battle, and that would make Israel suffer “a huge earthquake.”...

I me ver payed attention to the campaign plot, but are you sure Turkey is CSAT? They’re definitely a NATO country irl

Frequent delays. Poor frequency. Weird routes. Slow average speeds that can barely compete with a bus. Always getting bogged down by track-sharing with freight.

The Northeast corridor is the only section of the entire system that is even remotely decent and is basically subsidizing the crappy lines that they are congressionally mandated to run so it’s not even that cost competitive with other modes.

To be fair, most of this isn’t Amtrak’s fault but just a reflection of the fact that America doesn’t care about passenger rail.

I mean that’s basically Las Vegas.

Erdogan received nearly 33 hours of airtime on the main state-run TV station, according to opposition members of the broadcasting watchdog, while his presidential opponent, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, received 32 minutes.

Not exactly what most of us would call a fair election.

THIS is a 2023 guinea pig. Today I’m gonna show you all of its quirks and features and then I’m going to give it a DougScore.

If they want their new EVs to be eligible federal tax credit, the cars need to undergo final assembly in the US. Not to mention we just went through a pandemic that showed us the weaknesses of shipping all our manufacturing to third world countries.

Are we still pretending that China is a socialist country? Their social safety net is much worse than the US, which is regarding among the worst of OECD countries. I guess they still have a red and yellow flag so must be socialist utopia right?

Clearly no Oregonians in this thread. Everyone I’ve met in Oregon loves that they don’t have to pump their own gas.
