@Jalopnik Dont know if you're talking engines now or over the course of automotive history. But I will say that I feel the old Ford. 300 I-6 didnt get enough respect. That was a solid engine.
@JonnyMicro The fact that it is just water, but also not wild about their occult marketing stunts like having witch doctors curse thw drinks and other similar stunts is enough to keep me away.
@eatinerni@officialLeJaphe Who the heck even made up all these weird dogs? Give me a plain dog burnt on the grill with a little cheese mustard and relish, or the same burnt dog with cheese, mustard chili, and maybe a few fritos thrown on top
Texans, you deserve to know the truth about what your state government is planning - WITHOUT YOUR APPROVAL.
This plan will cost you $100+ more on your yearly electric bills, make your property up for grabs via government condemnation and cost taxpayers up to $100 billion.
Big Tech is asking the state government for 4,000 more miles of electrical cables throughout the center of the state: funded by YOU for THEIR data centers.
The government is edging toward giving this sweetheart deal to them.
This is already ridiculous because Texas will have the MOST data centers by 2030, even though 93% of Texas is privately owned.
Maybe Iโm old fashioned but I donโt think Texans should be paying for data centers they didnโt agree to fund.
In the end, itโs not about the power lines. Itโs about who has control and who can make decisions with your tax dollars.
@PDean2017@EvanVieth I feel targeted, lol, not quite to 65 yet, but on the downhill slide. But don't discount us "old" dudes and dudettes. I am one of the loudest in Section 110. We can bring it ๐ค
