In heavy stop and go traffic yesterday, my 2013 Chevy Volt was getting 6 miles per kWh! Looking at energy costs (inc losses due to charging), that's like having a gas powered car that gets over 120mpg in the city, with no CO, NOx, and only 1/3 the CO2 put into the atmosphere.
@Chesschick01 IDK, looks like the wheels were turning to the right to me. What did she do to force the *brave agent to have to "risk his life" to stop her? Any other LEO, from any other agency would be charged for this action. Showing results of little training, less thought, more negligence.
@bennyjohnson 🤣every short-term trend has a long-term consequence - show us the natural gas and electricity rates later in the year. You'll be surprised how inversely related natural gas vs gasoline prices are.
@elonmusk SNAP fraud's been prosecuted by every administration. In 2024, six individuals (inc. a USDA employee) were charged in a fraud scheme starting in 2019 : stealing $66m from SNAP using unauthorized terminals. EBT cards only got chips in Aug '24 - open door for skimming & cloning.
@Matt_McKibbin@PeterZeihan@RemindMe_OfThis It isn't ... the Chavistas are still in charge ... the military was loyal to Chavez, and by decree, to Maduro. If the sanctions are lifted, food for oil will flow (but don't look for a democratic government in Venezuela any time soon. Trump barely mentions Machado now.
@PeterZeihan Trump simply left the Chavistas in charge in exchange for oil contracts (the false flag needed a villain (Maduro) who is going to be charged with everything BUT what he ACTUALLY did to his people). 30% of VE supported him, it's assumed democracy won't flourish in VE any time soon
@MonitorX99800 Those are the 'celebrations' bots aren't showing. The regime's still in charge - military among the crowd. This isn't a one-and-done when the country has 28 million people (30% of whom support the regime). Chinese & Russian arms stashed throughout a country 3x the size of Vietnam
@EdKrassen So many non-MAGA duped into voting for a "no new wars" President. The country is 3x the size of Vietnam, 30% supported the regime, has stashes of Russian & Chinese arms controlled by regime military (who are still in charge). "Celebrations" in Caracas will likely be muted.
@elonmusk Venezuela is 3x the size of Vietnam. ~30% of the people supported the regime. Not that the regime was good, but simplistic solutions lead to complex problems. No international company will invest until security is restored. Right now, nobody knows how that will play out....
@elonmusk Life advice from a man who was worth ~$160 million dollars when he started having children at 31. A LOT of childless Tesla customers fund the very megaphone that enables you to lecture to others about... not having children... 🤔
@AntiWokeMemes Generally yes. Too much signals caution. Like putting bumper stickers on a Maseratti to remind others that it's a fun, but temperamental sports car - more complicated than it needs to be.
