First Rivian R2 I’ve seen in the wild, in press camouflage colors.
Smaller than I expected, tidy came to mind, but didn’t get a closer look.

Several centuries ago the Pope decreed that all the Jews had to convert to Catholicism or leave Italy.There was a huge outcry from the Jewish community so the Pope offered a deal.

He would hold a religious debate with the leader of the Jewish community. If the Jews won, they could stay in Italy. If the Pope won, they'd have to convert or leave.
The Jewish people met and picked an aged and wise rabbi to represent them in the debate. However, as the rabbi spoke no Italian and the Pope spoke no Ladino, both sides agreed that it would be a "silent" debate.

On the chosen day the Pope and rabbi sat opposite each other. The Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers.

The rabbi looked back and raised one finger and shook it at the Pope.

Next the Pope waved his finger around his head.
The rabbi pointed to the ground where he sat.
The Pope brought out a communion wafer and a chalice of wine.

The rabbi pulled out an apple.

With that, the Pope stood up and declared himself beaten and said that the rabbi was too clever. The Jews could stay in Italy.

Later the cardinals met with the Pope and asked him what had happened.

The Pope said, "First I held up three fingers to represent the Trinity. He responded by holding up a single finger, shaking it to remind me there is still only one God common to both our beliefs.”

"Then, I waved my finger around my head to show him that God is all around us. He responded by pointing to the ground to show that God is also right here with us.”

"I pulled out the wine and wafer to show that God absolves us of all our sins. He pulled out an apple to remind me of the original sin.”

"He beat me at every move and I could not continue."
Meanwhile, the Jewish community gathered to ask the rabbi how he'd won.

"I haven't a clue," the rabbi said. "First, he told me that we had three days to get out of Italy so I shook my finger saying no.”

"Then he tells me that the whole country would be cleared of Jews and I told him that we were staying right here."

"And then what?" asked a woman.

"Who knows?" said the rabbi. "He took out his lunch so I took out mine."

@dblcap @28delayslater Will Tesla Roadside service have their own fleet, or does someone else have to start an emergency roadside charging service with a Cybertruck and a Range Extender? 🤔

[Leon Brauer @LeonBrauer]

@plugshare - I think he loves the new truck more than us, Earl.
- I miss the gas station too, Sally, they always had treats.

23andMe was hacked with the profile data of Ashkenazi Jews specifically targeted in the breach.

According to emails sent to customers today from 23andMe, the data that was hacked included: ancestry, Family Tree, display name, relationship labels, self-reported location (city/zip code), and birth year.

@Boca_Wes A 10% “landing” tip to airline pilots, 15% if you’re traveling in a party of 6 or more. Why else do they only open the front cabin door and make every passenger shuffle past the pilots 😅

[Leon Brauer @LeonBrauer]

@Boca_Wes The Accord. Unsafe lane changes, passing on the left, unsafe speed. These led to loss of control.
But yeah, slower traffic keep right.
