I’m from space!

It also kind of makes sense to leave the name in place since the world has been calling it the “Gulf of Mexico” mid-1500s. The original name was in reference to the Aztecs.

Self-designed. Self-made is a stretch. It doesn’t look like they’re opening a foundry.

Nice. The F56 Minis are good cars. I have an S and it’s been a fun car. I also enjoyed driving the base F56.

My only problem is that these cars eat tires for breakfast, and BMW spec’ed these with expensive run-flat tires.

So, set a calendar reminder to rotate your tires. That will extend their life. I also know some people who bought a spare tire, put it in the trunk, and got rid of the run flats. But that eats into cargo space.

Bad news is that we’re still not setup for Reddit-level user counts. Lemmy needs much better moderation tools to allow communities to stay on top of reports.

Hopefully a lot of new users will also produce new people contributing to Lemmy. Or, maybe some people will form some sort of nonprofit that allows dedicated designers and engineers to continually work on Lemmy. When people contribute as a side gig, most give up after a few months. Most of the Lemmy clients that were build during the Reddit APIocalypse are no longer alive.

I wish we had some sort of way to incentivize dividend payouts, not just massive growth and stock numbers that go up.

Seeing Cheryl Hines there makes the “episode is over and Larry David is screwed” music play in my head.

Ahh. Thanks for the correction. Still not great news though.

Fuck the cyber truck and all, but their sales numbers are still pretty good when you compare them to the other expensive EV trucks floating around.

If they were more affordable, I guarantee you that you’d see more assholes driving these.
