“Combining satnav maps with a forward camera to read the road signs, they will automatically sound an alarm if driven too fast for the zone they are in.”

“From now on, however, cars will be designed with systems that are impossible to permanently turn off, restarting each time the engine does. Will car lovers see this as pure progress?”

It doesn’t sound hard to disable… speakers only have 2 wires. Snip-Snip.

You aren’t disabling the system, that still works fine, it just has no output.

Kamala can’t win. Nobody likes her. Has anyone else gone from Zero to the Presidency in 4 months? 🤔

Getting caught manipulating evidence is exactly the sort of thing that cost her the primary bid and should have cost her the VP job.

But when it comes to electability, literally nobody likes her. Even her own staff hates her. She’s a non-starter as a viable candidate. She’s Hillary but less likeable.

Kamala can’t win because even her own staff hates her and she has tremendous baggage from her days in California.

I do like the Biden clip on Morning Joe though.

Picked up a wonderful illustrated edition of The King in Yellow. Yeah, I’m not sure that’s a good idea either. ;)

I do, because they will have had no say in who replaces him.

The same way the DNC forced Hillary on everyone in 2016.
