I am still struggling to understand it. It seems a company can defy laws that are broad, within reason, if they were not explicitly named in the law? Chevron deference (Cornell Law)

Sounds to me like it gives power to corporations to be exempt from regulations. Is that the gist of it?

It’s not a violin. That’s a cello.

Actually, that’s a good catch, it does look like a chin rest. Maybe it’s a violin after all, or a viola. Also, I must apologize … I had it confused with another popular meme image. Here they are for comparison:

violin/viola?

cello?

No, this POS deserves to be locked up in a southern state prison.

Any discussion of rehabilitating from climate change should include rewilding and the restoration of lost wetlands, a major carbon sink for our planet.

Why did you have to share through Reddit though, just to post a Reddit screenshot image?

Why does it send intermittent notifications stating the update failed?

That’s probably why that happened to me, on Android as well. I set the location setting to work only while using the app. I think since I turned off notifications, it stopped sending the failed update message.

Public Service Announcement: Michigan’s Almost-There Eclipse

Dear Michiganders,

Today, as we tilt our heads skyward, let’s remember that in the grand tapestry of celestial events, Michigan is getting the “lite” version of the solar eclipse. Yes, full totality is reserved for our neighbors in Ohio, a state that, for today at least, can claim full bragging rights to cosmic significance.

In this spirit of friendly rivalry and celestial one-upmanship, a few reminders:

• The Partial Experience: Just like our beloved Detroit Lions’ quest for the Super Bowl, Michigan’s view of the eclipse isn’t quite the full deal. But in true Michigan spirit, we’ll cheer for that partial eclipse with the same passion we reserve for our team every season.
• Eye Safety: Despite only getting a glimpse of the eclipse, the need for protective eyewear remains paramount. It’s a bit like watching a Lions game; you know you should look away to protect your heart, but you just can’t help watching.
• Silver Linings: In Michigan, we’re no strangers to making the most of what we have. A partial eclipse? That’s just another opportunity for us to show off our unwavering optimism—much like our annual hope that “this is the Lions’ year.”

So, as Ohio bathes in the shadow of the Moon, let’s embrace our partial eclipse with the fullness of our Michigan hearts. After all, it’s not the completeness of the eclipse that matters, but the spirit with which we observe it.

Cheers to a day of celestial camaraderie and friendly jests across state lines!

Sincerely,

!ohio

You can easily replace “Lions” with “Browns”, and the smack talk still holds true. We have more in common than people think!

I’m not understanding. Are you typically driving around town towing another car? Or do you just want to say you have the ability to tow it yourself when needed?

apocalypticat, 2 months ago

You’re right, they should make production vehicles to cater to people that might want to tow their race car per chance 🙄
