8Gb is more than enough for my mother’s MB Air. She only uses Safari, iMessage and Pages. That’s many tasks as Apple correctly said and she does not need a pompous self entitled PC Gamer “journalist” with slovenly multiple tab habits to tell her that she should have paid $200 more for her Mac.

My Mac’s have more memory, but then I run multiple VM’s and don’t need the advice of a pompous self entitled PC Gamer “journalist” to know how much RAM I need either.

Yes, I'm old.
The 60s had the best music. Actual lyrics, etc.
I still prefer to listen to "classic rock" over anything else.
This article is confirmation of what I have been thinking. There is no good new music.

We have the same problem (probably worse) in the US where the Republicans (conservatives) aren't interested in doing anything except gumming up the works and persecuting immigrants, poor people and cutting social services (health, housing, food, education, retirement).

That's the first thing I noticed in TFA. 'engineers will be needed to operate...'.

It's now sop to hire engineers to operate equipment? That used to be the role of technicians. A different strata.

Boeing was doing just fine despite several crashes caused by their stupid outdated design.
It's only after many years and multiple failures that things started to catch up with them.

Isn't capitalism great!
Corporations are required to maximize shareholder profit over safety, environment, etc.

Yes.
Tesla does a good job of maintenance keeping their chargers operational (99+%).
Everybody else lets them rot.
These new government regulations now specify a 97% up time to qualify for the subsidy

These are farmed bees. They are destroying wild bee populations.
Just like all farming, monocultures and "best practices" destroy nature.
But what I didn’t know was that by keeping bees I would only be helping one species of bee – the domesticated honeybee, which doesn’t really need saving – and possibly harming others.

The underfunded state of the FAA has forced SpaceX to launch less often than than they would have were they not waiting on overworked FAA officials to approve launch licences. SpaceX's development model is to iterate quickly: design, build, test (launch), redesign, build, test (launch), etc. The FAA's pace of delivering launch licenses has slowed this process down to the point where SpaceX scraps Spaceships that they would normally have flown but could not because SpaceX builds the biggest rockets ever built faster than the FAA licenses.

SpaceX already proposed LAST YEAR to finance the FAA so that they can staff up to the level SpaceX will need them to be, making TFA's baitclicky "Biden Takes Aim At SpaceX's Tax-Free Ride In American Airspace" about as close to reality as utterances from Trump or Putin.

My "Prime 2 day" shipping was usually 4-5 days.
I ditched Prime.
If I need something I can usually find it on eBay for cheaper with free shipping (faster than Prime).

What's all this about DEI?
I thought we were all infected with the "woke mind virus".
Hard to keep up. (I'm old)

Yuppers. It's not worth it to me free. And I can use other search engines, at least pretending I have a choice, as if I have much choice in anything I acquire.

Yes.
Low center of gravity
Even front rear weight distribution
Precise control of power through ABS and anti-skid system

I've tested these systems by intentionally slamming on the brakes then flooring the accelerator. The car controls the braking and power to the wheels and just won't slip.
I've driven my AWD Teslas since 2015 through lots of ice and snow (I live in the mountains of California) and the cars are the most stable I've ever had.

It's foolish to invest in fossil fuel substitutes which prolong the pollution.
Better to invest in renewable energy and electric infrastructure.
There is no chance of people being cut off from fossil fuels. We need to make sure they are not cut off from renewable energy.
