Sure, they had to sell their stock, including the parts needed to make the machines. At that time they were also still at least assembling them.

IIci September 1989, Quadra 700 October 1991, in almost the same case. Two years, one month.

That statement was stupid, even absurd the first times that it was used — by the Reich wing. The entire reason I'm still using it when speaking to them is to rub their noses in how fucking stupid it was.

You're two steps behind me as usual, but at least you're getting there.

Insert Travolta looking around meme here. This is me, looking for fucks.

If the airlines are acting as a de facto division of the government by providing them with your personal data, then they should be treated as such. That means they should follow simple rules for protecting PII like collecting and retaining the minimum needed.

You mean like when he claimed the iPhone would be all webapps?

Let's face it, Jobs' only superpower was being a super dick to employees. This can only take you so far.

Since he's living rent-free in your head, can we assume you're the one responsible for the rsilvergun-impersonating LLM spam?

Wait until you find out about American car companies

Someone's gotta communicate with the aliens when they show up and start ionizing our atmosphere.

The change in light trucks in the US may also have to do with emission standards.

It's still dumping wherever it's happening. It's a direct attack on every major automaker around the world, with the goal of destroying them and making foreign markets dependent on another Chinese export.

You can still buy gas burners for ~$20k. They may be small sedans and people may not want those things, but they exist, and some of them in that range are actually pretty good cars.

How is Venezuela successful? They've been a basket case for years.

It wouldn't matter, when you're dead-ass broke, you're going to lie/cheat/steal to get your fix whether it's $1/gram or $1000.

No, I mean the difficulty is so high that mining out any BTC requires an enormous upfront investment.

I do most of my shopping there, at Grocery Outlet, and at Costco. I actually do more shopping at grossout, because they are the closest thing that doesn't suck. We have a local market and mini-market, and I'm not a big fan of either one. (The market is somewhere around "OK", the mini market is disappointing.) I got Costco's card honestly just to get fuel quicker as the card is a membership card, and it's convenient for me to stop in there on my way to work.

Winco is an employee-owned co-op, and their pricing seems to be dynamic in general and the prices actually go back down, so I'm really happy with them. Grocery Outlet has beer I want to drink and high quality local dairy products, and an interesting and ever-changing stock of weird shit, and neither of the local ones are scuzzy. I have a chest freezer...
