So if starting and stopping isn't a big deal, why does it matter if a car's 100k miles are city or highway? Everyone knows city miles are way harder on cars. Now you want to add shutting the engine off to every stop. Think about it

Let me guess, you asked ChatGPT. You've probably never worked on a car a day in your life

How many cycles does your starter have, or your battery? Do you really think it's a good idea to have your coolant system stopping right after using your vehicle hard? For many of the components of your engine the greatest strain is in starting up. It really show that you know fuck all about cars that you can't think of any way it could be worse. This is where EVs shine, but it's not for ICE vehicles.

The thing is if you ask a mechanic if stopping and starting your engine over and over is bad for your engine, or at least parts of it, the answer is obviously yes.

You forget that Melinda herself divorced Bill citing his relationship with Epstein. That's more than securing donations. Why would Epstein lie in a note to himself about Bill?

The recidivism rate is a lot lower in China too and they definitely don't rehabilitate. I bet it's getting pretty low in El Salvador as well.

That's easy. We've gone our whole lives without AI and did just fine. Most cases of AI use aren't geniuses streamlining their busy workload. It's idiots trying to get their crap work to be passable. Don't get me wrong, even current AI can do some incredible things. But you aren't better off in the long run offloading your thinking to a statistics model.

Russia couldn't defeat in of the poorest country in Europe. They've been weak for ages. They are a paper tiger. We talk about them like they're strong because every hero needs a villain. The Russian economy is falling apart fighting a war on their own border.

So they aren't drowning in debt? Then why did the Biden administration made it a key issue to try to pay of student loans?

And if he did if just gives other countries license to do it to us. Do you think any opposition leader would be willing to meet in person after that? Don't be daft.

I was about to say that both sides are very guilty of blatantly lying, but the real problem is that there are sides at all. And what's worse is both sides are convincing people they are telling the truth. If I can tell the political leaning of the journalist or reporter, than they're doing a bad job.

No, the companies that already exist that want it do so for the same reason oil companies push to regulate refineries. It makes the barrier to entry much tougher for someone new. If they cared about it for environmental reasons they would never ad AI.

Try to make any ad hominem attack you want, but I'm right. Show me the success stories.

No, it's because your arguments about capitalism are frequently about the moral failures of capitalism. But every time I've seen you make that argument you make it as if it's not a human problem and socialism or communism wouldn't have those issues. It's not that it's a left wing argument being voted down. It's just a nonsensical argument.

I assume you drive cars where you are? You're clearly in favor of road rage incidents and automotive fatalities. There are nearly as many guns as there are people and our society is remarkably peaceful over all. Besides, when do criminals bent on murder care about gun control to laws? Murder is illegal and that doesn't stop them. Should owning a gun be worse than murder then?
