Where they say it's a small usage compared to US water usage. By that measure..... New York doesn't use much water either. But what they're doing - especially in areas they pull from the aquifer, CANNOT be "replenished". It takes ~30 years for water to filter all the way through the clay layers, and it does that in very limited quantities. Fuck you google. You loose all credibility when you start off with a gross misrepresentation.

So.... the political guy with the info, let's say Trump's advisor, talks to his friend and says "create an account, and bet on this". The friend does it ONCE. There is NO way to prove he didn't get lucky, unless you have record of the conversation.

Rinse, repeat, with different friends.

This AI will only be able to catch patterns of repeat inside traders.... and those folks are stupid enough that they'll be caught anyway. Unless they just make a new account each time with different credentials so there isn't any pattern at all. Sigh.

Look into the hybrid configurations. You get the insane torque of the electric motors, with great gas mileage and long ranges.

Gonna shill a bit:
The 2026 Ford F-150 Hybrid, known as the PowerBoostâ Full Hybrid V6, offers a best-in-class 578 lb-ft of torque and 430 horsepower, providing 11,600 lbs of towing capacity. It is available on higher trims (XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum) and features Pro Power Onboard, turning the truck into a 7.2 kW mobile generator.

You are utterly incorrect, and have no idea what you are talking about.

The Lightning pickup was a high end luxury vehicle, that wasn't really a pickup. All electric pickups suffer from severe towing limitations compared to gasoline. Not to mention they total fail in comparison to hybrid powertrain approaches that can give them ranges in the 400-600 miles *WHILE TOWING*.

That is, to say, the Lightning was always a glorified grocery getter for people who didn't use a pickup for a work-use. It was suburban vehicle for those that didn't want to have an SUV. It was an upscale minivan that you could put plywood and crap in the back - if you didn't care about messing up your $70,000 truck. It was a great vehicle - but it wasn't a "Truck".

Ford is pursing EVs in a BIG way. Their Louisville plant is ramping up to produce highly competitive LOW cost EV's with good range. Which is the only way that you're going to move people into EV's. No want wants to spend extra money just to drive an "EV" anymore. The "I drive a Tesla" hipster / yuppie phase is dying, or is dead. The new vehicles need to be practical, low cost, and relieve range concerns.

Anyway - it sounds like it doesn't fit your use case, which I suspect is not actually a towing vehicle / work truck and is more a 'get me to work' or a 'get me to the grocery store' or 'I want get some mulch for the flower bed'. Trucks sold in volume have a pretty well defined purpose. And that's to be used as a truck.

So we will get correct reports on things like:
Hunter laptop being a russia intel job.
Reports on joe being smart and competent.
kamala being the smartest woman around.
The Alfa Bank Server
How they handled Nicholas Sandmann
Biden coming and saying federal employees were "whipping" Haitian immigrants

Or most likely under democrats they will do like they have done in the past and have the tech companies block or label things as false when it goes against what they democrats want you to think.

Except it really wasn't. At the time of Star Trek you had blacks staring in multiple TV shows, even headlining very popular TV shows. TV and movies were hiring blacks with the requirement that they be qualified while under the woke and DEI thinking the industry has shifted toward a system of identity-first hiring, where a actor suitability for a role is secondary to meeting diversity quotas.
