Are they now?

I missed Woodstock by about a decade. But when I made it into the school music program (high school and college), we were all looking back and mourning the demise of our creative heros. Either due to actual deaths or the inevitable menal decline that turned their creative output into garbage.

And no, we are not going to pass legislation to make weed smokers a protected class, like the ADA. You show up for work stoned and you're fired.

There are 535 of them.

Go ahead. Show me the ads. But when I set tracking protection to strict, don't lie to me and tell me that I can't visit your page because I'm blocking your ads.I'm not. I can still see them. Just like I can see the billboards I drive by every day.

160 characters should be enough for anyone.

Yeah. Pot market back then: illegal. Booze market: legal but regulated. Much more for businesses to lose in the latter case.

One good argument for legalizing skunk.

If you want to understand why we are at this level at this point in time you need to study the disastrous effects of the "reforms" put in place by Lyndon Baines Johnson in the mid-to-late-60's.

Think a little next time you vote for local dog-catcher, schoolboard, and such. Those local elections matter more than you think. And for the past 60 years you've been putting treasonous filth in the school boards.

Treasonous filth that taught the children of treasonous filth, and now here we are, with a generation or two completely unable to deal with even life's little challenges, let alone the big heavy ones, without yelling for Government or Daddy or Mommy or AI to help them.

The problem with America is very much its educational system and the two or three generations of traitors it's created.

But, even daring to point it out gets you called Racist and worse.

I don't care. America's problem is very much its educational system and the two or three generations of traitors it's created

My slide rule gets this right every time.

And I see nothing about configuration capabilities being left for the vehicle owner once this is pushed out. In fact, I see nothing about benefits to owners at all in TFA.

Utility demand response is a contractual thing. Once you sign up, you are obliged to load shed at the utilities request. Or face penalties. V2G just goes a step further than unidirectional (V1G) flow control in that GM can just take power back. Note that it is GM on the other side of the deal. Not your local, regulated and answerable to state utilities commisioners, utilities.

... jump into my EV Monday morning, will I find the batteries dead because the local data centers have requisitioned all that energy to support the rendering of lollies?

This is why you do all of your R&D overseas. And then license it and import it as needed for US operations.

Why? It's going to be made in China.

Google wakes up. After allowing GMail users to spam the world with scams for years. They finally figured out that maybe this could damage their brand (not surprised if this was China's intent).

Now pardon me while I answer this message from Charles Ndungu Thuo.

It is expensive to raise a child to succeed in this modern world. Put that together with better healthcare (you don't need six kids to ensure the survival of one or two) and it's better to invest resources in just a couple of kids.

You should marry my ugly sister, Bertha. Or rather Katherina. (See how far back this plot scheme goes?)

Small town thinking. It's nearly impossible to locate such women in a big city. Much less constrain them to the village women's pecking order. And then threaten ostracization for failing to stay in their place.

Nope. That's just Vladimir Putin.
