Sounds about right. Most of the Japanese manufacturers have had to put a higher amount of effort on reliability, in large part due to Toyota's amazingly strenuous testing of reliability before they even consider dropping a new product on the market. As a bit of a bonus to that, once reliability was upped, making more sporty cars could be achieved because you had the budget to change around the driving dynamics of a car without making it inherently unreliable. The Miata is probably the best example of this, as while each generations drivetrain usually isn't too special (outside of being high revving), it manages to handle well and be reliable while doing so.
I remember playing Rollercoaster tycoon on windows 95.
I don't even think it's a question of innovation, more just perceived reliability. A large part of the reason Mercedes and other German brands were considered high quality was that they were more reliable than a lot of other brands on the market, while being good to drive. That isn't really the case anymore, and Toyota and Honda have that basically cornered that market to the point that it's an outlier to fine one that isn't reliable.
I kinda suspect it's the latter. I drive around pretty randomly for fun, and the amount of Trump signs and flags in yards is arguably higher than it has ever been. That being said, I think it's pretty telling they rarely have a Trump/Vance sign, so if Trump were to step down they'd probably lose pretty heavily.
I hope so, but I have my doubts. I'm in greensboro now, and I see his signs pretty often. My only hope is that Trump supporters actually listen to what he says, because they tend not to actually like him when they look into what he says (had at least one coworker that's a trump supporter express support for him, but when he actually looked him up, he didn't like him that much).
Yep, wholeheartedly. I could sorta see him saying that kinda stuff when high though, which is the sad part.
Just read the excerpt of what he said, he had to have been soooo very high to have said something so amazingly stupid.
Interesting concept, but it's basically trying to store hydrogen for winter, with up to 60% losses. It's main advantages are that it's kinda simple and shouldn't have a charge/discharge limit, but it's really just meant for cold climates where you would have a surplus of solar in the summer and you could use it much later, like in the winter. Not gonna be great for grid level storage, to lossy.
Found growing in a pot with a hibiscus plant, not entirely sure how it got there but the recent excessive rainfall has made it fruit.
I recently took a trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway, and I got something I though y'all might enjoy along the way!
Raspberry pi foundation was launched as a charity, and the end goal was to produce a ton of very cheap computers to help children learn about programming. Since then, it has been soo ubiquitous for embedded stuff that for the last couple of years they have basically become unaffordable for the very audience they were intended for. Now they are seeking an ipo because they are used in everything, except as cheap computers for children.
The biggest surprise is fallout 76. I thought it was universally disliked? Is it the fallout TV show causing it?
Honestly it's better than just having a generic name which they apply over several generations, with the only difference being the year at the end (which they might forget to add on some listing's). So long as it has a simple way to find the size and resolution from the model id, the rest can be kinda funky as long as I can Google it.
He's also declared bankruptcy a few times and lived off of food stamps, but doesn't really seem to like the idea of funding public assistance like food stamps. I'm from Greensboro and have known about him for years (he got famous for a crazy speech about gun control in front of the city council in 2018), he's a dangerous idiot.
