I have a 12 year old ICE car @ 172,000 miles and it needs none of those wheel bearings, axels, suspension and HVAC fixes. I would not bundle regular car issues with EV issues since it varies from manufacturer to manufacturer (and even model & year).

The high cost of a battery replacement compared to the cost of the car after a few years is a concern which is seems very relevant though.

And how sarcastic replies with high vote ratios like telling someone to add glue to their pizza so pepperoni doesn’t slide around get through.

Or if your job wipes your browser preferences for whatever misguided security each time it closes and you end up on the default AI BS page at the start of each day.

IDK if accountable is the right word. More like made an example of.

I know in California its common to:

• Revert your car to stock emission standards during the biyearly smog inspection to avoid detection for people dedicated enough
• Pay someone to pass the test without testing the car (not sure if possible on new cars with electronic serial number stuff?)
• Register out of state
• Etc.

You only have to barely look at some of the modifications done in California based YouTube channels to see the cars meet one of the above criteria.

This seems silly in terms of value unless it is bringing in some larger investigation home for large offenders that were already targeted by some other investigation and are being cross referenced.

Edit: for the record, I think this is a waste of money and resources as others have said. Plenty of more meaningful things to do if you actually give a shit about the environment or road laws.

Can’t wait to continue not using them since they suck as a search engine now. At work I go straight to the vendors’ docs and stack overflow since Google offers only regurgitated (mostly outdated) slop nowadays. This is for Java development.

The only product of theirs that still seems functional is maps for now.

Even gmail started half assing search results which only include the past few weeks when you type into the search bar until you physically click the search button. Not sure what idiot thought that was a good idea since it misleads you to think it already did the search when it lists partial results.

At least in today’s internet era you can check out the gameplay and see of it’s something you’d enjoy.

I tried to use it about 3 years ago on an apple tv. It tried finding the server on my LAN and never could do it reliably, so I found it more annoying.

With Jellyfin/Swiftfin I do have to punch in the hostname or IP, but it works fine for me and the people in the house. The only annoyance is getting signed out every few months, but I’m not sure of that’s a server or client issue on Apple TV and happens infrequently enough that I have not bothered to look up the reason.

Edit: should have said that I used to use Plex before ~2012-2018, and with more ease that after the updates that dumbed down the interface. Maybe its changed and better now, but no reason for me to care.

Why would they do that when they can make an extra $0.03 this quarter? </s>

A few titles actually went in clearance at Costco which is somewhat rare:

Prices ending in 97 at that store indicate they wanted to get rid of the inventory to make room for other items, not sure the reasoning for it though, could be just newer games for the same system (since it also varies by location).

Edit: Looks like Walmart had a similar sale ($35-$40) for even more titles including bananza, so something is definitely different when compared to previous Nintendo pricing deals with retailers.
