It turns out, automakers were actually using headlights that were dimmer than legally required and getting away with it for decades.

That's just being conservative. If you don't have to spend money, you're saving! /s

(But seriously on some level, probably the tactic. Why spend state money when you can ignore and then plead for money from the Federal government? It's so perfectly grifty. Lives don't matter, only votes enough to stay in power.)

There are some that do power negotiation on the input side, and then power negotiation on the output side so you can have your cake and firewall it too.

Either?! Throws life savings at product

Steve Jobs AI CEO Hologram: "you're driving it wrong!"

100% agree. America lets a lot of crap slide that shouldn't. The main ingredient in said "sauce" last I checked (which to be fair, was many years ago) was high fructose corn syrup.

Don't get me wrong either, I'd do it again. Just, hilarious how some GI tracts react. And I'm a frequent eater of veggies, legumes, root vegetables.

Your words...they are beautiful. They did send a poet.

Probably not "toxic" as much as gas-generating. If you've ever made the mistake of eating two impossible whoppers, you rapidly drive all people and animals nearby 50 feet away from you.

The hostages are mere pawns leveraged by both military organizations and specifically by the IDF to justify the ongoing genocide. The IDF was killing their own citizens on October 7th alongside Hamas, and the Israeli government themselves issued that report. Israeli blockading of food supplies starves the Israeli hostages alongside the Palestinian civilians.

Why would Hamas ever give up hostages if this is how Israel acts towards their own captured citizens now?

KFC "Honey Sauce" comes to mind.

I want a metal back phone

Steve Jobs did too, they still needed a plastic window for some antennae on the OG iPhone, then went to full plastic. It has become worse now, the back isn't just for wireless charging. It is also for NFC, UWB, and often cellular/gps/wifi/bluetooth may share antenna connections through the back.

Right there with you though. NFC could probably be packed in a band at the top of a phone. UWB seems of dubious value thus far.
