  1. Wife and I are late to the party. We just started watching Season 1 about a month ago, and finished Season 2 last night. So, so good.
  2. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/us/politics/doge-contracts-savings.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
  3. Yes, but....they really didn't get that far ahead, because in terms of sales, they were limited on how many iPhones they could squeeze onto a plane. Plus, the point is moot after Trump capitulated today: https://daringfireball.net/2025/04/how_many_iphones_can_fit_on_a_freight_plane
  4. What a shame. https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/tesla-deletes-buy-option-for-model-s-and-x-from-china-website-a6612085
  5. Goddamn, I hope to hell Elon's children created the "glitch" and don't know how to fix it.
  6. Probably not solely for buses, since those funds could also be used to put in the infrastructure necessary to charge the buses as well. A neighboring district did something similar (already received the funding) and it paid for 13 buses, plus infrastructure to charge all 13.
  7. Yellow journalism never died, it just transformed from print to Fox, OAN, Newsmax, etc.
  8. China goes to 125% of US imports https://gss.mof.gov.cn/gzdt/zhengcejiedu/202504/t20250411_3961824.htm
  9. I still chuckle at statements people have had for decades now that "when the olds die off, the GOP will be finished" I was hearing this back in the 90's. It's 2025 and I'm still waiting.
  10. No better time to take a cruise.
  11. I half expect Elon to demand some kind of punative action by Trump towards those mean folks in Brussels, or some kind of performative lawsuit. I hope to hell that the Chinese government kicks money back to citizens of the EU for purchasing a Chinese branded EV.
  12. What could possibly go wrong. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/10/us/politics/migrants-deport-social-security-doge.html?unlocked_article_code=1.-k4.T5Nf.m-Dm8UB0A62d&smid=nytcore-ios-share
