What are you going to blackmail him with? Being a foreign asset? Grifting and embezzling the fuck out of the country? Raping and trafficking children?

He already publicly does/did all those things. He isn't being blackmailed, he's just a run-of-the-mill rich dumbass.

Israel isn't all Jews, and all Jews aren't Israeli.

Ah, so nothing but rhetoric pulled out of your ass is your only defense for being a bigot. You are now blocked for being a disingenuous troll. Go bother someone else.

And we're going to try re-isntalling it first thing when you finally get back into our computer.

Yeah, I woke up late for a meeting one morning, and figured I'd try ordering a doughnut and coffee from door dash (my wife door-dashed/grubhub'd all the time, so I figured it wouldn't be too crazy expensive), it was going to cost me 19 dollars to get a 6 dollar doughnut and coffee from a few blocks down the street. And then it suggested a 5 dollar tip for the driver.

Fuck that shit, I just went hungry that morning.

Oppish. You'll sound like an auctioneer with tourettes, but with a little bit of practice, it's faster to use, easier to understand, and harder for unpracticed people to decipher.

Spoiler : it's the cave diving.

I would love to do cave diving. Except every time you hear about an accident, it's usually some experienced diver who fucked up just a little bit and that meant death... And then like another 1 or 2 people die trying to recover the body.

One site. 2 minutes.

And if you'd bothered to actually look, you would have noticed that there were 500,000+ EVs listed.

You were wrong about a non-existent used EV market. It's not a big deal, just take the L, learn from this to think first, then form an opinion, and then post, and move on with your life.

Just to thoroughly put this to bed... Here is the per-capital EV adoption rates in 2021

https://en.wikipedia.org/...

The US is nowhere close to the leaders on that chart. EV markets are actually better in many other places than they are in the US, and speaking from experience, I had no trouble finding a wide selection of secondhand EVs to purchase when I bought my car about a year and a half ago.

In summary... You're painfully, obviously wrong, and that is okay. Continuing to defend a point solely "supported" by ignorance and prejudice, is not.

This may come as a shocker to some people, but ICE cars are mined and manufactured in almost the exact same way as an EV. The main difference is EVs tend to weigh a bit more.

Also, once you mine the materials for an EV, you're done. My car runs on sunlight and wind. Once you mine and manufacture an ICE, you are locked into mining, manufacturing, and transporting resources for it for the rest of it's existence.

So what? 500,000 is still 250x better than the number you pulled out of your ass instead of actually reading and researching. It's 250x better than what you thought.

And in case you missed it, there are plenty of other countries that have a higher ratio of EVs to ICEs than the US.

So the fact that there are more EVs to ICEs in other countries, and the fact that it's possible to buy an EV in the US despite it's low market penetration, means your statement about buying secondhand EVs...

You can’t really.

Is absolutely fucking wrong.

If you want to argue this point further, show up with some actual data to defend your point in your next post, like maybe an article talking about how there are 0 used EV sales outside the US. Otherwise, you aren't arguing in good faith, and you can be ignored for being a pissant little ankle-biter picking a fight for the sake of fighting.

Maybe just try googling it? Nah, you'd probably whine about being told to do that...

Took less than 2 minutes, and there you go, looks like you can view used EV listings in ~60 different countries on that site alone.

What a small world view you must have, to think that used electric cars only exist in the USA....

You know other countries have had EVs for just as long as the US?

You can buy EVs secondhand. You'd be hard pressed to find a sub 10k EV "beater" but there are plenty of used EVs in the 15-25k price range in my area, and are equivalent in features to used cars in the same bracket.

One final safety check should have come after she checked it

Frankly, if I was running this operation, I'd have chalked out zones requiring different amounts of equipment to proceed through, depending on how close you are to the jump.

Example, to be in this area, you need to have had a safety briefing, to be in this area, you need to have your harness and helmet on, to get to the next area, you need to be connected to a safety line, then the next area requires that you are connected to the primary line, and the last area requires that a jump director reviewed your setup and put a visible "jump ready" flag on your harness.

I watched my dad die in the Jefferson Memorial. I remember the reflecting pool being so thick with hostile green scum, you'd need military grade hardware to clean it all out.

Huh, I didn't realize you can't buy second hand EVs. Gonna have a tough time explaining the my wife why the Mustang is gone.

I am neither a furry, nor into VR pole dancing, but you should drop us a link for shits and giggles. I'd rather support people doing their weird hobbies for fun instead of meaningless wage slave jobs for misery.

Don't feel compelled to, if you don't want to associate your Lemmy profile with your VR furry pole dancing profile, but if you are having fun with it, you should consider sharing it regardless of how good you are, if only to show other people that this thing exists, and they may have fun with it too

Can't argue with that.

Hear me out. Maybe, if you are a parent, its your duty to keep an eye on your child, and exert some control over the spaces and people they interact with?

These fucks must have forgotten that trump has an eastern European mail-order bride as his 3rd wife, who had an anchor baby and then used her citizenship to get her parents brought over.

It's like all the shit they bitch about immigrants doing, and their god king facilitates it.
