I have a question about phevs. So gasoline goes bad after 3-6 months. If you’re just running off of the battery and not using gas for months, do you need to remember to use up the gas before that happens? Does the car remind you?

I do not follow your logic at all. It seems like you’re trying really hard to find some racism that just isn’t there.

It’s been called out for decades now. Explaining the situation every time a non-European site predates a European site of the same type would be beating a dead horse.

It’s not a leap at all. If hypothesis 1 is correct then you’ll find cave art all over the world because humans were making cave art before they left Africa. There’s been debate over whether Neanderthals were making art as well, seems like they were imo, and they left Africa well before Sapiens did.

Hypothesis 2 was never plausible. It was probably only considered plausible by people with hardly any archeological data who were stuck inside a white-supremacist worldview in 1940. The world has since made some progress disabusing itself of such ideas.

I think they’re drawing from the out-of-Africa hypothesis. If there is cave art in Indonesia and Europe, then it’s plausible that the ancestors of both populations, which were in Africa, were also making cave art.

If you’d like a deeper dive into this topic then there’s a book called The Dawn of Everything by David Graeber and David Wengrow.

The home was reportedly listed as a power of sale, which differs from a regular home sale. The clause is usually written into a mortgage note that authorizes the mortgagee to sell their property in the event of default to repay the mortgage debt.

As a result, the lender forces a sale on the public market and gets all the funds owed to them, while the current owner gets to keep any excess profit. In a foreclosure scenario, the lender usually takes ownership and gets to keep all the profits from the sale.

I bet the former owners initially made an $800,000 down payment. The timeline of price drops was rapid, just over a matter of months, so I’d guess the low selling point was probably pushed through by the bank trying to recover the money they lent as quickly as possible.

I really don’t understand why you’re nitpicking someone who is trying to drastically reduce their impact. What would you recommend they do?

Did this leak happen before or after NYT published an investigation detailing how Israeli forces were raping and torturing defenseless Palestinian detainees brought in from the Gaza Strip?

Okay, anyway, maybe someday they’ll increase the gas tax.

Civ6 has districts. Instead of having all of a city’s buildings existing in the city center tile, the city builds specialty districts that occupy a hex near the city. For example, a science district placed near some mountains will house the city’s library, university, and research lab.

I think the districts are a fun addition because it exposes a civ’s infrastructure to attack. You can pilliage an opponent’s districts to temporarily cripple them and you get some decent loot in the form of gold, science, culture, or faith.

That lifted diesel super duty getting 12mpg will get the state $0.47 in tax per gallon of diesel. If I did the math correctly that’s $391.67 per 10,000 miles. That’s about a years worth of driving for most people.

The gestures are awesome! The best part of my old moto was turning on my flashlight just by shaking the phone. So convenient. Turning it on with any other phone is a whole process that takes forever.

Kiwi farms?

If anything, such an event would create more demand for government actions that mitigate climate change.

Cuckoo. It’s a Korean brand, probably better than the Japanese brands imo. If you have an H-mart near you they’ll have a couple models on the floor you can look at, but I bought mine on amazon. It’s big, fast, can cook all types of rice with special settings, and everything that comes in contact with the rice pot is removable for cleaning. It’s been going strong for about 5 years and I use it at least once a week.

You can also cook anything in there. It comes with a steamer tray too for vegetables or sweet potatoes. Apparently mine can cook a whole chicken but I have yet to try that. Oh and it talks too, plus it makes a cute choo-choo train sound to signal it’ll vent steam in a second.
