Schrag ordered citizens to clear the room and shut off cameras recording the event.
I can think of zero reasons a city council would need to have a non-recorded/streamed public session. Nothing they would handle in a public session like that would be secret.
No it’s not Satan, Blood Magic always takes its toll eventually. It’s why they need periodic blood sacrifices to operate properly.
The point is that what western car companies consider “luxury” features they charge extra for, like heated seats and that sort of thing, are basically standard there. So the luxury features they include to separate these models from the pack are these more niche things.
Something that’s become readily apparent since Trump’s first term is that many people are just slow as fuck to notice blatantly obvious things.
I see you forget about the first 3 models that Tesla made that were $70k or higher when they were discontinued, and all launched at $90k+
And yet there it is, along with basically every other “luxury” feature western companies save for high end models… all for the price of a base model SUV here.
Technically, no.
The major dictionaries all agree it is in fact a word. Just not the ideal choice.

I was thinking along the lines of wondering why a single player game would need anti-cheat.
Required online check-ins and similar were a thing before Denuvo came on the scene, so I didn’t even consider that aspect. Especially since the online portion of Denuvo is secondary to the encryption crap.
Yeah. Denuvo is DRM, not anti-cheat.
But then you’re using Google services.
www.wherecanistreamit.com and www.justwatch.com can give you similar info without using the Google ecosystem.
Because not having a DRM solution makes shareholders nervous. So a pointless system that actively makes the game worse, is a positive still.
This isn’t news to anyone that’s paid attention over the years. Nearly every game that had Denuvo and removed it sees a measurable performance bump. Way more than what general optimizations would do, despite what the developer/publisher and the online propaganda repeaters always claim.
And yet even at 2-3x the price, the Chinese EVs provide a better value than the handful of the American options they would compete against.
This SUV would be competing with the likes of a high end EV option like Lucid or Tesla. The Lucid Gravity starts a around $70k, and the Tesla Model X (now discontinued) was around $92k.
The Xiaomi SU7 (the car the Ford CEO has driven since 2024, despite being banned in the US) starts at $32k and clearly is targeted to compete the Porsche Taycan at $112k.
The vehicle in this article has heated floors, a projector, a pop-up roof, a fridge, swiveling seats, and over 1,000 miles of range. Functions western companies consider “luxury” are basically just standard in the Chinese market like heated and ventilated seats. They don’t even bother to advertise things like that because it’s a minimum expectation. There are zero western options that come close to something like that. The options available in the US suck, even taking industry subsidies into account.
So it is.
But not in Australia where the article is about, so it doesn’t really matter anyway for the actual discussion at hand.
Maybe you’re right, don’t really care because it’s not very relevant to the article. I looked up Australia which is where this article is about, and Tesla is based on the US… and 15-16 is the case in both places, so thats all that really matters for the discussion.
I made the assumption about it being more common based on verifying the place the article is about and my own experience when traveling internationally.
You realize the article is about Australia right? Clearly you didn’t even bother to read it since it mentions Sydney in the first paragraph.

If you‘re a minor with a driving license your parent should either be by your side or you know what you‘re doing since you have a drivers license.
Are you seriously suggesting that teenagers are just going to do what they’re told? The one thing teenagers are famous for NOT doing. Just because their parents might know they’re out driving, that doesn’t actually prevent teenagers from doing stupid shit.
You also do realize that you don’t have to be 18 to get a driver’s license right? The almost universal standard around the world is between 15 and 16 years old, including in the US where Tesla is based, and Australia where this article is from.
The company introduced Speed Limit Mode following the death of 18-year-olds Barrett Riley and Edgar Monserratt Martinez in 2018. The pair crashed doing 116 mph (186 kph) in a 30 mph (40 kph) zone.
If he tried too hard it might fall into cringe parody.
That might then match Shatner’s terrible acting.
Paul Wesley has done an amazing job at a portrayal of Kirk without the baggage actors often have with portraying existing characters. In fact pretty much all of the SNW cast have done a wonderful job with that.
We need more judges holding police and officials accountable for blatantly obvious first amendment violations like this.
