Why would you pick a PHEV for comparison? They are going to get a worse MPGe (because of the extra weight) and have a smaller battery (no catching up on charging during the weekend…

Average commute for the US is 26 miles a day, but more than half drive considerably less than the average. For the people for whom an electric car makes sense, the overwhelming maj…

It only took Kia 6 years to out-Toyota Toyota, that is to go from producing the worst mainstream cars in the us to the best in initial and 3 year quality metrics (and well above To…

In my case the panel is in the basement and about 50 feet away. More importantly, I would need to be upgraded to 200 amp service which my older house doesn't have. So well over 2k.…

A little bit larger battery lets me catch-up on charging during the weekend or days off from work without the need to get a level-2 charger.

I'd rather have the price cut than the tax credit it they are for the same nominal amount ($1,875). First, you don't pay taxes or licensing on that amount and second if you finance…

Restated: 78% of adults work. 58% of workers are "wage earners" (paid hourly, not salary) 2.3% of wage earners earn minimum wage. Therefore 0.023 0.58 0.78 = 0.0104, or just over 1…

Voice is solved? Then wider hall cunt my giggle nexus ever get thaddeus tribbleshits?

Are you sure it's illegal? Like 80+ percent of the doctors in my metro area got their degrees in India (where they immigrated from). There is some form of reciprocity going on.

There is no opportunity cost deduction. Unless the doctor can show that he is losing money (amortized cost of office/staff overhead etc) on that $100 service, there is no deduction…

Yes. Let's go with this logic. Do you know what percentage of people in this country make minimum wage (or less)? According to the BLS it's 2.3% of wage earners, which are 58% of w…

Isn't that an argument for addressing the costs of tuition, and not an argument for artificially setting the value of labor?

Well that's blatantly false. Everyone willing to minimally contribute to society should have an expectation of a living wage. Able bodied people that choose to do nothing deserve t…

Sorry, that meme started on YTMND in 2005 based on a post in a newspaper from the 90s. Saying the references in this thread are of the movie is like saying any mention online of "G…

Oddly enough, I order my running shoes directly from China. Usually spend $30-$40 a pair, but get arguably the most comfortable and highest quality running shoes I have owned. For …

How many people do you work for?

Some people use their cell phones for business. If I block unknown numbers, I risk losing customers to someone who will answer the phone.

Probably. The rich live in San Francisco, the wealthy live in Napa Valley / Sonoma County. Can't fit a helipad, two tennis courts, putting green, and an olympic size swimming pool …

You are of course talking about monkey bar fighting over a pit of snakes, right?

Where is my baldness vaccine?

I know they will back down, but it makes me wonder; what if they didn't? Could a business, a corporation, go to war against another entity. Countries go to war all the time and whi…
