It amazes me that one of the largest countries in the world, with the most diverse demographics, can only chose between two candidates. This is not democracy. It's a shit show that has been going on for far too long.

I currently drive a BMW i3 (BEV). Best car I've ever owned.

Do you have border control between states? It's basically the same thing with schengen. No control between countries on the "inside", but rigorous control to get in.

Are you me? This album was, and still is, my favourite album of all time. It played non-stop on my discman for a year, and I felt like it was just as important to me as oxygen.

As soon as I saw that weirdly proportioned wide eyed actress, I knew this was going to be a bad one. Charlize Theron did well as Furiosa, but I can't picture Anya Taylor-Joy portraying Furiosa in a believable way.

This was amazingly insightful. Thanks for sharing.

Artificial Intelligence is a bad word for this technology. Why are we not using the proper name for it? Machine Learning. Its not intelligent, and it might not be for a long time. Feed it crap, and you'll receive crap.

Stick shift drivers - would you get an electric vehicle?

My last car was a 2005 VW Golf 1.6 manual. It was a fun little car. It looked like trash, and i treated it like trash. We had many fun adventures together.

I went over to an EV after being tired of paying a fortune in petrol. My current car is a BMW i3, and i LOVE it. It's rear wheel drive, cheap to run and cheap to service. I live close to the arctic circle, so it's snowy about 5 months of the year, and this little thing with its skinny wheels is superb on winter roads.

Looking back, i don't miss driving manual. Driving an EV is completely noiseless and calm. No fiddling with the stick, no clutching, just pure pleasure. The rear wheel drive makes it equally fun to drive, and skidding around in the winter is really fun.
