You're thinking about this wrong. Cops can't pull you over for speeding if they're stuck going 45 mph.

Palworld didn't plagiarize them. This is what the kids call a nothingburger.

Obviously there are loads of similar designs, but in a way that indicates illegal asset stealing? That’s a different question, and so-called “lazy design” aping on other creations doesn’t qualify as actual theft unless it can be explicitly proven.

More grimly, it is a big corporation trying to squash an upstart competitor and suppress art. If they succeed then it is truly dystopian and a sign that we need more legal protections against overzealous copyright litigators.

By Freaky Friday rules you would just be giving them another identity to send in affirming reports.

I'm saying that the prime is not twice the car of the hybrid because it has a wall plug. It's the huge motors and huge battery. There's a middle ground.

Two cars and a house? Not for my generation.

The primes are enticing, but not 20k more expensive enticing. The escape PHEV is near perfect (same beautiful transmission as Toyota) but is FWD only. You need to go up to the lincoln corsair grand touring to get AWD and then suddenly it's 50k. wtf? Why will no one sell a sub 50k AWD PHEV?

Based on what? There has been no plan proposed by anyone to even start doing that. It's not economical for commercial players to add that level of infrastructure.

Having an EV be an option is very much a privilege of having a secure SFDH.

Rebate scope was heavily reduced in the past month and suddenly there's stories about EV and PHEV demand being lower? Horse shit. They're just more expensive now.

This is a good idea if they only put it in public service government issue cars.

What are you talking about? DNC primary is not a democratic election.

All he's got to do is say he wants affordable housing. Otherwise yeah I'll let it burn.
