I can’t speak to all of Canada, but my in-laws live in Quebec and I see a lot of EVs up there, but a different mix than what we have in my part of the US. In Quebec they have a lot of hydroelectric energy and electricity is relatively cheap. Where I am in the US there are a lot of Tesla vehicles, especially the model Y. We see other brands but at a rough guess I’d say Tesla is over 50% of the electric cars. Where my in-laws are in Quebec the Teslas are pretty rare and I see a lot more of the cheaper cars with shorter ranges, like the Hyundai Kona EV or Chevrolet Bolt. The F-150 Lightning (recently discontinued) also seems much more popular up there; people can still put all their accessories on it to carry their snowmobiles and camping gear.

They’re higher-pitched than fog horns, but would you consider an air horn?

The best option is to look at the manufacturer for your phone. They should have instructions for your model. These iPhone instructions are a good general guide, but there might be specific recommendations for whatever model you’re cleaning.

I wonder if he would’ve made the same decision before NIL payments existed?

It shows just how much he has changed in the last few years (beyond the obvious white-nationalist stuff), as Musk originally said Tesla would pivot to a more traditional design if the Cybertruck failed. It has failed. Now what?

I feel like his ego was already strong enough back then that he never had any intention to pivot

It seems to be a “maybe” with anecdotes from soldiers on both sides but little documentation

Meanwhile wasn’t there a story about the Germans building a decoy airfield with wooden airplanes and other things to look convincing and then when they finished the Allies sent a single fighter bomber to drop a single wooden bomb decoy on the runway?

This seems like a good place to plug the small [email protected] community

This is something a sitcom character would do

The report noted that publishers that specialise in lifestyle or utility content such as weather, TV guides, or horoscopes were more likely to have seen traffic declines, linking it to the arrival of Google’s AI summaries at the top of search results from 2024.

I think the top part happened during his first term, explaining some of the pixel loss

I’m guessing some Argentines would be mad at Brazil being declared “Soccer Mexico”

That makes sense; I saw another post from op that looks the same

I’ve tried multiple apps and all show this picture as mostly gray, like a corrupted file

Was this colorized later or an early use of color film?

In 1938, wallet manufacturer the E. H. Ferree company in Lockport, New York decided to promote its product by showing how a Social Security card would fit into its wallets. A sample card, used for display purposes, was inserted in each wallet. Company Vice President and Treasurer Douglas Patterson thought it would be a clever idea to use the actual SSN of his secretary, Mrs. Hilda Schrader Whitcher.

Although the snafu gave her a measure of fame, it was mostly a nuisance. The FBI even showed up at her door to ask her about the widespread use of her number. In later years she observed: “They started using the number. They thought it was their own. I can’t understand how people can be so stupid. I can’t understand that.”

One embarrassing episode was the fault of the Social Security Board itself. In 1940 the Board published a pamphlet explaining the new program and showing a facsimile of a card on the cover. The card in the illustration used a made-up number of 219-09-9999. Sure enough, in 1962 a woman presented herself to the Provo, Utah Social Security office complaining that her new employer was refusing to accept her old Social Security number–219-09-9999. When it was explained that this could not possibly be her number, she whipped out her copy of the 1940 pamphlet to prove that yes indeed it was her number!

Is this strictly Lemmy or does it include related platforms like PieFed and Mbin? Because it seems like there has been some shift to PieFed

In Scotland, although marriage was formed by simple consent and required no formalities or consummation, the bedding rituals were widespread but unstructured; a couple simply wanted someone to see them in bed together. A couple could also be pressured into marriage in this way: a person stumbling upon an unmarried couple in bed could pronounce them man and wife on the spot.

Wait, so the Thomas’s English Muffin was their invention?
