Trump's tariff policy relies on companies making giant long-term financial commitments to the US, which companies probably would have considered doing until about January of this year

Ever wondered where your marble countertop actually came from?

This turned out to be a fascinating few minutes. H/T @dmahugh.bsky.social

I wrote a Reddit post recruiting for the 24 Hours of Lemons iRacing league... perhaps my favourite comment of all was from the person who thought that I was a racing driver at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and had just misspelled it.

In the year 2125, the most powerful countries are going to be the ones that had the most advanced renewable energy industries.

Anyone else notice the striking similarity between Donald Trump and the biggest star ever to live in a Travel Tavern?

Now seems like a pretty good time to start an energy drink company called Brawndo

Somewhat hilarious given that he's styling this robot taxi as a new invention of his, but Waymo just hit ten years old. The reason Waymo is only now expanding out of SF is because this is a very difficult thing to do safely and reliably.

Elon Musk has accidentally turned his car company into a worldwide popularity test for Donald Trump, and this isn't going to be pretty.

I do not see how Tesla can survive without getting rid of Musk. Sales are cratering already in Europe, perhaps because Europe isn't hugely into dictators or Nazi salutes. Within the US, he's alienated the people who want to help stop global warming, and made friends with the people who don't.

I think we can all agree that the only way we'll feel safe in our beds is if there's a wall all along the Canadian border

Big presentation at work next week that I'm supposed to be working on, but it was very important that I put batteries in this today

So disappointed to see this sort of thing coming from such a reputable source as Jangrant63

The sad thing about Trump attempting to claim credit for reversing his own Tiktok ban is that half the people who voted for him are going to believe it

Biden pardoning his kid is an unforgivable normalisation of Trumpian politics.

Also I've now been sitting staring at this board for half an hour. What can I do that doesn't score terrible points and give Tony the triple word?

Greetings, Democrats of Twitter. Who knows what kind of car I was being driven around in on Sunday?

You too! If you find a way to get rid of it, let me know - I've got loads of them!

What music have you discovered while trying to get your car to play something else? Years ago, I asked Android Auto for the James song "Of Monsters and Heroes and Men". Instead it played me a selection of songs by Of Monsters and Men, a band I'm now a great fan of.

I am so fed up of this nonsense.

You know what I think? I was thinking that this web site was actually quite useful, but then you faded out what I was reading because you can't be bothered paying someone to tell you whether what you've published is shit or not
