Ah yes, Volvo, the famous German car manufacturer owned by a Chinese company and headquartered in Sweden.

Nothing happens in Munich, though.

Anyhow, I expect that this stance will change if enough people complain. The carmakers stance in this area is understandable, as the dashboard display is one way to differentiate their branding and CarPlay ultra takes over the dashboard. There’s limited individualism with electrification and technology (particularly driver assist) being provided by third parties.

TLDR Using specific radio frequencies to heat the legumes

During RF heating moisture distribution and interactions with other components such as NFs and ANFs play a crucial role and it is assumed there is no temperature gradient from outside to inside in the sample. During RF heating, micro-explosions of water molecules within the sample are expected, leading to the formation of macropores and macro channels through which water vapour and other volatile compounds escape. These volatiles may include both antinutritional factors (ANFs) and nutritional factors (NFs) present in pulses (Oke, 2021). Understanding the pore characteristics of peas and pinto beans during RF heating is essential for designing an efficient thermal processing system for pulses. This study investigates pore formation in whole pea and pinto bean seeds subjected to varying moisture contents and RF power levels. It also explores the multiphysics of RF heating, particularly how water molecules within the macropores of these porous seeds are selectively and rapidly heated compared to the surrounding matrix. This phenomenon is further analyzed using computer simulations to better understand the interaction between dielectric heating and pore structure.

That $300/visit doesn’t go to the dr before it passes through several layers of bureaucracy, each of which skims their fee.

Not to say that doctors aren’t well compensated. They are.

There’s people out there with nothing happening up there?

Like tumbleweeds just gently bouncing through?

I cannot conceive of that.

NK is a bad enough place to visit without worrying about everything. It’s the ultimate in mismanagement.

Management says it must happen, so it happens, or we tell them it’s happened. When someone gets hurt because it actually didn’t happen, there’s a cover up.

Haven’t done one so I don’t know, but that’s helpful for those who do need to do this.

21% APR just for you!

Ah I thought that was the Dodge crew.

I have moved more in a smart car than most people think they can in a pickup truck.

The station wagon reference is more about the marketing that’s led us down this garden path. Nobody likes how SUVs handle on the school run or a road trip but they sure do like the idea of being king of the road and all that jazz. So the answer is to take a hatchback and give it a lift kit (and upright seating and $10k markup). Love my wagons.

I’ve spent some time in these crossovers lately and can confirm that not only are they unsafe, they’re absolutely not fun to drive - and impractical. Give me a car any day. These station wagons with factory lift are terrible on several levels.

I agree there’s missing context.

There’s a few other places that I can think of which have a lot of “new dwellings” built, even without parking, but local rent is unaffected because the type of dwelling is simply undesirable - for either financial reasons (luxury apartments are too much money) or practical (I have 2 kids and can’t live in a 1 bedroom + den - or they’re distant from work, no transit, and there’s no parking) or personal (I have 2 kids and don’t want them to grow up in the pollution etc. of a downtown core).

There is not a simple solution to this problem.

The Mustang has been the car of choice for mid-life crises for a long time.
