I'd be curious to know this as well. Toyota is coming out with the next generation 4runner for 2025 and will be going to the 4 banger that's in the Tacoma. I've never owned a turbo but it may be time to replace the 2006 4runner with the next gen at some point as hopefully my last vehicle. But would want to know if the engine is solid before doing so. The drivetrain that's been in the 4runner for almost 20 years now is almost indestructible.

This was brought up in the hearing today and Trump's attorneys specifically said: - Obama should not be prosecuted for drone strikes that killed Americans in other countries while he was President. - Biden should not be prosecuted for his handling of the southern border that resulted in the loss of American lives. Because those were official acts while those people were President.

Not sure what you mean. If I buy a TV from Best Buy and then realize it won't fit in the wall mount so I take it back, they credit my CC immediately. It might not show up immediately due to the processing time of banks and what not, but the refund transaction will be immediate. I don't see why airlines can't do similarly once the product that was purchased is no longer available.

Nope, and from what I've heard about this Pecker guy's testimony he says "I think" and "I assume" a lot.

Oh, and for any Beastie Boys fans, the two remaining members did a nice documentary a couple years ago. On Apple TV IIRC. Worth a watch.

Here ya go: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/23/technology/general-motors-spying-driver-data-consent.html

1) Your discount for being a good driver is baked in to the base rate they quoted you. They know if you have tickets/accidents/etc.... 2) Those apps are crap. GM just got sued for taking the type of data you described that their cars were tracking and selling it directly to the insurance industry. The problem with those apps is they don't have context. Let's say I slam on my brakes to avoid running in to the person in front of me who slammed on their brakes. They could penalize me for that when in actuality I just avoided an accident. I would never voluntarily allow that type of data to be tracked for my vehicles.

Bump for MDC

Why did Columbia announce remote learning for the rest of the term and why did the President of Columbia say the following regarding the remote learning?:

Oh, well if some sound engineer none of us have ever heard of, in an article where the only other example they cite is One Direction, says it it must be true. WTF is wrong with you?

You were right about the Beastie Boys, but you're wrong here. I have no idea what Taylor Swift does in concert because I have no desire to see her in concert. But the BANDS that I DO go see sure as hell don't pipe anything in. What type of performers do YOU go see in concert?

Don't know if that's gonna be any good but I'm gonna see it that's for sure.

Come on man. "The Trevor Project" is one of the most respected, non partisan think tanks in the world with world renowned scientists doing SERIOUS research!!!

You just love making stuff up. Love me or hate me, very few people on this forum will dispute that I form my opinions based on data and I back that sh*t up, just as I did today. I have since the day I joined almost 20 years ago. Then we have you who I have shown to be factually wrong on at least 10 occasions since you started posting here in earnest, which is what 6 months? Remember when you thought Trump's civil case in NY was about Taxes, and accused me of clinging to irrelevant details when I told you you were wrong, and then you had to eat crow? Who had the opinion without the facts in that case? And rinse and repeat over and over again.

Come on man. We Chiefs fans have to stick together!!!!

I've told you all a bunch of times. Tim forms an opinion and then looks for supporting evidence, regardless of how specious that evidence is. If I were to support an argument for banning abortion with links to a pro-life site he'd discount it immediately, but he posts links to a site just as questionable to support the opinion he's formed regarding gender affirming care, all the while calling a report commissioned by the NHS in England disputed and controversial, which is ridiculous. The NHS said the following about the Cass report: https://www.england.nhs.uk/long-read/nhs-englands-response-to-the-final-report-of-the-independent-review-of-gender-identity-services-for-children-and-young-people/

England's NHS is neither disputed nor controversial. Most countries have followed the lead of countries pulling back on medical gender affirming care until more research is done. There is no disputing some of the negative effects of some of these treatments and the positive outcomes ARE disputed. The recommendations in the Cass report don't even preclude medical treatment of gender dysphoria, which you'd know if you bothered to read it. The U.S. is the outlier. Hitching your wagon the stance of people in the U.S. is gonna bite you in the butt.

As far as I can tell only one person is pushing the mantra that you can't say we, and it's the OP.

Nice! I'm at the opposite end of the spectrum, having what may be the smallest Maine Coon in existence. She weights like 6 pounds.

Ooh, you got me!!!!

You have a cat? Well, now we know Sux is in. How wide is the cat's b*tthole?

I'm glad they did that. But I'm disappointed that it was only a couple of Republicans that caused that and the others are out there saying it shouldn't have passed. As you've noted in the past, it's not a good look. Even if one is pro life, they should be able to acknowledge that there's got to be a middle ground, a compromise, on this issue. It's not going to be banned so find a reasonable middle ground that most Americans are good with and pass that. I just don't understand wtf these people are doing. You got Roe overturned. Now do the right thing.

You got the full interviews for each of those statements? I can buy in February him saying "It's going to go away" and meaning it's just going to fade away. By September I doubt he's saying that. I suspect he's saying after the vaccine is ready, because it was getting close at that point and he knew a hell of a lot more about that than we did, it will go away. So you're posting snippets without context, which is your go to move, but it's not compelling. At least not to me. But you keep trying to have your "gotcha" moment with me. You're going to have do a hell of a lot better than edited snippets. Oh, and in case you haven't noticed, it has gone away. It has zero impact on society any more. So he wasn't wrong, was he?
