I've read time and time again that police will not use any type of "Find my...." tracker because they simply aren't accurate enough. Yes, can be 99-100% correct in location many times but other times they are not.

Sorry if the sarcasm (about the cost of med school) went over your head

This is wonderful news for the 100 students that will receive this assistance !

Something is missing from your story. UPS doesn't know you and where you used to live.

People are talking about two different things. The post above is referring to the plastic, hinged cover that goes over the positive battery terminal. Those do break frequently on some cars because of the plastic they chose to use. I've personally never seen a plastic battery hold-down bracket. Not saying they don't exist, of course. They've all been metal, usually the J-hook type with two threaded rods and then a metal bar that goes between those rods. Most have a rubbery or plastic piece molded over the bar to help from cutting into the battery if someone gets overzealous tightening it down.

I have a 2008 Infiniti and the original positive terminal cover is still in place and working fine.

Ughhh, imagine if YT does this on top of videos that already have the "I want to thank XXX for being one of our sponsors. XXX will help you with this and that and blah, blah, blah..." for 2-3 minutes.

uBlock Origin is still getting beat by YouTube, then uBO catches up, then YT beats them, and the cycle keeps repeating. uBO is updating their filters every (12) hours in order to win against YouTube and I'm not sure how long they will continue doing that. If you haven't encountered a blocked video, it's just lucky timing on your part.

I know too many people see "battery" and jump on the anti-EV bandwagon but this has nothing to do with that. It's also no fault of Toyota's for what is happening here as it specifically is related to replacement batteries, not Toyota-installed ones. This is an installation failure and not a Toyota defect. Good on Toyota for taking care of it though.

Funny how our congressional reps don't like it when lobbyists ($$$) fight against them yet those same reps take money from lobbyists every day in order to pass laws that businesses, etc want passed.

From what I've read, reddit doesn't serve ads in subreddits or in message threads marked as "NSFW" so this will hurt them financially. The moderators went this intentionally and for this reason, it seems, as well.

When I first read about the planned blackout of reddit, I kept thinking maybe slashdot.org could make a big return ! This was my reddit back in '97-98 with CmdrTaco.

As for the blackout/boycott, I haven't opened Apollo since Sunday evening and on my computers, I removed my 'bookmark' just to avoid the temptation. I kinda want to see what it looks like but don't want to contribute any clicks or visits either so I do my part in showing the impact.

Apollo offers a subscription option and the developer has already indicated that even if he applied all of that to the reddit 'charges', it wouldn't be enough. This is obviously based on the current number of users that pay for a subscription. Will thousands and thousands of users switch from the free version to subscription ? I really doubt it.

I wonder how Netflix will treat situations where a child or children are away at college using the family's Netflix account. Yes, this is the case with us. We/they aren't going to pay for their own account so we'll see how this goes.

Have to give them folks credit in this regard. They really do stick to their principles. No doubt they do they same with things like mobile phones too.
