> even if you're not driving in downtown Manhattan, you will still pay the cost to enter the city through the normal entrances
Incorrect--if you take one of those bridges/tunnels below 60th street, then stay on FDR or West Side Highway to travel to a different part of NYC (i.e. you never enter the interior surface streets below 60th), then you don't pay the congestion fee.
"The Congestion Relief Zone includes local streets and avenues in Manhattan south of and including 60 Street, excluding the FDR Drive, West Side Highway/Route 9A, and the Hugh L. Carey Tunnel connections to West Street."
what distracts from my technical content is vacuous, aggressive replies to it by people who ask me to take responsibility for their behavior. no, thank you
to you too i ask: which of these two kinds of discourse are you engaging in right now?
if you're capable of the other one, i suggest you demonstrate that
your comment purports to be concerned with the objective qualities of mine: 'pointless', 'distracting', 'provocative'. but actually all of these terms are attempts to recast your subjective preferences as objective realities; all you're really writing about is how you feel when you read my comments. the implicit premise here is that other people ought to be writing their comments in order to satisfy your preferences
why? what makes you so admirable? what reason does anyone in the world have to value your opinion or consider your preferences important? if you want comments written to satisfy your preferences, write them yourself
as far as i can tell, like 38, gruturo, and spencerflem, you're just a person who harasses strangers on internet fora if you think they talk funny, then blames your own behavior on them
you want to know what i feel?
because it sure isn't admiration and eagerness to satisfy you
> Agreed, but that noise can be contained with an effective Faraday screening.
I don’t think car manufacturers are saying they don’t know how to shield, they’re saying it would come at a cost:
"Requiring the installation of analog AM radios in automobiles is an unnecessary action that would impact EV range, efficiency and affordability at a critical moment of accelerating adoption," -the fine article
Well, what are those costs? Perhaps they're not wanting to resign components that were badly design in the first instance. If so, then that's unacceptable. Moreover, a redesign would benefit over the long term.
I smell short-term thinking here and concern over their current problem of falling profits from EVs
That's exactly how it works. The script scanned the dictionary for pangrams and then built the puzzles from that list, filtering out pangrams that didn't meet the other rules for the game.
I don't know the specifics in the UK, but in the US this was a common belief among a certain political class in the 1960s and 70s. You had skilled blue collar laborers making the equivalent of $30/hr and politicians and some economists felt that was too high. Paul Volcker very famously carried around a card with US autoworker wages printed on it.
