@GrailArchive Just a rebadged Changan A07

Nissan built the N7 in China, priced it under $20k, and made it look like a six figure sedan. The rest of the industry should be worried

@p_misirov @elonmusk You need an electrician, a plumber and a cable person to build the data center and then anybody with a pulse to run one.

heya @elonmusk wonder if you can make something happen so people learn practical skills about data centers? there's definitely a talent shortage in this industry, especially if we want to put data centers in space and on the moon in the next 5-10 years

there is a game called "data center" on steam which let's you build and manage your own data center. this is lowkey genius, the best way to educate people on a new trait. hyperscalers should learn a thing or two from "edutainment".

@RoadandTrack ///M is for Marketing

30 new BMW M cars coming in 30 months, CEO says, but the stick shift’s days may be numbered. bit.ly/3OfhV7T

@carwowuk There are 10 GT3 RS purists who will be upset and 990 non-purists who will dismiss it and buy it for a weekend trip to the coffee shop.

SPOTTED: Porsche 911 GT3 RS goes Turbo! To clear Euro 7 emissions, Porsche is reportedly swapping the iconic N/A flat-six for a turbocharged setup. It’s a first for the lineage—and a tough pill to swallow for purists. 🥲 Is it still a "real" GT3 RS without the naturally aspirated flat-six? 🤔

@Leonhitchens @mhp_guy Still need to inspect your vehicle in the major cities in Texas, they just ignore the safety inspection.

@mhp_guy Texas got rid inspection now you just renew online. It is such a time saver

I haven't renewed my car registration in years, and may never again. Why? Math: The ticket cost is $100 - $200, whether I'm 1 or 10+ years expired. It takes 1-2 annoying hours/year to get inspected and renew, and only 20 mins to get pulled over & pay the fine. Let's say I get pulled over once every 3 years. I'm paying $70/year to save 2 hours doing an annoying task. Oh, and that's not even including the cost of the registration or the inspection! That's a net win, my friends. Also, if I get pulled over, it's usually for speeding, which mean's they'll almost always fine me EITHER for speeding OR the expired tag. Rarely both. So I win. It's a waste of money & time. Procrastination pays. Incentives drive outcomes. This is not engagement bait BTW. This is what I actually do.

@btbytes @mhp_guy No, it takes less than 5min to renew in TxT app.

@mhp_guy it takes 10 minutes online to renew the plates in Indiana. Do you have to go the DMV to renew plates in TX?

@ltgiv @atutruckers Sarah’s research points out something that is well known in the business community- multiple companies at the same address(shell) regardless if it’s commercial or residential. State/federal law doesn’t prohibit this. I’m not defending the driver, just stating the obvious.

@ekuzustx @atutruckers Here you go, but I’d recommend starting at the top of the thread:

Many Non-Citizen truck drivers operating in the United States on Non-Domicile CDLs have been discovered working from Ghost Offices. These trucking companies are using fake addresses and stacking multiple motor carrier numbers into one location. Further proof that our agencies are selectively enforcing the law to the detriment of the entire trucking industry.

@TinyTiger1962 @atutruckers @SecDuffy Umm, this admin literally just allowed this behavior in February when they removed mandatory principal registrations for shell companies/addresses.

@atutruckers @SecDuffy fake trucking registration addresses

@ltgiv @atutruckers Clearly not an apartment complex address. Current administration recently allowed shell companies to NOT report principal names and addresses, just an FYI. In other words, we are allowing this behavior for everyone.

@atutruckers The foreigner who killed all of these people in Austin, driving for Amazon, is registered this way. The registration ties back to a set of shell companies using random addresses out of an apartment complex. Both cops and witnesses thought he’s inebriated—nope, just that stupid.

@TrisSpeak @FreightAlley Foreigners will navigate tariffs better than you. Good luck!

So far, there no signs that tariff threats are driving inflation. A lot of the data suggests the opposite. The lack of clarity around tariffs appears to be causing businesses to pull back investment sharply. Watching the freight charts in recent days has me highly concerned.

@KMBEST77 @WallStreetApes @DOGE @elonmusk Why tag Elon or Doge? They’re doing the opposite- removing consumer protections and bank oversight, so, banks can do and ask whatever they want. 💪

Banks in America are out of control ‌ Business owner is “livid” ‌ She went to close her business account, the bank refused. She was told in order to close her account “I had to dissolve my business and show them proof of that before they would close out my business account” ‌ “Excuse me? I came to you to open my business account. I’m the owner, I’m the only one who signs on everything. Why can't I close my business account?” ‌ This feels even worse than being interrogated every time you try and withdrawal money out of your account. This is getting ridiculous…

@ShannonJean @q76jmss67y Vapor.

@q76jmss67y Like a bead blaster?

Side hustle idea # 437: Pick up old engines for cheap (free?). Pressure wash (I can help you buy a pallet 😂) Turn them into coffee tables that sell for $5,500. Rinse and repeat.

@ItsJustAdam86 @UltraLinx Congrats but that doesn’t sound very healthy.

Harsh reality many people don’t want to accept. Losing weight is stupidly simple.

@timmywa @carsales_guy Don’t do it. Buying crowd today have unrealistic expectations.

@carsales_guy Can you recommend starting a car sales career after a 20 year career in IT? I'm looking for work currently and have flirted with the idea of a career change to automotive sales.

In my experience: From a risk-reward standpoint, there’s little benefit to selling a car to a private party vs. a dealer. Typically, the additional profit isn’t worth the extra exposure. Dealerships spend millions in attorney fees, systems, and insurance to protect themselves while selling cars. The average person is not equipped to deal with the potential crazies when selling vehicles. That extra 2k you lost out on because you traded your car to a dealer is the cost of peace of mind.

@NathanMcNulty @DenverHartlo Be careful with “free”, some tables from the “free” tier can be VERY noisy.

@DenverHartlo It all depends on what you ingest. If you stick to free sources, there is no cost. And with Unified XDR, that means you can correlate across Defender and Sentinel data, including using things like fileProfile() from Defender against Sentinel data 🥳

If you are a Defender XDR customer but don't use Sentinel - you should absolutely add Sentinel with all the free sources The Unified XDR allows us to expand Advanced Hunting to include Sentinel data, and this allows us to do things neither Sentinel nor Defender could do alone

@MikeSyl36625988 People need to travel outside of US to get a perspective on how great we have it here regardless of age, politics and other differences.

In a lot of my recent threads I have been surprised at how upset people are. I should not be surprised, the divisions in America are growing. Young vs Old. Liberal vs Conservative. The haves vs the have nots. And on and on and on. In my opinion we need to unite as a country. We need politicians who are leaders and honestly at the National level there is zero leadership.

@Beefisliberty @MikeSyl36625988 Yes, because between 2020 and 2023 there was hardly any new inventory.

@ekuzustx @MikeSyl36625988 That’s really not common. The average age of cars on the road is increasing all over the nation.

If you want to know one reason why so many people in America are broke, keep reading. The average cost of a new car in the United States is $49,000. The average interest rate to finance it is 7.2%. The most common length of a new car loan is 72 months. If you make no downpayment, then the average monthly payment is $840.12 per month. Financial experts recommend you spend no more than 10% of your take home pay (Pay after income taxes and employee portion of Social Security and Medicare taxes) on a car payment. Let's say you are single. Live in Fort Wayne, Indiana. You do not contribute to retirement at work because you want to buy a new car. Your employer withholds the correct amount of Federal, State, and County income taxes. You have a great job and make gross wages of $135,000. This is your only source of income. Your take home pay is $8,000 per month. 10% of this is $800. In this situation, our single individual who earns $135,000 in gross wages on a W-2 is stretching it to afford the average new car, and this is shocking. Most people cannot afford to buy a new car unless they have a significant down payment or make a lot of money. Do not even get me started on the average SUV. #cpa #ea #tax #accounting #finance #financialplanning #carloans #loans #smb #Financial #FinancialFreedom #financialeducation #FinancialLiteracy #financialmarket

@reprise_99 Sounds great but you’d never see such resume because an ATS software would filter it out and/or HR wouldn’t be able to match achievements to job description.

If I could offer one piece of resume advice, don't copy and paste your job description into your resume and ship it. Tell me about your achievements, what you delivered, what you are most proud of completing and what you're passionate about. I promise it will stand out!

@reprise_99 I like my tools to be "fully deployed" with OOB defaults.

If you were (or are) a CISO, what are your 5 non-negotiables? For me: 1. If it's vulnerable, it's being patched 2. Connecting to a VPN? You are coming from a device I trust. 3. MFA everywhere. 4. Any security tools are fully deployed and actively monitored 5. I get all the logs
