Maybe a Murano Pilot Cabriolet

Mitsubishi the conglomerate or Mitsubishi the automaker? The former seems good but not the latter.

They definitely need to pump the brakes on this potential merger.

It is a big, untapped market but it's not a big market for the Leaf. Tesla sold 3x more Model 3 in the last year alone than Nissan has sold in the entire 14 year production run of the Leaf. It's a hot mess.

I built my own and it honestly wasn't that expensive (at the time back in 2018). I just started with the basics but built it to be expandable. I used a Define 6 case which gave me room for 12 HDDs, a mobo with the highest number of SATA ports, processor, RAM, etc and then just added drives 1-2 at a time as they filled up. My only regret is that I didn't and still haven't learned Linux well enough to rely on it because it runs Windows, the PC is showing its age now, and I need to think about the replacement solution and how I'll be able to migrate 70+ TB of media and all my configurations to the new machine.

If you do run Windows, Drivepool and SnapRAID are useful for pooling everything into a single virtual disk and setting up a software RAID that will protect from drive failures without locking your data away.

It should be when you've been building the exact same truck for 20 years straight.

I wouldn't say they have much of a head start. They did come out with the Leaf pretty early on but they didn't really capitalize on that and their design is quite dated by this point.

Well you're good at ignoring the party allowing Republicans to control everything, so I'm not too surprised that it comes easy to you.

Wrong again. That'd be the DNC since they run the party and keep choosing these right-wing status quo dinosaurs that can't win elections. You forgot to include the incredibly narrow 2020 win for Biden in your list too. He nearly lost despite being in tne midst of Trump ruining the economy and letting a plague run wild.

It's support like yours and an unwillingness to hold them accountable for refusing to stand against Republicans and backing right-wing candidates that made the past three presidential elections as terrible as they are. It's definitely a trend under their leadership.

I'd argue the person who defends abhorrent actions just because they're being conducted by their "team" is the liar and the asshole. They're lying to themselves about doing "good" and being an asshole by propping up these destructive politicians to the detriment of us all.

Republicans being evil doesn't make Democrats the good guys. We don't live in a Marvel movie.

As I said in my other comment to you:

The 5 word responses that amount to little more than meme or bumper sticker phrases just proves that your position is indefensible.

Only if you think slapping a coat of paint on a dilapidated house makes it livable again. Republicans want to turn the country into a dystopian nightmare, and Democrats have proven time and time again through their actions that they're more than willing to, at worst, help it along, or at best, do nothing to stop it.

You can choose to believe the empty promises and hopium, but I don't. A bunch of sycophants who are more preoccupied with deflecting criticism than actually wanting to fix things or hold politicians accountable aren't going to change my mind. The 5 word responses that amount to little more than meme or bumper sticker phrases just proves that your position is indefensible.
