I remember when the presidential candidate's staff abused employees at Arlington cemetery.

YouTube, and forums for questions. Many popular patterns have videos.

I think places like apostrophe patterns are good for beginner patterns because they do fully custom patterns based on your measurements.

For a starter machine, definitely do research, because shitty sewing machines suck to use soooo much and pull any fun out of sewing. People online seem to really like Juki. My girlfriend has a brother, and it definitely feels kinda cheap and has trouble with thick stuff sometimes.

If you're really into sewing, a serger is totally worth it, A cover stitch is nice to have.

Sewing! My girlfriend is into it and had some machines already. It's way easier and more fun than I expected.

Lol what? Then why'd you bring up the weight of a bunch of random SUVs? In that case, EVs are super heavy. My Miata weighs 2000lb and the hummer EV weighs 10,000lb. That's definitely more than a few hundred pounds difference.

But the bolt ev is a hatchback. The bolt EUV which is a small crossover is 3700lb, so comparing it to mid and large size crossovers is unfair to them, as they have more cargo and passenger room.

The CX3 weighs 3000lb, the Crosstrek is 3300lb, Honda HRV is 3200, the Taos is 3200lb, the Corolla cross is 3200lb, etc.

In the category of mid/large crossovers, a Model Y is 4200lb, an ID4 is 4500lb, and ioniq 5 is roughly 4200lb, an ev6 is 4200lb etc. and most of these go way higher too with long range options.

Ohhh that makes sense.

I up voted you because the weights aren't that drastically different rn, but a Chevy Bolt is 3500lb while a larger civic with more cargo and passenger room is 3000.

Wouldn't CAFE standards push them to smaller more efficient cars, or am I misunderstanding what CAFE standards are?

As for affordable cars, I think it's fairly easy for the auto industry to just raise prices while extending financing terms longer and longer and advertise $299/mo (with 180 mo financing, $6k down, at 8% interest excluding taxes and fees).

I can't imagine the difficulty of resolving this, especially since most of the AI models are available for free use.

Ohhh I thought for metal. For plastic this makes sense. I'd think for metal it'd come loose.

A) Any of the wholesale clubs will sell big bags or cheap good quality coffee.

B) Most grocery stores will sell small bags of good cheap coffee.

I do whichever of the above is easiest for me based on where I need groceries.

To be fair, free camping trips with the homies, doing "games of skill" against other groups of campers, getting to use high tech machinery for free, and getting paid for it while you're at it? It does sound like a ton of fun minus the whole dying/killing part. 😂
