Yes. Georgia has no specific law about this, so by default it will count. I also believe I read they can't find individual peoples votes for privacy reasons, so there is no way to pull it back.
If you can legally vote when voting opens in Georgia and do so, it will count.
You can counter sue, so we kind of have that system.
Yes. That was mid september. The actual "founders" sold within days, but this transaction is about a month later.
I took a geology course in college. The raw giddiness the professor hit on seeing a very bland gray rock still makes me laugh thinking about it. Dude was starstruck by a large grey lump. I'm sure it was a very excellent rock, but I can't recall now what made it so amazing. Something about glaciers.
I think he would have gladly licked the rock if he thought no one was looking.
I 100% believe the above.
If so that's great. I was hearing 10-15% less goods moved for battery semis, which is still probably worth it, but a hard pill to swallow in an industry that is severely understaffed.
From Robert Kahn and Vinton Cerf (the men who invented TCP/IP, which the modern internet is based on):
As far back as the 1970s Congressman Gore promoted the idea of high speed telecommunications as an engine for both economic growth and the improvement of our educational system. He was the first elected official to grasp the potential of computer communications to have a broader impact than just improving the conduct of science and scholarship. Though easily forgotten, now, at the time this was an unproven and controversial concept. Our work on the Internet started in 1973 and was based on even earlier work that took place in the mid-late 1960s. But the Internet, as we know it today, was not deployed until 1983. When the Internet was still in the early stages of its deployment, Congressman Gore provided intellectual leadership by helping create the vision of the potential benefits of high speed computing and communication. As an example, he sponsored hearings on how advanced technologies might be put to use in areas like coordinating the response of government agencies to natural disasters and other crises.
As a Senator in the 1980s Gore urged government agencies to consolidate what at the time were several dozen different and unconnected networks into an "Interagency Network." Working in a bi-partisan manner with officials in Ronald Reagan and George Bush's administrations, Gore secured the passage of the High Performance Computing and Communications Act in 1991. This "Gore Act" supported the National Research and Education Network (NREN) initiative that became one of the major vehicles for the spread of the Internet beyond the field of computer science.
As Vice President Gore promoted building the Internet both up and out, as well as releasing the Internet from the control of the government agencies that spawned it. He served as the major administration proponent for continued investment in advanced computing and networking and private sector initiatives such as Net Day. He was and is a strong proponent of extending access to the network to schools and libraries. Today, approximately 95% of our nation's schools are on the Internet. Gore provided much-needed political support for the speedy privatization of the Internet when the time arrived for it to become a commercially-driven operation.
The above was just a GOP hit piece like when they swiftboated Kerry, I.e when they took something really excellent about a politician, distorted it into an inane strawman, and then mocked it endlessly until people believed in the strawman.
No info on total tonnage hauled either. Most electric semis will not be able to haul as much stuff at once.
Musk is a liar. He said he wasn't going to donate to Trump in July when news leaked about his 45mil/month promise, but he was already donating, and is still donating now.
This week, there was more proof that Musk has put his money where his mouth has been. According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Musk poured tens of millions of dollars into Republican campaigns and conservative groups even before he publicly endorsed Donald Trump in July. Conservatives helped conceal Musk’s contributions through so-called social welfare or “dark money” groups that do not have to disclose their donors and can raise unlimited funds. (Musk did not respond to the Journal’s request for comment.)
One piece of reporting stood out. The newspaper found that the tech billionaire donated more than $50 million in 2022 for campaign advertisements by Citizens for Sanity, a group connected to former Trump aide Stephen Miller and his non-profit America First Legal, which bills itself as “the long-awaited answer to the ACLU.”
Musk has also directly aligned himself with Trump, founding a super PAC called America PAC to get 800,000 people to vote for the former president in key battleground states. According to the Guardian, Trump’s ground operation in swing states are now mostly outsourced to America PAC, and Business Insider said that Musk is now shelling out millions to Republicans in 15 competitive House races. Yesterday, Politico reported that America PAC was teaming up with Turning Point Action, the political advocacy division of Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA, to fund hundreds of “ballot chasers” in Wisconsin.
Hes also dumped at least 300k in to general GOP races directly:
The National Republican Congressional Committee reported receiving $289,100 from Musk in August, according to its report filed with the Federal Election Commission Friday.
It can be, especially if you have steady tenants.
I know ex landlords of mine that barely had to pay out anything over the course of years, while they made 5 figures/year.
Even as a home owner, you can have a string of luck. I have relatives with 20 year old water heaters going strong.
There are breakers on individual stocks now in both directions I believe. It's not a market wide stop.
