Ok, but do you know anyone this has happened to? I don't and I have some pretty old drives I still use. I tend to just buy more. Also most drives these days are solid state aren't they? This just feels like a low probability event to me. Overheating RAM or the CPU or GPU, sure, but hard drive?

Link didn't work for me.

Went to check the numbers and this site says the total number of Tesla deaths is higher(although not specifically from fires)

www.tesladeaths.com

So you've had this happen?

I didn't know hard drive overheating was a thing. Should I be worried that my 5 year old hard drive is about to overheat. I mean is this actually a floppy disk or something?

Yup, put up a bigger fight than these so-called democratic leaders.

I can understand that some people become afraid of Nazis and bend the knee, but these people didn't even put up a fight.

What does it mean the US has reached out? Individual store chains? State governments? Certainly not Trump.

I hope you're right and it ends this whole shit show.

Except I thought he was only elected by 31% of the public and at least a small portion of them are turning against him too. Remember a lot of people didn't vote.

I think you may have missed a small but important part of the concept. I believe women also felt the LIKELIHOOD of a man being dangerous was higher than the bear's, for all the reasons you stated.

If women had overall very favorable interactions with men they might choose the man in the woods because a bear is very unlikely to help her. So the man would be the obvious choice with such a low probability event. But to them, it isn't low probability and that speaks volumes.

Pretty sure THEY are the ones missing something. They've been brainwashed into thinking you should be embarrassed NOT to shun your family so you can be at work 24/7 to make someone else rich. Take advantage of that program while it still exists.

Am I the only one who thinks 53% of people disapproving of his performance is actually a pretty good record for him. This number should be in the 90's.

Good.

Uh oh, Democrats are outraged. There will be hell to pay now.

Yeah, we should definitely hurt Canada economically. I mean screw our best ally and longest lasting friendship.

Retaliatory measures don't have to include taxing your own people. I suggest merely rallying people around the cause of boycotting US products does more good.

A tariff is a tax on the country imposing the tariff. The only way it actually hurts the country that the tariff is placed against, is if people stop buying the foreign products. But in the case of a tax on steel or aluminum, that would require people to avoid all products made with foreign steel/aluminum. This is nearly impossible. So it only hurts Australians in this case.

Plus that's not how capitalism works. A real example from Trump's first term was a tariff imposed on washing machines. The tariff made foreign washing machines more expensive than domestic ones. So far, so good. What did American companies do? Raised the price of domestic washing machines to match that of foreign ones in a greedy grab for profits. This meant the incentive to buy American washing machines was nullified. You know what people also buy when they buy a washer in the US? They buy a dryer. So the price of dryers went up as well, even though there was no tariff on those. So in the end all that happened was Americans wound up spending more for washers and dryers. Why would a country want to do that to its own people?

You're screwed no matter what you do. As right wing as Australia has become, I can't believe I'm saying this, but good job Australia.

There are other ways to retaliate. China doesn't mess around. They outright banned certain companies from operating there and denied sales of certain needed elements to the US.

Finally! Someone who gets it.

Should rename it to EDA( Environmental Destruction Agency).

Or Environmental Freedom Force for short.
