I collected Marvel cards back in the 90s and I'm pretty sure I have at least a few that are official "collectors items" now. I've never looked into it very thoroughly since I just kept them in baseball card pages with no other particular protection from the climate, etc, but who knows?

Pretty sure that was more than one time

Only when the tree shoots first

I think it's slightly more nuanced - not all OTAs are recalls, and not all recalls are OTAs (for Tesla). Depending on the issue (for Teslas), the solution may be pushed via an OTA in which case they "issue a recall" with a software update. They're actually going through this right now. For some other issues though, it's a hardware problem that an OTA won't fix so they issue a recall to repair the problem (ex: when the wiring harness for their cameras was fraying the cables).

This is 100% from the NHTSA shenanigans, though.

The literal elephant in the room is Mastodon, the open source, decentralized social network that’s been around since 2016, years before Bluesky existed. While the platforms share similar goals, they use different protocols, making it difficult for the platforms to work together.

Quick, someone link the xkcd

As someone in my early 40s, I can confirm that 50 year olds were born almost 100 years ago. Right? ...right??

I'm a die-hard AC fan, but typically only play through the game/story once and then put it on the shelf. This year, I picked up the UbiWhatever subscription at $15/mo, played through AC Mirage in a couple of weeks, and dropped the subscription. It's even better than waiting for a sale!

cloud hyperscaler

I know you're technically right, but their "cloud" is the weirdest offering I have ever seen

Florida here. They have adequate coverage, but there are caps in some extra options or high-end tell estate. The bigger issue is that all the other instance agencies are pulling out of the state so Citizens (the state insurance) is having to cover more and more to the point that the state is just one direct hurricane hit away from insolvency.

Came here to say this exact thing. WTF is he still doing in office?

I wouldn't worry about it too much, the concept cars always look sleek and then the manufacturers poop out something that looks way more standard. See: the Chevy Volt.
