A few other articles say the Eames Archive is in Richmond and is run by their granddaughter.

Their daughter owns a ranch in Petaluma.

Making a habit of good sleep hygiene is a good thing…

Only if you get bitten by one.

Nothing is wrong with archive.ph , but it’s good to have a backup in case it goes down, or if it starts failing for some reason.

Every Google account comes with 15GB of free storage.

Make as many Google accounts as you need.

Store files in Google Drive up to the limit for each account, then add links to the other GDrive archives.

Organize the files as needed.

Maybe make a free web page in Wix, Wordpress, or whatever with links to the files easy to search and find.

Pass the userid and passwords to the GDrive and webpages to whomever wants to be your successor.

You will be dependent on the generosity of Google, Wix, Wordpress or whatever to not cleanup the webpages and files due to inactivity.

So keep a backup. Torrents can be messy because they can be broken if there are no seeders.

If the content is static, then I’d recommend some older P2P filesharing like eD2K to keep one big zip/rar file backup shared among peers.

How about taking away blame on either motorists and pedestrians, and putting it all down to risk:

The more cars and the more pedestrians that you put together in an urban area, the more pedestrian car accidents are just bound to happen.

Reduce either of those numbers, and the number of pedestrian car accidents goes down.

Among other problems that denser housing and better public transit would solve…

Still beats talking to the toaster.

The world is mostly gray areas. Hardly anything is absolute.

Opening up EVs to indie mechanics would be a godsend for competition and maintenance costs.

I remember this story from 2018… https://www.vice.com/en/article/rich-rebuilds-tesla-repair-and-salvage/

…that’s about what we would call “Right To Repair” these days.

Bad headline grammar!

I wonder if there’s a /c for that?

including one in South San Francisco

The now-shuttered facilities also include San Mateo, Santa Cruz, Gilroy and Madera.

The economy around here does seem a bit sluggish these last couple of months…

One thing that bothers me is that there are so many battery technologies:

Lithium ion, semi-solid state, solid state; and so many variants within each technology.

Replacement batteries may become difficult to source if you choose a vehicle that has one that happens to become unsupported.

An electric car isn’t like a smartphone: When the battery starts going south, it’s not affordable to just recycle it and get a new one.

And it’s not like a digital camera either: The rechargeable batteries aren’t cheap and small enough to where you can hoard up on batteries in case the manufacturer goes belly up.

…consumer stigma around Chinese manufacturing…

LOL You probably typed this on a device made in China.

But more specifically to the auto industry: In prior decades, waves of Japanese, then Korean cars first flooded the US market with cheap cars in the 70s and 90s respectively.

Their affordability addressed a market need, and they sold well each time.

The Japanese and Korean manufacturers improved quality and cost in the decades after each wave arrived.

The cost of new cars in the US is ridiculous right now.

I think cheap cars of reasonable quality would sell well here.

Not to mention ripping Pokemon boosters, Sonny Angels, and Labubus.

Crocodile tears.

It was always the CCP/government’s intention to a) quickly transition China’s domestic auto fleet to electric, b) build their domestic EV industry, and c) flood foreign markets with electric vehicles to grab and dominate market share and destroy foreign competitors by dumping product.

And they’re getting all of it.

Not that they’re the first Asian Tiger country to do that kind of thing.

Then the guy gets a Federal cabinet post.
