GM is trying to argue that you just license the use of your vehicle due to the software that runs the car.

Stupid idea.
1. Hardware has always been owned (example, PCs), not licensed, unless
2. There was an explicit licensing agreement rather than a purchase and
3. Is GM on some kind of suicide attempt?

When somebody effs up your car company, the vitriol splashes back. It lessens the pedigree of things built under their name before any of the current principals were born. Allowing these things to happen has been a defeat of one of the nearest and dearest quirks of American life.

Aside from the profits still ultimately flowing back to Nippon, and Toyota cars having all the Fun Factor of a sink full of used dishwater, it's the "gadgets" that would steer me away. Yes, most of the fancy electronic stuff is pretty reliable, but I simply don't want it. I don't want the car to make decisions for me, park itself or nag me when it doesn't like my driving. Nor do I want it keeping tabs on how/where I'm driving, either for the Home Office or, in some cases, the Feds.
Saw an ad yesterday for a '53 Buick with a reported 31K original miles on it. Not my ideal car, but far more appealing to me than a new anything.

Food distribution has been used as a weapon before.

In the quaint little village where I live, plenty o' SAABs remain. There is, in fact, a repair shop that seems to concentrate on them; at least they are lined up out front most days. Not many miles up the road, a place called "Yankee Garage" routinely has its parking area stuffed with SAABs and Volvos.
It should also be noted that Oldsmobiles and Pontiacs remain plentiful in my neighborhood. They may outnumber Subarus, though not Toyotas.

Fuck cancer.. my neighbor died over the weekend after a 6 month battle.. a healthy, robust 52 yr old.. he was the guy on the block with the perfect lawn and immaculate, organized garage.. he was talking about retiring early.. Then we watched him whither away.
shit..
I was never a huge Bowie fan, but admired the artistic risks he took over the years.
Fuck cancer.

My friend had a '76 or '77 Cutlass Supreme, and I was with him when he hit 250,000 miles in the summer of '81. He wrote them a letter figuring they'd be eager to crow about that from a PR angle. Never heard from them.
Meh, Oldsmobile couldn't promote the Cutlass as the Ted Kennedy amphibian mobile, so there you go.

Actually, it was wonderful GM that killed them.
Once Genial Motors decided they should be Opels -- or Subarus! -- with "SAAB" nameplates, the rot set in and the company was toast.
GM cut them loose and the only interested "buyer" was a nutball who was building an overpriced bling-encrusted "supercar" that nobody wanted. With no money, he couldn't revive the brand.

Question: Would you consider leasing a used car?
I'm looking to invest in a relatively new operation that leases low mileage, higher end used cars. Because the big drop in value from new has already been absorbed by the first buyer, a used car lease allows the customer to drive a much better equipped car than they normally could afford for a low monthly cost.

I always thought seeing Bowie do "Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth" with Bing was just incredible. It came at the end of the hippie era and was almost as if it was a reconciliation between the older generation and rebellious youth.
Beyond that, it was just so revelatory about both Bing's and Bowie's openness and respect for one another's talents, despite by outward appearance being from so very different backgrounds.
And then of course it was all the more poignant that Bing passed away within a week or so of that duet.
Well, I imagine both are reunited and really making some incredible music.

I'm not on FB, but my wife is, and I check in to see new baby pictures of relatives and such.
The had-wringing over Trump is in full force. The anti-religious ranting is at top-volume. The endless parade of moronicism in the name of good ol' lefty values is boiling hard.
I'm almost of a mind that it's peaking as they desperately try to hold on to the top spot, and they see it collapsing around them like Barry's Peace in the Middle East.

"I've tried to tell people over and over (and no one will listen, "because science!") that, it doesn't matter which side of the "are GMOs safe?" debate you fall on, allowing a corporation to hold the copyright on the genetic structure of a food staple is the dumbest idea in the history of civilization. Food distribution has been used as a weapon before.
And now they want to use your ability to travel as a weapon. I can't wait to hear... "Hey! My car left last night without me and now I don't know where it is!" "Oh, that must be because you made some homophobic comment on the internet yesterday."

Wouldn't have to all worked out right now (it's a lot of money and you'd need an ethical investment person to help) but here are a few:
Salvation Army
Loving Grace Ministry
St Luke Productions-Drama ministry
About four churches I know of who do good work in the community
Local food banks.
Homeless Veterans group in NJ
But yes, I'd also help my family and some people here I know who seem to be struggling
But it's sort of a moot point because i don't expect to win and if i do I hope it's 1 million dollars of so, not that obscene amount.

It's a good thing they're around, otherwise you might have to deal with people in poverty yourself. Just imagine how distasteful that would be instead of just writing a check.
Charities are an industry that thrive on perpetual poverty. They seek to install system to deal with making the poor's lives marginally better, but never seeking to solve the root problems.
That's what liberals do.
Spend money, whine that there isn't more, keep the problem going and make sure the recipients rely on them for the rest of their lives.
