I suppose it depends on context, but someone who was born in PR, but lives in NYC, is a Puerto Rican. Someone born in NYC to a Puerto Rican family is a New Yorican. Both people are ethnically Puerto Rican, but only one is from Puerto Rico.
Gringo and yankee are both fine. However, it's most correct to refer to people from the USA by their birth state.
Parts of it. To be fair, glue is pretty common in automotive and aerospace applications. When it's used properly, it's very strong and reliable … when it's used properly.
Yes. I mean, there's someone for everyone. She just needs to put herself out there. Getting on the apps is a start, but it's important to just be social with people doing activities she enjoys. She needs to keep in mind that dating is supposed to be fun.
That part of the problem seems avoidable. There's no need for an instance to automatically mirror content from other instances.
Definitely not good for anyone running a website hosting users' content. However, I wonder if the Fediverse offers some resilience to this threat, since everyone can have their own server.
Is this happening?
If you take a lot of long distance trips that it probably makes most sense to just keep a single ICE car. If you only take long trips occasionally then just rent one. Hopefully, buses and trains are also on option for you.
If you've got one of those BEVs capable of hundreds of miles of range, but you're only driving tens of miles everyday, you're not any better than an F150 owner with a clean bed.
Which buses are those?
My position is that the development of long range BEVs (and all the externalities associated with manufacturing and disposing of these batteries) has been an incredible detour. We already had the technology for fuel cell EVs with as much range as ICE vehicles. Meanwhile, short range BEVs are great because they solve the problem of refueling and avoid the problem of recharging, since you can do it while you sleep work. Long range BEVs just trade refueling for "fast" recharging, which is actually slower and more inconvenient than refueling. Where we really need innovation and development is in mass, public transit.
Take a bus or a train. Public transit is of course the real solution. Transitioning from ICE personal vehicles to personal BEVs doesn't really solve much and arguably creates more problems.
I just think installing these BEV charging stations everywhere is a bad idea in the first place.

Submitting this one again in black and white. Sometimes I have trouble deciding if I prefer a given photo in color or not.

All of these pickups should be taken off the road. Tesla makes the news, but I'm not sure they are the worst offender in terms of the threat they pose to other motorists and pedestrians.
