Hacks can happen to anyone. Better lessons to learn is "don't enable or install what you don't need" and "keep machines you don't trust off your local network"

Because it's a mediocre car that's priced well put of its league.
I remember when they were first talking about this thing and I assumed it was going to be a cheaper EV to replace the C-HR, and it seemed like it, given the mediocre specs.
When it came out that this is supposed to be competition for the EV6. Ioniq 5 and Mach-e I actually gasped.
As opposed to the Republican's Final Solution?
Their the American Sturmabteilung
These drove like crap off the lot, but in their defense they'd keep driving like crap a million miles later.
The Hondamatic five-speed transmission really tanked this van's desirability. It made Chrysler look good by comparison
It's a great vehicle otherwise, but there was a period around the turn of the millennium where any V6+5AT Honda or Acura product was a serious dice-roll.
“If everyone is covered in mud, it makes it less obvious that you’re covered in shit.”
This is Liz and her cohort trying to “both sides!!” away the behaviour they incited.
It’s crab-bucket PR: if they can get enough of the media saying how bad the left is, it makes the right-wing pogroms less horrifying.
Trump did the same thing post-Charlottesville, conflating BLM and Antifa with the rich-setting, “Jews will not replace us” chanting, protestor-merdering neo-nazis who supported him.
The Toyota Previa is still cooler.
Ah the GM U-Body. It's good looking trash, but it's still trash.
Based on the then-problematic W-Body, it didn't drive well, lacked a fourth door, had front suspension that got misaligned if you went over a speedbump and ate head gaskets for breakfast, which was a challenge because almost every issue with the powertrain or accessory belt stuff, and there were lots, was an engine-out repair job.
It made the Astro look good, which was not easy. Only the Toyota Van (the HiAce and Previa) were more challenging, and at least they were reliable.
The Caravan, exploding transmission and all, was a better car.
Interestingly, this same chassis got a lot less sexy as the years went on. GM butched it up for the SUV craze with the Montana/Uplander, and the shorty version was the basis for the Aztek.
Because Google was so focused and strategic before the pandemic rollseyes.
The issue is Google’s broken governance and incentive system, which gives product owners and executives incentives for new products and actively disincentivizes maintaining and improving existing products...and that was a thing from well before the pandemic hit.
It's why Google launched three pay systems and had five messaging systems at the same time.
And, finally, this is all because of the strategy set by senior leaders.
Obligatory NYT headline: "Alcohol poisoning used to be a time honoured pasttime in this small town, but Millennial woke mob took it all away."
