Elon Musk loves responding to posts on X with heart emojis. He’s sent dozens this year alone, often in response to people praising his cars or directly to his mother’s posts. But this week, Musk sent a heart emoji to Tommy Robinson, the far-right Islamophobic activist from the United Kingdom. Though Musk largely ignored UK…
Here it comes. Up to two thirds of the US is facing down the threat of serious snow, cold, and ice this weekend, with the potential to snarl roads (and the businesses that depend on them) from Texas up to New York City. At this point, grocery stores, logistics experts, warehouse operators, and trucking companies…

The most reliable vehicle is highlighted, with other highly rated models listed beneath it in order of their reliability ratings.

If you’re using a low-grade fuel in a car that requires a higher grade, such as 91 octane or a premium fuel, you’re doing yourself a disservice, and you could be causing damage to your car’s engine, because that fuel is detonating too early in the cylinder. So is there ever a situation where you…

We both are side sleepers for the most part, but often, I revert to being a stomach sleeper sometime in the night. Both of these sleeping positions require more…
Zoë Schiffer: I think also it’s a good moment to bring in the IP angle. You might be asking yourself, why did ClawdBot change its very cute name to MoltBot? And that’s a great question.
