In recent years, cops have begun using the EVs’ large data troves to assist with investigations.

But unlike the old-school method of just dropping some quarters into the machine, there are a dozen slightly different ways to pay so you can finally go on with your day.

It’s been almost ten years since LCD video killed the plasma video star. The legacy Japanese electronics brand Panasonic is trying to remind U.S. consumers of a time when it still made televisions for the North American market. The company’s back now with two new OLED models and a mini-LED offering. At the top end, the Z95A OLED is kicking in Panasonic’s audio know-how, integrating a suite of side speakers and directional audio that sounds impressive enough in person; I wonder why the company doesn’t just outright say you don’t even need a soundbar.
