Assuming this transcript I found is correct, no one says it on-screen until Luke identifies himself to Leia in her prison cell.  So at least he’s aware of his own name. 

How were you able to post this from 1972?

It’s not NIMBYism, it’s not protection of his existing business - it’s extorsion, pure and simple. The Vineyard Wind project is far enough along that it’s almost certain to get built, regardless of this lawsuit or any other factor. The owners of this projects are out currently out seeking $2B in financing for this

Three years into Tesla ownership and the only maintenance I’ve had is refilling wiper fluid and rotating the tires.  I hope you’re not repeating the bad experience of someone else as a lazy joke!  Wouldn’t what that, would we?

If a spot or garage is tight in general, I will pull in, or back in, as appropriate, keeping my passenger side pretty door close to another vehicles’ passenger side - so close as to generally prevent access from this side (but more than like, 3 inches). This will preserve maximum driver side door space for all parties

It doesn’t “damage” it, but it’s not good for the long term health of the battery to do it routinely.  I charge mine to 75% and it’s never an issue.  I do 100% for road trips a couple times a year, with no issues.  Just like you wouldn’t floor your gas pedal at every light just because the car can go 0-60 in 4

The currently technology sucks. It’s fine for essentially adaptive cruise control, but I’d never trust it to actually drive itself. Hell I’ve never even used Smart Summon in an empty parking lot. Source: Model 3 owner.

This was my first thought - this guy’s got to have $950,000 (roughly the annual write off) in taxable income for the write off to be worth it. Furthermore you could pull similar tax shenanigans by buying the thing and financing it - write off the the interest expense and depreciation, then taking a capital loss when

NEP is an affiliate of NEE - NEE has a major ownership stake and effectively controls NEP, even though NEP is a separate publicly traded company.  The nuances and reasons behind this go beyond the scope of this comments section. 

when you had it all strapped down did you at least give it a good shake and say “that’s not going anywhere”?

There’s just not any more information either way, the story so far hasn’t gone any further.

Let’s wait and see. Our venal instincts here may not be correct. 

Eh - all else equal it’s better to be in the S&P 500. Being in those index funds increases your stock’s overall liquidity, which is important for institutional investors.  In the grand scheme though, especially for sometime still as large as HOG, it’s pretty immaterial. 

Don’t....don’t call it husband/wife

Cool man glad it works for you. I’ve been in them and they’re nice. It’s interesting how people have different needs for transportation and how the market has come up with different solutions for the various needs.  

Looks like this isn’t the right car for you, then. I live in an urban area with small garages and parking spots and crowded streets.  I have 2 small children, and so need a vehicle with a low step in height.  An F-150 (even a quad cab) just won’t work for me.  Frankly I’m not even sure why they make them. 

ain’t nothing more expensive than a cheap European car

Would be better for the environment!

Can’t speak for other cities but here in Minneapolis, the roads they’ve shut down should generally already be closed to cars.  It’s routes next to parks/scenic areas, not major thoroughfares.  

That space shuttle was still on display in my childhood bedroom until I (birthdate in early 80s) finally returned home with children old enough to destroy it.
