Wow. Asshole around on the internet much? De gustibus non est disputandem, but you’re wrong.

Well, you showed your hand.

You are the only one. You must feel exceptional to have such amazing luck.

That’s an awfully simplistic hot take. For a car like this to exist, someone has to pay for the engineering, labor, facilities, etc. Plus, Singer needs to exist and thrive so that future Singers can be born. The price makes sense if you consider all the input costs. A buyer for a car like this is facilitating cars

Oh fuck, we totally forgot about cross traffic and how to stop properly at stop signs.

I look forward to the spin. Such idiocy.

Yes. Definitely Yes. I don’t think I’ve ever owned a vehicle that was a Consumer Reports top pick. I’ve owned a 2 Lotuses (Lotii?) and an Alfa Romeo for god’s sake. I will always pick the objectively worse but more interesting vehicle.

While I appreciate what you are trying to do, and enjoy it. I would still choose a 4Runner, Tacoma, Cherokee, FJ, Wrangler, Landcruiser, Tundra, F150, Bronco, LX, GX, Vehicross, Pathfinder, Montero, etc, etc, etc, etc, etc over a mini-van. It takes some effort to find any bit of Jalop in that thing.

The “It’s not about you” comment is intellectually lazy. Her comment was specifically about him, so yes he has the right to respond and correct the record. We are so quick to judge and presume guilt.

That’s selection bias. So for a few hours each day, some of the buses are fully utilized. For shits and giggles I did a tally on the way to work today. I counted 32 buses. Of those 2 were packed (1 heading south on Battery near Market and one heading north on Kearny), 2 were about 20-30% full, and the rest were almost

Quit trying to make buses happen. I tried to find utilization rates (total seat- miles available / total seat-miles used) for buses to see what they were. Suprise surprise, that data isn’t available. I suspect it is absolutely terrible, like <1-2%. Here in SF, even during rush hour, poor coordination often leads to

I switched to barefoot shoes while in PT from a marathon-training running injury 10 years ago, so I very slowly eased into it. Even then, I strained my calves on an early run. I’d say it took 9 months to be fully adjusted. Now, my feet are wider, my calves are bigger, and I’ve run up to 15 miles with barefoot shoes.

We fucking love our electric cars in Cali. No joke. I look out my front door, and every neighbor on my street (except me :( ) has an electric car. The Fiat 500e is especially popular. They were giving those things away to hit whatever crazy internal electric quota Fiat was trying to hit. I’m talking $80/mo lease

I think it’s a combination of sadly, letting go of your dreams to the relentless charge of reality, as well as becoming finer tuned to what you actually enjoy. I could afford a supercar now. My 22-year old self would already be rolling a 458 if I had the same bankroll back then, but as I got older, life got more

I participated in the Illegal drags in Dallas back in the early 90's (93-95ish). I haven’t kept up with where the scene is now, but It’s gone through peaks and valleys. Valleys are usually brought on by an accident and a subsequent crackdown. At the peaks I saw, we had thousands of people out, tubbed cars showing up

Yes we do! We just want them to have Plasma Gravitron Diffuser Thrusters, not just fucking fan blades like overgrown drones.

No. That’s why I just don’t understand the valuations. I drove a lot of these back in the day. I had an E36, Integra Type R, and 300ZX TT during the mid to late 90's and considered buying a Supra several times. Compared to even those 3 cars it was much more of a grand tourer vs a sports car. It felt heavy and more at

Let’s be clear that this is not a rich street in SF. This isn’t even the “nice” area of SF. This is an average hood in SF. I’m not sure if this changes all the “I hate rich people” rhetoric, but I thought I’d point it out. These people are just trying to live their lives.

Sounds great. Then they can hire the thousands of engineers needed to build a competitive tech platform, and .... oh you thought that it’s just an app you could code from your mom’s basement. Nope.

Where did the robot touch you?
