This happened 12 months ago with the Model 3 when Q3 2023, people said there was a slow down. Than we found out Tesla was using all the parts in inventory to build as many Model 3s as they could, so they had inventory to take the production lines off and upgrade them for the new “Highland” Model 3 which came out Jan

Nailed it.

I’ve said before that Tesla’s biggest advantage was the Supercharger network, but since that’s been opened up to anyone, people who want an EV are no longer funneled to Tesla.

Honestly I don’t think he trashed his own reputation, he never really had a good one.

Scrooge McDuck never messed up his companies.  Elon doesn’t even have the right to sniff Scrooge’s spats.

Let’s be clear, he had nothing to do with actually making the rockets or their ability to land other than paying the people who did the actual work.

Elon absolutely amazes me for how he’s trashed his own reputation. He’s gone from being Tony Stark: “Yes, I can make rockets simultaneously land on their tails.”

I mean Hitler was a monster, full stop, but I mean Autobahn, would likely not exist if not for Hitler, Volkswagen also likely wouldn’t exist as it does now. In no way defending Hitler, he is indefensible, but even a monster can have one or 2 not horrific ideas. And for a much take, Musk the douche canoe that he is,

“Hitler was, you know, a demon on steroids, but he had some pretty good one-liners.”

I guess he was the White Power Ranger all along, huh.

So uhhh... which is it? Did ChatGPT glitch out or something? The sub-head and then the opening line. Literally read back-to-back. Sloppy.

Bummer to read you need to play the demo to get some of the bonuses. I was intentionally avoiding the demo entirely to not spoil anything from the full game at all and go into it fresh.. But if I don’t play the demo first, I miss out on items?

Remember when buying games was simple?

Also the 27th anniversary of me saying “Hot stuff coming through” every time I have to get around anyone. A timeless joke never gets old, right?

I still say “Hot stuff, comin’ through!” And “Zzzzzap!” From time to time.

Yeah, that’s what it seems to be.  My partner is at 158 hours and still hasn’t finished.  I’m over time sink games that just recycle to same gameplay loop for 100+ hours without enough meat to make it worth it.

They seem to be throwing things at the wall in desperation. I haven’t played since the Overwatch 2 non-upgrade, but even at the best of times it was almost impossible to make the game both casual and competitive (especially with aspirations for an esport) at once. The center cannot hold.

You wouldn’t know it’s not a bajillion dollar AAA titles in the moment to moment gameplay. The attention to fine detail, from weapons ejection unique shell casings with their own physics and collision to the bugs and bots limping and moving differently when you destroy various limbs is bonkers.

Thankfully, Disney canceled that game while my child was still a toddler. If they had stuck with it, I’d be a much poorer geek today.

Y’all know what happens when Disney dips it’s hands into games.
