Aren’t all these cars supposed to be operating as fully autonomous taxis before the end of the year?

Every 3rd article on Jalopnik these days is about Jeep, it’s getting both boring and suspicious.

Standard DRS system already has the cutoff when the brakes are applied.

The more I see of this car the more I just see how it’s a copy of existing mid-engined supercars, rather than a Corvette.

This. The foundations of “the church” are indivisible from bigotry and discrimination, yet is immune to criticism, sheltered by an unwritten code that the black community and “the church” are one and the same. 

I think you’re all reading far too much into it. Each of them is a reference to a person or company who “changed the world” or “disrupted the current paradigm”, basically invented or perfected a “thing” that would go on to become a ubiquitous standard of some kind.

If I wanted to play Tetris from the original Gameboy, what system would I be best to get? I am completely unaware of all the different handheld models, and I also don’t want any special music or Mario versions of Tetris or anything, I just want good old classic Tetris. Anyone got any recommendations?

In New Zealand we drive barefoot a lot, especially over summer. Partly because it’s safer than driving in jandals (flip-flops to you lot), and partly because we just wear bare feet a lot. I’ve gone entire summers without ever wearing shoes, including shopping and going to the pub.

Although if you add up the millions of POS points around the world that upgraded over a decade ago, all of whom had to deal with the same issues and problems, incurring the same costs etc, it doesn’t excuse the fact that the US decided that the customer losses weren’t worth the cost to fix. 

Are being US specific, or worldwide? I think this list is pretty bad overall, especially if it’s the most important cars worldwide in the last 15 years.

Titan attacks in 2142 were awesome fun

How detailed is it? If it’s a summary or high level overview of all these topics it’s probably not for me, but if it goes in-depth, particularly on the challenges I could be all in

This frees up money, time and brain space for use on enthusiast vehicles tho. I’d happily get in an electric pod to go to and from work in comfort/ease if on weekends I can get to the track or a long road trip in a fun car. 

Does no one in the audience know someone who works at GM who’d find out who designed this so we could ask them wtf? I’m fascinated by what the thought/design processes that lead to this must have been

“That’s a huge communal farm”

Comparatively speaking (I’m outside the US) - In terms of US muscle cars they’ve gotten better over the years (the last 2 in particular have been as good as most stuff worldwide in general) but they’re not exactly what I think of when the words “sports car” are used.

Does purchasing this automatically add you to the sex offenders register or do you have to already be on it to be eligible to buy it?

Is it really a sports car though? Given how poorly they handle I’ve always thought of Corvettes as more of a GT type (traffic light races as well of course)

Haven’t we just had the “heavy stuff makes EVs suck” conversation? The weight of this kind of thing alone is going to make it compromised beyond acceptable levels on current battery tech, Shirley?
