Is Tesla overvalued? Probably.
Does Tesla receive unwarranted hype? Probably.

A lot of media fawns over everything he says. A lot of media reflects your comment. People seem to have strong feelings one way or the other.

When I saw the 500,000 figure, I didn’t believe it. I immediately chalked it up to being a goal that…

I’m confident you’re trolling, because many are actually plentiful.

I disagree.

Not that he might be condescending or patronizing, but that he’s “hurting the cause.” I grew up in a very “christian conservative right-wing” part of the country — the type that tends to believe politicians and entertainers over science. Years ago, I may have agreed that it won’t help the cause, but I’ve…

Been there with my S2000 ;)

Tesla is making boats now.

Emirates and Qatar have both been great for me. I honestly haven’t had a bad experience airline, but generally the planes are nicer, staff are kinder, and the experience is overall better on the two. I guess oil money and tourism/hospitality/excess being a priority helps.

Someone turn this into a VR experience, please.

We have very different views of North Korean technology, apparently. We also have different views of US “cutting corners” when it comes to defense. My view of NK tech is based on documentaries, news, video, and their lack of internet connectivity or the ability to buy a majority of western technology. My view of US…

I just can’t take you seriously. The same people that are concerned with the citizens of Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and North Korea -- don’t want to help their own citizens that are starving or impoverished -- but all lives matter -- except the Muslims because they could be dangerous -- but we should liberate them…

Dig back.

You will see that for decades, we’ve been saying NK is “really close” to building a nuclear ICBM. At some point, it might be true, but after so long of hearing how close they are, it’s hard to believe it’ll be any time soon when they can’t even reach Japan yet.

The leader is just looking tough for his…

If you truly believe NK is a threat, I think you’re the one that’s fooled. They’ve been a supposed threat for how long? Can they even hit Japan yet? Nope. Are they getting closer? Sure. So we should get involved even though they’re still very far from having the technological ability to hit the US? Is it to protect…

There is no dry country. Can verify that Saudi, Afghanistan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and UAE all have alcohol. USA also has inhalable plants.

No, no, I know the purpose of it. I have a $15,000 big yellow Fluke thermal imaging camera thingamajig at my office.

I’m saying, the location of the “hot” spot seemed odd. The heat was closer to the outside than the middle, but that’s likely because of the turn. The hot spot was semi-stationary instead of the usual…

Instead of thinking it as “adding” power, think of the lower levels “subtracting” power.

Likely, if this is true, it was designed for 1023 horsepower but runs in a neutered state for the lower two levels.

That’s what I thought it was, but the location seemed strange. I guess the hotspot is where he applied the brakes and slid.

I make a lot of money, but I’ve still never paid a shop for repairs or even basic oil changes. I didn’t know a thing about cars until my first car blew a headgasket when I was only making $5.15 an hour. With repair estimates at $800+, I spent maybe $100-200 on parts and did it myself. Since then, I prefer to fix…

Dust storms aren’t daily occurrences. Not even weekly. The people in command are smart enough to not completely depend on a laser weapon in an area where they may be useless. When it’s an option, it’s a cheaper option that they’ll use. When it’s not, they can use a patriot missile. Different weapons for different…

My fleet:

- 2013 CRV EX - Family car. Gets groceries.
- 2002 Civic LX - Beater/commuter. Cheap, reliable, don’t care about dents and dings.
- 1990 CRX Si - Built/boosted go-cart toy/project car.
- 2007 S2000 - Bone-stock weekend fun car.
- 2012 CBR250R - Not quite “upright,” but more comfortable than a supersport. Amazing…

My city, Huntsville AL, was announced to be receiving Google fiber.

Comcast, the incumbent provider, complained that Google Fiber in Huntsville would negatively impact competition. I forget their reasoning. It was absurd, whatever it was, because adding competition does not hurt competition.

Since the announcement,…
