Lay off 70% of the Tesla workforce then make owners pay for a blue checkmark.

Waiting for it to get funded then for Tesla to patch out the functionality they work on via an update.

Almost as often as Erin has a byline.

No worries! Their mention of brakes came out of left field and wasn’t really relevant to the rest of the story, which is what struck me as odd especially when it’s not the problem that tires are with EVs, and I can see why it’d be a confusing thread to pick up on.

Oh, you didn’t hear that the crankshaft pulled a milkshake duck last month?

Which is why that part of my comment was responding to the “harder... on brakes” part of the sentence I quoted, and then I went on to agree that tires are still a big issue.

Insurance Customer Affairs should at least be advocating for owners with push-button start vehicles. That they aren’t smells super, super fishy.

EVs are unlikely to add more brake dust since regen braking will take over the lion’s share of deceleration.

I was a Saturn loyalist, but. deep simmering rage

How can you talk about the Ion but ignore the quad coupe?

The Soul EV is very cross with you.

Oof. Yeah, that’s fair. Thanks for the reminder of how f’d up the human brain is sometimes.

I can’t fathom going out of your way to find a charging parking spot, and then not plugging in. I’m wondering if some of these “forgetful” parkers are just using it as a normal spot intentionally, either not charging at all, or coming out and unplugging when they’re done but then going back inside for more shopping or…

Oh, the article did say that, didn’t it v.v Sorry, got distracted with comments that also skipped that and assumed all 10,000 were from game dev.

Thank you, I was wondering what the hell the rest of the car looked like.

How many of the 10k are actually at Xbox or game studio positions? Microsoft covers a lot of ground. For all we know, they’re slimming down their Office 365 teams or something.

The stuff that TikTok gets jumpy about is wild. I follow someone who does a lot of woodcutting, and she got a woodcutting sword, and all of those videos got deleted because you can’t show a real sword on TikTok.

Players: “Why is the developer saying nothing!”

Yeah, 20 miles in Alabama is nothing. Boswash and LA are about the only places that would consider 20 miles to be far.

Ehhh, I can see it at a glance, but as someone who has a C64X and threw a badge from it on my regular computer monitor - so I see the Commodore logo nigh-daily - yeah they’re not all that similar at a glance. You’ll have more trouble with Wegmans and Walgreens.
