If your gut reaction to this is to get defensive (like many people in the twitter replies) then it might be time to start examining your personal bias. 

Hypothetically you are now more likely to die yourself for taking either hypothetical action you made up and causing the rest of the driving public to have to react to you not following traffic laws.  Drivers need to become more predictable when behind the wheel and autonomous vehicles deciding to blow a stop sign…

I wasn’t aware that rolling a stop sign was a life saving maneuver lol 

In a perfect FSD world there will be no stop lights, signs, nothing, just an incredible series of TERRIFYING yet orchestrated near misses...basically like driving in India :)

For those wondering, using the 3.11% rate and $1525 payment quoted, with a more reasonable term of 72 months, this person can afford to borrow $100,000.

I would honestly much prefer that to being confined in a car with a stranger, stuck in underground single-lane traffic (especially during a pandemic). I’m not even claustrophobic but those photos make me queasy.

It would have been decent if they had just built a subway train, or maybe these *Dinos not included...yet*

Everyone saw this coming. In fact, one of my favorite dry YouTube narrative makers, DoNotEat01 did a 40 minute min-doc in 2019 explaining exactly why The Loop would fail.

Yes, the majority of big tech’s “innovations” are old ideas done worse. 

Great gimmick, But did anyone really think taking a mass transit concept and converting it to vehicle traffic was really a solution to congestion issues? It just moves it underground. But I doubt that was it’s intention anyway. More marketing and the whims of a person that has a company and it’s investors money at…

The Loop – which runs underground from an area near the Convention Center’s West Hall to the South Hall, involves bringing people into Teslas at “stations.” They are then driven by a human – sorry folks, no self driving in the tunnel – through it to a drop-off point. 

Waiting for Teslastans to say. “The Tesla is so smart it knows that’s a fake child. That is why it didn’t stop!”

You mean to tell me that the TERF Wizard Lady who included a subplot in her books arguing that slavery is ok if the slaves are happy being slaves and whose only Asian and Irish characters are named “Cho Chang” and “Seamus Finnegan” respectively also had antisemitic stereotypes?/s

You’d think that...but I owned (among many other curious choices) a 1996 Impala SS, the last year, one of the last ones produced, and it had panel gaps that varied from feeler gauge to lose your keys in it (on a keychain!), missing body mounts, etc...don’t underestimate GMs desire to slap stuff together. (Full…

I’m sure the PR value they’ll get from this is far above what the car cost them.

Pretty much everything Crypto bros claim NFTs make possible in gaming we've had the technology to do for years. But there's plenty of reasons why it's either not done or not prolific and NFTs won't change those reasons.

Like, is it me, or are NFTs just another fucking pyramid scheme?

I’d wager the issue here is more about the ability for this family to go after the dealer’s employment practices liability insurance, where this would most likely be a slam dunk payout and a hit on policy premium. If this was a “freelance salesman”, whatever that it, the dealership can say they were 1 removed from the…

But he didn’t buy from the dealership, remember? He bought it privately from the literal conman that worked there. There’s not a universe where I trust a guy willing to sell his private car like that.

“Freelance salesman” as in “We don’t want to pay employment taxes, so we’re going to 1099 this guy even though he meets the definition of an employee?”
