I vote for #3, simply because you managed to mostly rhyme fluorescent, regardless of the fact that most modern passenger lighting is probably LED-based. Awesome work on your part Carrer. :-)

“There’s a THING in the ceiLING!”

Forget exterminators, hire the guys who deal with Boeing’s whistleblowers to take it out.

Is that a rat? Gnaw, it couldn’t be.

“It wasn’t me!  It was the one armed software engineer!”

“The last thing I would do is trust a computer program,” Elon Musk at a town hall hosted at a high school outside Philadelphia

To be fair, I know that I should stop all my bad habits too, but its not so easy as just...stopping.  This isn’t a thing they do, its who they are.  Not an excuse, just saying that in order for people to make changes, they need a compelling reason.  I don’t think the nebulous threat of being first against the wall is…

Dear ultra-rich: You are private citizens and subject to the same regulations as all private citizens, which means that if you use US airspace, its public information. Please learn to deal with that.

Safety is tough, not just because you have to setup a culture around it (and be serious about it, which seems to be where Tesla strayed) but there’s a lot of learned lessons. You can have walk-throughs over and over again, but it takes years to identify every issue, so every new manufacturing plant is going to have…

Yikes!

Oh, great, so Rivian is the new Tesla. All warts, no lotion.

Yep.  Also, he clearly has no clue how tariffs work.  Not that he cares.  His tariff plan, if actually enacted, would be catastrophic, but it doesn’t even crack the top 20 of terrible things coming with another Trump presidency.

I owned a 2007 Focus, the lifetime air filter was a stupid idea. There is a fairly cheap and easy fix using most of the original air intake, MAF sensor and a cone air filter. It took me maybe 30-45 minutes and I was able to get rid of most of the original air filter & associated plastic pieces. You can look it up on…

“The power of the stupid masses in the palm of my hand”

Truth Social first

Am I the only person who remembers the armed military guys outside the airport post 9-11 who would not let your car sit for more than like a minute before they started getting shouty and aggressive?

Most of this sounds more like “sports car as a cruiser” problems than “EV as a cruiser” problems.

Actually, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a reworked Model 2 given the size of the vehicle and Elon’s tendency to suddenly shift company priorities. It just doesn’t feel like a vehicle designed to replace a taxi/uber.

1st Gear: This is all an attempt by Musk to have Tesla valued as a tech company rather than a car company. Unfortunately for him, investors are getting a bit tired of waiting on autonomy. This was his big chance to show his plans on how to do that, and instead we got more vague plans and two new vehicles! (Oddly…
