Minor She-Hulk spoilers:

Rhodey was likely abducted immediately after Captain America: Civil War. All of the freed subjects were in whatever they were wearing when they were taken, and he was in a hospital gown. It would be odd for them to put him in a hospital gown as a random event, and the only time we’ve seen him in the hospital was after…

Nothing will fix your suspicion that the government is run by the Illuminati like actually working for the government. Everyone that works in any super-secret agency / the military / politics / legal fields is just as normal as everyone else - they complain about traffic, pull on doors that clearly say “push,” and…

I’m not a physicist, and I don’t know if you are. Due to the lack of attention to detail in your post, I’m inclined to believe that you are not - in which case, you’re not in a position to say positively what the laws of physics will or will not allow. Specifically, the story said that the owner of the car - not the dr…

First, I feel honored.

Just noticed this. Here you go:

My kinja account was already logged in because I spend a lot of time over on io9.

Unlike many people in this comment thread, I’m willing to admit when I don’t know something. And I didn’t know much about how ad analytics work besides counting the number of clicks per page, so thank you for this information.

And I know people who don’t step on cracks out of fear of seriously injuring their mothers. People avoid doing things for all sorts of stupid reasons.

I think you should reread my post. “Don’t disagree” = “agree.” It’s a classic double negative that they taught us about in 7th grade English.

I’ll stop when I want to. Or when people like Elizabeth stop writing sensationalist articles with a tenuous grasp on facts. Whichever comes first.

Mundane is fine. Sensationalist reporting without all the facts is where I have an issue.

Tesla’s AP safety nets are what indicate that this story is BS. AP is limited to 5 mph over the posted speed limit on residential streets. As another poster noted, this street is about 1/16th of a mile long with a cul-de-sac on one end and a T-intersection stop sign at the other in a very wealthy neighborhood. Logic…

You and everyone else (including the first responders) know enough about autopilot to think you know how it works without actually knowing how it works. On residential streets, AP is restricted to 5 mph over the posted speed limit. There is no way around this. First responders see no one in the driver’s seat and…

I don’t disagree that a four hour battery fire is dangerous. And while it is worthwhile to address this issue for all EVs, that is not the main point of this story based on the amount of attention paid to it. The main point is “look how dangerous Teslas are.” There are a few issues with your second point.

Tesla is at fault as much as any other manufacturer is at fault for people using their products in stupid ways. Do you blame Ford when Mustangs kill people while doing donuts at Cars and Coffee?

I live a mile away from that street. I am not driving there just to prove to a stranger on the internet that I live close enough to know the roads unless you’re paying me to do it.

Semantics. Jalopnik targets readers from around the country with its articles, just like you target your friends and family with your FB posts. That’s what makes it “national.”

I actually got re-routed here from Flipboard, without realizing it was a Jalopnik story. But once I was here, they already had the click. So I might as well call their bullshit for what it is.
