100% agree! The whole return to work thing is horrible for a number of reasons. Imagine letting people relocate to rural areas and bringing the capital with them to revitalize those areas, while also reducing emissions, and the strain on the housing market. 

Agreed, this seems like a reactionary hot-take just to be edgy. I have a fair number of friends rocking plug in hybrids and full EVs, and the consensus is the cost per mile is much lower on the plug in’s than the full EVs. Additionally, the amount of time they’re running on plug in power for the PHEVs is quite high.…

^this. I saw ‘averaging 65' and my jaw dropped. That’s a lot of mass to be moving in those conditions at those speeds. It’s incredible.

That sounds awesome!

CEO’s wind up being the money facing figure. CTO/CPO’s wind up as the internal stop gap between product/dev/IT/and sometimes tech services, and the CRO. HR can fuck right off with their political bullshit. Presidents wear no clothes and are the speaking circuit figures who should only ride in Boeings. COO’s are often…

I have worked for a number of tech companies, and only in one did the CEO have an actual understanding of what was going on. He was a product guy though and wanted to stay apprised of what was going on, as we were making rather big changes. Having said that, the President was a sociopath sales guy who had no idea what…

I have a hard time not rolling down my window and yelling “Nazi sympathizers” at every supercharger I drive past.

If he’s making money off of illegal activities, this seems ripe for civil asset seizure. The city should be able to subpoena his income statements from the various platforms he’s posting on.   Then, if the figures don’t add up to the $750k, throw a forensic accountant on his ass and find the real source. 

There is definitely a reason why carrier fleets still exist!

Find a shallow sand bar, beach it, then have it declared a US protectorate.....Profit!

Totally! Reading through the application requirements was a lesson in bureaucracy. They reserved the right to put it back in service if you didn’t just outright scrap it. You had to be a non-profit, and have a slip or mooring already agreed to.

Our first plan had been to park it off the LA coast, just into…

Back when the US was trying to give away the JFK aircraft carrier, my friends and I were trying to come up with some justifiable reason to apply for ownership. We ran the numbers to understand what fuel consumption was like, since it was one of the last non-nuclear super carriers, and it was in the barrels of diesel pe…

I was making a sarcastic comment on political power giving in to Irish destructive behavior, ie the Good Friday Agreement.

Yeah, I’d be curious if they paid taxes on their sales.

Violence neve solves....er....wait. 

“We don’t make the M1, we make it better.” Gotta love a company that somehow never developed anything of their own but was an 80s powerhouse. 

This is how Fiat leaves the US again. An inability, or intentional decision, to look at the existing market and price accordingly. In a year, Fiat will say, “Well, we tried, but you didn’t want to buy them.” Which, is both true, and bullshit. 

Nor is it the BASF M1

Remember when Jalopnik had quality articles and was one of the best auto related sites in the world? Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Can we finally just say that full self drive doesn’t work?
