A judge will have to approve whatever they do, but I’d be shocked if they don’t convert to Chapter 7 given Fisker’s lack of assets, intellectual property, customers, everything.

$20k for 50k miles doesn’t seem like a good bargain to me.

Surprised the bankruptcy isn’t under Chapter 7. I’ll be stunned if they can find creditors willing to lend the Fiskers the amount of money they need. I liked the Ocean (on paper) enough to reserve one with a deposit and given the reported awful accounting I’m counting my blessing that I did not end up buying one and…

HF is the scariest shit I’ve ever been around. Post-doc I went to grad school with said they kept a bone saw in their lab near the HF. If enough spilled on your hand, for example, it travels up the bone, releasing Ca2+, and you’re dead without quick intervention. Bone saw would stop it, but in a terribly horrifying…

Simple, count the number of letters on the trunk.

“500 times more toxic than diesel exhaust and has no known safe level of exposure.” It is also released at 1 millionth the rate, so the net population effect is microscopic.

That’s fine, I use Firefox anyway.

Yeah, they were only partly concrete.

Oh my lord, he reacted to an entirely, 100% deserved negative review by cold-calling you and then *threatening* you? Definitely tops anything I’ve ever experienced (which mostly can be summarized as run-of-the-mill sexism; most service departments have treated me like a normal person, but some of act like because I…

Here’s the novel about my dealer service nightmare.

Sales manager admitting on video that their cars have shitty panel gap issues.

And yet, American at least has done this as well, with little fanfare. I was on an unscheduled A330 flight from Philly to Boston after storms caused all sorts of cancellations and chaos. The plane was just sitting there for a later that day international flight, and they had a crew with enough duty time left, so they…

I was a teenager in the mid/late 90s, I remember. Taylor is very different than N’Sync, 98 degrees, Brittany, Christina Aguilera, etc. In 2000, N’Sync’s biggest tour (No Strings Attached) netted $70 million in 82 shows. They aren’t even anywhere near the top 10 numbers for biggest tours in that decade (Rolling Stones,…

Always a fan of Qantas, one of the better I’ve flown on. Not as good as Singapore Airlines, but, miles better than most. Not surprised they thought out of the box on this one. And, of course, got an A380's worth of good publicity in it.

I could agree about the 8 mile test drive for a rebuild - but the bigger concern is they test drove it knowing it was low on oil. A quart and a half might not be terrible, but it’s not good. Seems like that’s operating outside manufacturer specs which would make the entire rebuild suspect in my book. What else did…

I always thought the real loophole is that he makes more money from his social media than the city’s fines, or even the cost of his car. They take his car and crush it I’m sure he’ll just buy another one, so long as the algorithm supports his antics.

You would think by now his license and registration would be suspended.

Arrest him. Tow and crush his car. How fucking hard is that to figure out?

I wonder if pissed of neighbours will catch up first.

This is just theft, followed by sale of stolen goods.  The dealership owner ought to be sitting in a prison cell by now.
