A couple of things, the author is kind of correct, if you have any kind of footprint in California, business or personal, the entire thing is being taxed by the state. Unless they move the entire enterprise, it doesn’t mean much. Musk himself has more of an impetus to get out because the state taxes capital gains and…

Exactly.  All the people moving from California to Texas are going to want their Texas exactly like their California. 

Honestly I’m fine with all these tech companies moving to Texas, it’s what has been shifting the state blue over the last 20 years. If enough blue gets injected to flip it then there is literally no path to the presidency for conservatives which is a win in my book.

I bet if they changed the “Beat Bobby Flay” show to “Beat Bobby Flay with a Tire Iron” they would have gotten double the ratings.

Not going to lie, the comments section makes me happy. I have been a cyclist for 15 years and a car nut far longer, and I distinctly remember when the Jalopnik comments section was vehemently anti-cyclist to the point of some who advocated for what this asshole did.

I…

I see Facebook going down permanently as an absolute win for the entire world. I wish this wasn’t just temporary. Its a terrible steward of people’s data and shops that data to the highest bidder, allowing the spread of deadly misinformation.

Facebook is evil.

I deleted Facebook 5 years ago and have not looked back. Trust me, life is better without it. If you must play VR, just do it on Steam. 

not sure how productive QAnon followers are with or without access to their marching orders

The more I read about what Facebook knew the more it sounds like the tobacco industry and cancer.

It’s not that hard.  Just re-label cans of Monster

As long as they keep that shit out of my Fight Milk, then I’m fine. I need my daily crowtein.

Not only that, he puts it in Wolf Cola, too. 

If only they could close the border between the USA and Texas... Would solve many problems :)

I’ll put my bias on my sleeve and say that I am VERY interested in getting a Rivian once my A4 lease is up, but it’s not really a huge surprise that a company whose income comes from selling vehicles, is losing money when they’re not selling vehicles.
