This “researcher” had an agenda, which she actually explains. Then she admits that she left out the demographic that in large part is actually part of modifying their exhaust. “CBC News also interviewed Bailey Trap, a 38-year-old woman who started a performance shop that modifies muscle cars, hot rods, and pickup…

Sorry, but the SD4 is a stupid test.
Rate your agreement with each statement using a 5-point scale:

So what we have here is a social scientist, someone we would expect to understand concepts like “sample size” and “sampling bias”, who decided to do a study on a subject that she has a personal vendetta against where the outcome just happens to support her narrative? And this work has passed peer review and been…

I think this says more about business majors than it does about car enthusiasts. 

Yeah, sure, stopping them at the door is a much better option. It’s a shame we don’t have any way to communicate to all the workers being fired. We will have to wait for musk to invent some sort of electronic mail. Let’s call it “Hypermail”. I’m sure you and others will continue to fellate the fucker.

You forgot “utterly incompetent in everything he does”.

He can’t even fire people with even the vaguest sense of competence. Just constant chaos, the hallmark of a drug-addled fascist lunatic who doesn’t consider other people to be actual human beings.

Whenever you think Musk has done something shitty, he will find a way to make his shitty decisions even more shitty. Fucking low-life.

Came here to say this. With a third of her income spent on a car, her other likely large expense is housing. She’s living with her parents for free? Well that expense is gone. After housing and car payment everything else is minor, mostly discretionary and adjustable.  Delete Uber Eats and learn to cook.

I think he is just testing to see how much nonsense his stans will be willing to swallow. So far, they’re like geese being readied for foie gras.

Okay, I made the Dukes of Hazzard jokes, now I gotta ask in seriousness, what is the bad news for Elon that he is trying to cover with this latest idiocy? Or stock price shenanigans, as the case may be?

Musk just can’t help himself. He spews complete bullshit at every opportunity.

Every car can serve briefly as a plane. 

Ford also hopes that this time it will get the initial build quality for a new model launch right…

Did they remember the price has to be small too?

Don’t forget that cloud computing was the same line trotted out, and promptly debunked, during the SimCity debacle shortly before.

I don't game on my phone at all. I browse the net and make phone calls/send messages. Which is waaaay different than any always online console ever will be.

I’m not saying the other companies aren’t looking heavily into sorts of changes that would be largely unfriendly to consumers, and are similarly guilty, but MS’s diligence in those aspects has had its drawbacks.

And let’s not forget that the mandatory Kinect, coupled with a mandatory always-on internet, was a major privacy issue.

It’s such a bizarre take when one of the more focused upon media features looked more backwards than forwards. Cable TV integration? HDMI pass through? I know it was cooked up prior to 2013 but even back then the writing was on the wall that streaming was going to become more and more prominent.
