This is a Tesla. Have you seen how the charger works? When the charger approaches the socket on the car, fields of cosmic energy coalesce (think when Thanos placed the Infinity Stones in the gauntlet) and guide it into position. Sometimes it takes the form of thin tendrils of lightning. Mortals cannot but fall to dust

I jumped to the quote and missed the first part.  And, as a nerd, I immediately started wondering what CPU she was getting for $1,000.  That’s almost Ryzen 3955WX territory.

I don’t follow the “wealthiest people in <geography X>“ lists, but I’d think he’d at least have to beat out Michael Jordan and Oprah Winfrey to be a contender.

Is it red? I had a red one around here somewhere, so it might be mine.

“I paid sales tax on my previous car, so why shouldn’t I take this one for free?”

Very few eyewitnesses? Or very few surviving eyewitnesses?

My wife asks me something.  My reply starts with “I’m glad you asked!”  She instantly shuts down.  And I don’t even do that on purpose.

Teslastan--  An Eastern bloc country with technology vastly beyond that of the rest of the world, like Wakanda, but likely to fall apart at a moment’s notice, unlike Wakanda.

I can only do this if the Macho Man version has a Nacho trim level with nacho cheese color scheme and an on-board nacho cheese dispenser.  I want a Nacho Macho Man Jeep.

My motorcycle has pedals, and I’m the only motor, so pardon my ignorance. What do motorcyclists use to pump up the tires while out in the wild? I carry a couple of CO2 cartridges, and sometimes a hand pump, but that can’t be a reasonable way to fill that volume of tire.

It’s true, you know, that they are not bound by time. I drove a Rolls to work in 1981. By the time I got there 40 years had passed, my entire family was dead, I looked exactly the same, and all of my techinical skills were hopelessly out of date and I was unemployable. Screw you, Rolls Royce.

I don’t understand “cheaters” in this context.  What is that?

Nice!  I just looked that up.  Fun video.

It seems to do better than just a standard 110V outlet:

My family has a decent number of long trips with long stretches in the American Southwest. We usually have a couple of bikes slung onto the back of our current ride, so a tow hitch would be great even though we never tow. It wouldn’t be unusual to have a couple hundred miles between stops, but we’re not the sort to be

So let’s cross-post to Gizmodo and see if the same people that were complaining about scalping on the PS5 feel the same about this.

Jalopnik is not your personal erotica site.

Uggh. Is this really that hard? When I was young and stupid, I used to say “Get a rope!” in response to all sorts of things, just as a way of expressing comic displeasure. You know, a sort of “ha-ha” over-reaction to something that wasn’t really that much of a problem. I said it to everyone, which in that area and

Also what came to my mind.  But you, sir/ma’am, were faster, so here, have your star.

Holy crap, had to change my underwear just watching that...
