Tesla is ahead though, and the ONLY car company investing in the necessary recharging infrastructure necessary for electric vehicles to succeed. That’s why Tesla is valued so highly, because if they pull this off, they will likely displace at least one of the big three.

1st Gear: Remember Toyota in particular invested in Hydrogen Fuel Cells, rather then investing in electric batteries. As a result, they are farther behind in some areas (battery tech), though arguably ahead in others as a result (especially power draw).

Meh. Cuomo is a very good politician, but I’ll go ballistic if he’s even in contention for the Democratic nomination in ‘20. He leads legislators, not people.

To be fair though, it’s the infrastructure concern which is the primary reason electric is winning.

Agreed 100%; Tesla is building for the future, setting themselves up to be giant in the industry. They’re being valued, rightly or wrongly, based on the expectation of future success.

Does it look good to the investors? No. But to be fair, this was kind of expected by anyone who understands the scale of what Tesla is attempting to do. If this problem persists into Q12018 then I’d be concerned, but for now this isn’t anything worth worrying over.

Saturn is an easy source of Helium-3 isotopes (great for Fusion).

“You didn’t care about going fast, you just cared about the planet”

This is why Tesla is going to win the “electric car wars”, as they are the only company willing to invest in the necessary infrastructure to make their product successful.

Glad I stopped playing a year ago, when control decks became impossible. Blizzard killed them off once and for all with the Win Axe nerf.

Bowsers Castle 1 (Mario Kart): A lap takes around 20 seconds at best, and Mario Kart was five laps, not three.

Yes. All I want is a modern Dinopark Tycoon. Is that so much to ask?

“Why would I spend more money on a brand new car that immediately loses value the second I sign the paperwork when I have the skill and ability to fix a used car and possibly even make it worth more than I paid for it in doing so?”

“Jobs are created by the wealthy”

This is a known phenomena: The more people witness an event, the less likely anyone will get involved. Essentially, “someone else will take care of it, why should I get involved?”.

I was just thinking this EXACT point. It’s quite possible he overcompensates for non-existent lag.

Yeah, my opinion is electric cars aren’t going anywhere until somebody invests in a charging network. And to some extent, Tesla is doing that. That’s why I want this to work, because there’s no way Detroit is going to make that sort of investment.

As has been said, the bulk of the cost is getting the supply line back up and running again. Congress basically killed the entire F22 supply chain specifically so the F35 wouldn’t be threatened.

Replace “Hurricane” with “Strong Tropical Storm”. New York really can’t deal with Hurricanes, much less strong (> cat1) ones.

The primary problem here is the solution (shutting down several lines for an extended period of time in order to properly fix them) causes just as much problems.
