Our nuclear silos still run on Voyager era technology, or at least they did until recently.

I was once a mechanic and the number of 6 figure car drivers that are running around with bald tires and begging their mechanic to put in cheap regular oil instead of synthetic oil is insane. Half of these guys don’t have 2 dimes to rub together.

It’s probably out of warranty by now. ;-)

I hope, if nothing else, this story dispels any myth that wealth is synonymous with higher intelligence.

Well, that’s the first time Nissan balked at sending out a poorly engineered product! (I’m not letting spelling get in the way of this joke.)

Compared to the 80 hp. Grumman LLV that was built in the 60's, anything would seem comfortable by comparison, heck, a Nissan Sentra would seem luxurious by comparison.

This man’s kink has nothing to do with Hofmeister.

“This is in great shape” plus “I have too many projects” = “This is hiding some horrible demon that I can’t cheaply fix and/or a million little gremlins that I don’t feel like fixing. Brush up on your German, because you will definitely need to make friends with an overseas BMW enthusiast group who can help you source…

Good point. But how about the price their vehicles properly to start with as Tesla does.

I once hid in a duck pond after stealing and crashing a Lime scooter in Lichtenstein Elbow. (Also, an acquaintance of mine hid in a lagoon after stealing and crashing a golf cart in Corsica Torso; not to mention my cousin, who hid in a water park wave pool after stealing and crashing a unicycle in Isle of Man Pelvis.)

Well it’s hard to make the wrap stick properly if you have blood on the panel from the sharp edges. Best leave it to the pros!

It doesn’t look exactly the same - the actual stainless steel finish looks like shit. The finish is inconsistent between panels, and they often develop a green or brown sort of scummy patina on them. There’s a Cybertruck in my city that I see every so often and the stainless steel finish in person looks godawful. It…

That’s an insult to dip shits.

$4,200 on making it look exactly the same.

Or just the build quality of a chrysmercedes.

Towing dollies don’t work?

Most of these EV motors are PMAC (Permanent Magnet AC) so that means there is always a field present (most generators have a wound field that is either self-excited *insert joke here* or separately excited).

At this point, making fun of the Cybertruck is like beating up a child with special needs because they didn’t understand some basic thing that neurotypical folks take for granted.

It should. Automated vehicles should be following the rules of the road, not the bad habits drivers form throughout their lives as shit drivers.

First Gear: For the love of god, Tesla (and Waymo and the rest), stop forcing the public to participate in your half-baked experiments against their will.
