Shouldnt even be allowed here.

Because it’s not the authors job to know Chinas auto regulations, that’s why.

“Or Tesla does not want to give up intellectual property or autonomy to be a “partner” in China.”

Hmm yeah let’s give even more power to the drug-addled narcissist who is driving the company into the ground. bold_strategy_cotton dot gif.

If anything, the opposite is true. Tesla’s market value was always so far ahead of its actual growth prospects. What we’re seeing now is the market recognizing that it is actually impossible for Tesla to grow at the rate needed to sustain its market value. The stock has run up as Tesla grew from nothing to 2 million…

Indeed… because drag racing while towing a heavy load is a completely safe, common, and normal use for a truck.

Kelly was always a character known for prompting the hootin’ and hollerin’ from the “your dad and uncles embarrassing themselves at Hooters” studio audience, but even back then, she had some absolutely sublime comic timing and delivery that would continue throughout her career.

Applegate has had a really tough road in recent years between the MS diagnosis and the double mastectomy and oophorectomy.

Thisis 100% a “you” problem; I think I must have at least a dozen USB-A to USB-C cables lying around in my box of cables. USB-A  is still by far the most common charging port, so they're a necessity most places.

So...you’re telling us that you don’t have the right cable for your phone and that’s Hyundai’s fault?

Wow.

I know that USB-A to USB-C cables exist, but the Apple store doesn’t carry any and neither did my local Best Buy, and they still wouldn’t be as powerful as if the car would just let me use USB-C.

I am pretty sure this will be the most first-world problem I will read about, today at least. And if your local Best Buy doesn’t have USB-A-to-C cables, then your local Best Buy really sucks, or they’re all out of them because everyone else bought one. Amazon may be your friend here; they’re not exactly hard to find.

and instead just use earbuds all the time.

That literally only applies to their laptops and other high powered devices. 20w charging that iPhones support can literally be done with any old fucking usb C cable safely...

That’s half true. Apple did agree to the standard forced on them by EU regulation but they also had to Apple the USB C to their liking. If you look at their UBS A to USB C offerings, the come with some crazy under power specs for the cheaper cable and over spec’d for their high end cable. Apple knows their going to…

He’s a iPhone user. He has no idea that USB C existed until he upgraded this year.

usb A, B, and C only represent the connector type. the protocol (usb 2.0, 3.0, 3.2x2, 4, etc.) is what decides how much speed and power is available. hyundai pulled an apple, either for cost saving, or maintaining vehicle charge; they give you the port, but it provides less power/data than expected, much like non-pro…
