I could have sworn Tesla offered to let people use their charging plugs if they wanted to back in the day, and everyone kind of said “nah, we’d rather spend money to develop our own.”

Well to be fair they didn’t license in the US until recently though I think they were forced to in Europe a few years ago. Their thing is there are a LOT of Superchargers, mostly or maybe all Level 3, which IMO is the ONLY public charging that should be allowed outside of extended stay locations like home, work,…

Jesus Christ, Boeing.

Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.

Im confused as to how trying to start your car is a “software glitch” ?

It’s not as bad as Ed’s awful green loafers. I can’t un-see them.

This is not sour grapes at all - but that is the least attractive Veyron I’ve seen. The red wheels look like they’re straight from an Autozone.

I’m no Certified Business Genius, but I’ve always thought that a good way to improve one’s stock price is to develop, produce, and then sell desirable products at a price somewhere north of the production costs.

On the one hand, I think there’s something to the fact that this is a legitimate wrongful-death suit. That company was shady as shit and innocent idiots paid for it with their lives.

I need earplugs to look at that garbage.

I think this is one of those cases where rarity does not translate to desirability. In addition to giving me Jaguar XKR vibes (in a bad way), describing a Ferrari-derived engine as “bulletproof” is laughable, especially given the mention of a spate of “minor, but wildly expensive” work done recently. What happens when…

I mean, it’s an overpriced Kia Rio with a lift kit—it’d be more of a miracle if it wasn’t terrible.

I mean, yeah, but it’s totally ripping off The Night Watch in a way that I love. Just look at the old, Captain Barbosa-looking Batman with the yellow cloak! There’s even different models of Bat-Suit!

That looks horrendous

It’s an adult version of Lite Brite or Etch a Sketch with automation.  Sure, it makes some funny/interesting stuff sometimes, but it’s a toy, not a tool.  Only artists might be able to make use of it as a tool, and most artists I know loathe AI even more than I do.

It’s also a pretty poor reflection of Wall Street’s supposed expertise, given most of us normies knew these AIs are little more than stupid toys to play with for a few minutes, at best. That’s not to say it can’t produce some fascinating stuff. For example, a friend and I were going back and forth asking AI to make…

Wall Street is finally figuring out that all AI’s today are dumber than rocks, and that comparison is an insult to rocks.

This’ll be a weird one, but I’m going with the idiotically-named Kia Stonic I drove while in Ireland. Those of us stateside likely won’t know about it (mercifully so), but it’s a Euro-market smallish crossover. It was so forgettable that I had to use Google to recall it’s name. It had the wimpiest 1.0L three-cylinder…

Compressed gases are harsh mistresses. Those who do not treat them with the utmost respect, WILL eventually be reminded just how much force a simple equation like PV=NRT can transmit to the unwitting.
