As far as on-the-road experience (not counting some nice routes/scenery), Michigan, especially SE Michigan, is horrible to drive in. The roads are in terrible disrepair, there’s always a shitload of (paradoxical) construction ongoing, and drivers in and around Detroit and Flint are aggressively mediocre. Left lane…

Solar City 2.0

They’re sitting ... really close to that much energy flinging apart.

Car emissions are out of sight, out of mind for you I think. Take a look at photos of LA from the 70s if you want to see what life could be like. You don’t care because emissions have improved DRASTICALLY because of this ruling. Regardless, we shouldn’t have to choose which protection we want more, the people should…

Christ, Elon has aged horribly in the last 8 years (assuming that photo is something circa 2016). Good.

It’s 10% of Tesla’s market cap. How anyone could remotely think a single person, even 100, is entitled to 10% of a company that size and complexity is incredible to me. $56 billion is such a silly number, it’s hard to fathom. do you think 1000 people working for a measily $56 MILLION could do a better job than one man?…

I missed the /s here ... Tesla has none of this.

Why wouldn’t you just buy a base model in that scenario and upgraded on your own?

Full Self Driving For Realsies This Time (tm)

ok, that’s a tiny fraction of your consumer spending. What about your food? What about your phone? Your car? Your appliances? Your electronics? Technically complex things that take a lot more resources to build and levee a heavier labor and material cost on the planet and on people. This is the weakest “buy ‘merican”…

Not much of a US/world history buff? This is incredibly naive. The bulk of products you have in your house are made in China. Getting holier than thou about manufacturing location is weak AF. Go actively advocate for human rights, but don’t bring that in as a serious counter to a superior and cheaper product in a…

This becomes clearer everyday. He nailed the timing and initial launch of Tesla, regardless of how he procured the company, he rode that wave to great financial success. The rest has been an utter shitshow. Buying his cousin’s failing solar company with Tesla funding? Killing Twitter? Forcing Cybertruck to happen?…

Huh?

Ok ... I’m trying to parse out a point from this word salad. Is it that you drive the speed limit and you don’t get pulled over? And that some internet bullies pick on you?

When you pour/measure a fluid, it’s a continuous measurement. When you buy something like a bag of chips, it’s a discrete count, either 1 or 2, etc. Having a price in fractions doesn’t really matter, since the fuel is being measured continuously (in fractions) anyway.

Does it matter? It’s a continuous measurement, not discreet. Fractions are inherent in the delivery.

Subaru HIDs or LEDs (not sure which) are fucking horrible. I’m in a lifted 4Runner and I’m still constantly blinded by recent Subaru offerings at night.
