Pontiac actually had an identity until the day it died,

“Loved it”? In God’s name why? I was thrilled when they took this off the floor.

Fun fact- convertibles are only great if you have really short hair. Otherwise they’re a great way to get tangles and sunburn. They’re great in theory but they’re typically owned by someone who will mansplain to their passengers why “convertibles are great, actually.”

A modern industrial robot arm could do that several orders of magnitude faster. Some robots are so fast they use carbon fiber arms to damp vibration and reduce cycle time. Elon’s droid is a unicycle in a Superbike race

That robot looks like it’s staging a work slowdown to protest management policies...

It sort of reminds me of a friend who worked for an insurance agency that had a big meeting where they announced they were now a blockchain company, they shut down shortly thereafter

Yeah, but for people with graduate degrees (maybe we could incorporate Lancia).

So basically, Stellantis?

I dream of a new automotive industry conglomerate, made up of others’ castoffs: Saturn-Saab-Spyker-Fisker

Do you just put your life in the hands of “advertising” without looking into it further? In a company where the company CEO says safety is a waste?

It seems a common question is “why aren’t these regulated”.  I’m thinking how difficult it would be to create and organize a regulating body that would then have to come up with standards and means of enforcement for something that goes into bodies of water in all kinds of different nations territories (or…

“but would you also say that for everyone that climbs into a passenger jet?”

Nice try, but no cigar for your replay. Two giant holes in your argument: 1) how there’s the FAA regulating what goes into passenger jets so they’re built well for near worry-free traveling so we don’t have to be engineering experts. And when there are accidents, the findings of the NTSB’s investigations nearly always…

If you think the point of a supercar is to get places quicker you are seriously deluded

Have they tried Auto Zone? 

Agreed. It’s just more pointless security theatre, but it’s harmless.

Agreed. Not so much ACAB as CAMBBTSLAMCIOKW (Cops Are Mostly Bastards But This Seems Like A Margin Call I’m OK With). Not as pithy but you get the point.

Legislators fear that the TSA will condition Americans to view facial recognition as normal

One was not an active threat to anyone, the other is a guy riding a vehicle that weighs a few hundred pounds at 30+ miles per hour on a path meant for pedestrians lol

I’m normally on the ACAB side, but I’m really struggling to be displeased with what the cop did here.
