If you want to get outside of “science” where certain world views are defended against the facts and into science, where new facts don’t get shaped/ignored in favor of prevailing old views it is slowly becoming evident that a comet (or similar body) hit the north american ice sheet causing a catastrophic melting of…

“There’s a ton of money being thrown at climate change denial.”

You created a new tangent, dude. You want to explore the tax advantages given to electrics. The answer to that tangent of yours is don’t expect them to last forever. Do you really think when government has banned non-electrics they’ll need tax incentives to encourage people to buy electrics? No, because there isn’t…

My guess (from experience) is that it started because the mustang driver is doing the PSL or less (because driving a mustang late at night makes one a target for cops to meet their performance objectives) and mr. motorcyclist doesn’t like going slow late at night when nobody is around.

I’ve never been good natured enough when harassed to do that.

Don’t just slow down, nail the brakes hard enough for it to be a total surprise they can’t match due to reaction time. The asshat that’s staying along side of you ends up in front of you and now he’s at the very least in an awkward spot and you’re now in control of how close you get to him. Provided he doesn’t stop…

All laws are selectively enforced and when enforced the punishment is often more selective yet. This is the way americans and perhaps humans in general like their laws, where who a person is is the most important thing.

Taxation is used for social engineering that is very true. Just don’t expect those breaks to continue forever.

I realize that you’re just an asshole troll, but you keep giving the platform to discuss transportation topics you and others are entirely ignorant of.

That’s perfectly normal switching to an AT from an MT. So is catching the backside of the big ass brake pedal.

I’ve hit the gas with the brake a couple times (when needing to brake suddenly), but always driving three pedaled cars my left had pushed the clutch down so the only byproduct was noise.

People don’t wreck things to wreck them in most cases. They just use them stupidity or abusefully but then want someone else to pay for the consequences. As such they say they were using it normally when suddenly it spontaneously broke.

The favorite of my career was when I got a product that was replaced under…

Too bad Audi didn’t have such systems back in the day.

Poor Tesla Motors. Welcome to selling product in the real world. No matter what the user was actually doing with it, it just broke spontaneously of its own accord when being used correctly. Sometimes it breaks while properly stored away too.

The problem is the car is the router for the private network. The router is always static on that side. Anyways... Dynamic IPs are ‘leased’ for days at a time and can remain the same for years.

It’s found very easily because they picked a common port number. So we are looking at 256*256*4 (or some other low number of common ports, which at most might be a couple dozen) Now if they had used an obscure port number it’s 256*256*10000 or more. That’s what I was getting at.

IP address was static, 192.168.8.46:8080

I’ve not screamed nor did I claim a global conspiracy. That is a strawman you and others construct for your own purposes.

I claimed that there are groups (because there are, and you can find them if you spend 5 seconds looking for them, and I’ve mentioned one and linked to articles mentioning others) which will not…

You apparently don’t understand what the word control means or more likely have decided simply to ignore the meaning of words to suit your trolling. When a government tells you that you may not have X. That you may not use Y. That you must do Z. That is exercising power, that is control. That is managing the…

That’s the exact same intersection. Randolf and Dearborn. Pick any big city center you want. You’ll either find that city center congestion problems predate the automobile or that the roads were wide before the automobile or both.
