I have a dreadful fear of burning to death in a fire, so no earplugs for me.

Who would have thought making a Mercedes that looks nothing like a Mercedes and charging Mercedes prices wouldn’t go well. We have to move away from EVs being designed like weird EVs.

They gotta fill all those pre-orders, over a million people are lining up at the door to buy one. In reality only like 1% of them actually want it, another 20% was planning on buying and flipping and the rest of the reservations were weirdos trying to flex with their $100 deposit.

Elon has been hitting the pipe hard

If only they had just made the truck a bit more conventional and easier to design and build, there would be a Tesla truck on the road today and it likely would have class-leading range and charging capabilities like its other vehicles.  Instead, they decided to create a never-ending list of engineering challenges for…

“a production goal of 250,000 per year by 2025.”

Yep. lotta phones don’t sport memory cards anymore though but I can upload my MP3's to my card via linux.

100% agree about satellite radio. I don’t want to listen to a disc jockey tell their stories, Beatle tunes on every channel PLUS the Beatles only channel, or multiple stations playing the same song at the same time.

THIS!!!!  This a thousand, billion, googleplex times this!!!!!

I’ve live in three of the biggest biking cities in the US. I have seen riders break every conceivable traffic/common-sense ruke in the book. I have seen bikers key cars, threaten people (pedestrians and drivers) with bike chains and locks, etc. Riders have obligations to their own safety and that of others,…

Every time I read stories like this, it’s always all about what everyone else needs to do to accommodate cyclists. Never is there ever a word about what cyclists need to do to build allies. I walk to and from work every day. Cycling to work, for the reasons outlined here as well as those mentioned in other comments…

This will never happen to any significant degree in the US. Work is too far away from home for 90% of workers. Hell, we can’t even get mass transport going, because of the same issue, and you think people are going to bike? And I got news for you on another issue: If you think I’m biking over 30 minutes to work in 110…

No oh god watermelon tastes bad enough on its own why ruin perfectly good coffee?
