I can think of nothing more apt and ironic these days than an American team being bought and paid for by the Russians while they install a puppet driver that also enjoys grabbing women but suffers no consequences.

It is when that high was very obviously inflated and overvalued.

1st: Tesla falling 5% is hardly outside the norm and is not an indication that the bubble has burst.  This happens every few weeks. 

Did you get kicked in the head when you were a child? Eat a lot of lead paint chips, perhaps?

Have you considered, oh I don’t know, hooking your PC into your TV? I’ve been doing this for years.

As long as Microsoft handles the Xbox more like a PC extension and less like an actual console I don’t see the point in getting one. Why spend money on the console when 70-80% of the games are going to come out on PC as well?

There are always stories of Tesla superchargers getting backed up for hours around Thanksgiving and Christmas. I’m not sure why people are willing to subject themselves to that;

Yeah, it’s an interesting resource, for sure.

As Bloomberg also quotes an analyst who says that Tesla is “demand constrained, rather than production constrained,” which is a polite way of saying that Tesla could be halting production of Model 3s because buyers simply aren’t there.

Windows can freeze shut and doors can freeze shut on any car, although frameless windows are more susceptible. Apply “Gummi Pflege Stift” to all rubber seals every fall to eliminate the issue. I’ve been through ice and snow storms with never an issue. My Blazer doors used to freeze to the seals, no more. Two winters…

I fully believed we’d play GT7 this year. We’re approaching four years since Gran Turismo Sport’s release, and GT7 was mentioned as 2021 launch multiple times in Sony’s marketing materials. At a certain point, it became clear the game slipped into the latter half of 2021, which wasn’t terribly surprising as a…

It will come back. I can tell you that the entire sales organization of my company is jonesing to get back in front of clients again. Zoom is NO substitute for pressing the flesh and expensive lunches for clients.

I’ve always held that 80% of their work is trash research. The other 20% is passable. But they build in bias at so many levels that it is embarrassing. And the weighting within their surveys - I’m not certain where they come up with that.

“Tesla does fit more in line with a luxury brand than it does with a budget brand. Its not perfect, but its where they line up.”

I wish the car market would drop the “luxury” segment and rename it “premium” or “Tier 1" or some such thing. The problem with Luxury is that people immediately invoke that it lacks “smooth Corinthian leather” and is therefore not luxury when the segment is not meant to solely designate that.

I own a Tesla and a Chevy Bolt and there is no reason to think that Tesla is basing their pricing around Chevy’s. The cars are in a completely different league from each other. The Bolt has an adequate drivetrain but the interior is cheap and the ride is poor. The Bolt is an economy hatchback and Tesla makes luxury…

There is nothing wrong with not preparing the wind turbines for situations that happen very rarely, as long as you use have the mitigation strategy in place for when it happens. (case in point: Germany had to fire up some coal power plants as many solar panels were covered in snow and there was not much wind. It…

This notion that a wind farm can’t operate in the cold is full-on ridiculous. Judith Gap and Glacier Wind Farm operate in some of the coldest areas of Montana. Temps in that region AVERAGED -15 F last week.

“Japanese automaker believes hybrids and especially plug-in hybrids — in concert with EVs”

Good catch. It’s not disingenuous to say that Tesla has some of the worst-reported panel gaps of late, but then showing a picture of a vehicle which is clearly not a Tesla? No bueno, man.
