I think that’s what the German judge was saying but changing the phrase “totally cool” with “totally illegal and unsafe” when it comes to the touchscreen controls for a critical function.

I think you’re right because a large part of all this is Tesla created a problem that had already been solved. For the purpose of what? Being different? OTA controls and updates?

I got it without any explanation. It’s satire. High-level satire. Nuanced and multi-layered. Commentary, opinion isn’t intended to reinforce what you think, but to challenge you to think ... more. Wish the Oregonian had said that.

That’s the answer to all our problems: Clippy.

I have only one star with which to honor your comment. But it is yours.

I’m kind of a fan of the Boeing Starliner, but I’m not even sure it works yet. But you’re right about the space shuttle. I grew up watching that thing, and thought it was cool as a kid, but even though it launched in 1981, it was really old tech even then. It was very expensive. Not very efficient. I think The New…

... or perhaps they do.

One of the listings mentioned a setup, and that can make a playable guitar extremely good. There’s only so much you can do for a bad guitar, but it’s easy to find a good guitar for very little money these days.

That was one of the most disturbing parts of this story. Because he thought he was soooooooo right that he would video his acts of self-righteous racism, and he thought that also would be valued. I’m trying to have hope, but details like this make it feel elusive.

You might not be wrong, but “Unacceptably Dry Scones” isn’t wrong either. Many HOAs can and do foreclose on property and sell them out from under the owners.

I have to agree. Michael also is a really good writer who interlaces biting humor with his biting commentary. It makes the medicine go down a little easier.

Love you, Jason. This was just the best.

I wonder what’s worse: Literal Nazis or figurative Nazis? Maybe we should do a poll.

In my experience, HR departments have one job: To protect the company and limits its legal exposure. Doesn’t make them unusual or evil, but it’s not a bad to thing to know this. They also answer that odd question about your 401(k) too ... which is helpful.

That’s what it sounds like he said, but I suspect he meant that he would have acted the same way the pastor acted given the same circumstances. That is, he would have pulled his concealed weapon to protect himself and then would have called the police.

Looks like Verizon.

Shockingly, they made the PT Cruiser look worth of my clicks.

I know what you’re saying, and it’s a well-made point, but it’s not always your choice.

Yup, when I bought my first WRX, I was looking for used. I found price for a new one was around the same price as the used market was for a model that three years older. Since this was 2016, the older WRX was MUCH older because of Subaru launching the redesign.

Isn’t octane about compression ratio and combustibility? The higher the number, the less combustible the gas, meaning you can compress it more and get more power from the resulting highly-compressed explosion. Meaning 87 is more combustible than 93?
