I hear you...and that is why I write the articles I do, so that people are more knowledgeable and hopefully more responsible for their own decisions.

While I do agree this practice is bullshit and needs to end, why the hell should anyone have any sympathy for a person who goes for it? Ms. Morales had every opportunity to leave the dealership without a new car and take her business elsewhere. She decided to sign on the dotted line for a 15% interest rate on an…

With jets, a lot of the most important secrets are in the metalurgy, not so much the actual design. That’s why when the Soviets were given plans for the Whittle jet engine and a tour of the plant, they wore shoes with sticky soles to pick up some shavings.

I don’t know about that...I spent today at a government led seminar about how to export things, and what happens if you screw up. The FBI and Homeland Security agents that presented had all kinds of stories of scary stuff that made it out of the country.

Didn’t they just accidentally ship a Hellfire missile to Cuba?

You’re right, 20 years IS too light. This is straight up treason.

We haven’t had mandatory seatbelts or airbags for the majority of the history of driving, either.

Why call it “motorized doping” when you could use the much more accurate, much more straightforward, much less obfuscating “cheating?”

Meh. This semi-new-console concept is making me yawn and want to go back to PC gaming full-time.

No, I think that may be your individual resentment surrounding your own inadequacy.

I think this is about all I’ve got on my laptop.

Yeah, but did you piss off that old lady?

When I was pegged by a car (89 yr old pulling out from right-hand parking lot to go in opposite direction of traffic as me, not stopping before entering the road, beaned the Camry’s front-left quarter panel at the wheel arch at ~25 mph per GPS), I received zero…

Yes of course - cyclist deserved it, did something to incite it, probably provoked it. We can tell because of 30 seconds worth of video footage and our incredibly impressive internet deductive skills.

I gotta say, these are some of the worst fuckin’ first responders I’ve ever seen.

37 out of 40 cases reported to NHTSA were fake/fraud - so I dont see a problem with Tesla suspensions. Only problem I see is likely attempt to manipulate stock price by people who shorted it.

As far as I am concerned fake HNTSA submissions are a bigger issue, than snarky reply from Tesla. I see sarky response as perfectly appropriate to false accusations. Also, Niedermeyer and other trolls shold be investigated by SEC for possible attempt to manipulate stock prices for their financial benefit.

As a cyclist I say fuck that guy, the cops totally did their job.

No, I don't think so. Check out this study:

Yeah, sorry, no. Millions of people have walked down this path already with nothing to show for it but empty wallets.
