Is it fair to even call Top Gear Prime a reboot? It may not be as great as the original show, but those guys are the reason why there have been so many attempted knock offs of this format.

“That is the best thing I can say because that can’t be said of nearly every other car show.”

As someone who ended up with permanent, thought non-life-threatening injuries because the police took their sweet ass time while a transphobic bigot beat the tar out of me, you’ll pardon me if I actually want the cops to show up when I call them. A few of those punches a couple inches further one direction or another,…

And, for what it’s worth, the current admin’s constant slighting of him remains generally counterproductive to our collective interest in an EV future.

GameStop raised $1 billion in sales of its meme stock, but never passed that on to its frontline workers.

Anyone with two thoughts to rub together is just going to head into the office so that they can’t be fired for cause and have problems with unemployment. Tesla’s HR department were probably shaking their heads on reading the email.

So your advice to those people instead is what?

Locking in a very low interest rate over a long period of time (with corresponding low fixed payment) in an inflationary environment was in fact a very wise thing to do.

You are, in fact, not the first person to come up with that little nugget of knowledge. 

You are very advanced for your age if you only remember 8.3% inflation! It’s only been above 3% since March 2021, except for the 80's and early 90's.

It is an attack for those of us that believe the government should have fewer regulations. The societal benefits are not lost on me, but I still feel personal accountability is preferable to being forced to do something. You can’t save everyone from themselves. It’s a damn complicated conversation and anyone that says…

Define “should”. Should the 99% of people who don’t drive drunk be forced to blow into their car every time they need to go anywhere? Should I care if someone is too stupid to wear a seatbelt and gets themselves killed? Should we restrict everyone to exactly the same speed so there is no passing, no speed difference…

I believe that the cost and complexity involved with retrofitting this into cars is vastly undersold by the author. And I do agree that it would be a bit annoying to have to deal with on a daily basis, especially for people who don’t drink at all. But I think I would deal with the annoyance for the peace of mind that…

That’s a lot of words to say personable responsibility (dangerous to say those words out loud). Americans treat a driver’s license as a right, not a privilege. And our licensing system is structured as such. Yes, America is unique in that our infrastructure relies heavily on personal transportation. That doesn’t mean…

Oh Hell No!  I don’t drink and drive at all. Zero. Given that I would HATE to have to blow a DUI device to start my car. 

Were there failures organizationally?

Clearly being vaccinated is not helpful.

Yeah that’s not remotely the lesson here. Vaccination ups your odds of avoiding serious infection; it’s not a guarantee. That’s always been the case.

That’s disingenuous. Vaccines help and it’s impressive but nothing is 100% and just because mortality rates have decreased thanks to Vaccines and masking, it doesn’t mean that people won’t unfortunately die due to complications as well.

This sucks for her family. 

It’s not a magic bullet but it’s a ridiculous logical leap to say it’s “not helpful”. I had COVID in March and around a week ago I had a non-COVID flu (as much as I can be sure, none of my tests came back positive). Quite honestly I’d rather have gone for another round with COVID after that flu, it was so much worse.…

As a PAX Enforcer this is obviously tragic news. I would like to urge people in the comments to refrain from blaming this person, a real person who is now dead, for her illness and death.
