I never consented to driving around drunk or shitty human drivers either and yet here we are. 

“work for free,” and at their own risk.

I genuinely can’t tell if this is sarcasm or not.

People willing to give a company $50k then joyfully work for them for free while having wet dreams about the CEO is even more crazy

“I hit the brakes to the floor”
“Yeah, I can’t believe it didn’t stop”

Actual quote from the video. That is terrifying.

People willing to beta test my life are criminal.

Over the weekend, several prominent conservatives issued statements urging their supporters to boycott the crowdfunding platform...

On newer vehicles they’re typically on the BCM I belive

Tesla 2012: “These are the best designed, expertly crafted, highly coveted electric cars on the road. They’re the only cars that actually appreciate in value.”

They literally programmed their self driving system to break the law and presumably there will be no consequences whatsoever.

A way to properly recycle them is still just as necessary.

Solar storage seems to be the best use for these. Recycle the batteries that are truely no longer good, but reuse the batteries that have some capacity left. With most single family homes(82m in the US), space and weight is not an issue like it is in a car so a heavily degraded battery is not useless. A battery bank
