Well I had to think about it for a while to make sure. Those double negatives are sometimes not unconfusing.

True, but if I’m not mistaken every one of these proposals is for electric vehicles.  If they do get the 100% autonomy figured out, maybe it would be possible for the vehicle to fly to an airport to refuel (I assume that is where kerosene is).  It’s easier to just install a DC fast charger at the landing pad.

Seriously.  If I understand right it was from the manufacturer self-certifying.  So the FAA allowed them to just promise that all the safety systems were OK.  How THAT idea ever passed muster is beyond me.  Industry (any industry) cannot ever be trusted to self regulate.

I was referring to the lack of redundant AoA sensors on the Max.  But not suggesting there are no other issues at Boeing.

I thought you leaned in to the “I don’t remember this car” thing a bit much, but otherwise it worked and gave me an impression of the vehicle, which is the point.

Hopefully they do redundancy correctly on all flight critical systems, unlike Boeing.

What did the pickup leave in the toilet?

It’s not happening yet because batteries are very, very heavy.

The idea behind redundancy is that the systems are independent. If there’s a one in a million chance of one computer failing (not unreasonable for a device with no moving parts), the chances of two failing at the same time is literally astronomical.

It would also be utter carnage if there *is* manual control

I wonder if it’s really accurate to just do a currency conversion.  Are there factors that cause cars to sell for more or less money in Canada than the US?

The Mythbusters proved that.  They did a helicopter drop on a kitchen grease fire and it went right out.

Oh I see, I assumed it would be one bank of fuel injectors per bank of cylinders.

my green 1994 Jeep shown above has 265,000 miles on the clock, while the failed 1993 has only 125,000. Clearly, the 1994 has had more door-opening events

It should have been “An optimal filled hem excluding air.  Prevents corrosion.”  An editor wrote “needs period for consistency” but rather than adding the period, the editor’s note was included in the final version.

Right, I saw some other comments that clarified.   I assumed “Sport” was a trim level of the Bronco, but it’s one of those things where it’s a completely unrelated model.  I don’t particularly care for that practice.

So what did he get wrong?

OK now I’m really curious how there’s a Bronco on my street already if they’re “coming soon”.

Perhaps they're referring to the one in the US.

I remember some very weird intersections there, with flashing lights installed in curbs where you wouldn't expect a curb to be.
