I know they’re cheap as hell and I’ve always heard good things about their quality. I just never seem to be close to one when I run low, except maybe on long trips, then I can usually time it right. Unfortunately the nearest to me is like 30 minutes out of the way from any other convenient errand I might want to throw…

If I remember correctly, they dealt with this issue a lot when the Discovery broke up on re-entry. The bits and pieces were scattered over hundreds of square miles and some people collected some of what they found instead of reporting it. 

Huh. I wonder if all Costco gas stations are like that, haven’t been to enough to know.

This is the correct analysis.

My bad. I didn’t notice it there. I had been checking latest and the shifts but I must have missed it. I just thought it might have been in bad taste but I was wrong. Regardless, my general point stands. 

Ahh but it’s financial. As in, “he yolo’d his retirement funds into GME”

You know what Jalopnik isn’t reporting on? The $900 million dollar recall of every single Hyundai Kona EV due to fire risk. They have to replace the battery packs for every single one. Not one article. But, you know, if it isn’t Tesla.

I believe it’s “yolo”

A sharp increase in BTC mining may be to blame for the shortage. Mining rigs require a lot of GPUs. There’s been an availability problem with Nvidia’s 30 series. Scalpers charging as much as $7,000 for a 3090RTX when the card should only cost around 700. It’s crazy.

This is what I’ve been saying. Neighbor has a truck that’s more than his mobile home. (rural south) Not judging, each to their own I guess. 

:o

Huh. I understand that sentiment with McFarland (hearing “Cleetus” has the same effect as nails on a chalkboard for me) but I’m fine with Rob.

Hopefully once they finish the Berlin factory and the Austin factory they won’t have to worry about those drains on their cash and can post profit while reducing the price. As it is, Musk probably wouldn’t mind having negative cashflow if it weren’t for the fact Tesla still raises capital from selling shares. I think…

So what did Biden tweet at 3am?

Ah. But with one exception. Tesla.

“No worries, Lamborghini has fire-proofed their entire 2020 product line”

*leans against car while checking fingernails* “yeah, lot of people ‘round here say I’m a car guy. I’ll let my tattoo speak for itself though.”

Rob Dahm! Cleetus McFarland used to be more apolitical and more personal. I followed his YT channel since a few thousand subs. Rob Dahm, however, is great. His vids are still the same quality and feel since he started. 

I was about to say... wasn’t Jalopnik just shitting all over the survey? Then when some report comes out about a Tesla being unreliable it’s suddenly accurate af.

Damn. Thanks for the links. Can’t decide to laugh at the stupidity or just be more depressed. Probably both.
