His fall is as clumsy as his alliterative name.

No, but electricity is a lot cheaper - especially if you’re charging at night at home. If it’s going to cost me $8-10 to fully charge my car at home, then I might honestly pay another $2-3 per charge if it means I never have to worry about plugging it in again.

That’s my understanding also. I always just try to be careful to not present myself as an authority. I’m just a somewhat well-read person on the internet.

Wirelessly transmitting that much power is pretty inefficient and produces quite a bit of extra heat. Ballpark an extra 30-50% on top of whatever you plan to pay to charge up the battery.

I have a big broom, not the broom broom sort of broom, more the ship of Theseus sort of broom. This broom has been used for many generations, the handle may have changed, the bristles may have changed, even the head holding the bristles may have changed, but as a thing to whirl around ones head whilst shouting at…

I’d imagine her job is “managing upwards” and keeping him as far away from SpaceX as possible, something Linda Y over at X needs to start doing.

Tesla refusing to provide Apple Carplay is chasing away more people than they’d care to admit, too. Sure they have a neat center stack but nobody touches Apple’s UI/UX. Just let people listen to music how they want.

Elon Mush is a fucking piece of shit and no one should ever buy a tesla and give him their money, period.

The rich aren’t like you and me - they have waaaay more money. For a billionaire maintaining one of these is like you or me maintaining a Corolla.

You can’t buy that right now...  Maybe in another decade or so.

Sorry Stephen, but I’m going to have to overrule you here. Buc-ee’s is the absolute shit if you’re traveling with your family and don’t mind a few extra minutes. I get that you were exaggerating for effect but I’ve never had to wait more than a few minutes for a gas pump, even when dealing with the traffic patterns…

In 2023, Toyota’s 3rd fastest car is a 3-cylinder Corolla, beaten only by the Supra 2.0T and 3.0T.

What about Zanardi’s crash where he lost both legs?

I tend to agree, whenever I see a buc-ee’s and need to make a stop, I go to the gas station across the street (almost always an option). At some point the place stops being a “convenience” store and starts becoming a Wal-Mart.

My worse experience is likely been fixed/demolished long ago, but likely points to the right answer for “in the world”.

‘I fly literally all the time’?

It looks like rear arm is too far forward to hit the jacking point for the C8 Corvette, and it was effectively resting on sheet metal. The correct jacking points are described here:

Toyota (and Ford’s) eCVT is a completely different beast. It achieves different ratios by having two electric motors act on a planetary gearset. There is a chain, but it’s only job is to bring in power from the gas engine, it doesn’t have a variable ratio or anything. It’s probably one of the most durable…
