Dismissed for lack of standing in 3...2...1

How else are you supposed to get the bottom clean?

once is enough

This article, which was written on the heels of an article from the Atlantic, seems to be written with a false premise- that somehow US automakers are ONLY making huge, behemoth EVs. That is so far from the truth its ridiculous that an automotive journalist versus me wouldn’t at least do the slightest amount of

I’m reluctant to speak on Ruffles’ behalf, but if I had to guess I think what they mean is that most people with “FSD” (I’m never gonna not scare-quote that) won’t be stupid enough to engage it in snowy conditions. Or at least they won’t be stupid enough to engage it and assume it will work. They will, like the guy in

The weight is the most ridiculous rule ever.  It incentives inefficiency.  Give me a fucking break.

First gear: Remember when South Korean Companies got dinged for overstating mileage and economy?

Presumably the excuse, which is a good excuse, is that tax laws changed mid-year which meant that a lot of people who were going to buy towards the end of 2022 would change to buy in 2023. They tried to compensate for this at the very end of Q4 by giving a $7500 discount (equal to the 2023 tax credit) to convince some

It swore deliveries would increase by 50% over 2021

Why wanna vomit? There are wealthy people. You sound so bitter...Maybe work on your Pulitzer and you can join the club. All for fun! Seriously. In England the rich are hated; in the USA, we want to be like them.

I think you are stuck with what you see online and your own echo chamber. Like panel gaps, most people just don’t care.

Interesting. I don’t really have an argument to refute that technicality, even though I want too. Maybe after a coffee I’ll have a retort but for now enjoy your victory?

The part you missed is the WHERE it can operate fully without human intervention.  Just look on YouTube. There are plenty of examples of it doing great. There are example of it messing up. Tesla has already delivered according to your own definition. The full in full self driving refers to the cars ability to fully

So you are saying a more accurate depiction of “Full Self Driving” current capabilities is actually “Partial Self Driving?”

What’s your definition of “self-driving”? Does it need to be the same or better than a human at the whole of driving, or does it just need to be able to drive itself for specific parts of the journey?

I wonder if there’s a difference between wearing tires out naturally on the road (which includes hundreds of heat cycles) and shaving them down. I bet the heat cycled ones don’t grip as well as shaved.

I would buy the Michelins because they have a cool looking tread, I am 41.

We now have indisputable confirmation that a media giant suppressed the truth because it could harm the democratic party, and Giz’s main commentary is “Who cares, the files are booo-ring.” I’m astounded at the vapidity. Fucking astounded.

I have my Fiero on snow tires for RallyCross. Totally the same thing, right?
