Yeah, if you have the Porsche bug, your take is the right one. Cayman is a purer sports car experience. The problem, is that no matter which model you choose, the maintenance and dealer environment is so painfully poofy, that low key people just can’t stomach it.

I amended my reply.  The description seems to be of the Porsche buyer, not Rory himself.

You’re missing the sarcasm in that definition I think.

This. In the modern era, taking care of deficiencies which a manufacturer finds after production and sale, is actually an improvement over previous attitudes.  Trying to dress this up as a fatal error or something is incredibly wrong-headed.  In so many ways.

Critical Republican Theory.

I think it was the only association with ‘back of the bus’ she could muster. Because she is an entitled person, who always was put at the front of the line in her distant hot youth. So now, when she is falling apart, and given less special treatment, due to the predictable effects of age and pop culture, she can’t…

You seem to thin responding like an asshole is ok. It’s not. You’ll get dismissed every time you do that.

Tesla isn’t the only electric vehicle manufacturer.

It would end up like propane tanks.  People would avoid shady operators, and get theirs done at places with quality control guarantees.

This is the way to go. We just need vehicles to be designed for fast-swap processes, then switch gas stations to battery swap stations.

You literally don’t know what ‘random’ means, do you?

I did. I’m a full professor in medical education.

And yes actually, it IS how ecological feedback systems (the Earth’s immune system) work. Ecology 101.

Your contention that society would collapse isn’t founded on what we know of the past. It is, in fact demonstrably incorrect. There is both historical and prehistoric precedent that proves otherwise.

Nah. We wouldn’t be fucked. A large percentage of humans would die, yes. But the species would survive. Essentially, predation would return to cull Homo sapiens. It’s just that instead of saber toothed tigers and leopards at night, it would be microorganisms.

They were actually smaller, yes.  Substantially.

Oh, you mean this thing:

Social media is cancer.

An irrefutable recommendation in and of itself.

To be fair, I imagine that name could apply to most of us here at one point.
