It really does depend on your preference, doesn’t it?  I got nothing from Kid A or Amnesiac, while Pablo Honey is mainly for Creep, which is one of my favourite songs from any band - I would happily swap it for The Bends otherwise.  We are lucky to have had them at all :)

If I buy it, can I swap for Pablo Honey or OK Computer, one of the few perfect albums I have ever heard.

If you mean it couldn’t make a Saab any worse, you’re right. As a general design, though, no. I have always wondered how any of those three designs were chosen as OEM equipment, but each to their own. If you enjoy them as a car person, at least you’re into cars and have a reason for liking something.

No, it’s me that has spent my life trying to get them to consider interesting cars. My dad owned his most interesting car, an FC Holden, before I was born. They probably own their most interesting car as a couple right now, in their 70's. It’s a 2016 BMW X3, which they bought recently, which tells you all you need to…

Don’t be sorry about the length of the post, you have to try and make your case. All you did, though is show that spec lists don’t always make a better phone. The other phones you mention have bigger numbers in many things, but the only useful one every day is the battery size. The reason I would not buy those other…

The first five points each have some merit, but number six is just not accurate in my and millions of other people’s experience. You can think otherwise and I won’t try to dissuade you, but the evidence just isn’t there to support it.

I didn’t say I agreed with every manufacturing decision they make.  I merely pointed out that his take wasn’t grounded in reality based on my experience.

Can’t agree, sorry.  You can hate them all you want, though.

“Tesla is EXACTLY like Apple, and so are the consumers. It’s an abusive relationship of paying extreme amounts of money for an inferior and cheaply-built product that is somehow deemed “years ahead of its time.”

My current favourite EV is the Hyundai Ioniq 5, and this is looking better every day in the face of crap like this.  That choice may change as more cars emerge in the next 3-4 years before I retire, but it does not look like it will change to Tesla anytime soon, even if they reduced the price in Australia (which is…

I have never seen those plastic things before, I don’t think we have them in Australia. I thought it was patterned concrete at first. In any case, as someone else said, maybe hold onto the extra stone to fill in any low spots or gaps that appear. I live in an area where a few people have a second driveway, so I can…

Up until recently, oil has been overwhelmingly important to the existence of the car, early electric vehicles notwithstanding.  This blog wouldn’t exist without oil.

Um.

Yes, but the boss of a listed company shouldn’t be making public statements like this about products potentially failing. I have owned shares and know how it works, thanks.

I wonder if Tesla shareholders care if it’s a flop? I think they might. Lots of people put down deposits, but how many will follow through - time will tell.

Best wishes for the new arrival :)

That’s cool. I don’t have kids, but that idea is how I hope I would do it if I did.

Being Australian, I remember him as Alan Jones’ teammate in his championship year of 1980. They were very strong that year.  RIP Carlos.

And Australia
