“What advantages does this war have over, say, an ethnic cleansing, which I could also afford?”

Excellent points. Especially the part regarding Nvidia.

There are 30k parts in a car and the ability to design/manufacture/install those pieces (while turning a profit!) is incredibly difficult. I think you’re really underestimating the knowledge that it takes to manufacture vehicles.

Seems to unfairly weight the standing ability to manufacture a traditional, gas powered automobile.
I’m expecting that skill to decrease in value as electric cars before more standard.

Gas engines are not going away any time soon. Hybrids will become commonplace before straight electric. While an electric motor is far simpler than a gas powered engine, a Hybrid is even more complicated than simply adding the complication of each technology.

I wouldn’t call it “desperate to catch up” necessarily.

I’m surprised not more people pointed this out. The people probably thought they were both Teslas because it was following a Model X. And given the Model 3 is in prototype stage, they just assumed that was it.

But breaking the law is not harmless! It’s automatically immoral and unsafe regardless of the circumstances!

No, passing on a double yellow is being an asshole. Swerving to intimidate and kill is [attempted (edit)] murder. Asshole is much lower on the scale.

What kind of sociopath thinks trying to kill someone over a traffic infraction is equivalent to the traffic infraction?

Harmlessly passing someone in a no passing zone isn’t being an “asshole” . Trying to murder two people is.

Formula E will be great if they stop hamstringing the teams and manufacturers like they do in F1. Come up with a KW capacity, mandate that, 4 wheels, and safety equipment. Then let the teams’ imaginations run wild.

That’s a lot of words for not caring.

No way man, get out there and coat that car with a soapy ice sheet, then split your head open falling on ice in 8°f weather. That’s what a true enthusiast would do.

In winter, when my hoses will freeze, my buckets will freeze, my power washer will freeze, and my butt will freeze, I will use a car wash to keep my car clean. Stating that I don’t care about my car because I use a car wash is a hideously stupid conclusion to draw.

The other issue with hand washing is that it doesn’t clean the undercarriage of the car. What does that mean if you live in the midwest? R-U-S-T.

To be fair, there are plenty of people for whom hand washing isn’t always an option.

“Driverless Uber car”

Somewhere there is a bicyclist in NJ who is alive today because Lane Watch picked them up along side my Accord where my passengers mirror didn’t. I have my mirrors like your tutorial.

I’ve never driven with Honda’s LaneWatch feature before. Maybe it’s a distraction? Maybe it’s a live action movie of your life? Who can say.
