That doesn’t usually happen, does it?

Holy sweet cannoli, some of these people defending Musk.

I’ve hit some crazy things with much cheaper cars and never had the wheel come off.  Tesla needs to stand by their product instead of coming up with bullshit excuses why they shouldn’t.  Tesla isn’t quite mainstream enough to pull this shit.

My first thought, too. Plus, zero hesitation in saying “oops we screwed up and we’ll fix it.”

Speaking as a graphic designer who designs logos for a living...those two logos can barely be considered similar. Different typefaces, different case, the “the’s” — while bookended in both versions — are styled differently. Not to mention different industries. This is a non-story for me, and getting a charge from…

She gets an instant pass for me. This ended up being free, international level advertising for TheFolklore. All good.

The logo of Folklore is literally the word folklore. It’s not unique enough to be reasonably labeled as stealing. I’m glad Swift honored this though.

Yup. The next car I buy will be an EV. I refuse to buy an automatic ICE.

It can help you pay better attention to the road.

I’ll never own an ICE powered car with a missing pedal, but I also can see that the days of ICE powered cars are just about done.

Always bought cars with manuals, up to my 2018 Golf Sportwagen, but it is the last one as I regret cheaping out and not getting the DSG.

I like driving a manual. I learned to drive on a manual, and for years I would not even consider buying a automatic, but I moved on. When looking at the last car I purchased, there was one that had a manual, and I chose the automatic. I rented a Mustang GT convertible the other day, and it was an automatic. I did not…

I love manuals, but the benefits of having one have become practically nonexistent aside from “I like the feel” and that it’s a pretty good theft deterrent. The fuel economy argument is gone and the electronic clutchless “shifting” is getting better by the year.  The end is nigh.

Plain clothes, running up and snatching someone without clear establishment of what authority you are representing is not how we as Americans accept an arrest. This person was not a violent extremist or anything that would require a tactic of this level. Nor would would we arrest someone who did meet that level in…

Fuck you. 

Do you lick the boot or do you also suck on it too? Like whats your technique.

Also, the negative partisanship is the reason we have no empathy anymore...and when you can look at this an be like “cool” then our democracy is fucking dead.

Jesus Christ. Can we stop judging this work – which feels thoughtful, not over-thought, and considered, not calculated – on our assumptions about its maker? I don’t believe there’s any ‘board meetings’ here, just a woman with the talent and, yes, the contacts and resources to do whatever the fuck she wants, on her own…

This comment with that avatar. You’re an idiot. Politics are in everything, so quit complaining and start dealing with real life.

No, they ruined your country.

If you think Gizmodo should ignore all the shit going on in the world and just stick to aliens, you should probably find a new website to read.
