You cannot be serious.

I’m not buying a car I can’t take on holiday with me, that’s just ridiculous. Especially considering it would spend most of the trip sitting around at a campsite.

EV cope, honestly.

Sorry, but sending emails and making power points doesn’t make you an intellectual.

What this shoes is that blue collar work is far more difficult, and involves far more thinking, than anyone who doesn’t do that work thinks.

Because those jobs actually involve thinking and problem solving, which AI cannot do.

These people are such utter losers that they think the middle class is the enemy. They have no concept of who the truly rich are.

Tell me about it.

Off you fuck then.

This “feature” is absolutely, 100% getting removed via software update.

And that’s probably for the best, if we’re being honest.

Just can’t help but bring him up, can you?

This is a really common, and really stupid argument people make.

Someone will say “an EV isn’t right for me because I do X”

And someone will almost certainly say something stupid that starts with the word “statistically”

I don’t give a fuck about what people do statistically, I care about what I do with my vehicle. And I’m not going to buy a vehicle that does 95% of what my current vehicle does.

In most jurisdictions, trucks are required by law to stop for the driver to rest every 5 hours or so. You can just charge the vehicle then.

It’s weird being online in the southern hemisphere sometimes.

This is pure cope from a nation that is a long way behind the rest of the world on EV technology. I’ve done some very long road journeys, 900+ km in a day, and having an EV would likely have added at least an hour to that day, even more if I was towing.

The reality: “Nobody stops to fuel their vehicle taking gasoline, gets out, rushes as fast as possible, puts as much fuel in the car as possible, and gets back in the car and drives away,” Cutler said.

This is exactly how I go about my business at a fuel stop. Maybe do a few stretches and check everything on the roof isn’t working it’s way loose, but once the pump clicks off, I’m goneburgers.

Just remember NASA are the ones doing this, not the air force. I don’t think they want to use it as a spy plane, and if they were designing a successor, you’d expect it to be the air force, or someone like DARPA doing this.

Do you know how hard it is to find a concise article about this that isn’t paywalled?

If that was the reason, wouldn’t it be the USAF and not NASA pulling them out of retirement?

If Trump came up with this, we’d have found out about it via Twitter the moment the thought came into his head.

The man tweets everything that comes into his head. If Trump came up with this, he’d have told everyone.

I’m always entertained by people like this. They think they’ve stumbled on a conspiracy, when what they’ve figured out is actually blindingly obvious.

Blackbird didn’t overly the USSR. The U2 did, and they learned the hard way that Soviet missiles went a lot higher than anyone thought.
