  1. Asimov, is one of my favorite authors, he did not invent these ideas they have been true forever.

  2. On getting your electric car totaled by the insurance company; I was told that they are worried about the electric parts being damaged where you can't see it later causing a short or a fire. and that's why they total the cars. I don't know if this is right or not or if it should be a thing that they do.

  3. Seems like a normal operation to me, Ukraine will win.
    116
  4. Since Tesla's stated plan is to put as much electric vehicles as possible as soon as possible on the road, I'd say Ford is helping Tesla's plan.
    105
  5. A proper Sheriff has the trust of everyone, including the crooks.

  6. Where did anyone get the idea that North Korean troops had any combat experience? Not in 70 years.
    87
  7. I own Tesla stock, I am waiting, not hurting.

  8. It is hard to think clearly when you are drinking.
    67
  9. As a veteran of the Vietnam era, 1963-1967 ASAF, I think you have a point, its time to learn more from others with different experience, now that's inclusion!
    66
  10. You have been watching the Russians for to long, you are starting to understand them.
    64
  11. I was a fire fighter in the USAF and learned about the things you mentioned, the only fires I actually had to put out were structural fires, but we practiced on aircraft fires. You made a fantastic video here, thank you.:finger-red-number-one:
    59
  12. I don't care what Trump wants to hear, I just care that Ukraine gets to be the winner.
    58
  13. Drinking and driving is never a good idea, assuming it was an accident. Murder comes to mind.
    52
  14. If an EV wasn't a capable towing vehicle, there would be no diesel-electric trains.
    51
  15. OK, that was funny.
    51
  16. I was a radio engineer for APS in Arizona back in 1967 after I got out of the USAF. We still used tubes then, but over several years converted to transistor equipment. The old tube equipment was made by RCA and called CW-20 microwave relay. Our system ran all over the state on the mountain tops. You really had to know a lot of different things like snowshoeing and climbing towers (280 ft). Back then we worked by ourselves which was a little dangerous, things have changed a lot now.
    49
  17. Simple, they can't.
    46
  18. Squeezing water out of a rock comes to mind.

  19. Or anybody else for that matter.
    40
  20. And you can't fix getting behind the curve either, no matter how hard you try. (In this case the economic curve). Its like trying to catch a falling knife.
    39
  21.  @chad_8313  Russia has lost over 3 million people escaping Putin, they are all over in every country that would take them.
    37
  22. Nor does that instill the desire to make good products.

  24. At 80 years old, I am impatiently waiting for mine. I want to get mine before I die.
    36
  25.  @111076tom  You got that wrong, its all about being as small a target as possible.
    36
  26.  @wardenprincess2257  Since the political parties officially started in 1792, and the Bill of Rights was ratified in 1791 it would be correct to say they did not exist, but Madison would have known about them since he was one of the founders.
    35
  27.  @terraplane1116  He should have said, for the purists, powered plane.
    35
  28.  @stanleyolszewski7701  Being a former fireman in the USAF, I can say real firemen move fast but purposefully. You don't want to trip over your own feet.

  29. Never tell the guy that's doing it that he can't.
    33
  30. As a twin, I concur.
    32
  31. Way back in the early 70's almost the same thing happened here in Phoenix, AZ. I got myself elected to the board and "hired" a bunch of good people to be umpires, I replaced all the old ones. I put my first wife in as chief umpire and the first time someone got out of line, she threw them off the field. That's all it took, word got around fast and the problem disappeared like magic. Many years later I ran across one of the men I got involved and he remembered what we did and thanked me, at the time no one believed it could be done. No police were ever involved. It takes a few good men and I thank them. As they say, "Teamwork Makes the Dream Work". A little addendum, My wife and I always carried a rule book in our hands, put never had to use it!
    29
  32. Mercedes is correct, but does not realize that Elon is not just building another kind of conventional car, if he built an ICE car, they would have the same problem.
    29
  33. This time they had their cup of coffee before they went to work.😉
    27
  34. Anyone interested in where we are heading could read "Dying of Money" by Jens O. Parsson and "When Money Dies" by Adam Fergusson.If you want to see the final result. I like "This Time is Different" Eight Centuries of Financial Folly also.
    26
  35. I hope none of the academics got a degree from China. I ran across one that could not explain his thesis to me. (Because he did not write it).
    25
  36.  @thomaseriksson6256  I would check on their capability much closer than you did, you might come up with a different answer.
    25
  37. Codified an existing right you mean.
    25
  38. I actually sorta did exactly that, and with my boss in the truck! It happens!
    24
  39. .223 rounds.
    24
  40. True, and you can't fix stupid.
    24
  41. I would like to point out that not all factories are Giga-factories. Also, some of the pictures are of regular cells being manufactured (18650 or larger Li-ion) not the new batteries. 70% isn't 100%. Limit the hype.
    24
  42. No one predicted one of the two sister ships of the Titanic (1912) would sink, The Oceanic (1911) was scrapped after 24 years service and the Britannic (1913) sunk in the Aegean Sea in WWI (with a passenger that was on the Titanic when she sunk, whom survived both sinkings).
    24
  43. But are you willing to take a pay cut when the profits go to zero?
    23
  44.  @MikeOxlong-  Since I know what I am talking about better than most, I think Ryan and other U-Tubers are trying harder and harder to keep up, which leads to slight errors that can be corrected by better post editing. I could point out that that is exactly what the Ukrainians are up to, using them for two purposes, counter battery fire and drone strikes. The bomb-lets have very good use for the adapted purpose. It would be normal for the munitions to be taken off of the inventory list but still be in the warehouse. These bombs have additional safety protection with a timer that goes off after a certain period of time so they don't get left on the battlefield. Hardly anything is ever thrown away, I know some things were sunk destroyed or dumped but not what was in the warehouse. The ship guns that were stored from WWII have been repurposed for bunker buster bombs for instance. Old munitions get used up and get replaced with new forever. In the Vietnam war, we used aircraft systems (105, 101, A-4, etc ) that were outdated as well as food and ammunition that was stored from WWII.
    23
  45. I used to do that with my Auto Union 1000-DKW, 1qt of oil per 10 gallons of gas. After about 60,000 miles of this punishment, it would feed the piston rings out the exhaust ports. (You are supposed to use 2-stroke oil which is not 1/3 detergent, but the engine was always very clean inside!).
    23
  46. One thing I found out; you can't protect against all idiots.
    22
  47.  @williamryan9195  Everybody should know that bullying begets bullying.
    21
  48. Its getting harder to follow what is going on, so thank you for doing it.
    20
  49. String theory has at least the ability to tie itself together.
    20
  50. There is no good or bad advertising, there is only advertising. No advertising is death. The best advertising is free advertising, Controversy keeps people interested.
    20
  51. GM's $1 billion recall was only part of the total cost which is hidden in what the battery manufacturer had to pay.
    19
  52. If you look at a wam-bam Tesla cam video of 30 crashes with Teslas, only about 5 were blamed on the Tesla driver and no serious injuries or deaths. That's pretty safe. Sometimes the car helped to minimize the crash. Stats prove Tesla's are at least 8 times safer up to 10 times safer. People are keeping records and comparing FSD with no FSD. FSD is at least 15 times safer.
    19
  53. Chaos is already there, it won't go away.
    19
  54.  @abdullahalkandari2976  No, they are beating the Russians 7 to 10 to one.

  55.  @carriebryan1211  True, but all civilians have the same rank, that doesn't stop you from being polite.
    18
  56. Doesn't the tug do what the Captain of the ship asks them to do?
    18
  57. Why would anyone want to get involved in such a political situation?
    18
  58. I really would like to see shipping rates stay up because this would guarantee more onshore manufacturing
    17
  59. I would like to point out that this was not a case of being spit out by the entertainment industry. Although that has happened to many.
    17
  60. You among all people should know, and I think you do, that you can't believe everything you see on the internet.
    16
  61.  @eganc1976  Up 1.05% today march 25, how is that sinking? Musk has the most valuable companies in the world.

  64. Union's started strong, but are ending with a bad reputation. Ex United Mine Workers Union member.
    16
  65. Back in the 30's GM said front wheel drive cars were dangerous.
    16
  66. Really , really bad maintenance. This remark is from a guy that spent many years maintaining emergency generators on land. My motto was in an emergency, it won't start.
    16
  67. You are missing how many idiots there are in the world.
    15
  68. In 5 months all I got was positive attention, especially from young kids, they all know what a Cyber truck is. I took two trips from Peoria, AZ to Fort Collins, CO 820 miles each way with absolutely no problems, except I hit a deer in a snow storm who ran off ($45 worth of damage). I can't see any problems with mileage. That was before I got the front motor replaced (had a harmonic noise), now it has more range. I did the same trip in my model Y.
    15
  69. I convinced my son-in-law to go electric. I didn't push him, just said what I thought. He figured it out for himself.
    15
  70. Luddites have been around for a long time, I don't think they will go away any time soon.
    15
  71.  @MrWeedWacky  Their not, it is against the law, like that is going to stop them. Criminals do illegal things.
    15
  72. Fixing the what is exactly what has made commercial flying safer, to bad it isn't applied to private flying as well as other areas.
    15
  73. You should go out and work for a union and then for a company that has no union and see what the difference is. I've done both and worked for the state as well. Musk is just telling the truth.
    15
  74.  @brothersoulshine  Last winter was warmer. The Russian winter has broken more than one army.
    15
  75. Do you know who pays for vandalism? The insurance companies and where do they get their money? YOU! Turn these fools in! They are costing you money!
    15
  76.  @ChR1St0p4eR  Have you ever thought of the depressing effect on soldiers of seeing their rusted out broken tanks for the first time and not knowing how to operate or repair them? If I had to fight the Ukrainians with WWII equipment, I would surrender if I was a Russian, except I'm an American.
    14
  77. Reads like a hit piece to me.
    14
  78.  @jonka1  That goes for me also. I haven't made a mistake all day.
    14
  79. Of course its explosives.
    14
  80. It's the same one, they hit it twice.
    14
  81. I wonder why the use of Cobalt in making gasoline isn't mentioned. It is 40 times as much as its use in car batteries, meaning that the use of Cobalt will go down 40 times when it isn't used to make gasoline. Soon, no car batteries will use Cobalt at all. This is a very distorted picture.
    14
  82. 4th phase, Russia disappears.
    14
  83. You need to use Occam's razor.
    14
  84.  @billkeithchannel  90% of the O2 put onto the atmosphere comes from the ocean.

  85. Serfs. Nothing like arresting your only remaining workforce.
    13
  86.  @rg5207  That's not true and never was.
    13
  87. They had the same problem with Hydrogen bombs.
    13
  88. That would mean all the engineers are dimwits. Why not make smaller brakes?
    13
  89.  @wuhaninstituteofvirology  I am independent & very resourceful and I depend on many other people. No man is an island.
    13
  90. You could have stopped with "white sheet and pole ". Oh yeah, you did.
    13
  91.  KelyEngland-truthteller  No, but he is working on it, what about you?
    13
  92. No excuses are needed to justify what the most advanced military suggests. Even I can figure this out.
    13
  93. They will forget to open the doors and it will explode inside the sub. Oh, yeah, that happened already, didn't it.
    13
  94. My 2023 model Y LR with FSD version 11.4.7 is insanely good at driving safely in the city (Peoria, AZ). It still makes navigation mistakes and nags me incorrectly and occasionally does not slow enough for speed bumps.
    13
  95. The truth is almost all Americans support Ukraine, not 73%.
    13
  96. That would be true if you knew what you were talking about, but you don't have a Tesla, so you don't know like I do.
    13
  97. Quite right, when I hunted them they always disappeared the day hunting season opened.
    12
  98. @@arisnotheles Yes confounding the Russians is a better strategy. Using the same old ideas is not a good strategy. New ideas hidden in an old idea wrapper is better. A close re-reading of the "Art of War" would be in order.
    12
  99. I worked with Aussies when I was in the USAF, you are the most like us personally of any other society.
    12
  100. I see that you have learned the cars behavior same as I have, you really can tell it slows down and pays attention to emergency vehicles.
    12
  101. Actually, she gave the correct answer. In the context of Madison, everyone had a carriage that could afford it.
    12
  102. Gaza does not make us look good or bad, but it does show Iran's dislike of the "Palestinian" people or should I say cannon fodder.
    12
  103.  @harrymills2770  It is important when looking at another person not to impute your own motives on what they are doing, especially when you are not doing.
    12
  104. OK, OK.
    12
  105. Which is better than not having one at all. (U.S.).
    12
  106. Since all this has been done many times, I see no problem, the trouble is no one remembers what happened in the past, I do. Are people finding out war is not a picnic for the first time? Get real. There is no moral path. There is only win or lose.
    12
  107.  @peterfireflylund  They didn't even bother to train them. They met their quota.
    11
  108. Yep.
    11
  109. Only until there isn't anything left to steal.
    11
  110. This submarine was hit twice, not just once.
    11
  111. Blame those that elected them.
    11
  112. This is foolish, don't get in a car you don't know how to get out of, I always tell my passengers how to open the door if the battery fails, it is easy, just a manual latch.
    11
  113. Yes, it absolutely does. Any emotional response helps memory as well.
    11
  114. When I suddenly became an electrical grid operator, they "trained" me for two weeks and put me on night shift. I calculate that I only lost the company several million dollars before I got the hang of it. (You have to visualize the entire electric system outside your tiny room).
    11
  115. We need 50,000 Cybertrucks per year, I got mine.
    11
  116. I will nominate Sal for any job he wants to do. As long as we can still say, "Better Call Sal".
    11
  117. We haven't even figured out if we are at the limit of intelligence yet.
    11
  118.  @PeterDanielBerg  Because the aging process is not one of our most important things to study. I'm 80 years old and I should know.
    11
  119. I take my hat off to the Ukrainians that are willing to trust their advisors, it takes real trust to put yourself in the hands of strangers.
    11
  120. The Ben Franklin Bridge, I remember driving across it twice just for fun when they finally removed the toll on it.
    11
  121. By the Russians.
    11
  122. Its the other car companies paying the bill.
    11
  123.  @francoisconstant5986  Salutes are done on purpose, just like a wave is, how did you read his mind? He is not a lot of things, but I am an engineer without a degree, my degree is in computing. Does that make me a liar?
    11
  124. Almost all labor in China is forced labor, that's why what we buy is so inexpensive. We will be making everything ourselves soon since we will have lots of solar power to use to run the automated factories which will make the Chinese redundant.
    11
  125.  @AniwayasSong  I would say the government was incompetent long before this.

    11
  127. I would like to get paid $300,000 a year, I'd be worth it though.
    11
  128. Better call Sal!
    11
  129. That train has left the station years ago, you missed it.
    11
  130.  @jonaswladimir6889  The facts say yes.

  149.  @OrganicGreens  I would like to point out to all those bleeding hearts that there are many more people starving in the world outside of 1 or 2 million Gazans which is a drop in the bucket. In fact the Houthi's will kill more people by starvation than the foolish Hamas leadership ever will. Its the Iranians that need to be held to account for this, anybody want to stop them? Well?
    10
  150. Just think about have much worse it is for truckers.

  151.  @AverageJoe483  True, the export controls are being circumvented.
    10
  152. One word. Bureaucrats.
    10
  153.  @GET2222  This is my experience (along with my twin brother) as well, all the fancy expensive cars over the years never lived up to the hype, but the Tesla's do. I am 80 and not easily fooled.
    10
  154.  @G82Watts  Again an example of ignorance. I have owned more cars than most people and worked on cars all my life, I'm now 80, why would I lie? I don't give a shit what other people think. Since I shared the same passion for cars with my twin brother, I include him in my cars that I owned, like a 1969 Shelby GT350 or a 1992 Cadillac. Piss off if you don't like it. The Tesla model Y is the best car ever built.
    10
  155. We hope Ford is successful because it will advance Tesla's plan to replace ICE vehicles with electric.:goodvibes:
    9
  156. Just goes to show how stupid people get when they get on the internet.
    9
  157. Tesla efficiency shows up in that you can go so far with a 400 cc engine.
    9
  158. So you don't know about all the cobalt that is mined by children that is used to make gasoline then. 10 times that used in EV's.
    9
  159. But there were.
    9
  160. Simple solution to the problem, make it here instead of China or another country. I think we used to do that.
    9
  161. That is not exactly correct, it just takes longer.
    9
  162. Mercedes makes a very expensive fire, but obviously this one is not the cause of this one.😁 I wouldn't recommend this saltwater bath for putting out a battery fire, it is just used to short the battery out and make it inert, if the heat produced is not dissipated fast enough, you will have a problem. Battery packs would have to be tested to make sure. Nice to know that EV can survive a fire.

  163. If I were you , I'd be real, real scared.

  167. Game theory does not support your view.

  168. A while ago I talked to some good people in Watts, they are going to be pissed, I bet they are right now. They spent a lot of time and some money improving their neighborhood.

  169. Correct.

  174.  @adoral.libertucci2647  From my life experience, unusual people often can succeed where others won't because they are willing to take risks others won't besides being more intelligent. Take note that it does not take much to be above average, all people are very much alike and that should go without saying but these days it has to be mentioned. I am remarkably different than all the people I know in intellect and ability, which does not make me superior, because they have ability's I don't have, but at the same time we are all human and very much alike. Its the Bell curve.

  189. Pogo isn't mad, and he has said, "We have met the enemy and he is us".
    8
  190. Actually Tesla is trying to tie up as much battery supply as they can since their need is greater than the suppliers can produce without including any other customers.
    8
  191.  @JohnCSmith-lp1qr  BBC and others tend to cater to the apologists. "Normal" Stats show this number is over 300,000 Russians killed and 3 to 4 times that number injured compared to Ukrainians with one seventh to one tenth that number. Just use the accident triangle. Defence vs. offence and adjust for the difference in weapons and tactics. Don't forget Russia is fighting against a world supply chain that they can't win against. The West hasn't even supplied Ukraine with any "new" equipment yet, and won't until we run out of the older, but still usable equipment. When I was in SEA we used mostly old equipment against the Russians and some "new " equipment as well. Yes, there were Russians in North Vietnam operating missiles and aircraft.

  192. Not wasteful, just very efficient at stealing the peoples money.

  193. So you are saying that the world powers are so stupid that they don't know others track them?

  196. It might be a good idea to better maintain ships.

  197. Reputation; wouldn't you be embarrassed if the car you stole locked its doors and drove you to the nearest police station? 😁
    8
  198. I'm getting worried, not one mention of Elon in the last three minutes.
    8
  199. Take comfort in the fact that all other navy's are worse.

  200. There would be no Europe or Russia without America.

  202. RE catching barges after an accident seems to me to be a heroic effort on the part of all involved.

  203. It looks like at least one supplier can read the handwriting on the wall.

  204. What do you mean WWII? They haven't changed their tactics since the Tsars. (Caesar)

  212.  @ldewproductions7271  If that were true, how did they get here from China?

  214.  @deltaboy2011  What planet were they made on?

  215. Actual cost right now is negative, there is no storage left not fulled.
    8
  216.  @sitka49  For practical purposes, Elon Musk has far exceeded Howard Hughes and Thomas Edison and Henry Ford, mainly because he has more to work with, time will tell.
    8
  217. All you have to do is turn the pipeline back on has a political cost that is to high, so that won't happen. Everyone needs to think longer term, where will Russia be in ten years? Will it even exist?
    8
  218.  @manilajohn0182  You should follow Sun Tzu's advice. It would be a good idea to know what your adversary is doing, but not absolutely necessary. Never go down the rabbit trail of copying, that is a fatal mistake. Moving in the same direction is done to minimize expenses, not because it is a winning method. (And lazy to boot).
    8
  219. Here's the secret metal, magnetic Weyl semimetal (MWSM). Now its not a secret. Shh... don't tell anybody. And it does not break any laws.
    8
  220.  @joaopedrosousa5636  Yes we start with a preprogrammed brain, instinct.
    8
  221. So I was there when we used cluster munitions, not such a good idea if you leave them on the ground un-exploded.
    8
  222.  @Ajee02  Or it could be that they said that's what they are going to do
    8
  223. Considering the rebellion of the Chinese people, I don't think Tesla has any problem.

  226.  @phoenixzappa7366  What about the Vietnamese that massacred other Vietnamese on both sides, shouldn't you include them in your musings? You obviously weren't there like I was. Would you have stood there and let them shoot you?
    7
  227. Rule based since we ended WWII.
    7
  228. We didn't land on the Moon either.
    7
  229. @Kia El You have not checked the arsenals in standby in the U.S. and why we were buying back ammo. Nor what our capability actually is.
    7
  230. Yes, and much more.

  234. Look out for that hospital stay!
    7
  235.  @Monsterpala  People are the same all over, they feel it. They need to get off their asses and do something about it, which some are; most of Russia is having careless smokers lighting things on fire.

  236. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.

  237.  @ripvanwinkle2002  All day? surely you are exaggerating, but not as much as the Chinese are.
    7
  238. As are all autocrats, dictators and kleptocrats.
    7
  239. AS Thomas Edison designed and built an electric system, Tesla will do the same, it is a system, vehicle, maintenance, insurance, charging, Megapacks, powerwall, solar, compute power (services), robotics, communication, security, air-conditioning (climate control). The first ten trillion dollar company.
    7
  240. Don't invest in it.
    7
  241. They will because the human driver has proven he sucks.
    7
  242. Yep, happened to other people as well.

  243. Ever hear of the Tringle Shirtwaist fire? I thought not.

  244.  @daniellewis1789  Unless you have done it, it looks easy.

  245. I guarantee they have one that will burn well. The Chinese do make good fireworks.
    7
  246.  @clarencegreen3071  Doesn't matter, it will break. Don't stand around when they fire it off at any realistic speed.
    7
  247. Actually by systical analysis, that would be 500,000 dead and 1,500,000 wounded.
    7
  248. Five minutes is all it takes.

  249. Now there was a captain and crew that knew what they were doing and had the nerve to do it.

  250.  @youtubeoppressivecensorshi8047  Embrace how you have a lot to learn.
    7
  251. Aussies are very good at testing our defenses, good to have. Lets remember China and Russia are kleptocracies.
    7
  252. The natural course of events is hardly surprising, the more factories you have, the less one factory adds to the total.
    7
  253.  @code-dredd  I graduated in 2011 and I knew this, how can you farther expose what is plain and right in your face? It is disgusting.
    7
  254.  @Crunch_dGH  I am a retired grid operator myself, Sandy could not be more correct. At this time the grid can change to handle the changes brought about by auto charging and grid scale batteries. Until we get fusion, this is the answer.
    7
  255. Not when you are a union of 85% of the country and have badly invested the people's retirement money and are desperate for other revenue to make up the losses.
    7
  256. OK, OK we get the message, same with my two.
    7
  257.  @ticthak  Quite right, and cheap too!
    7
  258. Harkens back to the experience of actually doing, all the commenters here have no experience doing. All show and no go. I at least have lived a full life.
    7
  259.  @shracc  You really should have gotten them to fix it, it is broken.
    7
  260.  @LaJuanHughes  Let's finish this thought, electric vehicles have reduced the cost per mile to an unprecedented level. The efficiency of this truck is phenomenal. It is one of the cheapest vehicles and safest to drive ever.
    7
  261. Unfortunately there are people that think they can afford $120,000 cars.
    7
  262. This sounds reasonable, what's the problem?
    7
  263. But if manufacturing is hard, then scaling up is even harder.
    7
  264.  @lordrayden3045  No, there is simply no one to do the paperwork.
    7
  265. I like the idea of getting even with the Russians for what they did in Vietnam.
    7
  266.  @kenreckless2757  What's the difference? They still don't work.
    7
  267.  @peka2478  It's the whole thing, a complete system, to be sustainable.
    7
  268. Don't believe the nay-sayers you got a gold plated deal from the Americans who will make sure you have what you need to defend your area. Give is an appropriate word to use in this case. You got more than your moneys worth.
    7
  269.  @cvr527  Well, actually he does, I've seen the pictures.
    7
  270. No, he means his and Putin's.
    7
  271.  @Alarix246  it is even more well known that 48 Volts and other changes made by musk should have been done in 1957.
    7
  272. Me, myself and I.
    7
  273. Automatic thinking is not thinking, those that don't think will be brushed aside as always.
    7
  274. Just another click-bait video.
    7
  275. Pulling the safety plug absolutely does not remove the voltage from the battery, it just opens the circuit dividing the battery in half. As soon as you take the battery out and take it apart you have to be aware it still has voltage on it. Taking out the plug makes the rest of the car safe to work on, which is its purpose.
    7
  276. We don't call them criminals, we call them politicians that got called out.
    7
  277. That's what I do. I drive a Tesla and use Starlink.
    7
  278. It always was.
    7
  279. I'll stick with aluminum, I spent many hours sitting on the flight line in my fire truck while the F-101 came in for a landing with its magnesium wheels. A battery fire will really burn nicely with magnesium added to the fire (you can't put it out). In fact, it could take out a whole intersection in one accident. The insurance companies are really going to love this. (V.W. engine castings were magnesium).
    7
  280. Does anyone know that Tesla has software that will help prevent accidental acceleration when someone floors the accelerator? They say it has saved over 1 hundred accidental acceleration incidents in just weeks after it was deployed. As an 80 year old man, I know my Tesla's and their limitations as well as the laws and take full responsibility for my actions. I don't blame the car. I also don't trust others without checking their work as far as electrical installations go.
    7
  281. I don't think China would even be making electric cars if it wasn't for Tesla and Elon Musk.
    7
  282. If you knew what the Chinese were actually doing, you would be even more embarrassed by the Chinese.
    7
  283. There are always water issues, they lie. First come, first served. I am the retired manager of the Arizona Power Authority, Once a farmer, one of my customers, came into my office and asked me "How long do you think the drought will last?" I told him 40 years. He got up and left without a word.
    7
  284.  @marcus_ohreallyus  Now that is shortsighted!
    7
  285. That is the problem when you give so much power to one union.
    7
  286.  @teresamcpherson540  Every time one place is more attractive than another, people will move there, often bringing different ideas with them. Mexicans still look at Texas like it is part of Mexico but it was part of Spain for about 297 years and part of France for 5 years, not even mentioning that it also was a rebellious state that was not fully taken back into the United States for 34 years. It is laughable to mention others coming in when Texas has such a varied history, just who is the other, or the usurper?
    7
  287. Actually that is a reasonable, if misleading statement. I don't see any reason for Russia to do many of the things they do. But I consider them to be pretty stupid and stuck in the 18th century when we all behaved badly by todays standards.
    7
  288. Accounting error was a difference between what you paid for an item and its depreciated resale value, in other words sunk costs. Just paperwork.
    7
  289. Add to that, Americans are just better at improvising and you have a winner. We are teaching the Ukrainians. This will be the first country that will be 100% successful at breaking the old ways and setting an example for the suppressed.
    7
  290. I think all cars should have a mandatory person walking in front of them waving a red flag until people learn to drive properly.
    7
  291. No, the record is for the first powered flight under control, heaver than air plane.
    7
  292. All you have to do is raise the temp to 744 K (473 °C, 883 °F). Sure, a large piece will burn slower, but it will still burn and hot too.

  295. There are 1,004 surplus F-16's waiting to go somewhere.

  296. Your perceptions are not my perceptions, I would like to have your inside knowledge. But even better I'd like to have Elon's, which obviously, you don't have.
    6
  297. They actually are, but not these messages.
    6
  298. Russia has a problem with shutting down its oil wells, it might not even be possible to restart them. Last I heard they were flaring gas like crazy. The whole system might freeze up, not just from the cold.
    6
  299. True, who is manipulating the shares? We need to find out and put him in jail.

  300. This would be just, but they go after the big pockets.

  301.  @reesee9669  Single mothers have been raising kids since time immemorial. Change what kids are watching and playing on their computers.
    6
  302. I am most Americans, I can afford a Tesla made in Texas. I have one. So does a buddy with much less money than me.
    6
  303. You are so correct. You can place yourself in the company of Benjamín Franklin, Harry Houdini, Orson Welles, Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) and others who have felt sad about the dishonesty in the media and the gullibility of the public.
    6
  304. You would be better off to get a good contact cleaner, save a call to the fire dept.

  305. Not even close as a comparison, guess which one is much worse.

  309.  @EndtimeEnterprises  This is not a case of corruption however. It is a combination of bureaucracy and neglect.

  310. As well it should.

    6
  313. In my work with genuses over the years I have found that they tend to change their minds much faster than people with less intelligence and are willing to continue to argue until they "get it". (Understand). I'm talking about seconds to minutes compared to hours and months. Mostly seconds. One man took several months to completely change his thinking about his ability to control his emotions, I argued with him for hours. Not hard headed so much as had a lot of baggage to overcome. That was a very rewarding experience for me because he was and is a good man. Another had very wrong ideas about the world and I was able to redirect his thinking toward correct ideas and show him where he was wrong, he completely changed and went in the right direction according to reports I have gotten.This was not 100% successful however. I did not stop him from claiming credit for things others did. etc.
    6
  314. The very fact of you saying that shows why the founders did what they did.

  315.  @Writeous0ne  Give them an inch, and they will take a mile.
    6
  316. There is cast, or no cast, but there is no stamping. (With a Giga-press.)
    6
  317. Sabotage.
    6
  318. Since we waited for 60 years to fire the excess government workers I am celebrating also. Just admit that things had got out of hand and Musk and Trump are doing something about it instead of just talking. Elon has said that the laid off workers are expected to find more productive work in this economy. (Shortly to be disrupted again when the robots take over). It might give them a leg up.
    6
  319. You mean you don't like headlines like "Engineer surprised by bridge being destroyed"? I'm not a professional engineer, but I am not surprised that a 100,000 tons at 7.5 Knots took out a pylon and the bridge went down, just look at how it was constructed, no thought that it might get a hit like that.
    6
  320.  @paulcooper3611  Very, very, right.
    6
  321.  @MorpheusOne  Benjamin Franklin advocated teaching some religion even though he was agnostic. A state with no moral code is not a state.
    6
  322. The problem is the union invested badly in their members retirement trust fund and are looking for other sources of money to try to make up for it. They should be fired.
    6
  323.  @chadwassemiller3360  That was in Germany. The price of freedom (what does that mean to you?) is eternal vigilance.
    6
  324. So the solution is to actually apply capitalism. This takes some vision.
    6
  325. Why wait? If you gotta go, you gotta go.

  326. Abundance is almost free right now, so the old idea that if you get it for free it has no value to you is still true. We need to reeducate people, waste not want not.

  332. i watched a ASAF demonstration of toss bombs, ballistic guide bombs, at Poke AFB in 1966. We have used them even in WWII. One of the pilots of a B-17 that used them was a model flying buddy of mine until he recently died at 92 I believe.

  334. What happened to "The Buck Stops Here"?

  341.  @VajrahahaShunyata  Historically, Russian troops have fought badly on foreign soil.
    6
  342. Why don't all the car companies report their self driving crashes, not just Tesla? It's because they don't have any to report, they don't make any. That's what Elon opposes.
    6
  343.  @clickbait2000  You won't get very far with that approach, my father raced and crashed many cars, mostly crashed them on icy roads, and he drove small (little tiny) sports cars. He was 6 foot 4 inches tall and had to squeeze into them. He also won many prizes. I have two Teslas, a model Y and a cyber truck, they have 445 and 600 hp respectively and are by far the safest cars on the road. My wife and I know how to drive after 65 years practice.
    6
  344. But our problems were caused by foolish economic policy's, not the government stealing all the money.

  347. Yes, I remember riding around the neighborhood in my uncle's Pearce Arrow on Sundays. It was about the size of a truck.

  352. Nuclear accidents are never funny.
    6
  353. I'd call Elon's talk on Joe Rogan a tour de force.
    6
  354. Think before you act. A battery will last a long time when it is not powering the truck.
    6
  355. Stolen would be a better word. Oddly, the Russians give them up when the mothers go after them.
    6
  356. If Berlin does get bigger, Texans will just go over and add whatever it takes to make Giga Texas bigger, so it will never happen.
    6
  357.  JohnnytNatural  He took the best angle, proven by his lack of injuries. I had an incident like that happen to me with an older unlicensed driver slamming into a car stopped behind a city bus. All the uninjured passengers on the bus were complaining about back injuries. Hey, I was standing right there, he hit another car which lightly tapped the bus, they didn't even fall over. Car parts were flying all over though.
    6
  358. Elon has his own agenda, and I agree with it. Comedy is our most powerful force to affect change on the society and it needs some change. A little christian charity wouldn't hurt either.

  359. You are absolutely right, as soon as the train runs off the tracks into the river, they will fix it.

  361. Check any failure, there are always multiple reasons for them. 99% of failures are caused by people.
    6
  362. No mention of the police not getting in the way of the Tesla to bring it to a safe stop.
    6
  363.  @johnpreston5393  You are imputing your own bias on Musk, that's not a good way to understand what is going on. Musk is constrained to telling the truth, which is more than I hear from most of his detractors.
    6
  364.  @mduduzibhebhe4268  I never had my Tesla go off the road. I once had it try to go into a left turn lane at high speed when it should not have, I took over control and corrected it and put it back into FSD. Several times I did not like the direction the car was going to go and corrected it to my preference.
    6

  370. Having been interested in aviation for over 75 years, I find these stories to be depressing, few people are learning what they need to know to be safe in this modern world. It's just by chance most survive.

  375. I notice a complete lack of mention of computers, just wait until one breaks.

  376. Only trouble is you can say anything at all, where's the proof? All we have is data on Teslas.

  377. This is hardly the beginning, its been going on for a long time, at least since rapid firing guns like the Gatling Gun.

    6
  380.  @jasonbrewer6714  Actually, its not the same, Ukrainians are trying new tactics. Since they have skin in the game, they try harder.
    6
  381. Tesla is just using ideas that have been around for a while and others were to short sighted to do.
    6
  382. Of course, not an original statement..
    6
  383. As we add home solar to the grid, it unloads it during the time the sun is up, in the sunny parts of the country. This will unload the grid and it will not be necessary to spend nearly as much as some people say to strengthen the grid. In the older, more densely populated parts of the country, the grid has needed rebuilds for many years now, so get to it. It still will be much less than some people expect.
    6
  384. Keep it up, you are the best source of shipping news ever. I can see the need to over hype these ideas a little bit.

  385.  @ThatOpalGuy  A rational person only uses deadly force when necessary, in this case it wasn't.

  387. He turned his back on a dictator/kleptocrat, not the same thing.

  388. headline is clickbait.

  389. Don't forget the fuel that is burned is not at maximum efficiency, converting electric usage to fuel usage shows just how much energy is used for trucks, (which you did). We should get an increase in efficiency of 20%. That would mean saving 20% of the pollution or more and less greenhouse effects. (Very rough numbers). With solar the savings is very large.
    6
  390. It is inevitable that the market and the economy will crash, just when?
    6
  391. Google isn't messed up, just several centuries in the past, these are real things. Jiggs dinner, is a traditional meal commonly prepared and eaten on Sundays in Newfoundland. Corned beef and cabbage was the favorite meal of Jiggs, the central character in the popular, long-running comic strip Bringing Up Father by George McManus and Zeke Zekley. The Newfoundland tradition of mummering or jannying is often associated with the mummer’s parade, home visitation, music and the occasional drink! Once outlawed or you needed a license.

  392. Better add the Cybertruck to your calculations, they are making them like hot cakes. Better than 2,000 a day, 60,000 to 80,000 by end of year.

  402. Think about this, neither ship sank and one man was lost, they are emptying out the tanker right now and the cargo ship is afloat and a burned out wreak. They were going 16 knots when they hit. That is amazing! No ecological damage either.
    5
  403. Maybe we would be better off letting the Russian people decide for themselves, just like the Ukrainians. Who need all the help we can give them at the moment.
    5
  404. Been there, done that. I once walked into a BMC parts store in Phoenix, AZ and tried to order tie rod ends for my DKW (car). They said they could not get any so I asked if I could go in the back and look. I walked back to the parts bin in the back of the store and picked the part right up off the shelf and handed it to the clerk who looked very surprised. I put it on my car and it worked well for years since it was the exact same part, just a different part number. BMW instead of DKW both Auto Union.(They made the Lloyd and the Borgward as well.)
    5
  405. But now they will start losing money, should pay go down?

  406. The idea is to use off the shelf components so it can be done in a short time.

    5
  411. Sounds like you hate more than Teslas.

  412. That's fine until Sal leaves the scene, there is no one to take over. (Always look on the dark side).😁
    5
  413.  @JMurph2015  I experienced the same thing years ago at a very stogy company, they took all the new engineers and ran them through a years retraining before they ever allowed them to do any work. (And they still made mistakes). (And the colleges are still turning them out).

  427. I think they solved that false lock-on problem some time ago on the Sidewinder missile.

  432. Please note the facts; there was more than one country that guaranteed Ukraine's sovereignty Try Russia for starters..
    5
  433. Hard to tell what they did wrong, a guess is the whole thing let loose at once because the load fell level. It looked like it might have hit another container or two when it dropped. I have seen industrial accidents and I do not believe they are generally caused on purpose as some have suggested, except of course in Russia.
    5
  434. That is a common and true statement, nothing new here.

    5
  440. @@arisnotheles That's been done.

  441. Covering the roof with solar panels will reduce the load significantly. The only way to really figure it out is to do it. I would guess more than 20% of their total kWh use, but you only generate in the daytime. Don't get me wrong, an engineer can calculate, but he will only be close, there are too many variables.

  447. That is silly, have you seen the videos of the Cybertruck being tested? You sound very ignorant.

  448. There are currently over 3,500 3-bedroom houses for sale in Phoenix,AZ for under $350,000, you are dreaming or smoking something. This does not include the local area, just Phoenix.

  456. Elon is the only player with something to sell.
    5
  457. How about listening to B-52's run their 8 engines at full power for hours at a time? I had to complain to my fire chief to get them to move to the edge of the base for testing instead of right in front of the fire house.

  497. "Tesla hasn't been able to compete with them" because Tesla isn't competing with them, Tesla is helping them get it right. This seems to be a problem for many car makers. Elon has repeatedly said we need all the help we can get.

  523. No exceptions are needed when people behave rationally. That is pretty much what I would do. Many HOA's don't know what they are doing or do things that are not in the best interest's of their tenants. Just because you have one shining example does not mean many are not. I refuse to live with an HOA.

  524. I remember my father (he was a genius) working at GM Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac assembly plant, they worked you like a slave, at the time, I was 14, I told him to quit and he did, and never looked back. He had a great life.

  538.  @Pemmont107  There is no Russian army outside of Ukraine except a small peace keeping force..

  539.  @MeriLizzie  It is better not to impose on anyone, the Russian people can, if they wish, get rid of the kleptocracy if they get tired of losing all their money to them.
    4
  540.  @princesekyere9679  That's not the way it works anyway, they get the weapons, and the US contractor gets the money. Ukraine never gets the money for weapons.

  543. It was obvious to me someone was in control of both ships, maybe a little slow.
    4
  544. Before we draw the obvious conclusion, lets find out what is happening.
    4
  545. Wait a minute, they loaded the ship and sailed it to the dock without capsizing, they could have unloaded it the same way in reverse as all ships used to do.
    4
  546. Belarus was never a threat to Ukraine. They have no equipment worth talking about and never did. They are poor, very poor. Totally dependent on the Russians.
    4
  547. Yes you can, I'm first.
    4
  548. You have figured out the definition of "collapse" very nicely. Think massive attack.
    4
  549. Repairs will not fix the water problem, but it would be a good idea to fix what you could.
    4
  550. The question is, is it a good idea to shoot down something when you don't know what it is. Answer; probably not.

  552.  @dr.x4050  No, they didn't, they did not go up as much as the piece of the pie would indicate. Leaving the worker to rebel and quash the bosses and owners. The hated unions are not all wrong. (I am against unions, having been a member of the United Mine Workers).

  555. Since we are dealing with people, accidents have common traits in around 90% of cases. I am 80 years old and have been analyzing accidents since I was 10 years old. We could teach better I think. Tesla's Full Self Driving will teach us a lot because people follow each other on the road for instance. That is they do what they see others do. While we are talking about accidents, one million people get killed on the road each year in the world but no one wants to talk about that.

  556. Sounds like a good start to negotiations to me. It seems to be working.

    4
  565. More than 5 years ago, I was talking to my wife here in Phoenix,Az about getting the shipping out of LA to the east, and wondering why they didn't build the electrified second line through Tucson. Just a little short sighted in my opinion. They have been working on doubling the line for many years now.

  575.  @franko8572  Well I visited Tokyo for two weeks and it was nice, but nothing like as good as the U.S. I think its a size issue, there is not room in Japan like here. The future will bring many good changes in the U.S. We have the richest poor people in the world but they get used to being told they are poor. It is relative, be glad for what you have, in other countries it gets taken away.

  576. Estimated losses are 1/7th to 1/10th that of the Russians, we are talking hors de combat, not deaths.

  577. I worked with geniuses for years, in fact my mother and father were both geniuses, this guy is a genius and so is Elon, but I am not. But my calculus professor said I worked harder than any student he ever saw, (for a "C"). It stopped me from graduating Magna Cum Laude. But I did enjoy my 3 month internship at the 911 call center (I was a fireman in the USAF in 1965).

  581. Tesla built a factory in China for a reason, think long term, we need all the help we can get to save the planet.

  582. Herbert Diess is good for VW, if the board does not see the light, they will have to fire him and then he will go to Tesla.

  588.  @WelcomeToIslam-x5i  The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a much newer revelation, so you should join them by that standard. Islam is just an offshoot of Christianity anyway.

  589. Yes, some people lost their right arms in that fiasco.

  590. Elon is persecuted enough for being a better man than most, he does not need any more prosecution. He is investigated all the time whether he should be or not, because he is the worlds richest man.
    4
  591. As a former grid operator, the first thing I'd say is what about the transformers? Elon Musk has said the bottleneck will be having enough transformers to build out the grid, and he is correct. The stability and control of the grid is also a challenge. Consider a whip 2,200 miles long. Even longer if you attempt to go coast to coast. This has been tried before with the Texas interconnection and had bad results. Hence DC to DC ties between interconnections to transfer relatively small amounts of power. The rest of the world outside of the U.S. has just started to grapple with really long interconnections. What will happen eventually is electronically controlled solid state switching will be used to maintain stability. Tesla is ahead of most others in this area. The reason to use a grid in the first place is reliability and economies of scale, the actual price of electricity has gone down over the years and will continue to do so.

  612.  @Vostok7789  In the early 1980's I was trying to get my company to replace the Protac 580 18 bit computer the first computerized computer (1963). They wouldn't do it until years after I left. (Paper tape).

  613. Tesla made me an offer I couldn't refuse, I would never buy any other brand, ever. Best fit and finish I ever saw. Safe minimal interior. Saving money on gas at $5.00 a gallon.

  621.  @alantoon5708  That is almost correct, they are fighting this war with weapons from the next war, which will be improved by the experience in this war.

  625. You really need to get to some facts.
    4
  626.  @georgesealy4706  The law and Tesla both forbid you from not being responsible for the cars driving. How are you going to supervise the car with a blindfold on? You should not ask people to break the law and rules set up to keep you, yourself safe.

  635.  @SinisterMD  The engineers did not lie, they presented the facts in a way that demonstrated what they thought. It would be relatively easy to make a Cybertruck that would beat the paints off a Porsche while towing another, just look at how close they were and calculate what it would take.

  636. How about curse words, I get tired of hearing. I got enough of that when I worked in the mines. (That's 3,000 ft underground, not those wimpy surface mines).😁
    4
  637. This is a silly idea that has gone out of use 100 years ago, to much mass and shock force to easily overcome. Gyroscopic effect is much greater, might make the car more stable as long as it isn't turning a corner, otherwise you might tend to go straight instead of turning. Why do you think Tesla developed the motors they use? Much less un-sprung weight, much more electrical efficiency, much less parts flying off from shock.

  638. You are dreaming.

  641. The single most important point about Puerto Rico is the corruption, if that was solved the other problems could be handled better.
    4
  642. Since I know a little about negotiating here goes. The other guy has to be convinced that taking your "package" is a good deal for him. Time is not on the side of the Russians, I would not worry to much about Ukraine getting the short end of the stick in the long run. But what it looks like...

  653. I know where a large deposit of rare minerals is in the US. In fact I used to mine the stuff. The US has been working on replacements for rare earth minerals for the last 50 years, we are not stuck if the Chinese don't want to sell to us, their largest customer and they know it.

  655. How about underneath the barracks. When I worked in the mines, we kept explosives at the bottom, 3,000 feet and 1 mile and a half from the entrance.
    4
  656. The price will come out less than the competition, and I use that word loosely. The range problem is already fixed, just get the bigger battery, its not a "gimmick".

    4
  660.  @ClownCarCoup  Just as Tesla is not the entire electric vehicle system, General Motors is not the entire ICE system. Nor is the inflation reduction act the only credits EV makers get. In Tesla's case, the windfall goes to the car buyer as lower prices, in the case of GM it goes to the stockholders and management.

  661. The Chinese say many things, those that fall into the trap of believing them deserve to lose their money. (Or you could buy into the bank that holds 80 tons of fake gold). (Maybe that train has already left the station).

  669.  @YounesLayachi  You didn't get the memo; gas for the US and diesel for Europe, because you could not afford it like Americans. Sorry about all that diesel pollution though. Anyway, Benz was a European. It is a system, not just a fuel.

  678. With those new Rolls-Royce engines they won't be smoking. It is pretty hard to mess with perfection.

  679. In my experience, my Chinese professor cheated on everything he did, when confronted, he could not come up with a good explanation for what he did or why his thesis was garbage. My conclusion is you better watch out for Chinese, they know less than they should.
    4
  680.  @SpeedingTicket1  Quite correct, most channels are not even worth paying any attention to as far as the comments go. They degenerate after only two or three comments.

  681.  @JohnSchuetz-js7lk  It would have been all right if China had played by the rules.
    4
  682. Don't listen to what other people say, the insurance people don't have enough data yet to properly price EV insurance, the price will go down, that's one of the good things about Tesla insurance, although they are subrogating it to other companies. All cars are going up in repair costs, not just EV's, inflation, remember?

  685. I've always been right twice a day.
    4
  686. This should be obvious to all, bureaucrats always add more restrictions because they can.That's why we have local laws, they are closer to the action than someone in a far away city. We should come down on them hard when they step out of bounds.

  691.  @Viking88Power  I am amused by the idea that Soviet missile replacements can't be made by other people. Artillery rounds as well. Ever think about making slightly larger shells instead of replacing the barrels? Sabots?
    4
  692.  @Berretotube  That's not exactly true, Elon has given others the opportunity not to be first, so they have their asses covered. They are a bunch of scaredy cats.

  693. You still can't get over the amount of energy wasted in making H2.

  700. It looks to me like Tesla is not going to crush the competition, just teach them how to succeed. The plan is to build a new world. Sometimes you have to have creative destruction.
    4
  701. I just dismissed that video as junk, thanks for the breakdown though.
    4
  702. Just the opposite, letting the other car companies have their way will ruin any chances of saving the planet.
    4
  703. Although some expect China to learn from Tesla, myself included, they still have a long way to go. I hope they eventually succeed, but they are not there yet.

  717. Hey Electric Viking! How about looking into any ill winds that might impede the worlds switch to electric transportation? We could get ahead of the curve, if we knew of any problems that might come up that we don't know about already. This is a good place for the nay-sayers to speak up and help us out.😁

  730.  @ChristopherFynn001  You are ignoring the difference between burning coal at around 50% efficiency and burning oil at less than 12% efficiency, considering the complete cycle of energy conversion. Far more cobalt is used to produce gasoline than is used in electric car batteries. In addition where does the pollution go? Coal plants tend to be away from population centers.

  742. Just to illustrate what should have happened; If I was the captain, I would never have left the helm. If I were the 3rd mate, I would have made sure the pilot was doing his job and taken over control immediately there was a derivation from proper procedure and called the captain. And if I was the pilot I would have paid attention to my job and not, not, been using the cell phone. My experience tells me that people don't conceive the massiveness of large objects, power systems, ships, planes, trucks, trains, etc. It seems hard to impress physics on people. The recent increase in the incidence of very bad road accidents is illustrative of the tendency to push the limits because of the false feeling of safety from improved equipment. This has been noted by others. I'm 79 years old so I have learned my lessons. I was an operations supervisor on the electrical grid and experienced these things myself. Some of us sat in Phoenix and wondered what Enron thought they were doing as we watched them crash.

  746. Yes. he killed millions of good jobs in Detroit by making a safer car. (Which they could have done if the got off their asses).

  763.  @nicofish3100  So why assume? Lets just read my stats. Usage was 13 kWh average over the last 31 days. Generation was according to you, .7 x 5 x 8 = 28 kWh per day, sure looks possible to me since that's what I do. 4kW solar generates over 100% of my use without A/C. Winter gen. is only 3.4 kW though, only 21 kWh. Maybe I should clean my panels.

  764. I am still reading your book "Murder Houses", which is pretty good. I was involved in one a few years ago when the son of my backyard neighbor decided to kill his father and his family and then himself, 5 people altogether, he also burned the house. I got a ring at the door at around 2:30 AM and the police asked me if they could use the back yard. I said sure, and I would be leaving until the coast was clear. When I got back, they had damaged my fence but never compensated me for it.

  852.  @jeremyj5932  Power can get the best of all men all the time. That's why we divide up the power. (Except in the case of Elon Musk, nobody wants the power he has, it is so overwhelming). He tries to spread it around, but no ones taking the bait. (Chicken, I guess).

  883. Quite right. Thanks for the idea on fire alarms.

  884.  @TS-wh4ey  Then why are the cars moving so fast in and out of the lot? Older ones are going out and newer ones are coming in according to the people watching the lots.

I had a young acquaintance that had a girlfriend that had an identical twin sister, to me they did not look alike at all, they had entirely different personalities. I also have two friends that are identical men, but do not look like they even come from the same family, but had identical lives up until now.

  964. About 1958-59, I helped rebuild 22 Piper Cubs at Sussex, N.J. It was great fun sanding and checking for cracks and priming the metal, then pulling on the Irish linen socks, sewing and doping the fabric, one coat of nitro and two coats of Butyrate with anti-fungal and second with aluminum powder, then two coats of cub yellow. They sold for around $5,000. At 15 years old, I was not allowed to rebuild the engines though (which I could have done). I remember the owner threw away the 4 or 5 old Franklin engines and replaced them with Continentals 65 hp. Had some Lycomings too. I still build and fly R/C models, Cubs being my favorite.

  972.  @reagank.2268  No, you are not wrong. The engineers did the calculations and came out with the correct answer, just didn't give enough information for us to actually see they were correct. They will have to do the test again with better equipment (trailer) in a 1/4 mile. The Cybertruck will comfortably beat the Porsche.

  973. Its simple, take the shot or get shot.
    3
  974. True, the Russians lost in the first three days.
    3
  975. You wouldn't even notice it in Mexico.
    3
  976. That is hardly correct, NATO has been in existence for many years, and their strategy has evolved. The best way to defeat the Russians is to slowly heat them up so they don't notice they are being cooked. One general said that you had to give them an out, but this way you don't. Small groups have been used in war with success before against a larger enemy. Not presenting a large force to be attacked until the Russian cannon is exhausted is a good idea.

  977. One thing, Tesla can't sell 3 times as many cars yet because they can't make that much yet, but they will regardless of these factors and variables; the whole argument falls on its face.

  978. In 1977, no one imagined a ship this big. The infrastructure is old.

  982. Having it under wraps is not a deterrent that's why it is openly discussed. Secrets are only good for 5 years. Followers will always be behind, that is the fallacy trap just to save money.

  983.  @jukio02  What is actually happening is the people out of jobs in the cities are being forced to move to the country or go outside the country to get a job to survive.

  991. Tesla is proving you wrong, live with it.

  992. That's why Elon is running Tesla. (And Space-X, which he owns). He thinks differently than most people. I have shares in Tesla.

  993. Why waste your money?

  994. Answer: who ever has the most desire to win will, count on Americans.
    3
  995. You are very naive.
    3
  996. Yeah, I used to be the computer and operations manager at the Arizona Power Authority, mostly selling the power from the Hoover Dam. Try building one now, you will never get past the environmental studies. What do you do when you run out of water? The ROI is already taken care of so it can sit there empty, what a waste. Generation is not the first priority, water is.
    3
  997. Where did you get so smart, I seldom run across anyone from anywhere that has it nailed. You might want to add the affect drugs is having on the availability of workers and the effect from so many other countries using the dollar as their currency of choice in their economies.
    3
  998. So you don't believe in America first?
    3
  999. To be more precise, the "war" was between D.C. and A.C. Edison built the electric system on D.C. and saw A.C. as a competitor. (Which it was).

  1002. I haven't heard of any shareholders getting any profits and I own stock, where is my profit? Hint; there isn't any.
    3
  1003. I agree the real demand for electrics is hidden. It is hidden all around you. Just look at NYC and Calif. Look at Tesla sales. The problem is not a lack of demand for EV's, it is a lack of demand for the crap the big three want to sell you for high prices, including ICE cars. And that goes for all other car makers except Tesla that keeps trying to lower the price while still making a profit, (with little respect, I might add.
    3
  1004.  @illiod1  That is Hydrogen gas.
    3
  1005. Well there is some truth in that.
    3
  1006. Yes you can, but that won't solve the problem. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

  1007. My first employer, Joe Little, said when I asked him, "Why do you pay me more than all the others?" Said, "Because you work".

  1017.  @conormegaffin4934  The actual answer is none but who wants to believe that? Not the lawyers or the people suing. The law says the driver is responsible.
    3
  1018. These are not new or original ideas, people have tried to get them used before. Until someone like Tesla does it , no one will take a chance.
    3
  1019. You might have a little more faith then that. We did guarantee Ukraine's sovereignty.
    3
  1020. Just buy a new battery.
    3

  1023. @susanivy3619 Where did you get that idea?
    3
  1024. What you said is the exact reason some divorce lawyers have such a bad reputation. They egg on their customers to fight and run up their bills. I am talking from personal experience. My lawyer was actually disbarred. And the others should have been also.
    3
  1025. You could ask David about that.
    3
  1026.  @nismo2070  It would be more accurate to say he showed what they did, there are to many variables to say it was a lie.

  1036. Chinese car companies do make a profit but for whom? The CCP of course, they are a kleptocracy. All companies in China will go bankrupt as the CCP sucks all the money out of them. Then they will come looking for you.

  1037. The "expert" advice compounded the problem..

  1041.  @jonathanhiner7486  I couldn't have said better, but I could have said it with less words. Buy a Tesla.
    3
  1042.  @jonathanhiner7486  Well I own one Tesla and my experience is the same as yours, so I am fat and happy.
    3
  1043.  @Cloxxki  So what company did you start? Have you even gotten through school? I started my first business when I was ten.
    3
  1044. That's not correct, it is for increased power; walnut shells might be used to clean out engines.
    3
  1045. Now I don't want to think about spare parts since we are getting into our eighty's.
    3
  1046. It costs so much they won't even advertise the price. $4,000 compared to $1,300 for others.
    3
  1047. A Grand slam.
    3
  1048. That is the very thing that makes you a micro-manager, Elon lets his people do what they like, as long as the direction is right.
    3
  1049.  @captain1664  He has very little influence on the right, which right now is bigger.
    3
  1050. It might actually lower the price of oil in some places.
    3
  1051. Concrete is made on site but still has to be hauled to the site by train dry, remember this is Europe.
    3
  1052. No, practical vs moronic way of things. One must have the long view.

  1054. Out is the new in again.
    3
  1055. I am definitely "middle class" although I did get my BS degree in Applied Computing from ASU in 2011. Retired 23 years now. Waiting for Cyber Truck, have a model Y LR w/FSD.
    3
  1056. No, they won't. Auto-pilot is many times safer than human drivers right now. About 10 times. FSD is safer still. As numbers of cars go up, the accidents per million miles goes up as well. It is to complex to tell what is happening except by guessing. My guess is 2024.

  1058.  @wolfvale7863  They already shot out their barrels.

    3
  1060. This sounds like everyone to me.
    3
  1061.  @alexd302  That means, and is true, that the demand for EV's will not be as affected as other cars.
    3
  1062. In lower Manhattan, all cars have at least 85 dents from running into other things, mostly cars. I know because I counted them. The covers would be shredded.
    3
  1063.  @halfvolley11  The Last Supper was painted in about 1498, almost 1,500 years after Christ died on the cross. He had very little to say on the subject. It was painted by a very devout Christian.

  1066. I just said the same thing.

  1068.  @richardreid6377  Nope, that anchor didn't help, if it had caught on something it would just snap the chain. 100,000 tons is a lot of weight.

  1070. Actually, Vikings respect and appreciate intelligence, that's why they got as far as they did. The leader was always the smarter man, same here.
    3
  1071. At 24 they still don't know how to pull their pants up. For evidence of this just check when insurance rates go down for the individual. The insurance rates for an 18 year old truck driver will be enormous. The Tesla way will be the only way to solve this problem.
    3
  1072. I disagree, we need a good conspiracy theory here...

  1092.  @helgefarmer  Not true, there are over 1,000 surplus F-16's and "Worn out" ones can be used for spares. The argument is about which upgrades to give to Ukraine, in other words how to shuffle them around.

  1127. This was an interesting piece of history. I was there along with my twin brother, Jim when the bunker went up. And up it did, the pictures of the explosion are not correct, they were of other explosions somewhere else. I saw it with my own eyes and could never forget what it looked like. When it went off, I was lying in my bunk awake. The shock rocked the bunk about 6 inches (the whole barracks actually). The windows were open, so they did not blow out. I got up and ran to the window and could see across the field and through the fence, the prettiest little mushroom cloud you could ever want to see. Everything went straight up, there was practically no wind and it was warm that day. I'd estimate (good eyes) the pieces I could see went more than a mile into the air and less than 2 miles because of triangulation. I was a mile and not more than 2 miles away. I have seen other explosions before and after that one. I can say it was the biggest. It was 209 700 lb bombs equivalent, a real Broken Arrow.

  1174. Why, if people want a Cyber Truck? Unless you can't afford it, then you have to wait.
    3
  1175.  @SLee-vj4px  How many can read the handwriting on the wall?
    3
  1176. Use Occam's razor; the Corolla driver is 17, therefore he was going at an excessive speed and lost control and ran off the road, hit the embankment and bounced back into the path of the thoroughly surprised Cybertruck driver. This is why you give a 17 year old an old VW beetle as his first car. He will have an accident inside of two weeks of starting to drive.
    3
  1177.  @mnomadvfx  Please check the available facts before making such ridiculous comments.
    3
  1178. Amazing response!
    3
  1179.  @Mrbfgray  When you work with other peoples money (borrowing) they loose and you loose, if you are not responsible with the borrowed money, and it is very easy to risk other peoples money.
    3
  1180. Will the "workers" be better off without a job? Living on the dole? Calif. will cease to exist.
    3
  1181. Actually bigger bombs were made, they just were not needed because of the waste, most energy goes straight up because of atmospheric pressure.
    3
  1182. Why wouldn't steel masts be tapered? They are you know.
    3
  1183. Except in their ability to fall apart without notice.
    3
  1184. I have used maximum acceleration on my 1969 Shelby GT-350 several times to avoid idiots on the road. Yes, it was red. People seem to have respect for Teslas, and don't do as much stupid stuff around them these days. So I have not had the opportunity to use maximum acceleration on my Tesla model Y LR. There are plenty of videos of accidents because of people behaving badly however.
    3
  1185. That makes them 9 times better and growing.
    3
  1186.  @jhoughjr1  When we all are restricted to traveling in underground tubes in our electric cars this will happen; prepare to be bored, get it?
    3
  1187.  @fatalvenomX  Just throw a fire blanket on it and let it sit.
    3
  1188. Sales have reached another record with the new model. Sorta makes your statement look silly. Tesla investors like me are happy with our gains. Norway 92% electric!
    3
  1189.  @axle.student  No.
    3
  1190. Now we are cooking! perpetual motion!
    3
  1191. Minimum wage?😁
    3
  1192.  @Starlink502  Because they like our money?
    3
  1193. We already know Tesla has to build their own, no one makes what they need, they said so. Most companies have no particular vision of the possible.
    3
  1194. For safety it matters and Tesla is doing it.
    3
  1195. I definitely quit flying for a few years.
    3
  1196. What about fires, I was a fireman, I ain't afraid of no stinking fire.😁
    3
  1197. Since it was one ear, was it only half a lie?
    3
  1198.  @DZ-cm5xw  I have a stainless steel refrigerator and it does not show fingerprints, you must have an inferior model.
    3
  1199.  @jonathannumer5415  I checked and mine is thinner than that, a lot thinner. I don't think its bullet proof, but my wife won't let me try it. (Not a joke, I did check it.)
    3
  1200. The change in consumer sentiment comes about because the consumer realized he is being screwed.
    3
  1201. There are other systems than just U.S.
    3
  1202. I can add charging to my home and will.
    3
  1203. This is what happens when bureaucracy runs out of control. It happens often and they have to be slapped down. The problem is it takes so much effort and time to do so.
    3
  1204. Oct 30th 1938 to be precise, in Grover's Mill N.J.
    3
  1205. They could have made him an authorized person after the fact.
    3
  1206. I remember working in the mines; the United Mine Workers Union was just as bad.
    3
  1207.  @d3nso_  When you are starving, nothing else matters.
    3
  1208. So here's a good one. My high school records were kept in Trenton, N.J. When they converted to computer records, they got tired of putting them in the machine by hand so they burned them. In 2005 I called them up and asked for a copy so I could enter collage (ASU). The man that answered the phone was a Vietnam vet like me, retired from his job at the records library. He said, "I know what happened to your records and I will issue you a new diploma, (I had an unofficial copy). So I got a diploma saying I graduated from High School in 1974! Sort of a reverse veteran vs. bureaucrat story. Some people are better than others.
    3
  1209. Containers have been known to float for a long time.
    3
  1210.  @inciwillard991  Regulation can not stop a fire.
    3
  1211. This goes to show how vulnerable we all are.
    3
  1212. The job is tough, to tough for some.
    3
  1213. Yes, Viking, you should be ashamed of yourself taking advantage of Tesla's superior performance and other car companies miserable abysmal performance. Don't tell anybody these other companies are just out to take their investors money either.
    3
  1214. They had a very successful rather short run and now people are getting stuck with them.
    3
  1215. Well "they" are trying real hard to ignore her, as usual. "They" are also trying to ignore Elon Musk for the same reason.
    3
  1216.  @kevxsi16v  Some people just can't be pleased, they are the outliers, (or just plain liars). Try a Cybertruck.
    3
  1217.  @Chris_at_Home  Still is, your a farmer. I did the same.
    3
  1218.  @green_block  The US government required dual source, how quickly we forget.
    3
  1219. Being new to a port is not an excuse, but if you need one...
    3
  1220.  @volvo09  They may even drive off a cliff, the Devils Slide?
    3
  1221. Everyone was sitting around sucking their thumbs waiting for Tesla to do something so they could follow without anyone ridiculing them. I didn't make this up.
    3
  1222.  @haroldbenton979  A lot of force there.
    3
  1223. If you mean the scammers.
    3
  1224. True, but we are looking for something better.
    3
  1225. It doesn't take a study to gauge the effects of sound on humans. Just common sense.
    3
  1226. Caught by and hosted by their own petard?
    3
  1227.  @bernardfong1019  Yes that is a hidden way to entangle the people that can't afford to pay for the project in a way that is beneficial to the Chinese. In other words, a rip-off.
    3
  1228. @itsmeRs Read history, be careful what you wish for.
    3
  1229.  @captiannemo1587  Russia shortly will have a need for more ships.
    3
  1230. I'm breathing easier already!
    3
  1231. Ahh, but he did think it through, and you should too. Forcing people to do anything against their will is generally a bad idea, ask the Ukrainians.
    3
  1232. The standards agency's have been up to date for many years, people just don't pay attention to them. I just checked, Tesla tells people what the standards say and others likely do also, just listen. You can only recommend not force people.
    3
  1233. Fair? Fair? It's insane!
    3
  1234.  @egaskrad  These are lame ideas that have been tried and rejected, but you never know when some new thing will pop up from the garbage heap.
    3
  1235. Yeah, he is fooling himself.
    3
  1236.  @oldbloke204  Nope, Pepsi and Tesla and the government paid, there is no free lunch.
    3
  1237.  @JaKingScomez  This can't be done very effectively. They don't know how to do it.
    3
  1238. Those built in the U.S. or Germany have the same build quality or shortly will have unless they want to get fired. Mine certainly does. They used to say don't buy a car from Detroit that was built on a Monday.
    3
  1239.  @nick191088  You should check what is actually happening before you say anything. Racing mods are already happening.
    3
  1240.  @JanBruunAndersen  What are you going to do with Tesla's German factory? Don't you think Elon has thought of this eventuality?
    3
  1241. Safety is not paramount with them.
    3
  1242.  @Langhorstiness  There are three systems at least they can "use".
    3
  1243.  dallasrm1697  So you believe the U.S. is the only country in the world? It is true that the U.S. supplies the backbone.
    3
  1244. By the evidence available, yes it is unreasonable. FSD is safer than a human driver, Boeing not so much.
    3
  1245. I agree nuclear weapons are powerful, but not that powerful.I always say a 50 megaton bomb would put a hole in the ground 50 miles across.(But that is an exaggeration).
    3
  1246. Hardly obsolete, we don't complain about metric, we use both.
    3
  1247. Well I did and they don't.
    3
  1248. Please don't comment unless you have been a firefight. You simply don't know what you are talking about.
    3
  1249. If you could find one that is.
    3
  1250. Yep.
    3
  1251.  @lamar310  Yes there is, to save his life, he could have run off and died, then what would you say? I did the same thing once to save a kids life, but he listened to me and no physical force was necessary.
    3
  1252.  @michaelnichol4085  Of course not, the people on here are just talk.
    3
  1253. This is impossible, just ask the CEO of Mercedes-Benz.
    3
  1254.  @moiseshuerta3984  Yes.
    3
  1255.  @mahbriggs  The helicopter was rejected by Russia, so Sikorsky went to America.
    3
  1256.  @DocLaw172  I got tickets for being a good driver, twice.
    3
  1257. Not being a lawyer, I can say that the law would apply to all people. The parents are responsible as well as others involved. Ignorance is no excuse.
    3
  1258. Why not? Everyone else has. Why do you think he put all his stolen money in other countries?
    3
  1259. Get them truck drivers off them bennies.
    3
  1260.  @boku5192  Considering Poland's long history, I want them fighting on my side.

  1261.  @Shadow25720  Training, training.
    3
  1262. It sure beats the hell out of the "Pinta".😁
    3
  1263. Than why are they building new coal plants, one a week?
    3
  1264. Likely took these pictures months before the "Protest".
    3
  1265. And he did it with a straight face. Good job!
    3
  1266. I have heard they do that.
    3
  1267. Or transmission cost, or the change in the climate. Distributed generation is far better.
    3
  1268. Operates? operates? Without goods? without a means of exchange, except selling your children? They have nothing, nothing!
    3
  1269. It should be oblivious that the Chinese could "take advantage" of this situation by "encouraging" the Houthis to shoot at shipping to "extract" money.
    3
  1270.  @CL-gq3no  This is not true, take it from a former grid operator. Local is the way to go.(Because of losses and reliability).
    3
  1271. That's the only way to run a business. Read Karl Marx.
    3
  1272.  @scratchy996  You are basing your thinking on absolutely no factual information at all. Just because someone puts out information does not make it factual. This as all a guess.
    3
  1273.  @drkastenbrot  Relative to a charger, they are simpler. Simple for me, difficult for you.
    3
  1274.  @toddmarshall416  I wouldn't try to explain their faults, but I would bet they don't idiot proof their devices, or the design itself.
    3
  1275. Consider the religious ramifications.
    3
  1276. That's great, just buy something else and leave the good stuff for us.
    3
  1277.  @blastermanr6359  California is ruined by to many people, they use all the water from the whole southwest. Texas will be the same but they only have their own water supply.
    3
  1278.  @michaelfried3123  These are percentages, he has a better understanding than you do.
    3
  1279. But what about the weight? wouldn't you have to replace the hardware and insulator's? What about icing? What about loop limits for stability? What about transformers? Etc.
    3
  1280. No, it was part of the contract, it always is.
    3
  1281.  @marcusott2973  You could lose control of Russia while sending all your troops to Ukraine.
    3
  1282. You have lost your mind. Tesla is no worse than Ford or GM.
    3
  1283. Strike!
    3
  1284. When I was manager of a state agency, I never called for a meeting with other agencies except once, before I retired and I knew that it would not get anything done, sorry to say, Sal you are correct. Just wait and see.
    3
  1285.  @gontijomaquinas  Wow! you really jumped the gun! Let us wait while we speculate, for the facts.
    3
  1286.  @raggededge82  At least you know what you are doing.
    3
  1287. I am sorry to hear you have no money.
    3
  1288. There is always a chance, the problem is it is so small, it isn't there at all.
    3
  1289. It would be more expensive to build multi-story, employees need the exercise.
    3
  1290. They still contribute to a cleaner environment even if you use coal to generate electricity because they are much more efficient. Around 20 to 30 percent overall.
    3
  1291. You aren't talking about people with a photographic memory then, you are talking about geniuses. I grew up with two and I can tell you that they can be trained, and I have retrained several very successfully. The main problem is the intellect magnifies the emotions.
    3
  1292. Elon is hardly the first one to say these things, we have been heading in this direction since the 1930's.
    3
  1293.  @onlypranav  How would anyone know? Corruption is endemic, if you won't pay the bribe, then no business.
    3
  1294. Oh yes you can, just be persistent.
    3
  1295. Yep; still no proof. We don't even know if Aliens could be more intelligent than humans, probably not.
    3
  1296. Having been a miner, that is unlikely. Why not collect all the small pieces first? It would take many hundreds of years.
    3
  1297. Electric cars and trucks. Need I say more?
    3
  1298.  @V3rySp3d  Not if you don't know how to drive.
    3
  1299.  @wb3904  The yard, I have 3 yards of embassisment.
    3
  1300.  @eingyi2500  At least some of us have nuclear power, most don't.
    3
  1301. There you go, thinking again.
    3
  1302.  @Writeous0ne  Holy moly! Where have you been? having 600,000 starving ill-equipped solders is a sure way to have a revolution!
    3
  1303.  @Meatball2022  Put it in Bioweapon Defense Mode.
    3
  1304. Thai food is hotter.
    3
  1305. That's what you think now, just wait and see how much you change your mind 3 years from now.
    3
  1306. To bad Wilbur wasn't there to correct his error.
    3
  1307.  @robertthomas5906  No, you start by controlling how people think and then you enslave them.
    3
  1308.  @realmr-hyde  You really need somebody to tell you they love you.
    3
  1309.  @nicofish3100  I can charge both of my Tesla's on 5 kW.
    3
  1310. I disagree to some extent, Elon Musk seems to have several very successful businesses. But he took the hard way, actually being successful.
    3
  1311.  @nthannisch  You ever hear of satellites?
    3
  1312.  @icemanhunter1  Well, it would fall apart regularly.
    3
  1313.  @AutisticCuriosity  Not if you switch to laser printers and get rid of your dot-matrix.
    3
  1314. You increase your productivity by using Tesla bots.
    3
  1315. What is the definition of freedom? Electric cars will use up less resources, so free up those to others less fortunate.
    3
  1316. Ignore the facts you don't like.
    3
  1317.  @NitishYadav-lb7zc  No, there are three of them because when interconnected they became unstable and didn't work. DC to DC interties do maintain stability however.
    3
  1318. Yes, exactly.
    3
  1319. I hereby ban all ICE vehicles from my driveway. (Except my own of course).
    3
  1320. A few crazies does not a nation make.
    3
  1321.  @eplugplay8409  Really? I once drove my 1962 DKW (Auto Union) through 2 foot of water to get to work. It stalled as soon as the tail pipe was under water as expected (two stroke) and I coasted to the other side and used the starter motor to get up enough to uncover the exhaust pipe restarted the motor and drove to work. I won't be taking my Tesla model Y into any flooded washes either. But it does seem that it would drive over high waters to me. (But I am a Jesus freak).
    3
  1322. Or you could just add a heat pump. Which is what Tesla did and everyone else is copying.
    3
  1323.  @duriandurian4674  No, just more sunflowers.
    3
  1324.  @FMLPodcast  It would blow back on Russia.
    3
  1325.  @JakeBroe  Is that called the brain-drain?
    3
  1326.  @james_l4337  I guarantee that a tar road will melt and catch on fire and make plenty of smoke, so the fire dept will know where it is burning.
    3
  1327.  @robg9236  You can bet that low fuel is a problem.
    3
  1328. If getting a good captain is hard , look at the problem President Lincoln had in getting a general that would fight.
    3
  1329. Don't forget the reduction in the amount of cars on the road. And the Tesla Semi which will be the number one truck in the world. We will live to see it.
    3
  1330. Sure , but they forgot to build double rail electrified lines out of Calif. East.
    3
  1331. So that's why people keep trying to buy my 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500.
    3
  1332.  @Moraprecisionreloader These are intermediate range missiles, they get there very quickly with no chance of shooting them down by the Russians.
    3
  1333. You must be 10 years old to say such a thing.
    3
  1334. If that were true, and it most definitely isn't, we would have no trouble getting good people to run for office.
    3
  1335.  @danutavram831  You totally did not understand, start paying attention to what is said instead of wandering off on your own dream. Cheaper and longer lasting batteries will make used EV's even more of a bargain.
    3
  1336.  @robertkalinic335  If you worked on these aircraft, you would know that the F-4d was very good indeed. My twin brother worked on the F-4 and I worked on F-105's and others.
    3
  1337. They certainly didn't give me more than 10% disability for doing that, plus other injuries.
    3
  1338.  @dalejewell9916  Regardless of what others say, ignorant people express their ignorance more than more knowledgeable people do, its a confidence thing.
    3
  1339. The current code is relevant (if you have one) and has been for many years, it is just not implemented because of ignorance.
    3
  1340. In a rational world, Sam is actually, literally, right. H2, except in fusion, is a dead end.
    3
  1341. There are really only a few really smart people that will subject themselves to all the abuse of being a leader. Skipping the oblivious and leaving many out, Angela Merkel, Herbert Diess, Brandenburg Environmental Minister Axel Vogel I am sure there are others.
    2
  1342. The trouble is they are very poor engineers, they have to cheat to get ahead.
    2
  1343. Yep, stay out of this, richest country in the world.
    2
  1344.  @budgetaudiophilelife-long5461  I never listen anyway.
    2
  1345. They are to low and not going fast enough.
    2
  1346.  @homerisian  And dump the dinosaur dealerships.
    2
  1347. Although I have never seen or heard of noncompliant shipments, I have wondered how this was going knowing the tendency of Chinese and others to ignore the laws and regulations.
    2
  1348. Why would anyone be anti-police? I am anti people of all stripes abusing their power for their own gain, such as it is. Boy Scouts, Priests, Politicians and Police included.
    2
  1349.  @commiedoge747  How do you judge that?, By their writing?
    2
  1350. The Chinese do lie, don't they.

  1351.  @edvardmunch6344  Regardless of the fuel quality, ICE emissions are bad for you.

  1352. First thing to know, There is no such thing as something that will not break, nothing is perfect. (Yet.)
    2
  1353. You don't know what you can do until you try.
    2
  1354. Logistics.

  1355. You have no idea how messed up the Russians are, I find it incomprehensible, Having helped fight them in Vietnam.
    2
  1356.  @johnleeinslc  Really, a rose by any other name...
    2
  1357.  @hartfischer  You are wrong trying to change the flat earther's minds. Don't forget the high percentage of electrics in 1914-5.
    2
  1358. That was an April fools joke, who knows?😁
    2
  1359.  @calebfielding6352  The tractor didn't stop me from working at 14 years old to 17 years old, I just got a lot more done on a dairy farm. At 18 I went to work in the mines.
    2
  1360.  @calebfielding6352  The reason child labor laws were instituted was not because it was normal, but because it was a great evil.
    2
  1361. Answer; no.
    2
  1362.  @XLoaferY  No, it doesn't you sound like a person that does not have an electric car.
    2
  1363.  @bigcoolviking  NATO countries use the same shells.
    2
  1364.  @cnccarving  If you know what you are doing.
    2
  1365.  @rey1953  They probably sent what was available, replace it later, 12,000 shots from a chrome barrel is a lot more that 1,500 to 2,000 from steel. The Russians are having their shells drop out at the end of the barrel by now.
    2
  1366.  @jefflittle8913  A good idea, you have to make a product before you are allowed to buy it.
    2
  1367. BOOM! again.
    2
  1368. You would be surprised what you can get out of "storage".
    2
  1369. Since you know Elon isn't going to collapse, why would you fall for it?
    2
  1370. If you are concerned about exposure, stay away from all the 1 million watt transmitters around the city. A car radar is lost in the noise.
    2
  1371. 95 companies that won't exist in 20 years.
    2
  1372. It is very wrong to say wind and solar can't ramp, they can, just like any other generator as long as there is wind or sunlight. Batteries will store power when solar and wind can't generate. We want to use the cheapest power, that's what brings this idea about. Tesla wants to maximize efficiency on the grid, that's why they do what they do, there is no other hidden motivation other than the ones stated.
    2
  1373.  @roger9685  We have plenty of oil, and no need for any more, specially with electric cars.

  1378. The price you pay. The first powered aircraft crash investigation.
    2
  1379.  @daneaxe6465  Sounds safe to me.
    2
  1380.  @CloneDAnon  I would dispute all that you have suggested without proof.
    2
  1381. Where do you think they got this strategic thinking from?
    2
  1382. Why not a golden parachute?
    2
  1383. Click bait. Elon knows what he is doing and can be interested in many things at the same time, he is not like you and me, I can only focus on 6 things at a time. (Tested).
    2
  1384. When in Rome...
    2
  1385. They can't even march in step.
    2
  1386. The need is now, not tomorrow.
    2
  1387. It was a lot more than that.
    2
  1388.  @lukeav6097  Yes, they use resistance heating, which equals short range.
    2
  1389.  @thekoolaidmaker5103  Oh yes they are.
    2
  1390. A child can be smart or lucky; or lucky and smart. Its not that rare. Clear eyed is good.
    2
  1391.  @thomassimmer5186  For those that see, for those that don't, you might have to ignore them. I know what Elon is doing and I agree with him.
    2
  1392. The only people crying are the ones that can't afford to buy a Tesla.
    2
  1393. The grid has been operating on prime time (peak time) for over a century, it can do it and change as required, so get another whipping boy. The price of electricity will continue to come down, except in crazy places.
    2
  1394. Not with Tesla chargers and solar and batteries.
    2
  1395.  @juanmoreno6071  Waymo does not make cars, they use Jaguars at $200,000 a pop. Every Waymo employee has to drive 20 cars remotely.
    2
  1396. Good to explain the simple things so people can understand them.
    2
  1397.  @vinlata  No, I got hearing aids and I still can't hear any noises except the whine of the motor and the wind. (My wife's joints creak a little).
    2
  1398.  @Klatikita  At 81, I couldn't disagree with you more, just wait and see.
    2
  1399. Reminds me of the probably fictitious story of the first two licensed automobiles in NYC running into each other. I hope I'm not the one to run into another Cyber truck. (I am glad to be in Peoria, AZ). I did avoid a head-on crash at speeds of 35mph each, when a driver became unconscious in front of me at 43rd ave and Peoria, AZ. I decided to go left, and immediately after he passed me, he went right and hit other cars, but lightly because they also saw him coming and tried to get out of the way. If he had woke up just before he did, I would have been in a direct two car head-on crash. I was very much faster than other people when I was younger. I prefer not to do this again, so I drive a Tesla(s).

  1400.  @HeirtotheGrandDuke  Its a 2 million per year plant.
    2
  1401.  @roygardnerra450  Yes, they just might shoot.
    2
  1402.  @Hollyucinogen  What does it take to be a politician these days?
    2
  1403.  @VeroViator  Frank Luke still holds the record at 14.
    2
  1404. We suspect that to be the case, judging by the reduced numbers in action.
    2
  1405.  @emmettturner9452  It never was a problem anyway.
    2
  1406.  @michaelgarcia7120  On the contrary, being in is better than being out, especially if Russia is your constant enemy.
    2
  1407. Imagine having to replace your battery after every 40 charge cycles!
    2
  1408.  @Danger-six.  Can you compare Octobers from previous years and the average with the present or is there no correlation? How do you predict the weather? Do you know what "El Nina" is?
    2
  1409. The best advertising is free advertising. No advertising is death.😁😁

  1410.  @StevieWonder737  Hey, the regular stuff is no slouch when it comes to fungus growth either.
    2
  1411.  @ironiczombie2530  Hey! that's twice as much biofuel!😁
    2
  1412. Nice that they have an awareness of possible mistakes in commercial aviation, but the don't in general aviation. That's why so many are killed monthly in general aviation, the pilots are not trained like they are in commercial aviation. Of course all the attention paid to "drones" is another reason for the lack of attention on the part of the FAA.
    2
  1413.  @DeepDishPizza  You are talking around each other.
    2
  1414.  @Princip666  You are confused.
    2
  1415. Since I am a retired electric system operator, I have no question that the supply can keep up with the demand, this comes from people that are just looking for a problem. they point to Texas and draw whatever conclusions reinforce their predisposed conclusions. When the situation changes, different approaches are used to meet the challenges presented. Lets say that during the peak electric usage of the year some restrictions are put on charging cars for 4 hours, whats the problem? Photovoltaics and batteries will solve these problems in the short run.
    2
  1416.  @arthouston7361  Check back next year.
    2
  1417.  @arthouston7361  Think Elon time.
    2
  1418.  @larrylong9367  Come on! You are being silly, Elon is far from well rounded, if he were normal he wouldn't have gotten into all the things he is doing in the first place. I have been a problem solver all my life, worked with genus's and know what they are like, Elon is a genus, that makes him good at everything, as opposed to us normal people who are only good at some things. Sarcasm does have its place though, so I gave you a thumbs up.
    2
  1419. Nice list. Where is the C-141? I flew one over the Pacific for 2 hours in 1966.
    2
  1420. Don't you think they want to know if they can do it? Its good practice, sorta like testing the battleships after they were built to see if they could actually do the job.
    2
  1421. Neutral is not the word I would use, obliterated maybe.
    2
  1422. The rest of the world is waiting for anything they can get.
    2
  1423. Its a lot easier to understand if you follow the money, in this case, out of China to the western banks by the CCP.
    2
  1424. That's because the price will fall out of the bottom.
    2
  1425.  @miguelservetus9534  Quote,"they are only making $2,000 per car". that's how.
    2
  1426. That is a small amount of magnesium, not a big casting. Don't forget V.W. engine castings were magnesium.
    2
  1427. I am the only engineer on the Piscatakwa HO model railway.😁
    2
  1428. There is some truth to what you say, there is a smaller truth to what was said, mostly for sensationalism.
    2
  1429. Overwhelm isn't the right word.
    2
  1430. You would have more than bruises.
    2
  1431.  @Dylanhtd  Wrong, we have seen them with a Nikola badge on them.
    2
  1432. You left out the Chinese.
    2
  1433. No intro.
    2
  1434. All this sounds like free advertising to me.
    2
  1435. Its good that we don't have to depend on one man, he picked a good team, let them do their job. By some accounts it is the beast team ever picked to do the job.
    2
  1436. Can you explain how a man with little wisdom gets to manage the worlds biggest charity fund? I would suggest Warren Buffet knows what he is doing.
    2
  1437. You would have to be crazy not to use it.
    2
  1438. Electric motors have only one moving part, how complicated is that? Or are you saying that ICE cars are to complicated?
    2
  1439.  @greybeard5123  You got that wrong just look it up; it was Willie Sutton.
    2
  1440.  @DennisMerwood-xk8wp  To accelerate faster than a Lambo.
    2
  1441.  @DennisMerwood-xk8wp  Even fun at $71,000.
    2
  1442. Real combat? have you been in real combat? You don't know what you are talking about.
    2
  1443.  @yourcrazybear  They are trying to figure out how to reduce the unions power.
    2
  1444.  @mrspeigle1  But there will be, the cost is going to come down a lot on all vehicles.
    2
  1445.  @mastertrams  Just go by weight.
    2
  1446.  @MrTaxiRob  But you would have forgotten about canals.
    2
  1447. That has nothing to do with being arrogant and suffering from hubris.
    2
  1448. Its even worse in the U.S.
    2
  1449. They already did it and you don't even know!
    2
  1450. Kleptomania.
    2
  1451.  @iareid8255  You are a mixed bag. Theoretical efficiency of Carnot cycle is 50%. Automobiles are about 22%. Just build a bigger battery, Benjamin Franklin knew this and that's what he did, besides inventing or adapting the very words we use today.
    2
  1452.  @carholic-sz3qv  Waste heat is only used in some places, it was never used to the extent it could have been. One of main reasons is the remote location of the plants near the source of the fuel.
    2
  1453. MTG has several loose screws, to many to count. She may think she is right, but she is very, very wrong.
    2
  1454. That's because people think this time is different, it never is.
    2
  1455. Saudi Arabia is a temporary country that will cease to exist after their oil is not needed any more.
    2
  1456.  @juniorohene2038  An excellent idea for all the naysayers.
    2
  1457. Wouldn't you really rather buy a Tesla?
    2
  1458. Until it isn't.
    2
  1459. Yet the NTSB allows that.
    2
  1460. Enjoy your short life!
    2
  1461. You may have divined their plan, go bankrupt and start a new company without the unions.
    2
  1462. You are wrong on many fronts, please edit your comments for clarity.
    2
  1463.  @ryanclous8380  With Tesla, you always find the right charger.
    2
  1464.  @nimmha6708  Ask a discerning Vietnamese what they think, they are not so emotionally tied up and think more clearly, just like the Japanese do. (And the Philippines as well). The Napalm child ended up being a Canadian citizen.
    2
  1465. What she did was not the way a woman should treat another woman, I have actually seen a woman mistreat her "friend" because she thought she needed to keep her "in line". (She decked her).
    2
  1466. That is silly.
    2
  1467.  @davec1034  So report it.
    2
  1468. I go for the 5 star safety rating.
    2
  1469. How in the world did anyone withdraw any military ships from the Black Sea? There is no way to do it unless the Turks change their minds.
    2
  1470. I don't believe anything anyone says in regard to Russia or China, but it is fun to speculate.😁
    2
  1471. Just unload the chassis sitting in demurrage.
    2
  1472.  @taco7043  Real costs will go down, only inflation makes it look like it goes up.
    2
  1473.  @elemenop718  Ignore him, buy a Tesla.
    2
  1474.  @erebostd  I have a bridge I will sell you.
    2
  1475. I thought that's what horses were for.
    2
  1476. I worked as a radio engineer, and as my boss explained to me people don't understand statistics. We just told them we had 99% reliability and that was good. If you looked into what that means though, you would realize that isn't very good. there are 365+ days in a year, that is 8,760 hours plus. 99% would mean you were out of service for 88 hours, almost 4 days.
    2
  1477. Well at least I haven't turned mine over yet, I did turn over my 1941 Chevy pickup however.
    2
  1478. Hopefully, we will make all the money?
    2
  1479. Why waste your money?
    2
  1480. I have heard a lot of odd ideas, this is near the top of my list.
    2
  1481. They are correct, it is an ultimatum, one that everyone knew was coming. Whipsaw!
    2
  1482. Try Chamberlain, "Peace for our time" 1939.
    2
  1483. That works until there isn't enough time to stop.
    2
  1484. Yes, we still need to keep an eye on these programs, particularly the ones that feed information back into themselves, this is the quickest way to get your self into trouble. I once spent 6 months proving a rather simple reiterative program for real work in the real world. At the time no one thought it would work or remain stable.
    2
  1485. All have declined, or Tesla has just made them look so.
    2
  1486. You and 2.6 million other people. (At least try).
    2
  1487. You didn't know that?
    2
  1488. Biden is right about what happened to his uncle, he was eaten by cannibals, sharks.
    2
  1489. Yes, that is why they are in NATO, because they think NATO will hurt them. The same for all the other countries including the ones that want to join, they know NATO with the U.S. is bad for them, so they join. They must be really stupid, or maybe its all just Russian propaganda.
    2
  1490. That's not what they said, they said production was more efficient and raw materials went down.
    2
  1491. Thanks for pointing out the responsible party. Safety First!
    2
  1492. That is obviously not true, I could see that Tesla meant business and Nicola was a scam, and I am an idiot.
    2
  1493.  @dilcrawf  Because others have dropped the ball.
    2
  1494.  @sjsomething4936  Nobody likes change.
    2
  1495. Trains sabotaged, ammo dumps blown up, no tires for trucks, etc. How about food? How about gas? Diesel?
    2
  1496. The Russian was helping his comrade and himself into a better world.
    2
  1497. White is all colors.
    2
  1498.  @kevinhornbuckle  Many young people learn because they are interested in things like airplanes.
    2
  1499. They were secretive because they knew how people are, like you.
    2
  1500. Well if you had any money you should seriously consider what your life is worth. Tesla is the safest car in the world with the highest safety score ever.
    2
  1501. That's not funny.
    2
  1502. Cluster bombs are not banned because they are effective, they are banned because they don't go off when they should and sit around for an unsuspecting person to disturb them or pick them up, causing loss of life and limb after the fact.
    2
  1503.  @magicmaniac9637  Your "facts" don't stand up to scrutiny, try harder.
    2
  1504.  @thambu19  Now your getting to the real problem!
    2
  1505.  @keny5639  That's called inflation.
    2
  1506. An all out assault was never in the cards, to bad amateur tacticians don't know anything. The thing is not to present to big a target, forcing battle on a wide front that the Russians can't handle. Attrition, remember?
    2
  1507. Forced to be done really, who is going to buy anything from China?
    2
  1508. If you are buying a car for your grandmother, you should buy a Tesla, unless you want to collect your inheritance sooner.
    2
  1509.  @ericogden4589  Don't worry, they will sort themselves out. 300=3.
    2
  1510. Only action gets results, not talk.
    2
  1511. If they could regain control they wouldn't have lost it in the first place. Its a facade.
    2
  1512.  @Chainyanker007  I'm not a rocket engineer, my specialty is computer science and I could and do, flip the screen. (but its hard to read, even though I am left-handed).😁😁
    2
  1513. A recent news report showed American tanks (they said) "captured" by the Taliban. They were Humvees. I repeat; It's just words. There is no truth to other people being able to use sophisticated equipment without parts and know-how. So if they use it, they have parts and know-how (and luck).
    2
  1514. You are a dollar and a day short, catch up.
    2
  1515.  @hemendraravi4787  According to the North Vietnamese generals, yes.
    2
  1516.  @mertanos  I don't think we will see, maybe feel, taste or smell.
    2
  1517.  @miketaylor5212  Well, they walked over to the neighbors.
    2
  1518. Asian culture is a little backward, like 200 years, but in Thailand maybe 100 years.
    2
  1519.  @RogerioCosta1.0  Changing the tires might make the stopping distance shorter. Changing the air pressure might help.
    2
  1520.  @eugeniustheodidactus8890  Yes, I don't believe in free speech. (Unless you agree with me).
    2
  1521. Honda, a day late and a dollar short. Rest in peace.
    2
  1522. Interesting lopsided view of life.
    2
  1523. A 71 year GM fan, I now own a model Y and a Cybertruck.
    2
  1524.  @IamGoen  But that does not explain how the idea is corrupted.
    2
  1525. Do you have any specific examples?
    2
  1526. Don't bother, they already sunk.
    2
  1527.  @lexusls  Everyone is switching to Tesla chargers.
    2
  1528.  @fgregerfeaxcwfeffece  There is literally nothing to hide.
    2
  1529.  @fgregerfeaxcwfeffece  Have you heard of Samuel Colt? How about patents?
    2
  1530. I think the whole thing about Tucker Carlson is a waste of your time.
    2
  1531.  @_PatrickO  Bankruptcy.
    2
  1532. Why bother with anything like that? Just go for the jugular. How about an old BOMARC or Regulus?
    2
  1533. Trained troops fighting on their home turf tend to have high morale.
    2
  1534. You must be from Missouri.
    2
  1535. True enough, but the trend in car pricing is down because of Tesla. (There are many other factors of course).
    2
  1536. That is just not true, it is the only one that will be left standing because of the total system cost, life cycle.
    2
  1537.  @FutureAzA  Not so ridiculous, lets try it.
    2
  1538. The best advertising is free advertising.
    2
  1539. I have one in a box, it has a 42" wingspan. I wouldn't sell it for less than $600.
    2
  1540. I was thinking 800, not 1,000 volts.😀
    2
  1541. That's how Toyota made money, now they won't.
    2
  1542. Copper is all over, lithium is one of the most abundant elements, what else are you worried about?
    2
  1543. The plants shown in some of pictures were coal burning.
    2
  1544. Thank you, it does make the wait shorter.
    2
  1545. I assumed this and can't understand why others can't see the facts.
    2
  1546. Although you held back a little, I think you got this commentary on the social scene entirely correct, at 80 years old I like his videos and see all the negative things about them but they do seem to teach kindness and respect for other people. All the programs seem to fade out after a few years, so he will fade away as you said. I will say he had a good run. The least common denominator will get you every time.
    2
  1547. A slight difference in philosophy, between 17th century and today.
    2
  1548. Now you know that anyone that builds excessively will fail, sell your BYD stock!
    2
  1549. The battery generates heat. In the case of the Bolt, plenty of it.
    2
  1550. If we were all honest people, the world would be a better place. I would never run for office.
    2
  1551. Looks like this was hashed out without telling you and me what is going on. I expect this is a temporary measure until the world situation gets smoothed out.
    2
  1552.  @arseliopereira2541  Just have a person walk in front of the car with a red flag, problem solved. (They used to do that you know).
    2
  1553. The little guy does occasionally still count.
    2
  1554.  @jonreed5431  What is a mostly reasonable approach doing in this swamp?
    2
  1555. Try a Ford model "T"
    2
  1556.  @YouDonkeyfu  That is very easy to debunk; "The best part is the least part".
    2
  1557. I gave up on my first million, and am working on my second.
    2
  1558.  @johnross6314  The chargers are broke much of the time. Buy a Tesla.
    2
  1559.  @КонстантинБеляев-я3м  If A 50 had been shot down over the Sea of ​​Azov, then the rescue services of the Navy and aviation would already be above the crash site... the maximum depth of the Sea of ​​Azov is 16 meters, the average is 7 meters, the tail would be sticking out of the water.
    2
  1560. A good amount of "accidents" are people throwing "sabots" into the machinery.
    2
  1561.  @nadalhector2148  What good is it to die sane from exhaust gasses?
    2
  1562.  @JohnCap523  I don't buy at Best Buy.
    2
  1563. You have invented a new word, fiscussed; meaning a discussion with fists.😁
    2
  1564.  @InterWebGuy99  The way to conquer our instincts is to accept them as part of being human, and stop denying what we are.
    2
  1565. symbiotic life has an advantage.
    2
  1566. Conspiracy theories always sound like a stupid idea to me.
    2
  1567.  @Steve_Just_Steve  Sure they do, you just look funny. (get it?).
    2
  1568.  @mrAhollandjr  The reality is quite the opposite, you have to have a certain amount of ability to be a pilot, I have seen people of all races that were not pilot material. They will crash and eliminate the problem along with other people.
    2
  1569.  @gram8821  This is fiction, but the reality is worse and it isn't skin color or sex that is the problem.
    2
  1570. The first thing to remember is that there is no such thing as bad publicity, there is only publicity, good or bad does not matter. The best publicity is free publicity. I think Elon has a handle on that. The so called news people have an addiction to Elon and give him all the publicity he could want for free! Controversy is the factor that is most interesting to people. Don't get sucked into this.
    2
  1571.  @richierich252  I have seen windmills on a large scale with my own eyes, what are you talking about? Maintenance is definitely a problem, no one wants to go out and fix them.
    2
  1572. Sam and a couple of other You Tubers are learning and getting more sophisticated every day, good to see.
    2
  1573.  @Ozgrade3  I think I trust the Aussies more than the Chinese.😁😁
    2
  1574.  @optimisticfuture6808  You do realize that renewables are cheaper? The Tesla Semi truck?
    2
  1575.  @perkunast9680  Really? Check again.
    2
  1576. So you don't know the first thing about how to be an executive, how would you run a company? Don't these children learn valuable lessons about life? There are two sides to any question.
    2
  1577.  @FinianLohbar  Pretending the U.S. isn't in the fight might be a good strategy to win.
    2
  1578. Get Tesla insurance.
    2
  1579. Inevitable.
    2
  1580. They forgot to mention battery storage. (Mega-packs). Probably on purpose.
    2
  1581. I wouldn't pay much attention to this.
    2
  1582. Well, as one who knows more than those that talk about Amazon like they know what they are saying, I know because my younger son works there. It is not worse than any other place to work. I worked for the state, is that better? The answer is no, they are both bureaucracies.
    2

  1585. You need to get your eyes checked, the Tesla is obviously sharper. (Think about it).
    2
  1586. There is no steering column. It will be easy to change over. No clearance problem, nothing need be moved except the control and power wires to the steering motor and the steering wheel. Plus the pedals, another easy move. You could flip some things around on the screen if you wanted.

  1587.  @bobholland9924  You are in a different world, so no comment can be made.

  1588.  @TitanMethos  Because the captain was asleep?

  1589.  @Scarred4life420  Can you show a part that isn't? There is no reason to think it is not true, if you follow it , it works.

  1592. From all accounts Elon likes his workers and treats them very well indeed. I could use some of that dog shit treatment; better than my father got from General Motors
    2
  1593. Yes, there has always been an actual person connected to that voice.😁

  1594.  @kingdommusic5456  Well you might be correct, but no one has been yet.

  1595.  @azbestusa8107  I don't agree, but you could always eliminate yourself if you believe that.😁

  1596.  @stevetodd7383  Is the California DC interconnection international? Celilo to Sylmar. Perhaps you mean frequency stability is the reason? series impedance is the primary culprit against HF.

  1597.  @RT-mv7df  I get you, even if others don't.

  1598. No one ever wins a war, except in Africa where they kill all the enemy and take what they had. genocide. (well that is not exactly winning either is it.)
    2
  1599.  @alpyki2588  You have a point. Get the people to spend more money with higher taxes.
    2
  1600. My son told me he could not think like me, like an engineer. I told him he was not correct. He now can put both ways together (that is the theoretical and the practical) and figure things out with the correct answer much better or the same as myself, even though he is a genius and I am not. (But my mother and father were). Geniuses can be a pain sometimes when they get off course, which is often, (to emotional). I am extremely level headed.
    2
  1601.  @dw309  This is the truth, the fake news is we don't have any problems.
    2
  1602. That's not what was said and is not the case, it seems that is true, but it is not, because it is a civil case most of the time.
    2
  1603. No, they haven't they have been slacking off and now have to make it up. (The spending on defense).
    2
  1604. Showing the way is not unethical, but can be seen by the "victim" as detrimental. If you want to make fast progress, you have to break some impediments.

  1605. Even docked she would not have a chance.
    2
  1606. Why wouldn't you do the same for an ICE car? Over 1,500 mpg is the current record for an ICE car. I don't mean the PAC-car that gets 14,500 mpg.

  1607. There are no standards in war.

  1609. Pay higher wages, until there aren't any jobs any more.

  1610. VW and the German government, pulled the largest fraud ever on the German people back in the 30's so they have a long history indeed of not giving the customer what he thought he was going to get.
    2
  1611. That's a nice idea. But I'm 78 years old.
    2
  1612. I had to watch it twice, it was so good.
    2
  1613. The true figure for the cost of the "war" has to be calculated by subtracting what we would have spent anyway from the "cost" of the war. Don't forget the people that died in that calculation. The government always wastes money because it is very inefficient. Any country that wants money has to say, Don't worry the American people will pay and they can afford it. And we will get rich off them.

  1614. Yes.

  1626.  @Writeous0ne  Where do you get your ideas from? Trump is a dim favorite among his group of supporters and is disliked by all the Democrats and most of the independants. I am a Republican and wish I could vote for Trump.

    2
  1634.  @KarlReimerGodt  Or you could just fill in the channel and not allow ships in.
    2
  1635. Why doesn't Ford use common parts from the 1908 Fritchle electric Made in Denver, Colorado, then they would not have to design new ones and would not have to pay anyone else for their designs?
    2
  1636. Yes, its just like a car tire, all fastened together. (Hint).

    2
  1639.  @WayneBain  Carvana does store excess cars and trucks at their lots, I go down and check on them once in a while. It is mostly a nearby dealer that doesn't have any room left because they can't sell their ICE cars and trucks.

  1642.  @HeortirtheWoodwarden  What?! You actually understand the discussion? You are rare indeed!
    2
  1643. I doubt that they are doing this, they are trying to lower the price, not raise it.
    2
  1644. This is hard to understand; are you saying at a certain point more EV's are being counted than ICE cars?
    2
  1645. They sell gold that doesn't exist as well.

    2
  1649.  @user-ph2jg8zx9m  So you used a battery that was not even out yet for 20 years?

  1658. There are lots of people like that.
    2
  1659. Pretty obviously you are insulated from my part of the world, besides working from 10 years old with my own business repairing radios, I worked on farms and so did my twin brother. When I got out of the USAF, Besides my regular job as a radio engineer with APS, I worked part time at the Byte shop in Tempe, AZ. They had a 9 year old in the store that was teaching all the businessmen how to program BASIC to run their business while I repaired the messes people made in trying to build and repair their own computers. I once repaired 250 Apple II's. I was in my 20's with a wife and boy.

    2
  1675. You are 100% wrong about that, major roads are built to carry 80 ton tanks on a transporter. Roughly 135 tons. That's why it takes 10 to 20 years for 40 ton trucks to tear up a major road (Like the N.J. Turnpike). There are special road use vehicles that weigh that much, usually restricted to 35 MPH. There is a max weight per axle limit.

  1694. What is your definition of "on purpose"? A mistake like that will always lead to the same result, so it is "on purpose". The guy that did it did not know the result, so it was "accidental".

    2
  1698. This is not a good idea, you need to standardize. That is pretty much what they do from Maine to Florida. I used to go and see the new firetrucks at the Mack factory in Plainfield, N.J. Apparently, they were not made there.
    2
  1699. Tesla will turn them out in 45 seconds, not ten hours.
    2
  1700. When I was in the USAF, I don't remember ever using anything but 2 1/2 in hoses for anything, but we were young and strong. Almost all could still stand when getting hit by a 2 1/2 in hose at 50 foot away full pressure, full suit, no hitting on the head. We were trying to knock them over. Don't try this at home!
    2
  1701. Its the people behind Walker that are the problem, they are using him. Remember, you can fool some of the people all the time and you can fool all the people some of the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time.
    2
  1702. True, Nuclear power is needed, but wind and solar will be cheaper, just not reliable enough yet, especially without batteries. The real problem is ICE cars.
    2
  1703.  @sonnytopboy4975  The new world order is that idiots die.
    2
  1704. It will take considerably more than just shade structures. Tesla will do what makes them money. GM and SunPower seem to think they can copy Tesla, maybe they can.

    2
  1717. You need an imagination.
    2
  1718. Actually, real information shows what state Russia is in, and it isn't pretty. Propaganda is not useful when the other side has facts.
    2
  1719. Well, you have a low opinion of Elon. Consider the position for a minute, do you want the job? Elon works on facts , not emotions, we all have emotions that influence our thinking, but could you afford to let an annoyance lose you millions of dollars? How do you control one of the worlds largest companies?

  1723.  @christianlibertarian5488  But it amounts to the same thing, mistakes were made.

  1724.  @PodcastOnTheSpectrum  Quite correct, that's why the Chinese have such poor engineers and scientists.

  1730. Hey its just like my Cyber truck!😁

  1735. They are available and have been for some time. I bought one for my Tesla just for the hell of it and my son bought one for his VW ID4. So they go both ways.
    2
  1736. I will try to explain Elon's simple idea to you. For many years now it has been possible to make application specific hardware (ASIC) that was much faster then general purpose computer chips, (general knowledge). The only way to solve a problem like this that has only one Known solution (us) is to make a machine that teaches itself. You will not know how it solved the problem initially, but in time can figure it out after the machine does the work. Simple, just feed it enough of the right information. That's the way we learn and that is why it is the only known solution. I have studied the driving safety problem for many years. There are three parts to the general solution; the road, the car and the driver. The road has been made much safer and the car has been made much safer, but the driver has not. In fact people go faster when you fix the other two parts of the system because of the perception of safety. Elon has attacked the remaining problem which is us. This is the most serious problem that can be solved by engineering and why so many bright people want to work on it. Keep it simple, stupid (KISS). I only wrote this because of your excellent videos.

  1737.  @07wrxtr1  What do you mean, it never did.
    2
  1738.  @Steve-ev6vx  Recheck your numbers, check how crime has gone down as the people get richer. The fentanyl problem will solve itself in at least two ways, Mexico is going to get tired of it and do something and people that use it will all die, assuming we do nothing, which is not the case. Throwing money at a problem does harm, not good. Inflation and housing costs are going down .
    2
  1739. By a long way, apparently.
    2
  1740. I once told a "colored" joke to a prejudiced southerner (my boss); he didn't get it.
    2
  1741. People forget; There is no such thing as bad publicity, there is no good publicity, there is only publicity. the best publicity is free publicity. No publicity is death. You can fool all the people some of the time and you can fool some of the people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time.😁
    2
  1742. Glad to hear at least some people have a brain.
    2
  1743. Best of luck, you'll need it.
    2
  1744.  @Dan-gs3kg  Electric cars have never been more difficult to service then ICE, where did you get that idea? Did you ever hear of ICE powered washing machines? Where did they go to? Oh yeah, they were replaced by electric motors along with everything else that could be changed over.😁
    2
  1745.  @MrJC1  That's not the kind of missile we are talking about. These are old 1980's cruse missiles that have no use except to shoot them at random targets just for practice, the nukes have long since been taken out if they were there in the missile, which is unlikely.
    2
  1746. I was there in South-East Asia in 1966-7, The Russian SAM operators were very mad at us (Wild Weasels) because they had a hard time shooting down anything. But they did enough damage with a less than 9% kill rate.
    2
  1747.  @dishonoredundead  There you go, spoiling all the fun with facts, (very obvious facts).😒

  1751. This has always been true, where's the surprize? How else do you look into the mysteries of time and space?
    2
  1752. In reference to people using nicknames; I once had a friend when I was in the USAF named Captain Frank Mock and he referred to his children as Mock 1,Mock 2 and Mock 3.
    2
  1753. You are correct about the pricing, that happened back in 2000 here in Arizona when they tried to incentivize clean air vehicles as well. It might be better for the government to stay out of such schemes.
    2
  1754.  @AmericatheBeautiful-p4z  That IS the babble belt.

  1757.  @goddessoftruth  I left in 1963, so I haven't been there for 58 years. When I left, people had just started locking their doors.

  1759. The metals may be valuable, but the price will go down when all that wealth is brought back to earth.

  1760. Its not necessary to use these rockets against the Russians, they self destruct with smoke generators due to their fear of HIMARS.

  1761.  @gsy971  That's odd, I see bicycle paths all over, not that they are used much. Its a safety issue. What we need is more police.

  1767. Where did they get these pictures so fast after the air strikes? It looks fake to me.
    2
  1768. Any socket will become loose over time, if you check it regularly, it would work but people don't do this. You have to take it apart and tighten the connections, I also use contact cleaner. Checks for voltage drop and thermal imaging might be beyond most people, but are easy to do and make it much safer. I check my house and wiring every so often and tighten connections that need it. I used to have a house with aluminum wiring.
    2
  1769.  @factchecker6674  Or the more common; click bait.
    2
  1770. How do you account for the fact that half the people that could work are out of work right now?
    2
  1771. Definitely a stupid idea, nothing more needs to be said.
    2
  1772. Well; maybe...

  1773.  @keres993  I remember when someone broke a jar of 10 lbs of Mercury in our high school lab in Sussex, N.J. Just about the whole school was contaminated, but nobody ever did anything about it.
    2
  1774. I have stayed out of debit and now wish I would have gotten as much debit as possible so I could do what the auto companies are doing; borrowing as much as possible and then going bankrupt. Not the first time someone has tried this, the Germans did it in the 1930's.

  1775. Looking at just the report, there was no problem with the ships design, just the operating of it. You can see that it is stable just with the eye alone. (If you know what you are looking at).
    2
  1776. That's about it.
    2
  1777.  @manishdyall4779  You ain't seen nottin yet.
    2
  1778.  @DrPonner  You are not among the people that want a better world, I can tell sour grapes when I see them.
    2
  1779.  @Priestofgoddess  Yes, you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs.
    2
  1780.  @SabastianMoran  Thank God for American and American-Indian backbone.
    2
  1781. Who pays for the waste that goes up in the air?
    2
  1782.  @onehitpick9758  Beam me up, Scotty.
    2
  1783. When Texas sees how much money they are losing, they will change their minds. You simply buy from another state, there are 49 others.
    2
  1784.  @smudgysmudges8087  Don't give them any ideas until I have my Cyber Truck.
    2
  1785.  @xxPhoenixX-sg9tr  This is actually likely.
    2
  1786. There is no truth in you repeating what the paid trolls say.
    2
  1787.  @dotnet97  Neither can afford it.
    2
  1788.  @Coyote27981  I think you don't get the full picture. No one would work on stealth if it didn't work.
    2
  1789. No, you don't.
    2
  1790. Maybe up your alley?
    2
  1791. If that were true, the world would be in deep doodoo, America is the spine of the free world.
    2
  1792. Your use belies your statement of what you would keep.
    2
  1793.  @J.Young808  Wow! I'm paying $.04 per kW at home, avg $.28 on road.
    2
  1794.  @rc51bigdaddy  I'm retired too, waiting for my Cybertruck.
    2
  1795. You and I live in different worlds.
    2
  1796. Watch out for your mind also.
    2
  1797. Releasing him probably is not a good idea, ever.
    2
  1798. You are not the only one that thinks that way. I speculate that Tesla will succeed. I put my money where my mouth is.
    2
  1799. Just buy a Tesla.
    2
  1800.  @alberthenriette8976  I didn't think that before, but now I do.
    2
  1801. I have read my resistance many times and every time I come up against a pack of dogs like cosmetology. (I can't say their real name). I avoid all use of restrictive devices, both mental and physical because it is against my religion.😁😁
    2
  1802.  @ethancoster1324  This is actually true, they don't have the wherewithal.
    2
  1803. I'm taking my slice.
    2
  1804. About eighty percent to ninety percent behind the scenes. (Or more).
    2
  1805.  @wayneegli8379  In my 5 years of college with many police officers we all took the same courses (mostly). I would say getting a degree was adequate plus all the other training.
    2
  1806. The Wright airplanes can be copied by anyone and have been, they fly well in their original form without any modern modifications.
    2
  1807. VW is just the poster child.
    2
  1808. The real problem is the CCP has lost its mandate from heaven and so must leave.
    2
  1809. Better look out for the fanatics.
    2
  1810. Just fill them with concrete.😁
    2
  1811.  @eduwino151  Considering their working percentage, not so old.
    2
  1812. I thought everyone knew not to fly with an Egyptian pilot.
    2
  1813. That would be CSS3XY.
    2
  1814. Slowly, slowly.
    2
  1815. No explanation is necessary, they have a different purpose. (To take the money out of your pocket and put it in their pocket). Tesla's purpose is to save the world.
    2
  1816.  @billwhoever2830  I don't understand your economics, it doesn't matter what size you make if it doesn't work or if no one wants it or doesn't want to pay the price. Madly building without a plan, which is what many tend to do, will not get you to the desired result.
    2
  1817. There is no "code" to crack, we already have Fusion, we just need to engineer a small piece of it.
    2
  1818.  @michaeldougherty6036  Logistics is the key, it takes time.
    2
  1819.  @CyberBeep_kenshi  I will bet they will do it with less.
    2
  1820.  @salyluz6535  And strengthening the F-16 landing gear, which is even more important.
    2
  1821. This is a misleading headline, these things have been used since before there were B-52's.
    2
  1822. It is not scary, it will shorten your life and all who experienced it, including me.
    2
  1823. You know nothing about coal plant efficiency, or you wouldn't say such rubbish. Coal plant efficiency cannot go over the theoretical maximum of 50%. Gains would be in the 0.2 percent range. In China probably less efficiency, not more.
    2
  1824.  @JD-xk4yc  Good summation.
    2
  1825.  @GizzyDillespee  DIY.
    2
  1826. "Taxes."
    2
  1827. Torque is not the problem here, it is battery use.
    2
  1828.  @jimlovesgina  Boom!
    2
  1829. I want to see robots building robots.
    2
  1830. You could add a little ridicule in there too.😁
    2
  1831.  @DistinctiveBlend  Elon holds no patents on any of these things.
    2
  1832.  @themonsterunderyourbed9408  Please don't fly in anything larger than a Piper Cub.
    2
  1833.  @dianapennepacker6854  Because they are Luddites.
    2
  1834.  @Voltaje_YT  I have told a lot of jokes about yokes.
    2
  1835. If you need an excuse, any excuse will do.
    2
  1836.  @CMB21497  Opps! I forgot to read history, sorry! Or maybe lets just rewrite history to suit ourselves, facts don't matter.
    2
  1837. It went sideways but did not go bad, that would have been if they hit something.
    2
  1838. Far from the nastiest, poison gas, biological, etc.
    2
  1839.  @klau25  Why isn't everyone driving at the speed limit?
    2
  1840.  @RenlangRen  Cost less too.
    2
  1841. Since the enemy buys the goods, they would be cutting off their nose to spite their faces.
    2
  1842. One point, these cars will not be driven very many miles, 50,000 mile warranty may be enough. Two years? I'd give 10.
    2
  1843. You really need to take an engineering degree. How can a little tiny 48 volt battery have anything to do with it? Houses have to be retro-fitted with equipment to do anything at all. I put 4 kw solar on (and 48 Amp. charging by myself).
    2
  1844. I think I see a potential source of used batteries.
    2
  1845. Tesla's lead is only at risk if they all stop work and go home.
    2
  1846. The engineering calculations show you are wrong. Figures don't lie, but liars figure.😁😁
    2
  1847. What can I say?
    2
  1848.  @brujua7  There is plenty of documentation, and I even got access to it.
    2
  1849. From the Russian side it looks like hell.
    2
  1850. In time, all sales drop, just imagine what Tesla branding would do for sagging sales.
    2
  1851. That's because you don't run through water very often.😁
    2
  1852. After the fire is out, out, out, I would do it myself and I'm not EOD. Easy-peasy, that thing isn't going off any time soon after what it just did. Besides I (and many others) survived 204 H-bombs going off at once in San Antonio, Texas (just the 700 lbs each of TNT). You can read about it in the history books (or on line). It made the prettiest little mushroom cloud you would ever want to see. As opposed to the official story.
    2
  1853. It looks like it hit at 7.5 Knots...
    2
  1854. Just a note; Russian gas is not liquefied, the LNG is used to replace the Russian gas from the pipeline.
    2
  1855. What would the UK need more range for?
    2
  1856.  @jmanke6057  Newer designs seem to be designed to fail.
    2
  1857. To be more precise, about 100,000 tons at 7.5 Knots.
    2
  1858. Wouldn't you really rather have a Tesla...with the rebate? (Instead of another car without the rebate?).
    2
  1859. It will, it is just a matter of time. We have bigger fish to fry.
    2
  1860. Making gasoline costs energy, they use a lot and don't pay the cost of the pollution.
    2
  1861.  @morphelan  You miss-spoke as far as the Hoover Dam is concerned, no water equals no power, start reading more. Show me anything new that hasn't been done before.
    2
  1862.  @artmallory970  Plainly not true. Back in 2011, when I graduated from college, it seemed half of my class was made up of Phoenix police officers getting their degrees.
    2
  1863. Good enforcement has its effect.
    2
  1864.  @pansepot1490  Now where are we going to find an intelligent, discerning person to perform that task for the pittance it would pay? A.I.?
    2
  1865. Sales of what is going to explode? Teslas? Yes; anything else? not so much.
    2
  1866.  @wngimageanddesign9546  2024.
    2
  1867.  @ilan8331  Give me all your money.
    2
  1868. Officially or unofficially?
    2
  1869.  @FutureAzA  What "facts"?
    2
  1870.  @safffff1000  What you just said does not mean a thing, can you explain?
    2
  1871.  @BP-vr3rt  My indicators say everything is going down in price.
    2
  1872. “When the going gets tough, the tough get going” and they get smarter and leaner at the same time.
    2
  1873. That is a fools errand, you will be assimilated.
    2
  1874.  @h0gheadS  Last I heard profits were going up, up, up.
    2
  1875.  @totalnerd5674  You mean they ran out of oxygen?
    2
  1876. Why not make them now that the ICE car market has collapsed? Oh, I see you are being sarcastic.
    2
  1877. That is actually unlikely, the neighborhood has spent time and money trying to clean it up.
    2
  1878. "Better call Sal!".
    2
  1879. Not dumb, just self-serving.
    2
  1880. Why bother to change the oil? Just throw it away when it breaks and buy a Tesla, which will go 300,000 miles at least. Save your money.
    2
  1881. The inevitable result is printing more money more than the increase in the wealth in goods, that's the trap.
    2
  1882. I didn't hear of this before, I will recommend it to my city council.
    2
  1883. Ok, you pushed my buttons again. The Chinese and the Russian governments are Kleptocracies. They are in business to take the peoples money. They have have run out of victims that they can easily steal from and are looking for other victims to rob, like Ukraine and Tiawain. Plain and simple.
    2
  1884. Yes you can, free speech remember? I can criticize people all over, but why?
    2
  1885. This is true of all products, just ask Elon.
    2
  1886.  OPENYOUREYES ANDWAKEUP  Way to late.
    2
  1887. Someone suggested that the Wagner group has their own agenda, they get paid according to the territory they take.
    2
  1888. I have gotten the epoxy off by simply heating it. Everything simply falls apart.
    2
  1889. You mean the naysayers don't know this? Really?
    2
  1890.  @tomdurkin9859  Boy are you an optimist, I hope you are right.
    2
  1891. This is a little short-sighted since Tesla is an international company. All the government money in the world won't make people see or not see the value in Tesla.
    2
  1892.  @sylvia8112  People don't seem to realize that the only way out is to crash, just when?
    2
  1893. No, they have and are using the same type of shell.
    2
  1894. What did you expect? It is just a ploy to get the Russians in the position they are in, they now have to surrender to Ukraine. Which they will do, declaring victory pushing Ukraine out of Russia.
    2
  1895.  @PW060284  You can't see what you can't see.
    2
  1896. That's not her job, her job is to get reelected, she has done her work and now should retire.
    2
  1897.  @wgowshipping  Duh, I forgot to read it.
    2
  1898. Naphtha evaporates. Not a disaster.
    2
  1899. Rules are passed after the fact.
    2
  1900. You would not say that if you were a firefighter, fires are dangerous, they can kill you. We practiced on gasoline fires.
    2
  1901. According to the stats, safer than all the drivers out there, but that kills all the fun of ranting about it. Please don't bother me with facts.
    2
  1902. You need to check the cost of old worn out trailers that are still serviceable as long as you don't take them out on the road.
    2
  1903. You can believe him or not not, I did the same thing, so I believe him.
    2
  1904.  @stefan2796  Doesn't explain why, the facts as we know them don't line up.
    2
  1905. Classy, cheaper and thoughtful.
    2
  1906. There is less solar power on Mars than on Earth, lets use it here, I am.
    2
  1907. The community doing custom work on cars is very good, but not very big anywhere.
    2
  1908. AS we get our electric cars we all will slow down. Safety first!
    2
  1909. Must be the social media.
    2
  1910. Actually not the only car, there are smaller car companies.
    2
  1911. You can't see the running lights very well in the daytime.
    2
  1912.  @HANUMAN7454  Not material to discussion.
    2
  1913. You can bet on there being more to the story, just the information presented here has conflicts..
    2
  1914.  @brianoflondon  Yeah, I'd have a hard time "tolerating" a cruse ship.😁
    2
  1915.  @beachcrow  Use a Tesla wall connector and a good disconnect switch, not one like in the video that melted. Put breakers away from other breakers so they get cooling, use the correct wire, get an electrician.
    2
  1916.  @jamesb.armstrong5433  Still, who wants to pay the much higher price for gasoline? And who is going to sell it? There will be no distribution system.
    2
  1917. i had a fun time running the grid in the South-West, (Arizona-New Mexico-El Paso, Texas and El Centro, Calif) I wrote my own program on a HP45 to economically dispatch the plants and used a very old computer to do the work (ProDac 580) which was broken at the time, but fixed sometime later. We Saved millions on fuel and maintenance costs. I Bought and sold power all over the Western Interconnection. The grid is better now, it is being modified to support Solar and Wind. Tesla Mega Packs would be a better solution.
    2
  1918. Or just push the clean button. (cleaning fluid).
    2
  1919.  @mcRydes  He does have a reason to keep working , he enjoys a challenge in order to farther his ideas improving the world.
    2
  1920.  @Mrbfgray  We will wait and see what Elon will do, he knows more than me.
    2
  1921.  @pitech4446  Some rich people train their kids to run their companies, some are successful and some are not. Elon has stated he is raising his kids to be free thinkers, not chained to what other people think they should be, just check out Hank Williams son's story and you will see why.
    2
  1922. Some people are in business because they are smart and some people are standing around criticizing because they don't know beans, learn before opening mouth.
    2
  1923. More trucks and trains.
    2
  1924. Depends on where you live.
    2
  1925. As a twin (fraternal) I have taken several extensive tests and it has been proven to me that it is not that kind of connection (psi), but it is a "connection" nevertheless.
    2
  1926. It's hard to believe that Edison started the Santa Anna winds, but I wouldn't put it past them.😁😁
    2
  1927.  @saintpeterspeters1053  No War is good for anybody.
    2
  1928. If it goes boom!?
    2
  1929. What we are really seeing here is the superiority of modern Western methods as opposed to 18th century methods. Remember the generals curse; they are always fighting the last war, not the current war.
    2
  1930.  @RobertABooey75  Front lines are in Russia as well.
    2
  1931. Bessemer created this steel making process in England. Henry Bessemer, took out a patent on the process in 1856.
    2
  1932. Not having to call you names but the fact is you, and all humans are 100 times worse drivers.
    2
  1933. Sal, that was a little over dramatic.
    2
  1934. Nothing new here, I've been reading and talking as well as doing some of these things since I was 10 years old and I'm now 80. No one is listening and no one wants to face the future or think about it. People will complain and blame the government instead of DOING something about it. If you think the Western countries are bad at procrastinating, check out the rest of the world, they will be left in the dust of history.
    2
  1935. So the ship is just like FSD on my Tesla!😁😁😁😁 (Except it didn't work) maybe someone should have been supervising?
    2
  1936.  @diankreczmer6595  Its not the mines, its the people, there are to many.
    2
  1937. Breaking the cycle does not require such drastic measures, but still...
    2
  1938. Sounds like a "Pied Piper" problem to me. Of course I voted with the board.
    2
  1939. That won't happen, if the price goes down, I'll buy more.
    2
  1940.  @zollen123  Up until recently, you had to be 7 miles away to even fire your air to air missile, now its right up the tailpipe. (That's a lot closer).
    2
  1941. He is right, you know. Nobody knows where they are, because they never did know, they don't exist.
    2
  1942. They can't even find some of the real bombs they accidently dropped.
    2
  1943. How can it break if it doesn't work in the first place?
    2
  1944. That's not true, we can't see how many Tesla has made. About 15 a month out of Nevada.
    2
  1945. When I saw that Lucid Motors was building a plant in Casa Grande, Arizona, I knew they would go bankrupt.
    2
  1946.  @SlickBlackCadillac  All Indian crew, where did you get your information?
    2
  1947. You are out of sync, voice to video.
    2
  1948. If you don't know that he is the smartest guy in the room by now, there is no hope for you. Are you willing to take the heat? No politician is.
    2
  1949.  @stevebandurak6006  One thing about the U.S. is no matter how much money you want to steal, and these guys are not about stealing because they are among the richest ever in history, there is so much money involved that nobody notices if it's gone. There are only a few people in the world that can think at the level of Musk. If he can save the country, so be it. The last person to try to save the financial system of a country was Isaac Newton, (he did too).
    2
  1950.  @danielch6662  You are quite correct, that's why he doesn't do that. As opposed to your thinking, others look at the world completely differently, that's why they are successful. As an engineer, I would welcome the chance to stretch my knowledge and enhance my value, in fact I'd likely do it for free. (A feather in my cap). Elon knows how to make his engineers happy and more valuable..
    2
  1951. This is fairly accurate, I would need a short refresher course at 78 years old.
    2
  1952.  @alancane1482  I"m a perfectly safe driver.😁
    2
  1953. A patent only lasts 14 years, what are they hanging onto? The mentality has been expressed for many years now for those willing to see. Check out Al Capp's brilliant parody of General Motors, General Bull Moose. "What is good for General Bull Moose is good for the country".
    2
  1954. I am sorry to hear you are so short sighted and uninformed, please study up on events.🙄
    2
  1955. This is true, the government wants to save you from dying from car exhaust.
    2
  1956. My dog didn't have self awareness, but he was smart, I probably could have taught him to drive.
    2
  1957.  @bobqzzi  That's a little short sighted, the cost of an ICE car does not include the costs everyone pays, like environmental costs which are hidden.
    2
  1958.  @rockets4kids  It says money is the root of all evil.
    2
  1959.  @Bushmaster3327  Nevertheless, the hummer will be used well by the Ukrainians they understand the limitations.
    2
  1960.  @Bushmaster3327  I would bet that the Ukrainians will find a way to double the effectiveness of the Hummer.
    2
  1961. Only Tesla knows what it is doing, the analysts are lost.
    2
  1962. Or ever.
    2
  1963.  @That_Stealth_Guy  Remember the cost.
    2
  1964.  @dickslocum  Its the same old data link, digital now. I worked on them for 8 years for APS as a radio engineer (SCADA). We changed over from tube to transistor in that time. That was after I got out of the USAF Com-Nav 1963-1967 on the F-105, I went to tech school on the F-106.
    2
  1965. No, the one outside Moscow was bigger.
    2
  1966.  @jamesclaytonbowman5977  Someone else with less knowledge said we only use GPS. Anyone would use more than one method.
    2
  1967. One of your more important videos.
    2
  1968.  @wilfdarr  Lets just keep it in the fog of war.
    2
  1969.  @alanwhiplington5504  That might be true, but we know how to teach, just don't do it. People sometimes behave badly, especially when money is involved.
    2
  1970. Or what the public wants to hear.
    2
  1971. Turkey can allow whatever they please.
    2
  1972.  @nordic5490  I think you got the chumps mixed up.:oops:
    2
  1973.  @WildcatWarrior15  WE are not in Kansas any more.
    2
  1974. That's interesting, I filmed the Stockholm less than 24 hrs before she collided with the Andrea Doria in 1956.
    2
  1975. What? are you smarter than the average? Good for you!
    2
  1976.  @macrumpton  You didn't get it. They are talking about the machinery to make batteries i.e. the technology.
    2
  1977. It may not be clear to you, but I can read the handwriting on the wall.
    2
  1978. No.
    2
  1979. I know of a least one military vessel that burned to the waterline.
    2
  1980. Have at it.
    2
  1981. He has been around to long for that, if he wasn't trying, we would know by now, the trouble is you can't believe anything the Chinese say.
    2
  1982. There you go again, confusing people with the facts.
    2
  1983. You are riding the wrong horse.
    2
  1984.  @Mrbfgray  Flooded cars are left in the water for sometimes weeks and no one ever thought they were flood proof, especially salt water.
    2
  1985. I heard a rumor that not all customers are paying Russia for the oil that was shipped, that would make it even more interesting.
    2
  1986. I 100% agree with McCarthy, we should help Ukraine and make sure no funds are diverted by corruption, They know they are being held accountable. There is no blank check.
    2
  1987. No, you paid $4,000 for a car that needs constant maintenance.
    2
  1988.  @piecio81  With a little Swedish help.
    2
  1989. It could be arranged with the right connections and software, might be a temporary thing for Tesla to do.
    2
  1990. How come everyone does not know that Elon gave the operational control of Starlink for the military to the military? It should be obvious that a private company does not want to be in the business of fighting.
    2
  1991. People don't change much, they don't like change, many are afraid of it.
    2
  1992.  @fastbuzzardo4204  That will be true for you, but not for me.
    2
  1993. Or they can be adjusted, (I know this is a brilliant break through).
    2
  1994.  @qinby1182  Oops! you missed that one!
    2
  1995. You have just argued yourself out of your argument. The pilot has personal responsibility of the airplane even though it is on autopilot.
    2
  1996. Yes, there mandate from heaven has expired.
    2
  1997. I can't understand the audio.
    2
  1998. True fact, people hate change.
    2
  1999.  @a0flj0  Slowly, slowly. Russian pilots are not scared, they don't want to waste their aircraft flying over 20,000 short range missiles, aircraft survival would be zero. (So far at least). Ukraine makes Hanoi look like a picnic.
    2
  2000. So you are saying its up to you to fix your own problems?
    2
  2001. That is well known to be completely wrong.
    2
  2002. Or the good ole' boy network. Still, follow the money.
    2
  2003. More likely they let him go for being jumpy.
    2
  2004. Karl Marx was a genus of his time, but the world will move on as soon as people get their heads out of the sand. Its all different now.
    2
  2005. The problem is going for the lowest short term cost instead of thinking.
    2
  2006. Take them up on it, it is to sell Y, 3, and X; not cut down orders, how is Tesla going to tell if their pre-orders are good? This might give them some information.
    2
  2007.  @Breadandbuttah  There is more to life than money and it shows in this situation.
    2
  2008. It is the nature of being human. (Follow the pack).
    2
  2009. I can't see why they would buy shares in any of Elon's companies since they are a wholly-owned subsidiary of SpaceX.
    2
  2010.  @patrickbateman783  You would be surprised how fast they can change.
    2
  2011.  @MerchantMarineGuy  The size of a car does not mean the weight of a car.
    2
  2012. China is trying to build old technology, just not with a lot of success.
    2
  2013. This is impossible to do, since there name has been mud for 70 years now.
    2
  2014. Even Chinese vehicle's are changed to conform to the country that they are selling them in.
    2
  2015. Yes, I used to worry about my ICE cars breaking down or needing gas, but now with my electric cars, I am at peace.
    2
  2016. It won't make a 70 mile round trip.
    2
  2017. It is impossible to dethrone the king, long live the king!😁😁😁
    2
  2018. That's what we have been trying to do since Putin took office.
    2
  2019.  @oneviwatara9384  You contradicted yourself when you said the driver survived. One incident in Calif. the driver tried to commit suicide and kill his family, but all survived at least a 250 ft. drop.
    2
  2020. How about a 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 that had only one fuel pressure valve go bad in 20 years (at 14,000 miles) ($13) and nothing until at 104.,000 miles the AC compressor wore out after 21 years ($170).
    2
  2021.  @swatkin3  You pay it in taxes and high fuel bills (more taxes $0.183 plus state per gallon of gas). Government bailouts to car companies that are not paid back. Other incentives to oil companies and other gifts that are buried in the regulations. You even get subsidies for the goods delivered to your door. Currently the gov. is giving 12 billion to car companies to make "advanced" cars which could include EV's. It is estimated that taxpayers pay $20 Billion per year to the oil companies in subsidies just in the US alone.
    2
  2022.  @alpearson9158  So why is Canada making parts? Have you ever maintained an aircraft? Why are you shouting?
    2
  2023. Show me.
    2
  2024. I see you have blown a head gasket and gone off to never-never land.
    2
  2025. You seem to think Elon does not know this, the name of the game is to save the planet not stop people from copying.
    2
  2026.  @benjaminsmith2287  Gun powder.
    2
  2027. Depends on the battery.
    2
  2028. And he is still alive and kicking.
    2
  2029.  @johnfruh  To prepare the way.
    2
  2030. This is exactly why we have the system we have, to keep rash actions under control.
    2
  2031.  @pansepot1490  They specified a treatment that has a higher success rate, this has very little to do with religion except peoples general misunderstanding of what AA is.
    2
  2032.  @jannespor8178  The original Wright Flyer is hanging in Washington D.C., I have seen it twice. It was kept and preserved by a competitor of the Wrights.
    2
  2033. Don't forget this changed ship propeller design as well.
    2
  2034.  @davidbrayshaw3529  Sounds just like a person to me.
    2
  2035.  @cameronkrause4712  What difference does it make to not be able to see a plane from the air or by satellite? Where are you thinking of using these airplanes? If you transmit the location to ground forces where are the ground forces at? Canada?
    2
  2036.  @ballsack7692  Accurate.
    2
  2037. But you can't ignore the stats; Tesla is the safest car ever and continues to get better.
    2
  2038. Well we are the government. Kick out the people that are responsible.
    2
  2039. You can't sue the CCP.
    2
  2040. You mean like an expert London Taxi driver?
    2
  2041. Normal ammo is round lead balls (or steel).
    2
  2042.  @tonyclewes8  Elon is far beyond being annoyed by the hoi polloi. He loves them.
    2
  2043. I'll go along with, "They have no idea".
    2
  2044. Sounds good to me.
    2
  2045.  @BobMac-r1v  Ahh, a good conspiracy coming up!😁
    2
  2046. Also an indication of lack of power to and from the engines.
    2
  2047. Everything that you have is reserve stock to someone.
    2
  2048. As an angel?😁
    2
  2049. Fools will, the Chinese won't.
    2
  2050. Giga Nevada reached the maximum size it could, that's why it stopped growing, when the constraints are changed, it might grow.
    2
  2051.  @markharmon4963  But I am correct in my rightist views.
    2
  2052.  @markharmon4963  I have no need for clarification, fortunately, because this is not clear.
    2
  2053.  @softwarephil1709  You will be walking. (Or, even better, riding a horse).
    2
  2054.  @kamsunleong6648  What do you do when they all stop at once?
    2
  2055.  @BjorckBengt  Depends on how long your arms are.
    2
  2056. I would add that they never would have done anything at all if it weren't for Colin Chapman
    2
  2057. That's like saying that autopilot in a plane is not full autopilot, if that were true, the plane would crash. Ignorance will eventually be replaced.
    2
  2058. That race will be re-run and the Cybertruck will be the clear winner. They need better tires on the trailer.
    2
  2059. All the stats say you are dead wrong.
    2
  2060. Better to have the car brake than have the car break.
    2
  2061. Yes, there isn't any.
    2
  2062. Boy are you off base. Just wait.
    2
  2063. When you accuse someone or put them on trial, you must have at least some hard evidence, not just talk. So go and get the evidence first and then accuse people of whatever they are doing, that's the system we have. Just because you have an emotional argument does not do any good at trial.
    2
  2064. Their just making castings to give you something to look at.
    2
  2065.  @daleallen7634  He knew that.
    2
  2066.  @diedampfbrasse98  The U.S. supplied the necessary ingredients, namely fuel and backbone. You want to see someone move fast, get an American.
    2
  2067. When you run out of water, you are out of water, not much you can do about it, just wait.
    2
  2068. Schulz was mirroring the parents around him, not making it up.
    2
  2069. You really shouldn't compare a chemical explosion to a Nuclear explosion, they are massively different. Even a small Atomic bomb is going to be over 20,000 tons of TNT equivalent, let alone a Hydrogen bomb, which most people think of when talking about Nuclear weapons which would be over 4 to 20 Mega tons of TNT equivalent, that puts a very large hole in the ground, nothing is left to burn since it all disappears in a few seconds. I was down in San Antonio when they accidentally set off 204 Hydrogen bomb components with 700 lbs of explosive each, that's 142,800 lbs. It put a mushroom cloud between 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 miles into the air approximately 1 1/2 miles from me. Fortunately, no one was killed, although it did blow out store plate glass windows 20 miles away.
    2
  2070.  @baldisaerodynamic9692  Videos that extend time without content are not appreciated.
    2
  2071. They are not dropping you off where they will drop you off in the future, this looks like a safety approach in general.
    2
  2072. Last or not at all.
    2
  2073.  @steven4315  It is aluminum made with allies.
    2
  2074. I see you failed to read Tesla's company statement on what their purpose is.
    2
  2075. If you had something using that idea already how could you patent it?😁
    2
  2076. It will never be fast enough.
    2
  2077. You seem to be talking both ways at once, the reduction of use of oil and gas will lower the price because no one will be buying it. Later, when people stop producing it because of low sales, the price will go way up.
    2
  2078. Where have you been? Water is gold in the west, always has been.
    2
  2079. But we want to call it reusable!
    2
  2080.  @nathanmcbow158  He was probably exaggerating, but close to the real number. He knows more than we do. It is a good excuse if you need one.
    2
  2081. Buy one.
    2
  2082.  @Ryan-ff2db  Nothing rare on my circuit boards, just aluminum, copper, carbon and gold.
    2
  2083. Tesla is the best solution, let everyone know it.
    2
  2084. Tesla has already dominated ALL of German car companies, you just don't know it.
    2
  2085. It is so bad that you left out some words.(Pardon me if you are blind).😁
    2
  2086.  @conormegaffin4934  True, but that is not the reason for the law, it covers the responsibility of the operator, not the equipment. The operator is responsible for the equipment. So pay attention.
    2
  2087.  @HDTube101  Not a single one that read the instructions and followed them.
    2
  2088. You are not very good at reading people are you.
    2
  2089. What you are saying is they don't want to be in the business of selling cars.
    2
  2090. The only way to stay ahead is to run as fast as you can. That's what they are doing.
    2
  2091.  @randomnobody660  Yes!
    2
  2092.  @common_c3nts  Go invest in that right now!
    2
  2093. There are different uses for different computers.
    2
  2094.  @whowhy9023  That's because they are a specialist firm.
    2
  2095. It depends on what you are on.
    2
  2096. I will bet the same as you.
    2
  2097. What difference does that make, you are upside down anyway.
    2
  2098.  @trondialsingh594  That's wrong, the Chinese want Tesla because they are the best, learn from the best.
    2
  2099.  @mattgraham4340  Why does everyone forget the mission? Get the world moved from fossil fuels. The only way to stay ahead is to run as fast as you can.
    2
  2100.  @MOMENTSbyGabriel  You will be disappointed if you think they are different.
    2
  2101.  @garyacker7388  Its because you are old and they are afraid you will expire on the spot and they will not be able to carry you.😁
    2
  2102. I am almost 80 and been thinking about Bots all my life, nice to see U.S. Robotics finally taking off.
    2
  2103. Listening to the guy on the bottom is what made America great again.
    2
  2104. Also remember the jumping frog.😁
    2
  2105. Boy, you have been living in a cave for the last 70 years. Taiwan built itself up to be the worlds chipmaker on purpose, no one forced them to do it. No one forced the Chinese to move their factories to other countries, they saw the economic advantages without any help from anybody else. (Except the CCP stealing all their money) Etc., etc. We are fast coming to the end of taking resources out of the earth because of increased efficiencies in utilization, in a few years those that have only natural resources will have no customers to sell to, then what? What is China going to do now that we don't need them to be the world's factory any more?
    2
  2106.  @jimbstars  No, but he at least is trying.
    2
  2107.  @FutureAzA  You got more than me.
    2
  2108.  @starhunter7275  AI says what you tell it to say.
    2
  2109. According to the Moss 5 percent rule, it is already to late. Leave now. I left NJ in 1967.
    2
  2110. The rest of it is sealed up as well. If the assembly is mistake proof, I see no problem, but you never know.
    2
  2111.  @DoubleMrE  Curtis did not invent anything. He changed the design to get around the patents.
    2
  2112. The British have an antidote for Lewisite.
    2
  2113.  @robertsmith2956  Now that is odd, my 2000 Silverado 1500 never has had that problem, I just went out and checked, but the plastic gadgets on the tailgate did break but they are inside and easily replaced by the old metal ones for about $1.50. One rear inside door plastic handle did break, but they were designed incorrectly.
    2
  2114. It will be more than that.
    2
  2115. More like explained it than trumped it. A good job.
    2
  2116.  masudsaleh5155  The truth will prevent anything like that from happening.
    2
  2117.  @valerystoichkov7429  Possibly, but it shows the performance of the cyber truck in an amusing, creative and entertaining way.
    2
  2118. Fake gold bars will do.
    2
  2119. The Italians and Greeks run the tankers, so they kiss their own fleet.
    2
  2120. Where did you get that price? they are $64,000 up.
    2
  2121.  @michaelhilber8284  Its not under control.
    2
  2122. We did not do without them, except at our peril.
    2
  2123. You need to check your information.
    2
  2124. By my estimates, they lost 1,000 killed and wounded, might be more. Sit on a pile of ammo and set it off and see how many causalities you get.
    2
  2125. You are a little off the mark.
    2
  2126. Correct these numbers and it is even cheaper.
    2
  2127. They do, some just want to overlook the facts.
    2
  2128. You are off base by at least one order of magnitude.
    2
  2129. That's why we remain the only super power.
    2
  2130. But they will waste the lead time and Elon knows it.
    2
  2131. You have a very bad outlook on life. I bought two Teslas and am having a ball.
    2
  2132. Its going to take more than luck.
    2
  2133. Don't get carried away, he isn't that good.
    2
  2134.  @surferdude4487  I personally talked to two f-16 pilots and asked them that question, since I knew they were both 6'4" they are mentioned in the book, "Return with Honor" , so that is not true.
    2
  2135. I fought the law and the law won. I'm still a disabled vet, just not getting paid for all of it.
    2
  2136. This is a slave gulag, not a factory. They lock the doors at night.
    2
  2137. Everyone has their own opinion and stake in the game.
    2
  2138.  @linusmlgtips2123  Yep.
    2
  2139.  @PaulTopping1  Even Russians value their "truth".
    2
  2140.  @MrsRitchieBlackmore  Co-operation is mans greatest strength.
    2
  2141. The SAC techs are the ones that invented black boxes, they can really mess with your radar.
    2
  2142. Akihabara is and was fun!
    2
  2143.  @kathrynck  If you were not desperate, why would you buy old technology?
    2
  2144.  @jack99889988  Well, you certainly didn't fly a F4F wildcat against a Type 0 Fighter (allied designation, Zero). The design philosophy was different, continuous improvement was difficult to impossible for the Japanese while it was and is a constant for the Americans and allies. For practical purposes, the zero was inferior for a number of reasons which have been gone over many times.
    2
  2145. Russia is fooling a lot of people by putting these unusable tanks out to be counted, I'm not fooled.
    2
  2146. It is nothing but jealousy and fear of change. The Elon has taken over and you will be assimilated.😁 This is a reference to a story that was written before Elon was born about a future elected ruler of Mars. (Please don't take this seriously).
    2
  2147.  Dragan I  These things are not chance, we know what they will do.
    2
  2148.  @S0ulinth3machin3  One of the shells used in the 155 mm is an air burst high fragmentation, I don't think the Russian troops will like it.
    2
  2149.  @Monty7473  There is a careful separation between civilian and military to prevent this from happening, it is a purposeful act.
    2
  2150. Prices don't seem to be jacked up. It is advertising, not sales.
    2
  2151. So what stocks did I invest in? An Electric generation Company, a gas company and Tesla; for years now.
    2
  2152.  @empirestate8791  At least you can see into the future, that's more then some people.
    2
  2153. No one wants to spend the money to do a proper job.
    2
  2154. Elon always said that batteries were the limiting factor.
    2
  2155. Better to build a new factory, otherwise it will never be productive enough to make any money with the unions and the dealerships involved.
    2
  2156. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Oracle CTO Larry Ellison (R), and SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son announced they were going to put 500 billion into a company called "Stargate" Elon Musk says they don't have the money. I suspect Elon has 3 AI mega computers going. How are the European countries going to do that? It looks like a huge waste of money to me, since I have never seen any evidence that a computer, or anything else for that matter can become more intelligent than a human, after working on it for 2.5 million years. Sure faster and being able to handle more information, but that doesn't make you smarter. I long ago figured out that you only have one fast path to becoming sentient. Follow what nature did.
    2
  2157.  @jefferyboring4410  So I have no eardrum in left ear and almost no hearing in right ear. Why do you think noise is not dangerous?
    2
  2158. Me too.
    2
  2159. Mary Barra has convinced me to sell all my Nikola stock and buy GM.
    2
  2160. More like one million casualties, over 250,000 dead.
    2
  2161. Just as an exercise, I would take conscripts from the state of New York over Moscow Oblast any day. Russians fight well on Russian soil, elsewhere, not so much. And I don't blame them.
    2
  2162.  @godofdun  They are just fooling people, all the money goes to the dealers, except Tesla who does not have any dealers. You won't see a penny of this money if what has happened in the past happens again.
    2
  2163. Brains have no home either.
    2
  2164. You can run, but you can't hide. There are no civilians in the next war. And nowhere that won't be affected.
    2
  2165. Opponents and conflict sell, don't you know basic advertising? Here is a short course; There is no good or bad publicity, there is only publicity. The best publicity is free publicity. No publicity is death.😊 Check with P.T. Barnhum, the second greatest advertiser after Elon Musk. Ron Popeil hangs in there as well. Others don't even hold a candle to their brilliance and they know it.
    2
  2166.  @fallguy4209  You fell for that "The tires only last 15-20,000 miles" trick, they last the same as an ICE car if you drive the same way. Brakes last longer on my Tesla than on my Nissan Altima Hybrid, which weighs less. Have you compared over say 40,000 miles? I think not from what you say. I have actually done these things.
    2
  2167.  @jonathanhiner7486  You mean landlord not tenant. Hybrids are not the best solution, ask someone who has one, (me for 14 years). My Tesla is better in all respects. I had to drag my wife kicking and screaming to the Tesla store, now I can't pry her out of the car, but she is still complaining about FSD not being perfect. We are 80 years old.
    2
  2168. I was never a lineman but I worked with them when I was a radio engineer, I can tell you it an't easy.
    2
  2169. The best analysis of the best minds in Europe and the U.S.
    2
  2170. British tanks = 200, Russian tanks = 50, by the time Ukraine gets done with them.
    2
  2171. You mean can't see the truth, its built into human nature.
    2
  2172. Nissan is a terrible car company with equally terrible dealers, why not just get a Tesla? I did after having a Nissan for 15 years. Tesla is cheaper and better. 320 + miles range model Y long range.
    2
  2173.  @DK-vx5co  Copies of the Wright Flyer have flown, they are documented.
    2
  2174.  @surfpanther  The original Wright Flyer was capable of 20 min of sustained flight, which it did.
    2
  2175.  @FutureAzA  Really some people are beyond...
    2
  2176. So? it wasn't a tanker.
    2
  2177. What do you mean "short"? Electricians avoid the word. Do you mean nonexistent?
    2
  2178. Hoping their worn out guns would hit something?
    2
  2179. Wonderful, they have solved the worlds power problem, to bad they are dreaming.
    2
  2180.  @brianponcelet3529  So how much FTX did you buy?
    2
  2181. Or, as she said, honest, so trusted.
    2
  2182. Saying anything is unserviceable shows your brain has been eaten by the anti freedom to repair ghouls. Of course its water tight and sealed. See Rich's Rich Rebuilds.

  2183.  @larryc1616  Corruption is the reason.

  2184. Please, no facts when we are complaining. How quickly we forget. It wasn't $7,000 yet.
    2
  2185. So you become completely target-able after release of weapons? What video game is this? Do you then get shot down by the fighter behind you?
    2
  2186. In fact wealth won't matter.
    2
  2187. Or you could highlight solar power and battery storage , which is really going to take off.
    2
  2188. Punch cards are from the Jacquard loom about 1804, the Hollerith Machine used punch cards in the 1890 census.
    2
  2189.  @Circuitssmith  Where did you get such a stupid idea?
    2
  2190. Great video, Sal.
    2
  2191. They did take out all the LPG stations around here except one in the Phoenix, AZ area.
    2
  2192. Because he is not the brightest bulb on the tree.
    2
  2193. Lets get this straight, if insurance pays for vandalism, Tesla gets to put in faster chargers for a very low price. Burning Tesla's allows the factory to make more at a lower price. The free publicity is worth its weight in gold. Who is losing here? I say it is the imbeciles that bankroll this type of behavior.
    2
  2194. At 80 years old, I want to get to the head of the line so I can enjoy my Cyber Truck for a few years. I'll give 10 to 1 odds the Cyber Truck will be a hit with more people than just me.
    2
  2195. No, they just want the easy money.
    2
  2196. This is going to be a problem when you don't need insurance any longer.
    2
  2197.  @ZweiZwolf  You mean they try to insure that they make a profit, they don't succeed when things change.
    2
  2198. The car keeps a record.
    2
  2199. Thank God for that, we need real information.
    2
  2200. At the mercy of public electric company's.
    2
  2201. RADAR is Back! Bigger! Faster! Cheaper!, Oops, I got carried away there.
    2
  2202. You have to be part of the good-ole-boy network.
    2
  2203. Seems to me the same thing happened to Thomas Edison, people forget. Just wait.
    2
  2204. No special software, that would invalidate the test, just turn off or on the safety features.
    2
  2205. Yes you can, if a quantum computer can do it a silicon computer can do it. Experiments have shown this to be true. We believe quantum computers will be faster eventually at doing real work, not just experiments. Lets not put the cart before the horse.
    2
  2206.  @JayMcKinsey  Actually they are buying new with the $7,500 discount and selling old.
    2
  2207.  @markplott4820  All things wear out even you.
    2
  2208. When I worked for Arizona Power Service, I went around with one of the area service men to collect a bill. He was very leery of getting shot by the customer, which is why he invited me to go with him. There was no one home at the time so he didn't even turn off their electricity, we just left. Seems a bit different approach.
    2
  2209. You forget the way these things are done, built for the specs of the American market they will pass but be more expensive.
    2
  2210. If anything, she is conservative, pick on someone else.
    2
  2211. Naturally, the best man wins.
    2
  2212. Why cheapen the car that way? Just make more, it will be cheaper.
    2
  2213.  @GET2222  Not terrible, just not very good.
    2
  2214. I remember seeing a RFP for a 250 megawatt power supply for airborne use back in 2000.
    2
  2215. It seems I am way ahead of the Russians in my tactical and strategic thinking, I'll bet others are also.
    2
  2216.  @stevecastellanos  This is true for 80% of the people, get used to it, its the bell curve. 20% of the people do 80% of the work.
    2
  2217. Not the soldiers, the Russian leadership, such as it was.
    2
  2218.  @tzyijiang9884  Now that would be over-kill.
    2
  2219. You must first get all planes and ships to do the same and then come back here and complain. (That an't goin ta happn).
    2
  2220. You have been blasted enough for your lack of understanding, so I won't add-on.
    2
  2221. Training is the issue, wait a while and these problems will go away.
    2
  2222.  @happyfelix1440  What do you mean? we can't even make the stuff fast enough.
    2
  2223. Radar can see things that are not even there.

    2
  2225. The people in Beirut were not standing around watching it go off.
    2
  2226.  @4TADO261  The president can only be judged insane if you say that anyone that runs for president is insane. Which would be judged as true by most people.
    2
  2227. I would be with you except they have not done any. Just trying to clean up the swamp.
    2
  2228. Things change, wait and see what happens.
    2
  2229. Big surprise! It must be conspicuously! instead of a conspiracy!
    2
  2230.  @JasonEDragon  Trouble is all others are not good enough, you will get shortchanged.
    2
  2231. So at least two of us can see through the FUD. By the way, you don't need LIDAR to see through FUD, just a thinking brain.
    2
  2232.  @JasonEDragon  If you live in the U.S. you already support a business where you wouldn't want to work; the U.S. government, they take 20%.
    2
  2233.  @cherrytrainingltd  Spontaneity is generally valued in society. I understand Musk's comments and see the depth of what he is saying. The world is not black and white and it is not the way I would want it to be. How we want things to be is open for discussion. Every argument has two sides.
    2
  2234.  @gregkramer5588  I am glad for the Elon factor, one way or another, it leaves more for me at a lower price. The naysayers can sit and watch while I grin at them.
    2
  2235.  @eugeniustheodidactus8890  There is only one at the top.
    2
  2236.  @b4804514  Have you heard of "lying down"? If you don't know what this means, you have no idea of what you are talking about. Are you one of the 20% that do 80% of the work? Do you know where there is a 4 day work week?
    2
  2237. Slowly, slowly, you set the frog to boil in cold water.
    2
  2238.  @adairmartin  What's the idea of actually learning how to use it? That takes all the fun out of complaining.😉😉
    2
  2239. Talking about horseplay on the job; reminds me of when I was a miner in Franklin, NJ in 1963 (that's right, the mine started by Benjamin Franklin during the Revolutionary War) I got paid $1.85 an hour. Anyway, some of the miners did not like my friend "Black Fudd" and threw him down the mine shaft 130 feet. He quit work after that indoctrination for some reason. Bruised up maybe. (Shafts are cut at the natural angle of the rock, about 57 degrees, from the Glacier turning over the crust of the earth.)
    2
  2240. Somewhat to very, off topic.
    2
  2241.  @tonysquires2068  The owners lose.
    2
  2242. The wild West.
    2

    2
  2244. When I was in maintenance in the AF, we had button-pushers.
    2
  2245.  @hnhgnjj6078  So you are going to believe a criminal is going to follow the law?
    2
  2246. Yes, he has time to do such things, probably without any help from anyone else since he is so smart. Alternately he is smart enough to not waste his time.
    2
  2247. The battery or electric system would cause a total write off before the gigacasting.
    2
  2248.  @TheBooban  It indicates how few people know how to repair cars or anything else.
    2
  2249. How do you buy with no money?
    2
  2250. So you don't think you can be replaced.
    2
  2251. well, what are we talking about? Fires per 1000 miles or ? Does Tesla have 1/287th of the fires or less? (a lot less).
    2
  2252.  @gustavgyll3291  It does not matter if it was to large since it was already earned. Your pay is to large as well, ask for a cut in pay. (If you have a job).
    2
  2253. How about just turning off the switch?
    2
  2254. Not my ruling class!
    2
  2255. We are not talking about phone apps here, these are physical adapters and a pain in the ass.
    2
  2256.  @trytofindareasonwhy  Ever hear of the saying, "He who has eyes but cannot see"? The shame is in the ignorance.
    2
  2257.  @louthecommoner9838  There is no place, this is an idea that comes from various misinterpretations of the ideas of Jesus and others. It is common to be offended by imperfection, especially in others.
    2
  2258.  @stanvassilev  Autopilot never was or is capable of steering the car, the impaired driver was, and is responsible, so what are you talking about? Autopilot may have slowed the car down however.
    2
  2259.  @johnpminis  Since we make new problems, not likely.
    2
  2260.  @dmitry5233  Which actually is true.
    2
  2261. Tesla does not think like you do, they don't think the job is done, I was a Chevy man all my life until Tesla are their lunch, now I have a model Y and I am 79 years old.
    2
  2262. Getting the railroads to do anything is a real pain in the ass.
    2
  2263. Actually the 1940's not the 70's. There was one, now there are more.
    2
  2264. I totally agree with what the head of Ford said about the cheaper car, but Ford does not have a cheaper car and neither does G.M., which puts them out of business.
    2
  2265.  @Semmster  Its the least common denominator problem.
    2
  2266. Build them and they will come? Maybe not.
    2
  2267. I bought my wife a Tesla model Y LR for her 80th birthday. She loves it.
    2
  2268. Except we have the power and the Chinese don't like it.
    2
  2269.  @todortodorov940  That doesn't solve the problem.
    2
  2270. I think George Washington said that.
    2
  2271. Hey, I know real people that fell for this crap, it was difficult talking them out of it, but I have a reputation for honesty and with a gang helping was able to get them to believe me.
    2
  2272.  @kurtwicklund8901  Think what are Israel navy boats doing in the area?
    2
  2273. Production is seldom reduced except for reasons that have nothing to do with FUD. Tesla offered a rebate, as all car manufacturers do, to move old stock out to make room for the new. (And to help the buyer take advantage of government rebates while they exist).
    2
  2274. Why do you think they call California the land of fruits and nuts? Florida is just as bad , but they have good sheriffs.😁
    2
  2275. That's not true, Tesla is the only way we can afford. The people in D.C. are doing their jobs, its just not the jobs you want them to do. Change is bad, I'm afraid of change, I actually might have to go to work.
    2
  2276.  @gordontubbs  You are forgetting that it steadily improved until the Germans became ineffective. In fact we captured one in the middle of the Atlantic and the Germans didn't even know about it.
    2
  2277.  @petertimmins6657  That is mixed up; if you enter, the assumption is you are under the law and subject to it, including the draft.
    2
  2278.  @aaronbaker2186  More like two months.
    2
  2279.  @martijnb5887  It will not be necessary to use F-16's to strike the Kerch bridge.
    2
  2280. A quibble; long distance transmission costs don't have to be large, whatever that is. How about 10%?
    2
  2281.  @kevinkanter2537  Paid eventually.
    2
  2282.  @randallkelley3600  The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Does it work?
    2
  2283.  @sportsfisher9677  No, the CCP is far ahead of us with Russia not far behind them.
    2
  2284.  @wgowshipping  NO time stamps! make them read the whole thing!😁
    2
  2285. Just a little lie, no pictures were taken because it shook people up so much. It was a mushroom cloud alright.
    2
  2286.  @JJ-ki6sv  I drove my 2023 Tesla model Y long range @75 MPH across two states 1,850 miles round trip without any issues at all. But I did have to stop to let my wife use the restroom and took advantage of that time to charge, about two hours. It was the nicest trip I have had over the same roads with my former ICE car.
    2
  2287. See video of Methane car exploding when being fueled at 3,600 psi. And imagine what one would look like at 10,000 psi.
    2
  2288. Except for not keeping up with the improvements in manufacturing. Which others have mentioned.
    2
  2289. Quite right, except it will be more intelligent then your wife... or you...or me.
    2
  2290. Sal knows his fans are on it.
    2
  2291. Don't start any rumors.
    2
  2292.  @brunoheggli2888  They just won't pay the bribes.
    2
  2293. It will be a lot cheaper to build large rockets and just fly over in 30 minutes.
    2
  2294. Vietnam and Afghanistan wanted wars in their country to make money, otherwise there is no interest in their country, Vietnam learned their lessons and is becoming a better country and Afghanistan will learn theirs. (problems mostly corruption).
    2
  2295. You are 100% correct, I only go by what a person does.
    2
  2296.  @johnmoruzzi7236  Neither does the NTSB report.
    2
  2297. I saw a aluminum V-8 Chevy blow up at Indy in 1963, I'll bet those rods don't stand up.
    2
  2298. Your aggressive attitude toward stupidity is fun, but Tesla is about dragging the other car manufacturers out of their 100 year slump kicking and screaming into the new world, not putting them out of business, which would be counter-productive.
    2
  2299.  @papaschlumpf5894  Quite correct, Putin is stuck in 1848, we have moved on.
    2
  2300. I am an old fart.
    2
  2301. The CCP has exceeded its mandate from heaven. Time to go.
    2
  2302.  @willaimoconnell9430  And every other country that does not want to give the world problems.
    2
  2303. I don't have facts, but I think they are very low, it looks like 1 million people have just got up and left to me. I think Russia is in an economic disaster.
    2
  2304.  @andidede3653  It was the change in interest rates that got them, the same as last time.
    2
  2305.  @hibbo1351  There are only seven stories.
    2
  2306. That's because real work is locked out for "safety".
    2
  2307. Except Elon and Benjamin Franklin, oh, and there was one other guy that created Singapore.
    2
  2308. The Giga Press for the Cyber Truck is most likely 9,000 tons, they probably skipped the 8,000 ton press.
    2
  2309. This is not a correct assumption, Humans were evolved to survive in this environment, not to be efficient. We are very slow.
    2
  2310. Well, maybe, I know as much or more but I keep my mouth shut.
    2
  2311. Weather you want to or not!
    2
  2312.  @ProXcaliber  Well at least you didn't ignore the facts like others did.👍
    2
  2313.  @stevenliew2507  You are confused and have been over-propagandized.
    2
  2314.  @rickjames18  First; what are the parameters?
    2
  2315. There is absolutely no comparison, take the word of an owner.
    2
  2316.  @jsbrads1  Yes, your life is not worth the effort.
    2
  2317. The model "A".
    2
  2318.  @whodatcatt  No, there aren't any.
    2
  2319. Did you ever hear of pumping the brakes?
    2
  2320. Saying scale in production will bring the cost down is a wish, not a fact, it depends on the implementation.
    2
  2321. No, that's Baker Electric.(get it?)
    2
  2322. Nuclear weapons are not something to be made fun of, Those Russians are ignorant. The only thing that keeps them alive is other people have the knowledge of how bad it is to be destroyed by nuclear weapons.
    2
  2323. I was an Airman 2nd class and I know what the general is saying is correct. So It doesn't take a general to see what needs to be done.
    2
  2324. There is actually some truth to this.
    2
  2325. In the desert, 1467 KWH avg., 893 KWH seems avg. for country.
    2
  2326. It only took one year in England.
    2
  2327.  @harrytobiassen5214  All EV's use regen so that is a given, can't be empty it still needs a driver and all those kw. You mean to tell me you don't drive the speed limit? Shame on you! Buy the way, my 2023 Tesla model Y LR gets the range they say it does.
    2
  2328.  @mddunlap03  There is a difference between reporting and making things up.
    2
  2329.  @TheDennys21  It is corruption of military, the generals took all the money and put it in their Swiss bank accounts.
    2
  2330.  @patricklosi3358  Hey! that's my line!
    2
  2331. You will be assimilated.
    2
  2332.  @mrnobody3161  I applaud you for repeating this information accurately.
    2
  2333. But the Chinese just did exactly that, they moved their entire factories except the buildings to another country (Vietnam) practically over-nite.
    2
  2334. That's off the coast of Georgia.
    2
  2335. This is at least partly true in my experience. I do feel anger toward those that deny this is a problem.
    2
  2336.  @donaldduck830  Not a lot that are working.
    2
  2337. Then it would not have happened.
    2
  2338. I have always been intelligent and have a great degree of confidence, knowing I can be wrong but doing my damnedest.
    2
  2339. Or just connect him up to the battery. Or strap him up to a Space X rocket like Wily Coyote.😁
    2
  2340. Nobody said anything different.
    2
  2341.  @Jaycee604  Where did you hear that? Elon pays his workers more than any other car company, in China others were trying to get him to pay less because he was paying double what other companies were paying. Its just the same as Henry Ford did.
    2
  2342.  @Peter-ud9bx  Why impute your bias on another person?
    2
  2343.  @Jaycee604  You have obviously not been in a union, I have. In the beginning, unions were needed, (read Karl Marx). Now they are not needed because they ask for more and more until they destroy the city (Detroit) or company. The profits should be shared, not taken by one faction.
    2
  2344.  @paulmoore7064  I have never tasted a plastic nano particle.
    2
  2345. And put all those airplanes that use it on the ground.
    2
  2346. Hell, the Tesla model Y will eat their lunch.
    2
  2347. Yes! Get to work and forget all this woke stuff! Focus on the business and doing good.
    2
  2348. Imagine still thinking it is OK to steal money.
    2
  2349. Hemingway was depressed long before this. A Farewell to Arms, The Sun also Rises and The Old Man and the Sea.
    2
  2350. I actually hit one in a snowstorm on FSD at 50 mph. The deer ran away and I paid $45 for a bumper trim part. the car and I both steered around the deer. I have a witness.
    2
  2351. I don't agree that any part of anyone's anatomy is forbidden to be seen in public, but just don't touch another person without their permission.
    2
  2352. Yes, by replacing them with even more shortcomings. BOOM!
    2
  2353. Convoluted, but you have a point.
    2
  2354. That would do it for anybody.
    2
  2355. We could call it an aircraft carrier.
    2
  2356. Sweden joining NATO will not change Russian power one little bit, Russia has no power to start with and the amount of power they have is up to them.
    2
  2357. Just follow the money.
    2
  2358.  @guyg2005  I get a thumbs up when driving my Cyber truck especially among the younger generation.
    2
  2359.  @noname-ll2vk  I beg to disagree with you, the Citroën 2CV is and always will be the ugliest vehicle ever built.
    2
  2360. He is getting old.
    2
  2361. The bribes would take away most of Tesla's profit.
    2
  2362.  @markplott4820  Probably all put together.
    2
  2363.  @whitepouch0904  Doesn't matter that she took a pill; the pilot, now that's a different matter, he should be tried in absentia.
    2
  2364. Look to the future, not the past. Its all manufacturing, not just cars. There is a big market outside the U.S., but no money to buy.
    2
  2365. Digging trenches is so WWI.
    2
  2366. Or even what others have said.
    2
  2367. Test anxiety.
    2
  2368. If you add up all the costs, China does indeed sell at a loss, you just don't know it. What is a loss? 200 million people out of work? No jobs for the youth?
    2
  2369. The chickens always come home to roost. The Asia trade was always temporary until the price got to high.
    2
  2370.  @oldbloke204  Because it has a crumple zone? Are tanks legal in your country?😁😁
    2
  2371. Blame JP Morgan for your losses.
    2
  2372. When the shit hits the fan, we are all in the same boat.
    2
  2373. True, but we never did face their problems, i.e. generals selling all their ammo on the black market.
    2
  2374.  @hoghogwild  What do they think the Hornet is, a B-52?
    2
  2375.  @rayztruck1950  There are many ways to do things, it will be worked out.
    2
  2376. So Steve got social engineered?😁
    2
  2377. Not well.
    2
  2378.  Johnny H Johns  Points for audacious behavior!
    2
  2379.  @SCH292  Or, you could say they are not playing with a full deck.
    2
  2380.  @bobair2  If you are saying that our second hand used equipment is better than Russia's; you are right.
    2
  2381. This is not an accurate guess.
    2
  2382. In fact , they don't exist.
    2
  2383. All I can say is, "You better call Sal."
    2
  2384. Remember what Buddha said, "Don't make me a God".
    2
  2385. Even a car isn't right for everyone, or a plane for that matter. A horse?
    2
  2386. Their tanks run on coal.
    2
  2387. Time shows Al was better off going his own way.
    2
  2388.  @craighermle7727  This is especially true for those that think they have their eyes open but don't. Elon is autistic which explains what he does and why people don't understand it.
    2
  2389.  @youdontwanttoknow5203  You should become a nerd so you can understand these things, right now you don't. You have read (or possibly not read) different Reports from NASA and "text books" than I have. I never have seen reputable people say what you say they have said. Of course, CO2 levels were higher in the past, what years were those? How about the oceans absorbing CO2 and becoming acidic?

  2393. So you want to tap into the earth's very own nuclear reactor? I worked in a mine where the temp. always stayed a constant 57 degrees Fahrenheit. You don't need to go down in the ground right now where I'm at, it is 106 Fahrenheit outside right now. But you could use the ground to cool your house.

  2419. As a general view. First you have to have enough trained techs that can actually do the work, my experience is they don't. It requires less knowledge to just replace parts and the other customers don't have to wait as long for repairs; then you have less returns for faulty work.

Overall, fossil fuels account for the majority of energy production. All power except Nuclear comes directly from the Sun (our Sun) and Nuclear power comes from some other sun (that exploded).

  2516. How in the world would increasing the money supply cause anything more than inflation, i. e. rising prices because the dollar is worth less? The shortage of goods is caused by restricting the availability of goods by various means, such as reducing factory output, tariffs raising the price of goods causing less sales and reducing output in turn, shortage of transportation, agreements among manufacturers to restrict trade or goods and many other methods, both legal and illegal. The increase in money supply will cause prices to go up eventually, but does not cause shortage of goods except as a temporary situation until the manufacturing can catch up. Actually, the real price of goods goes down over time, it only looks like it goes up because the value of money goes down. An exception to this rule is for instance when the car manufacturers sued to enforce the anti-dumping law raising car prices to extravagant levels to pay for their wasteful mismanagement of the industry in collusion with the unions. They will get their comeuppance, besides destroying Detroit.

In fact the battery was made and used for over a hundred years and is still in production and widely used. As far as that goes many electric delivery vehicles have been and continue to be made, just because you don't hear about something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. (For those that disbelieve).

  2564.  @David_K_Booth  In fact it immediately disconnects if that happens. But these things take place within limits, for instance the frequency on the system can't vary more than + or - 2 cycles. You can ask a generator to produce more power and that would tend to increase its phase angle in regard to the system, but it can't break synchronicity or it would trip off line. It could become a motor and use power, but if it couldn't be used as a generator it would be shut off, with the exception of hydro generators which can be kept spinning with no water pushing the turbine, spinning in air. A 135 MW gen could use 5-6 MW to keep it spinning. Sounds like we got off the subject here, but still interesting.

They had one in the Franklin mine when I worked there, just before going into the USAF in 1963, 3,000 feet underground and about 1/4 mile long.

  2590. What shape are you in?

  2591. Being a good cop is what makes a sheriff effective.
    2
  2592.  @Uncommonsensetoo  As well as other countries, letting your possible enemy know what you are capable of is a good deterrent.
    2
  2593. You fuel it up, get in, start the engines, get tower clearance, takeoff, aim for Turkey and hope they don't shoot you down before you cross the border.
    2
  2594.  @layneannen  technology is food.
    2
  2595.  @barygol  Your sarcasm is noted.
    2
  2596. So that's why they are not selling in the rest of the world? I think not.
    2
  2597.  @OMAOILRIAN  Wait till next year, it is already law.
    2
  2598. Judging by past history, that's correct.
    2
  2599. Actually we would like to let Europe handle Europe, it gets expensive for us to do it. You and I do not know what goes on behind the scenes. Wait and see.
    2
  2600. So 23 years ago, I retired as manager of a state agency that I managed for 18 years. If you don't know these things, you have no business getting a paycheck.
    2
  2601. That's the plan, just look at how fast they moved the battery plant equipment from Germany.
    2
  2602.  @toolbaggers  Don't make fun of that "Special Military Operation", it was necessary.
    2
  2603.  @arsenicjones9125  Not much.
    2
  2604.  @daffyduk77  I made it, others didn't.
    2
  2605. Is that why they call them "petrol heads"?
    2
  2606. So you would really like to have a Tesla. 😊
    2
  2607. This has more to do with gluttony than anything else.
    2
  2608. All the buildings left standing did not have ammo in them.
    2
  2609. Tesla is the only one that did or even could open the books to NHTSA. When they looked at the data, they went away mumbling in their beer. (They said they didn't have enough data.)
    2
  2610. All Tesla bots means no workers, no problem.
    2
  2611.  @briankearn6991  Why? He sure doesn't need them, and neither do we.
    2
  2612.  @davidl.beckwith4836  They have figured out a way to avoid physics!
    2
  2613. So you have never heard of the "not invented here " syndrome? Sandy is a good guy, he makes lots of money consulting.
    2
  2614. Yes and no.
    2
  2615. That is clearly not the case, more power from less weight is a performance improvement.
    2
  2616.  @allangibson8494  Battleships are no longer needed because of aircraft carriers and the new things coming along.
    2
  2617. Your thinking is wrong about Tesla and their mission.
    2
  2618.  @jonathannumer5415  Reminds me of the time I leaned on a friends new 1950 Henry J, I dented it severely.
    2
  2619. I get your meaning here...
    2
  2620. Couldn't afford it?
    2
  2621. I have known about and followed laser weapon development for better than 30 years, it is hardly a secret. (Since the first Request for Proposal for a 250 kW. airborne generator). My father worked for Raytheon in Denville, N.J. in the 1960's.
    2
  2622. My I point out that the experiences in modern times are less than in the past, like WWII those people never got taken care of, its now time we did take care of our people.
    2
  2623. A scam is a scam.

    2
  2626. Lets see, 100 factories = 1 Mega-factory; we will see.
    2
  2627. They have sold so many by now that it is the most popular EV truck in the world. Get real.
    2
  2628.  @glenwillson5073  Just cause you don't have the money doesn't make it a bad truck for someone else.
    2
  2629. They hadn't started yet because Elon Musk was 11 years old at the time and hadn't started PayPal yet.😁
    2
  2630. Its easy to figure out more are coming in than are going out. No one wants to handle the empty's. Now there's the problem!.
    2
  2631. No one is there.
    2
  2632.  @tairiddell1  The dealer will always screw you. That's what they do. That's why car rebates are 100% wasted, the money goes to the dealer.
    2
  2633. We have already reached 27% after 120 years of trying, just give it another 100 years and we will get that last 3%. External combustion can and does reach 50%
    2
  2634. Exactly. Ukraine will have to help Russia rebuild. Yes I said that.
    2
  2635.  @raminatox  Then the problem is all car companies lie. I'm moving to a different world.
    2
  2636. Depends on if you want all the money.
    2
  2637. Well maybe I should just get a black wrap for myself instead of my Cybertruck.
    2
  2638. That's because they are to loose, they are also losing money; fast.
    2
  2639. That actually happened to the fire dept. I was in, but I missed all the action since I was on vacation.
    2
  2640. Yes, you are correct, it is hard for many to understand anything at all.
    2
  2641. It doesn't matter who the Muppet is, electric battery cars are still better than hydrogen powered cars, you can't change physics by wishing. BOOM!
    2
  2642.  @titteryenot4524  Jeeze, just check our southern border.
    2
  2643. So your saying that the 1974 AMC Gremlin shouldn't have had a 1949 Hudson V-8 water pump? I paid $3,400 for that car brand new and replaced the water pump every 28,000 miles.
    2
  2644.  @TheRibbonRed  So you do not advocate making the mistake of copying your adversary?
    2
  2645.  @scratchy996  Artistic expression is not what we are after here, it is technological dominance.
    2
  2646. Its always a headache.
    2
  2647. OK you are good, do another one.😁
    2
  2648.  @ridewithme1098  This is mostly because of social media, it will go away when people get tired of it, give it a couple of weeks.
    2
  2649. Nobody actually crashed.
    2
  2650. Oktay is OK. Fastest talker I could totally understand.
    2
  2651.  @Zero_Contradictions  Unheard of.
    2
  2652.  @frida507  Believe me, he is hard of hearing.
    2
  2653. Are Chinese humble enough to learn from Tesla? I hope so and so should you.
    2
  2654. The idea of having an atmosphere on Mars is somewhat silly, there is a reason it does not and that is its escape velocity. Earth's escape velocity is just enough to keep the atmosphere more or less intact, but Mars' is not. End of discussion, unless you add a lot more mass to Mars... There just happens to be some spare mass in the asteroid belt which is not far away. So you are stuck inside a structure of some kind.
    2
  2655.  @garrett6064  Well, you certainly got it correct and wrong at the same time, congratulations! Been there done that.
    2
  2656.  @tiborkoos188  You could say that about me or any one, but the truth is still the truth, this is the same argument against Musk who most people know is correct, they just don't like it. Sabine is still correct.
    2
  2657.  @DummyAccount-f1q  You can say anything, it does not have to make sense, this is the problem with the internet.
    2
  2658. They are falsely worried of the unknowns, it will change.
    2
  2659.  @markplott4820  Please tell me where I can get a 2022 Tesla model 3 for under $50,000.
    2
  2660. Stupid and he panicked.
    2
  2661.  @skelly0000  So you actually know what you are talking about. Many don't.
    2
  2662. No attempt was made to start, it would have been much bigger.
    2
  2663.  @samiman5606  And dying of starvation at the same time.

  2664. Try being a fireman in their suits. I was.
    2
  2665.  @ecsolha  As a former firefighter, I think all fires are different and at the same time knowing what is burning, they are all the same.
    2
  2666.  @corpsebreath1029  True, but it is a guaranteed loss.
    2
  2667. Follow the money.

  2669. You could not go to different schools together, take it from a twin who knows and did.
    2
  2670. If you think you are omnipotent, there is no help for you since you have no humility.
    2
  2671. This is mostly a political move to raise rates, not a real problem. We will use PV and battery storage to unload the grid and the problem will go away. No one wants to pay the cost of infrastructure.
    2
  2672. When all your weapons fail, who in their right mind would buy at any price?
    2
  2673. That might have been true, some were their own pirates, not wanting to pay for protection.
    2
  2674. Elon is already doing this with Methane.
    2
  2675. That is well known.

  2678.  @Peter_S_  No, that was the other guy.

  2679. NATO bases have always been on the East side of Russia, its called the United States of America. NATO bases might be getting closer to Russia however in some areas.

  2680.  @DarrylZubot  50 min at 105 knots is more than not going anywhere.
    2
  2681. I have come to the conclusion that life is a natural byproduct of the universe.
    2
  2682.  @remliqa  You sure did not follow this idea all the way to its conclusion. What workers? The reason to pay someone for not working should be oblivious. Just think a little.
    2
  2683.  @ruthgiles8926  I feel sorry for those that have eyes but cannot see. And I'm not even particularly religious.
    2
  2684. Get better genes.😁
    2
  2685. I have an even better idea, attach an overhead wire to the bus and never need batteries at all! We could call it a trolley!
    2
  2686. It was the smartest of times, it was the dumbest of times...
    2
  2687.  @TheHorseshoePartyUK  Just get more cows and collect their gas to run all the cars on earth.
    2
  2688.  @PaleBlueDotCitizen  Horses! lets go back to horses! Unlimited financial opportunity to clean up their shit!
    2
  2689. You should go to Ukraine and find out.
    2
  2690. It took some time for Gwynn to develop so hang on!

    2
  2698.  @davidc2838  Big factory = many cars = lower price.
    2
  2699. If that were true, how do you explain the success of companies like Tesla for example, Building a car that will last 20 years?
    2
  2700.  @beehappy7797  What is a longer trip in Europe? Seems to me that is less of a problem than in the U.S.
    2
  2701. Of course they aren't making money. Why would you want to pay money for an inferior spot? Location, location, location.
    2
  2702.  @joesterling4299  Anyone that is stupid enough to put a drone in someones face can be charged with endangerment, so no additional law is needed. It is not illegal to make noise under a certain level at a certain time of day. There are noise pollution laws. Cars make more noise than a drone, lets ban them from city streets.
    2
  2703.  @adamhixon  It wasn't congress so much as those that saw an opportunity to make money by restricting other people.
    2
  2704. That does not meet Tesla's stated purpose. For that matter, it does not meet the stated purpose of Henry Ford either.
    2
  2705. People thought Clinton was also.
    2
  2706. I bought mine.
    2
  2707. I went over to the Carvana lot in Peoria, AZ and it looked abandoned, maybe just a security guard, I didn't see him.
    2
  2708.  @Generallyannoyed2024  Read the whole article.
    2
  2709. That is a way to look at it, it must mean that you can't tell what ones motivation is without asking them.
    2
  2710.  @eternalbalance7703  Because you would have to cut off about 6" of him?😁😁
    2
  2711.  @karezaalonso7110  You are easy.
    2
  2712. Buy your statements, I can see that most do not understand what is happening, pay close attention to The Electric Viking. This is more than a revolution.
    2
  2713. That's not the way it works, first you build a giga factory then you teach the Chinese how to compete, which they will learn, and then you lower the price of the cars, then, after you got them going , you move on to other areas.
    2
  2714. So you should try to run a power system with a drunk "assistant".
    2
  2715. Its not the pipes.
    2
  2716. Add SpaceX.
    2
  2717. Actually quite like a small drone, that's what they are, a TU-141.
    2
  2718. Don't believe everything you read or see.
    2
  2719. At Starbucks the minimum coffee price last I checked, was $1.57. Its probably gone up since then, just like the price of a Tesla. (I want my Cyber Truck!) What! a two year wait?
    2
  2720.  @RealCadde  This is called overkill, sometimes appropriate.
    2
  2721. Or shouldn't be driving at all.
    2
  2722. No, they are not, they are coal burning not oil.
    2
  2723.  @henrytaverner1803  That has nothing to do with the rest of the world, just the U.S. it is not an expansionist policy. Do you want to pay money for what the U.S. does as far as security is concerned? Show me where we took over others lands in Europe or Asia or Africa or South America.
    2
  2724.  @autobreza7131  It might be the last time.
    2
  2725.  @williammorgan5025  Because any labor cost is the problem. You will be eliminated.
    2
  2726. To bad they didn't know that there is no good or bad publicity, there is only publicity. The best publicity is free publicity. No publicity is death.
    2
  2727. Depends on the room available, the time available, the equipment available, the costs.
    2
  2728. This is the opposite of correct advertising, we don't want people to get on TV by stealing. Ray Stevens had the right idea, ridicule. It killed the fad of streaking in one playing of the record.
    2
  2729.  @angelgjr1999  Its actually because of inflation caused by printing to much money; faster than the economy is expanding.
    2
  2730.  @GreenBlueWalkthrough  Let's not ask Turkey.
    2
  2731. The law of supply and demand says the housing market is not crashing any time soon. First the demand has to dry up, so tell everyone to stop buying.
    2
  2732.  @thisisakodibox2635  Yep.
    2
  2733. We always had a combat fighter pilot in command, they knew what they were doing.
    2
  2734. There aren't any.
    2
  2735.  @aaronbaker2186  Vodka.
    2
  2736. So start now.
    2
  2737. Many people have made that mistake, don't bet against Elon. Short sellers have lost billions of dollars.
    2
  2738. Are you a high-wire act?😁 I have a model Y and am waiting on a Cyber Truck.
    2
  2739. Texas's grid collapsed because of mismanagement, not lack of any hardware. They let parts freeze up that could have been prevented as they did prevent in other places. When your temperature goes down your gas pressure goes down also, limiting your gas generatiion. When your windmills aren't winterized, they freeze up. etc. I ran the grid for APS as a system operator for several years. I instigated the breakup of the Arizona grid because nobody wanted to pay their share of the costs of running it, which was very foolish on their part. The system was divided into small independently run interconnected systems and it still is. Then I was Systems and Computer Operations Manager of The Arizona Power Authority for 18 years. When we signed a new contract for Hoover Hydro Power, the only company we could get to see the advantage of the use of hydro for controlling their system was SRP, so they got the advantage of the millions of dollars they saved by utilizing Hoover for their purposes. The system has to be managed by people that understand how it operates and not just look at the dollars earned in the short term. Just look at the mess California made of it in the Enron disaster. We sat in downtown Phoenix, AZ and scratched our heads trying to figure out how they thought they could get away with their scheme to take more than their share of the pie.

  2740. Hubris.
    2
  2741.  @hhal9000  Ask a Chinese person what auto plant they want to work for.
    2
  2742. Yet.
    2
  2743. The main benefit is it costs less.
    2
  2744. Politicians are helpless when it comes to change.
    2
  2745. It might beat it but it certainly didn't "crush it" at .2 sec. difference and 4 MPH faster and four times the price.
    2
  2746. What if it was Russia?
    2
  2747. The small minority got lost in the whirlwind.
    2
  2748.  @radiumdude  Because of stupidity, not vaccine.
    2
  2749. Its not the grid that needs to be fixed, its people that won't see the future.
    2
  2750. Oil too.
    2
  2751. Then why do they allow it in Europe? In Asia?
    2
  2752.  @Surelockohms  Quite the opposite, they are raising the price for human controlled cars because they are more dangerious.
    2
  2753.  @keilder8543  I could'da had a V_8!
    2
  2754.  @ncg8259  Russia loses, and it matters.
    2
  2755.  @dontcare7086  Russians read this stuff, they just don't follow this course of action, don't forget the Mig-25 still had vacuum tubes. They had to buy the RCA tube factory from N.J. and rebuild it in Russia to supply the tubes to keep their equipment working.
    2
  2756. Very nice job, I didn't have to take my VW apart to replace the throttle cable though.
    2
  2757. Bureaucrats. I was one for 18 years, fighting the machine.
    2
  2758.  @chumpthetraitor7331  The hoax is on the taxpayers, thinking their money is well spent.
    2
  2759. Different radars.
    2
  2760.  @cheatorcompletor7884  How about of you cut off the head of the snake?
    2
  2761.  @moenaguib2947  If it was an anti Tesla move it sure has backfired.
    2
  2762. Because they are out of money?
    2
  2763. The cuts over the years are the result of people not willing to spend the money it takes to do the job right. We need strong leaders and are not willing to have them.
    2
  2764. Certainly no exercise regime would be necessary.
    2
  2765. I don't want to be left in the trash-bin of history. My Hybrid stopped working, the company has abandoned it.
    2
  2766.  @TheAndrian463  You can maintain it.
    2
  2767. Who makes the judgments, Ukraine or Western powers? European countries play to many political games. America provides the backbone. Slowly, slowly boil the frog.
    2
  2768. See my comment above.Or just read it here: Price is determined by the LAW of supply and demand, government meddling is generally not a good thing and there are unforeseen consequences.
    2
  2769. Electronic equipment could be used to detect wrong way drivers if anyone wanted to pay the expense, which they don't.
    2
  2770. @yoloswagolo1 Pretty much, not like a troll.
    2
  2771. Well, not exactly. My College Professor in a computer class was a Chinese that got his degree from a Chinese college. I looked at his thesis and it was garbage, he knew less than I did, and practically admitted as much when confronted. (In other words he cheated). College football is what attracts young men to go to the school in the first place, this was its primary purpose before title 9 ruined it. Now we have 60 to 70 % of college people being women. Now there's your abyss.
    2
  2772. Yes, shave.😁
    2
  2773. How do you know?
    2
  2774. Time to reverse the trend.
    2
  2775. Japan depends on the US for protection from China.
    2
  2776. Words, words, words. No action, just free publicity for Warren.
    2
  2777.  @staycgirlsitsgoingdown2  Wouldn't you really rather have a Tesla?
    2
  2778. Instrumental.
    2
  2779.  @Sheldon42  The best part is no part.
    2
  2780. My red light turns are pretty good, its getting better. I have 13.2.8 in the Cyber truck and 12.6.4 in my HW3 model Y LR Tesla.
    2
  2781. What makes you think it will take that long?
    2
  2782. You mean all thinking people?
    2
  2783.  @garethrobinson2275  Not quite that easy, but easy.
    2
  2784.  @svenhodaka9145  But I don't want to look, I want to complain.
    2
  2785. Factors some people don't see.
    2
  2786. Quite.
    2
  2787. Ther were under fire when they were leaving!
    2
  2788. This is indeed a short view of the situation, in time it will all be cheaper. Or some companies will be out of business.
    2
  2789.  @Wasted_Talent007  What if there are no safety protocols?
    2
  2790. Just follow the money.
    2
  2791.  @sullivanrachael  Nah, I ran the grid for a few years in Arizona, there will be plenty of electricity and the price will go down. I'm retired now, but I looked at the plans for increasing the grid and it is awesome. California now has days where solar generates more electricity then is used. (So does Texas).
    2
  2792. I'm a utility guy, I spent my career in the USAF for 4 years than 34 years in grid operations, 7 years running the electric system for Arizona. Most of the time, you could not get a thing done, But I managed to circumvent bureaucracy many times and get things done. As system operator, I just did it myself and answered questions to the VP later, saved the grid many millions of dollars. I kept the only 50 year record of Hoover Dam operations when I was manager of the Arizona Power Authority, saving the State of Arizona many millions of dollars when California sued Arizona. Tesla is the only answer to the problems on the grid right now as well as electric charging, everyone else is just blowing smoke.

  2793.  @greenhighlander7  It is always a surprise to Russians how anyone can move so fast as Americans.

    2
  2795.  @hime273  Hmm, I was driving toward home when Two police cars stopped me. They thought I was drunk, and I don't drink. They gave me a test or two but I passed, so they let me go.

  2796. That was pretty complete, I have nothing to add.
    2
  2797. Some people you can help and others, meh.
    2
  2798.  @RBzee3  Ah, but we have a choice. Vote.
    2
  2799.  @OptimusPrime.  A Chinese lady from Beijing, born and raised right on the main square, told me their god is money.
    2
  2800.  @rogerstarkey5390  Yes, this is true and is precisely why they fail time after time.
    2
  2801. How about solar and wind power?
    2
  2802. Strong water pressure will never stop you from opening the window, which is much easier than breaking it.
    2
  2803.  @Schmidty1  You forget WWII production, we can do it.
    2
  2804.  @swmike  Why would you as an engineer duplicate power lines? The best part is no part, unless necessary. Ethernet is well established technology. Duplex or simplex is a better question. I vote for simplex.
    2
  2805. You weren't slurring your speech by the end.😁😁😁😁
    2
  2806.  @alekseyaleshintsev9841  Which invasion? Crimea?
    2
  2807.  @Nick.DC4L  That's what the instructions say to do.
    2
  2808. Wait until the data catch up, then it will be cheaper.
    2
  2809. how come it on its side?
    2
  2810. No they don't wonder they know, and are really mad about the crime.
    2
  2811.  @jimgraham6722  Will you say better than Tesla when you need repairs and the company is out of business and parts are not available? When you crash and get killed? I don't think so.
    2
  2812.  @jasontran8095  Ignorant people just leave more for me.
    2
  2813.  @taylankammer  Circular reference. (The whole argument).
    2
  2814.  @rodgemic  Their "holy cause" is found by following the money.
    2
  2815. Since the Giga Press IS injection mold technology, it should like injection mold technology, although simple that makes sense, more than I can say about other comments. There is no magic AI refinement, it is a tool to use.
    2
  2816. There are several different suppliers.
    2
  2817. Sorry, but you come last on the totem pole.
    2
  2818.  @গুরুত্বপূর্ণউপপাদ্য  O yes I do. but it won't get the Afghan's much, the Russians will take all the profits.😁
    2
  2819. Things change. There are no promises, just do or don't do.
    2
  2820. You need to consider that Russia reduced its population in the vital demographic by letting so many people go out of the country, then conscripted many from vital jobs further decimating their pool of usable people. They should be short about 3 million in the age group that matters right now, and are just beginning to realize their mistake. So making matters worse by conscripting women, further disrupting the whole society. They will not recover from this madness.
    2
  2821. I think we can safely say that Rivian will be successful at sucking up as much money as they can, but not producing much.
    2
  2822. I bought GM for 64 years, I like my new Tesla. If GM invested all their money in Tesla, they would make a bigger profit and be able to pay all the union retirement funds, but they won't, they will get the government to pay.
    2
  2823. Sounds like a losing tactic.
    2
  2824. One needs to look even farther back for the reasons for this conflict.
    2
  2825. What about all the people that think it isn't?
    2
  2826. China has not out smarted anybody, except perhaps themselves. We will be replaced by A.I.
    2
  2827. I invented that, and you owe me royalties.
    2
  2828. Well! rational thinking!
    2
  2829. Mostly correct, Tesla is already safer then any other car. cameras are not limited to the spectrum that we can see, the lens is only used to gather information, it does not have any way to interpret it, so the program could use any sensor that gave it information. FSD is based on the computer program being smarter than we know how to make it, it has to learn by the information we feed it then tell us how it did it. It is a machine to solve a problem we can't solve by ourselves.
    2
  2830. This is physically impossible, since they have passed the point of no return.
    2
  2831. I have a garage full of stuff, my truck sits outside, just like my dogs used to.
    2
  2832. This is not why, it takes time to make change.
    2
  2833.  @CorePathway  Copying is the highest form of flattery so they highly respect other peoples work. That's why they copy it.
    2
  2834.  @jonathanpfeffer3716  Reverse your thinking and you are close to the truth, copying won't get you ahead.
    2
  2835. You might have to send in the Navy to rescue our ships that are held hostage, its happened before.
    2
  2836. You don't know very many 9 year old boys like I do or you would not insinuate Farzad is a bad father, lets get real here, have you raised 3 boys and 2 grandkids, all boys, like I have?
    2
  2837. The Tesla short ETA went out of business.
    2
  2838. Price manipulation is rampant.
    2
  2839. Mirages are common here in the desert and yes they are caused by light being refracted by different temperature layers of air. you don't have to be a scientist to look this up on the internet.
    2
  2840.  @fingolfin7  Best not to start, it didn't take AI to figure that one out.
    2
  2841.  @fruitgums  If you pointed at General Scott, it would have been hard to miss. (Because of his great girth, for those that can't figure it out.)
    2
  2842.  @MrHalukbilgin  We have corruption, but not like other countries, (yet).
    2
  2843.  @edwardmerriam6970  What is your definition of "strong"?
    2
  2844. You talk about the stabilization as if it is equal to a generator, as a former grid operator, I can say that is is better than a generator because it works in both directions, keeping the frequency up from both loss of other generation and keeping it down from loss of load. Reaction time must be at least an order of magnitude better. In regard to the naysayers, when I was operating the grid, the higher-ups discounted the ability to stabilize the grid, not understanding the value of hydro to ramp up very fast from condensing mode (except the company that owned the hydro that is). At that time we were only playing with about 300 MW for a small amount of time before you would run out of water on a 10,000 MW load system (now over 15,000MW peak). I only own one Tesla model Y right now but hope to get a Cyber Truck next year. I have 4 kW solar on the roof but might need to get more in the future.
    2
  2845. This situation is crystal clear to the Russians, they are slowly being heated in the pot so they don't jump out, like a frog.
    2
  2846. Unfortunately, because of the frequency's and audio equpment used, I can't understand but every other word, making the video worthless to me.
    2
  2847.  @Martial-Mat  Just wait till they get replaced by an AI robot. Oh...my mistake, they already have.
    2
  2848. Sounds to me like an off the cuff speech, not authorized.
    2
  2849. I say throw your wooden shoes into the machinery. (Sabotage). Great to hear I'm not the only one who has had a good experience with people in different countries, Mexico, Canada, America, Thailand, Taiwan, The Philippines, Japan. (I am reading the new book).
    2
  2850. Sabine is smart enough to have a team. She communicates.
    2
  2851. Besides, Tesla is the best deal.
    2
  2852. The pilot of an airplane is still responsible for the plane and the captain of a ship is also, why would the driver of a car not be responsible? Its all the same. They are on FSD until they need to be piloted into port or landing, even then some systems are able to land the plane. If you don't like that, don't fly.
    2
  2853. Which has nothing to do with the problem at hand; how to reduce CO2 to reduce global heating.
    2
  2854.  @anipanim4310  You could lose control of Russia while sending all your troops to Ukraine. They are needed at home.
    2
  2855.  @xbxspartan  I have heard that before. There will always be do it yourselfers.
    2
  2856.  @dadonwelfare  All Asians do, it has to do with tradition and the Sun.
    2
  2857.  @ChickensAndGardening  Science has nothing to do with it. It comes from a beauty thing and avoiding exposure to the Sun, in other words an Emperor figured out the only way to keep people from getting skin cancer was to promote white skin as beautiful.
    2
  2858.  @johnsonjjohnson100  Just say "Troll".
    2
  2859.  @perryallan3524  But Tesla is a fantastic success.
    2
  2860.  @aldoa337  Nearly everyone I talked to said the quality has gone way down on the cars made in Mexico.
    2
  2861. As the cost of shipping and foreign labor rises , it is more economical to make products close to home.
    2
  2862. The idea is to get as many companies as possible to make electric cars.
    2
  2863.  @protagonist9716  I would rather be bitten by a dog that didn't have rabies.
    2
  2864. You can pretty much guess this was forced by the people involved to get clicks. Not much going on here, the FSD will correct itself.
    2
  2865. Re-translate; Will the hull of the ship standup to the fire? Answer probably not, it will burn to the waterline.
    2
  2866. By this time, Tesla superchargers should be approaching 20,000, I guess that's more than 10,000.
    2
  2867.  @HANUMAN7454  Their already are some warheads at the bottom of the ocean.
    2
  2868. Have you examined the door locks and hinges?
    2
  2869. I think Sal should not have said he's on a boat.
    2
  2870. That's not the only part that will fall off a Rivian.
    2
  2871. They are a disaster all by themselves, without any help from others.
    2
  2872.  @ThatOpalGuy  Well,actually it is in some cases.
    2
  2873. They won't.
    2
  2874. Many people ignored the sea change in "just in time".
    2
  2875. This is like getting run over at 100 MPH.
    2
  2876. SKI-DOO.
    2
  2877.  @alanmay7929  Please stop eating.
    2
  2878. Elon has repeatedly stated such, he only stays on because the people demand it.
    2
  2879. Impressive, Gary Fisher did that to beat the Russians at chess.
    2
  2880. It is also typically a smokescreen for dragging your feet.
    2
  2881.  @remliqa  The big guy always gets the blame.
    2
  2882. Thanks for telling me about the fine print that I didn't read, because I already knew there was a problem with waranteeIng the battery for stationary use and don't care. I love my Cybertruck, warts and all. Also thanks to the naysayers that didn't buy one so I got mine earlier than I otherwise would have since I am 80 years old and won't live to see the truck retired since it will last for another 45 years at least. I love most of your rants and agree with much of what you say, but to each his own I say. My 1941 Chevy pickup lasted for over 22 years, with rebuilds, and my 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup is still working well after 24 years. I also like my wife's model Y long range.
    2
  2883. That's the reason for 20 million.
    2
  2884. Not me, I will take it as I get it.
    2
  2885.  @lo-ficommie7988  My recollection is getting 13 needles containing 80 some vaccines before going overseas. Maybe my memory of 57 years ago is hazy.
    2
  2886.  @paulstaf  Its your choice.
    2
  2887. That is a misunderstanding of YouTube, its clicks that matter.
    2
  2888. There is no extra or expanded capacity for more models, just more Giga factories.
    2
  2889.  @dgurevich1  That's OK if you don't mind the wait or weight.
    2
  2890. The Russians will, or already have shot out their barrels, there guns will no longer be accurate and soon will stop working altogether.
    2
  2891.  @davestagner  I would rather blast away with words than get real data, it is more fun.
    2
  2892.  @Broken_robot1986  It is out of the control of normal people what insane people will do, even this guy is not under the control of the Secret Service, but he is not a big threat judging by his performance. His mother is the only one that could even possibly be charged with mismanagement. And she may not have had anything to do with it. (It is common for mothers to be the ones that get the blame for mismanaged kids). John Wilkes Booth is probably the only presidential assassin or wannabe that can't blame his mother for his troubles.
    2
  2893.  @jannespor8178  So the whole point is moot.
    2
  2894.  @boyboy-zj6of  They are paid with promises.
    2
  2895. How can you not be baffled, wall street is baffled, they don't understand there are things more important than money.
    2
  2896.  @wyattnoise  Just wait and see how much correction there will be and in the upward direction. (as soon as we get rid of the short sellers).
    2
  2897.  @marwin4348  The gulf between the middle class and the poor is getting to wide, that's an embarrassment. Robots will cure the problem and cause much disruption.
    2
  2898.  @raybod1775  Which means nothing at all. It will not help us (The U. S.) to solve our problems.
    2
  2899.  @BurpTheKitten  Here in the U.S., thats North Carolina.
    2
  2900. Learn or discern.

  2903.  @chase9812  There is a time for peace and a time for war.
    2
  2904.  @greggb1416  If you ever saw a high speed crash, you would know things can be ripped right off their mounts, they don't have to be loose.
    2
  2905. Standard for a corvette burning up. You Tube has many pictures.
    2
  2906.  @davidlloyd1526  Yeah, sure. They don't have any "good" weapons.
    2
  2907. If you don't know Elon, he shows both sides. You are supposed to think.
    2
  2908.  @Deathtizity  Poor is relative, poor as compared to what? The U.S. is poor compared to Finland.
    2
  2909. You don't know what you are talking about. Find out the facts first. Ask what he owns in Washington for instance.
    2
  2910. Elon's stated purpose is to make the world sustainable, not put anyone out of business, stop thinking that way.
    2
  2911. True.
    2
  2912. There won't be very many pictures. Why not add in the other EV's? There still won't be many pictures. Add in ICE cars then, now we have a large enough sample to tell what is going on. ICE car fires are the problem, not electric cars.
    2
  2913. Don't wonder too much; follow the money.
    2
  2914. Ray's "taste" is what most people think, I don't agree with them.
    2
  2915.  @user-ow1bn6qv8q  More and more Tesla parts will be made in the US, as soon as they get ramped up.
    2
  2916.  @brentpresley  Regardless, Tesla is making more and more parts in the US.
    2
  2917.  @chefmovkta7433  My estimates, based on my knowledge of modern warfare, are as little as 30,000 Ukrainians killed and 100,000 wounded. Much, much less than the Russians, since the Russian estimates are based on the same ideas, I would say they are as accurate as can be expected.
    2
  2918.  @ajstyles5704  Slightly demeaning of the poor slobs that were and are being sacrificed. As ex-USAF, I just know what I studied, things are different now, and they will be different-er in the future.
    2
  2919. Makes me wonder why anyone would think this hasn't been done before.
    2
  2920.  @johnye4433  They wanted a consistent media, nothing wrong with that.
    2
  2921. Yeah, but you only weigh 80,000 Lbs at 70 Mph, not 100,000 tons at 7.5 Knots. Much more than 38 times the force.
    2
  2922. That's a real bad mood.
    2
  2923.  @python3574  This was his one chance to show off.
    2
  2924.  @leechowning2712  Of course it will cost a billion dollars.
    2
  2925. Come on now, this is a world wide problem. Some neighborhoods are worse than others, try San Francisco for instance. You probably can't get away with it in Australia but you could connect the car up to 50.,000 Volts and discourage some people. The car is insulated by the tires so just drop a grounding chain for one of the terminals and connect the other positive end to the car body, instant surprise! I'm not talking about killing anybody, this is used on electric fences all the time.
    2
  2926. You got that right, except the Ukrainian part.
    2
  2927. They will be soon though, just scrap laying on the ground.
    2
  2928. Now that you "solved" that one, maybe you can solve the mystery of the cart demon which causes shopping carts to, on their own, run into cars in the parking lot.
    2
  2929.  @raidermoto8371  Doesn't have to be dead either.
    2
  2930.  @-whackd  Life can live without light but not without heat. The energy has to come from somewhere.
    2
  2931. You should explain your last comment better, it is hard to understand unless you know a lot about the subject. Its a 109 degrees here in Peoria, I don't have to say Fahrenheit or that it is not. Peoria, Colorado Peoria, Illinois Peoria, Franklin County, Indiana Peoria, Miami County, Indiana Peoria, Iowa Peoria, Kansas Peoria, Missouri Peoria, Ohio or Peoria, Oklahoma ..
    2
  2932.  @soyoucametosee7860  Here is $1. I have now given you aid. Now give it back.
    2
  2933.  @FutureAzA  Now that was a no-brainer!
    2
  2934.  @stuffbenlikes  First it turned gray, then it fell out.
    2
  2935.  @zoomeraygun1  Lack of trust. You give me your money and I keep it.
    2
  2936. Lets call Sal!
    2
  2937. Where did you get the idea he doesn't take sides?
    2
  2938. Last I heard they didn't have any that worked.
    2
  2939.  @jacqdanieles  A new lease on life!
    2
  2940. Or at least talked among themselves.
    2
  2941. Which they can't do.
    2
  2942. Energy is always the limiting factor, or at least one of them. Take the Russian foolishness in trying to take out Ukraine's utility grid, when they have a very large supply of alternatives, Ukraine rightfully complains, but is laughing at the same time. How long do you think it takes to convert a diesel locomotive to 5 inch wider tracks?
    2
  2943.  @bruceberger8698  You are not wrong, they are getting even for being forced to build stations.
    2
  2944.  @onetwothreefour-s1n  This statement makes no sense.
    2
  2945. Another "tragedy of the commons"?
    2
  2946.  @waldemarlight  A private citizen can be in the Whitehouse, but he has no power except in the minds of his opponents.
    2
  2947. Your crystal ball is better?
    2
  2948. Yes, over hyped as per usual in the modern tech. area.
    2
  2949. Another example of the bell curve!
    2
  2950. I can quantify it right now; Tesla is going through the roof.
    2
  2951. WE actually don't need fact checkers with AI, just give the whole job to AI in the first place. Sure it will lead us off a cliff sooner or later, but won't that be fun?
    2
  2952.  @rogerphelps9939  You could just as well say the U.S. is very much ahead of others in many respects, it is a very different problem. Very long lines and extreme use of power.
    2
  2953.  @jantjarks7946  Are you aware of the uses and advantages of DC transmission lines?
    2
  2954. Which State are you from?
    2
  2955.  @chad9983  You really shouldn't follow people that don't know what they are talking about.
    2
  2956. Not as far as I know, they break safety laws all the time.
    2
  2957.  @wescoleman6390  My current charging window is off peak 8PM to 2PM. It does not take that long to charge.
    2
  2958. Actually for quite a while.
    2
  2959.  @WildRhinoDesert  Or another possibility, from a recent survey, is 100 percent of the people want an EV at a lower price point.
    2
  2960.  @transcrobesproject3625  Ignore facts please, I don't want to hear it.
    2
  2961. There are laws that must be followed by Space-X. Too bad she doesn't know that.
    2
  2962. They never knew it was there!
    2
  2963. Where would you ever get that Idea? Try farming.
    2
  2964. Wow! we have to go back to at least the 18th century to find words to describe Russian stupidity.
    2
  2965. The electric cars made in 1910 were made right.
    2
  2966. Or you could just let the people that actually know what they are doing get the job done.
    2
  2967.  @agnelomascarenhas8990  No, Lewisite was not used because it was produced to late in the war.
    2
  2968. if you are going to take someone to the cleaners, who better?
    2
  2969.  @philcook9967  Just like an ICE car, but cheaper.
    2
  2970. You do what you are best at and leave the rest to others.
    2
  2971.  @sarahrosen4985  Nope.

  2975.  @akira28shima32  It is only in recent years that any truck could finish the Bahia 1000.
    2
  2976.  @FutureAzA  What is the risk? Stay off private property.
    2
  2977. Artillery is being eliminated or worn out or run out of ammunition.
    2
  2978. I only give help when asked.
    2
  2979.  @Michael-rl5ki  If you need an excuse, any excuse will do.
    2
  2980. Miles of mines.
    2
  2981.  @ferdinandkraft857  But not based on science, which doesn't make it wrong, just not based on science. Study emergence, maybe someone will come up with a provable idea.
    2
  2982. Do the times make the man or the man make the times?
    2
  2983. That's exactly the problem, corrupt governments.
    2
  2984.  @mikedx2706  Have you seen the spaghetti in one of those?
    2
  2985. I'm pretty much a light weight in math, so it doesn't weigh me down quite so much.
    2
  2986. EV's beat hybrid on all counts, I always have range anxiety when I drive one of my ICE cars and have to stop for gas all the time. Whereas with my Tesla I didn't even have to worry about it. It pre-planned its 1,850 mile route and just drove itself to the nearest charger when it needed to and I could get out and stretch my old legs. (It even pre-conditioned the battery automatically). Amazing! I already saved over $2,000 just on gas alone.
    2
  2987.  @RiosMensRights  That will be true eventually. Having access to the network means only part of the network and only some of the chargers at them, not all, about half.
    2
  2988.  @UzumakiNaruto_  What will you do when there are no gas stations? Tesla is cheaper than the average ICE car right now. A lot cheaper if you consider lifetime cost. Even cheaper still when you consider saving your life by driving the world's safest car.

  2989.  @popcorn32145  Check the truckers driving rules, you are likely a very unsafe driver if you stop so seldom. Or else you don't have a wife or even kids with you. If you did, you could not stop for 10 min at a time (try 20-30 min.) and would still be very unsafe.

  3011. A similar pressurized water reactor would run at 900 degrees F and 900 lbs pressure to the turbine this is a very low temp and pressure for safety reasons. Modern coal fired plants run at 1000 degress F and 1,800 lbs pressure, which varies. The danger from nuclear use is always over hyped, so you can easily be misled by the reporters. But the worst case danger is still there, just not likely. The last reactor was commanded to be shut down by the Russian authorities but the plant operators did not follow orders because it was needed to make process steam and other uses to keep the plant safe, it should be in a hot shutdown state.

  3017. A classic example of cutting off your nose to spite your face, the CCP wants to steal more from the companies in China and at the same time stopping them from making more money. They are truly corrupt. That is why the Chinese economy is doing badly, you can only take so much out before it collapses on itself. Chinese companies are moving to other countries and the workers are following. The CCP have lost their mandate from heaven. I even heard the other Chinese companies are mad at Tesla for paying their workers twice the going rate.

  3189.  @user-je3sk8cj6g  Well you can shortly rejoin Trump supporters then.
    1
  3190. The U.S. always prepares for a war with China and Russia, this is not news.
    1
  3191. The answer is no, they are not as important. They are still important just as every thing that uses fossil fuel is. You have to look at the whole picture over time, not just one thing.
    1
  3192.  @Peter-ud9bx  You can't tax Tesla because it is not unionized, all workers in Germany are members of a union.

    1
  3197.  @tulanzuya  Learn more facts.
    1
  3198. Actually, Tesla has so much money they don't know what to do with it, what's why the interest. They have put all the money that is reasonable and proper into expansion.
    1
  3199. Ever hear of speeding up the production line?
    1
  3200. Even I could figure this out, he is an easy target
    1
  3201. This is not a secret, the CCP has been systematically raping China since they started, their plan has always been to take all the money and leave, many more will do the same as the country falls apart, leaving the citizens to "hold the bag" as it were. They never cared about the people, and have lost their mandate from heaven, leaving China to collapse in a war to take Taiwan, covering up what they have truly done.
    1
  3202. The bureaucrats just won.
    1
  3203. Seems very unlikely.
    1
  3204. We MIGHT have told them.
    1
  3205. I've been saying they ought to get after the illegal "short" sellers of Tesla stock, but I didn't realize how big the problem was..

  3209. The solution has already unfolded, you have been warned.

  3210. People forget there are really two of you in there.
    1
  3211. Quite.
    1
  3212. Of course you can here in the free world, I do.
    1
  3213. I would agree if it was a 1963 BMW 750 that weighed 1300 lbs and had 55 hp. That thing was fast!
    1
  3214. While you are not trusting the Turks, they are keeping Russian warships out of the black sea, they know who their enemy is.
    1
  3215. Yes that is because traffic is lighter at those times and people are more likely to indulge.
    1
  3216.  @DanHalper  Or, in this case, just right.
    1
  3217. What if "traditional" driving becomes illegal ?
    1
  3218. Proof that it does work is the price. There are only so many ships.

  3219.  @andym1223  The world disagrees with you, it is the most popular car in the world right now.

  3223. That would be alright as long as its alright for Musk to get rid of the board because he is the brand.
    1
  3224. Hold on, they are coming.
    1
  3225. GM has always lied, so why give them any credit at all?
    1
  3226. You are getting more and more off kilter, if a product goes up by double, over a period in time, it is cheaper than it was because of inflation, and all the worlds money is connected to the U.S. dollar. It is a scheme that has a failure point we haven't reached yet, but will.
    1
  3227. That non-issue was taken care of a long time ago. People just lied.
    1
  3228. I see no difference here, Adam Clayton Powell got elected in jail. In the end all politicians are the same.
    1
  3229.  @yvonnenoel7206  As anyone that knows a thing about the system is aware of, voting for the same thing will get you nowhere, that is no change at all. Washington needs to be stirred up, that's why the people elect people like Trump, a populist.
    1
  3230. The CCP's insistence in printing counterfeit U.S. money will lead to a complete collapse of the Chinese financial system due to lack of confidence in the government.

  3231. One thing you said might be wrong. There is no such thing as bad pr, only no pr.

  3237. You have to break a law to go to prison, he did not get time for crashing a plane and posting it on YouTube. He should have gotten prison for being stupid and not knowing how to do a proper mea culpa, unfortunately, that's not illegal.

  3238.  @robertlong3561  I do like my pizza crust flaky.😁
    1
  3239. It is said; I don't know this, that it is propelled by the wheels turning.

  3240.  @Bdavis2475  You have to actually think about it.
    1
  3241. They did that in the thirty's, not just now.

  3242. Back in 1963 it was the same, BMW was going bankrupt, they had a nice run.

  3246.  13ased_American  We have agreements not to shoot down civilian planes, or any for that matter.
    1
  3247.  @jaymesnin  Read it again, please.
    1
  3248. You are mixed up between established companies and new innovative companies doing things that have never been done.
    1
  3249.  @cpt.calamarigaming634  No, most have heat pumps because they copied Tesla, which is a good idea.
    1
  3250. Just goes to show how many things you have to do wrong to crash a Tesla. (In most ordinary accidents its 6 or 8). The Tesla display does show outside temp., but you have to actually look at it. Its easy for the ground to freeze before the air temp. is 32 deg. F. in the mountains because the road surface radiates heat directly into space. The ground is what actually heats the air in the first place. You just have to learn these things, the car can't read your mind (yet).

  3251.  @carquestionsanswered  If you are trying to move cars to make a living, how can you do so by keeping cars on a lot? Demurrage, Demurrage, Demurrage.

  3252. You don't seem to realize what the same means. Every individual car varies within limits.
    1
  3253. The CCP, I agree but it is to late for Twitter.
    1
  3254. Just wait until you hear what is really happening in China, (if you ever do).
    1
  3255.  @FutureAzA  Lets see... I invested $16,000 at $2.70 a day savings that means it will take 16years to pay it off. But that does not take into consideration the lost opportunity cost. $9,675 earned @ 3% interest.
    1
  3256. I don't think they want this for future tests.
    1
  3257. Except they need replacement much less than originally thought, maybe 10 years.
    1
  3258. Can you fire a government employee for being stupid?
    1
  3259. Prototyping is easy, production is hard.

  3262.  @lemongavine  Now that is a no brainer, no one told me and I knew it.

  3263.  @ayebrow  Isolation. (Notice Sol is buried in the word.)

  3264.  @finned958  No, it won't they live next to the richest country in the world.
    1
  3265.  @arthouston7361  You forget that the grid IS supporting the load. Just wait and see what will happen. Elon to the rescue!
    1
  3266.  @ayebrow  Liberty ships were built at the rate of 4days 15 hours for the last one, but started at 244 days for the first one. Edison was working on batteries, so the evolution has been a long one.
    1
  3267. Fake controversy, been done for years.

  3270.  @TheCostofAutism  To many unknowns.
    1
  3271. That's about the closest I have heard to a reasonable idea of what is going on, they may even give some of Prigozhin's money back. Let's get ahold of Prigozhin and make a deal with him to come over to our side and make lots of money since they already have stolen all the Russian peoples money. There is an unlimited opportunity in the West.
    1
  3272. But we need to burn up less of them.
    1
  3273. You might want to think about Ukraine.
    1
  3274. Inflation comes from printing to much money to get out of the debit spiral, it never works. Read "This time is different" or "When money dies" or one of many other books on the subject.
    1
  3275. Things take time, the piper will be paid.
    1
  3276.  @TheSpartan3669  True, but it helps to know what you are talking about.

  3277.  @davidbeppler3032  I can and have done it better... what are you talking about?😁😁
    1
  3278.  @jonitan76  You cannot permanently unlock a Tesla, you don't know how this works. People are being fooled by their wishes.
    1
  3279. Its all hype, The big three never intended to sell any electric vehicles, only Tesla is real.
    1
  3280. Your click-bait headline reminds me of a title for a book, "We almost lost Detroit".
    1
  3281.  @GabrielSBarbaraS  Remember what happens when you ass-u-me.
    1
  3282.  @kamsunleong6648  That will happen and soon.

  3283. Making a car for the Chinese market is not the same thing as other markets, except maybe India, where the car has to be much more rugged.

  3289.  @mnorth1351  But it is so much fun to misquote people.
    1
  3290. A cardboard car sounds like fun! They make food out of it in China.
    1
  3291. This will increase the death rate of 240Z drivers. Just buy a Tesla instead.
    1
  3292. I thought Ford did that around 1910. $500 for a Model A (in 1928) anyone?
    1
  3293. Being in Beijing is not a winning strategy for any car company except for Tesla. Economies of scale can't be maximized with many factories making the same car, unless you use Tesla's approach.
    1
  3294.  @lizz7805  So all the Africans that came over here are not American? You don't know the rules. Its simple, if you become a citizen, you are American.
    1
  3295. My ears are deaf because of all the shouting.
    1
  3296. I don't understand why you don't know what the Russian problem is or you are just not saying. To kill the snake, you cut off the head of the snake, leaving the remaining pieces to fend for themselves. The Russian military has no interest in fighting a real war after 70+ years of sitting on their butts fat and happy counting their stolen proceeds. They rotted from the inside, as any corrupt organization will.

  3297. How is .23 more than .23? Just askin'.
    1
  3298. Ever hear of the Shmoo's, Al Cap's invention?

  3299. That's not heading toward the ultimate car; one part.

  3300.  @abicol6010  Yes.

  3301. What? Are you civilized?
    1
  3302.  @OhHeyItsShan  You just ignore the problem, then there is no problem.

  3303.  @diydrivenGA  After 3 years , points to a worn out battery, not other problems.
    1
  3304.  @birdmandrugstories  Not any more.
    1
  3305. That is no explanation, why did he do what he did? Elon does not do, without a reason. Of course anybody can make a mistake.
    1
  3306.  @mgmacius  If revenge is the driving motive, I don't want anything to do with the people or the situation.
    1
  3307.  @nickmcconnell1291  So that's how you keep the ball rolling?
    1
  3308. Since the state of the art has improved because of Tesla, Ford no longer meets that criteria. As an example, 250 ish feet down Devils Slide, all 4 survived. Please don't try this at home.
    1
  3309. That would make a problem we don't have.
    1
  3310. The whole car or just parts? The bigger the part the more of a problem.

  3313. This is just click bait, we all know the truth, just want to deny world heating. Being in the Southern Hemisphere, Australia will die off before the Northern Hemisphere, then we will know who was right.
    1
  3314.  @michaelmarshall1713  You really should get educated. The earth goes through many cycles at once, this was well known by the Russans over a hundred years ago. Man was put on the earth by God to dominate and control it. Being a good steward means understanding what is going on. We are 85 plus thousand years into an internecine period. All previous ones lasted much shorter times. We have heated the earth up so much that we have not gone into an ice age yet, but we will. But first lets burn the place up, what do you say?
    1
  3315. Definitely shows what not to do for a practical car.

  3316.  @justanoman6497  You have a point, but a small point. All people are natural shots, training would be good and is not restricted by laws.

  3320. The trouble is, most people don't think.

  3321. There will be no electric "hurdles" grid or otherwise.

  3322. Switch to another company.

  3323. So far, all show and no go.
    1
  3324. There's no way I believe what was said, I remember the Hindenburg.
    1
  3325. True, and "running out" is not the correct phrase. We didn't know you could run a war so cheaply, now we do. The new cannon is much cheaper than missiles.
    1
  3326.  @dewdropin2010  I chose 1,2 and 3.

  3336. We had one of those HH-43's in the fire dept at Seymour Johnson AFB in 1966. They had wooden blades made in N.Y. That helicopter was flown in Laos to pick up downed pilots. Cruse speed 105 mph. It was used for crop dusting near Buckeye AZ.

    1
  3359. Re program, no problem.

  3360.  @G82Watts  Just to do it at all is audacious. Elon does not lie, ever. Because he can't. He is optimistic.
    1
  3361. Who said? do you believe everything anyone says? Of course there are ways to repair anything. Is it worth it? Does it operate in an acceptably safe way? Whose dime? Do you take the risk or does someone else? etc.

  3383. Just read the opposite into it.

  3387. China's economy is not a success story, it is a lie fostered by the CCP to hide the fact that they have robbed the people and taken all the money out of the country and are now looking to rob Taiwan. The place is falling apart as we speak.

  3396. That's been worked on for the last 3 to 4 thousand years, I would have thought you would know that. As a manager of a state agency, I kept a careful eye on the money, surprising as it might be, the most likely people to misuse it were (and still are) the "higher ups".

  3450.  @CiaranMcHale  That is not the way the car is built. The major reason for giga-casting is to align the parts making assembly faster, other advantages are just "Along for the ride". Generally, welds would not have to be undone. The aluminum is the smallest part of the cost, not the most expensive part which is initially the machinery than the labor after the machinery is amortized.

  3469. Hey, they are all made in the same factory, brand doesn't matter, just like many cars. I had a Kitchen-Aid that caught fire at 11:30 PM, scared my wife, who yelled at me hey! our brand new refrigerator is on fire!. So I got out of bed and pulled the plug. Next morning I called the Dealer and he brought me a brand new Maytag, (same unit, different brand). Its been working fine until the control board went out, so I went down to the Maytag dealer and got a new control board for $35, put it back together (you really have to take these things apart to get at the parts). Later I sold it to my Realtor when I bought a newer house that had two refrigerators in it. The Koreans really shouldn't let the Chinese make their appliances for them, they tend to reduce to junk after a while.

Some of the floor had to be dug up to replace rusted out conduit. Its still working 35 years later, so must have been done well.

  3502. By the look of the results so far, you are wrong on many fronts, Russian armor is easily defeated by killing their supply lines, which are soft targets with practically no cover because of the very long supply lines. Russian troops are not hardened fighters, they leave as soon as they can, any way they can. Surrender is an option. The Russian trucks and the Russian guns are being used up at an unsustainable rate. Look at the battle field, the situation on the ground dictates what equipment is needed and can be used, the warthog will be very effective in the limited numbers that can be used. It is a Russian solders nightmare.

  3529. I certainly have run across some very intelligent people that had emotional problems. Just grab a hold of them and sit them down and tell them just exactly what is what.

  3633.  @skataskatata9236  Well, only petroleum fuels and coal are obsolete. Fuel is still used to run cars, from coal, photovoltaic, wind, water and atomic power. It is just more efficient and cleaner for the environment. Approximately 1 million people die from exhaust gasses and 1 million die from auto accidents every year.

  3634.  @djtaylorutube  You seem to be saying that it is the regulations that are the reason for the change, when it is economics. Many people die each year from pollution.

  3673.  @miriamvivo4279  This happened more than once, by the way. How about the Tesla that was going so fast it hit about ten cars and turned over 7 times in China? No one killed and none of the injuries were serious.

  3674.  @seoulfood211  You really should study aesthetics and beauty, the simplest shape and form is the most beautiful. Chinese and other cultures know this. We in the west are truly ignorant. Thank you for leaving the car you would have bought for someone that can better appreciate it.

  3684. Why say things that are not true and can be easily checked? (At least there is no evidence and Bill Gates denies it). IBM made that mistake by putting their BIOS at the upper addresses available at the time instead of the lower addresses. No geek would ever think that was enough and I did not at the time.
    1
  3685. Money does not even enter into it unless you are a lawyer trying to make a killing. Its about power and who will be in control, envious money grubbing persons want to set Tesla up to take it over and usurp the companies stated purpose so they can rape the company and the shareholders. Which is exactly what they will do if Elon loses control.

  3693. Jeez, how dumb can you get. Starlink gave control of the system used in Ukraine to the military months ago. The Russians are stupid if they think they can get away with using them. Its simply a matter of sorting out the civilian units that were "sold" illegally to the Russians, they will be eliminated. These things put out traceable signals.

  3707. Wouldn't "something" happen before August anyway? What about the panic in China? The CCP took all the money out of China and put it in their foreign accounts and now the people are waking up to a bankrupt country.
    1
  3708. I thought I had it made until the tsunami hit me.
    1
  3709. Well, I for one am not having any "hysteria". Nobody hurt or killed in all these sightings, might be a good idea to not shoot them down. We have seen UFO's over N.J. in the past, no one knew what they were then either. Although these are probably just people flying them.
    1
  3710. You forget (conveniently) the reason for the price cuts as stated by Tesla. The Chinese government was offering rebates under a certain price, so Tesla complied to give the people some help, increasing demand approximately double. That was a double price cut. Where's your sense? Things change, this is a dynamic world.
    1
  3711. Already did.
    1
  3712. You forgot these are VWs.
    1
  3713. You and other people can say what you want, but the facts remain. Treating your enemy humanely has always paid dividend's; it is much easier to win when your enemy knows you will not shoot him if he surrenders.
    1
  3714. I keep repeating myself, Russians do not fight well off of Russian soil, that is the real reason to "annex" part of Ukraine, additionally, all thieves try to "own' what they are trying to steal. The problem is people have internet communication today and don't believe what Putin is saying.
    1
  3715. Or make us all rich.

  3716. After all these years people should know this; Mark 6:4 King James Version (KJV) But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house. Meaning he has no standing in his own country or , an expert is someone from more than 75 miles away. There is no mystery here, there are many examples.

  3719.  @AlrienJ  You wouldn't know it by looking at the price either. From a former GM fan since the forty's. Who has seen much worse fitting panels on all other brands on many hundreds of cars, probably thousands. My Tesla model Y has none of the "defects" in this video.
    1
  3720.  @ericb6183  That is the same for me with my 2024 model Y.
    1
  3721.  @jakeko  You can see how a car in software could be much better and cheaper for the same thing. Try getting parts for some of these "cheaper" cars or find a place to repair them for a reasonable fee. At least Tesla will be around to repair their cars even if they need to work on their methods of customer care. The price will come down eventually. My sons VW is an example, the only place to buy tires was the dealer and they weren't cheap. I expect this to change in time.
    1
  3722.  @consolemaster  My model Y has no problems like this, maybe you should trade it in.

  3723. Nobody expects anything from certain countries, we just hope they will get smart.

  3724. They will make even more money. They would have cut prices anyway.

  3725. They would make you wait two years because the line to buy is so long.
    1
  3726. Although as you said it is obvious, people are still being misdirected by false information. who knows why. There is a difference between form factor (4680) and battery chemistry (LiFePO 4). There is no rule that LiFePO 4 batteries can't be made in 4680 form factor.

  3743.  @rogerstarkey5390  Hardly anyone is privy to this, its just like the gas shortage in 1974, when we had 90% of the oil still in the ground. I called them on that one, you called them on this one.

  3759. I hired a lawyer that was a genius in AZ, he got disbarred. Geniuses don't make good lawyers. Both my father and my mother were geniuses by the way.

  3826. Why argue about stuff that we already know? Bad publicity is almost as good, sometimes better than, good publicity, therefore we can say there is no good or bad publicity, there is only publicity. The converse is no publicity, (being ignored) no publicity is death. It goes without saying that free publicity is the best publicity. Elon is the connoisseur of publicity, he knows more than others do. Of course this explanation has been proven many times but people just don't believe it.

  3897. Why not just come right out and say it; There is no such thing as bad publicity, there is only publicity. No publicity is death. If you ignore it it will go away. The best publicity is free publicity. Controversy leads to interest (or holds interest). Knowing these things makes it all very clear and explains the reason why no one in his right mind would spend money on protests, you are giving away free publicity, any thing negative is soon forgotten. You said so yourselves.

    1
  3945.  @Thewall3000  The same can be said about you, emotional arguments don't hold water. Give me real numbers. It is well known what Elon Musk does and says, don't fall for the lies or purposeful misinterpretations.

  3970. Why would anyone think that Tesla couldn't make faster chargers? In certain areas Tesla has the preferred location and in other areas Tesla has the only location. Putting chargers on the street would only work for one car at a time, not a very efficient way to make money.

  3984. Up to 92% of the Russian economy is run on U.S. currency, any Russian would expect him to have U.S. dollars. The Ruble is worthless.

  3985. California is now leading with 100% renewables for a time period on May 8th 2022. With Tesla battery boost, they will extend the time period. They get away with it by exporting over the peak and taking back when the sun goes down to cover the loss.
    1
  3986. A 100 dollar drone is mostly used for looking not carrying. That would be a $1,000 to $10,000 drone. Cheap at twice the price. Putting the planes in hangers would not solve the problem, just make it more interesting.

  4006. No one is out of ideas, the company does not need saving. According to people that actually know, Tesla is way ahead in AI and robotics, having worked in these fields for many years, I can see Tesla is way ahead. Elon has all the best people and has for years now. Everyone else is complaining they get seconds. (How does that feel, if you have to work at another company other then Tesla or Space-X)?

  4013. Elon Musk has many companies, he does not own Tesla or Space-x but does have stock in those companies like many other people, Tesla is among the very few companies with a large diversified ownership. Therefore your statement makes no sense. You are parroting people that are trying to manipulate stock prices to make money. The position of the Republicans must be the position of the majority of Americans that voted them in, making it the most popular position. Even some Democrats see the need to reduce the size of the government since we cannot afford it any longer.

  4019. The tactical situation is different now, and the army's are not evenly matched, that is the Ukrainians are much better than the Russians who are not fighting a modern war. But as the Ukrainians know the Russians will behave like an 18th century army.

  4020. Why do you think Elon just invested in a wireless charging company?

  4051. I remember getting stopped in Branchville, NJ by a town police officer, when I was 18 years old, I am 79 now. He gave me a ticket for going over 15 mph in a school zone on the main street at 10 pm. I took it to court and was going to represent myself. When a lawyer who was there for a different case heard my name being called, he recognized me (I did not know him at the time) and said what was the case about. I told him the circumstances and he said he would represent me pro bono. He asked the officer if he had calibrated his radar recently. The officer said no, he never had. (Its supposed to be done every 2 weeks let us say) Then he asked him if he had measured the distance between the houses on that stretch of road. He said no, never. ( The officer was supposed to actually do it himself and it had to be let us say, closer than 20 feet between houses to be a reduced speed limit.) The judge knew he would have to throw the complaint out, but my lawyer said, after checking with me first that I would plead guilty to a lessor offense that had a $5 fine. Why? Because then they would not bother me and leave me alone when I drove through town. Now there is a smart lawyer!

You are quite wrong about the effect of transportation on the climate, it is mush greater than people think. Its the efficiency that matters, look at it from an engineering perspective. The majority of pollution that is killing us is and has been coming from very inefficient internal combustion motors, that's why we have to get rid of them and the sooner the better. Power plants will have to go, but first ICE transportation. Call a spade, a spade. ICE cars are the villain, just ask the Calif air quality control board, this is fact, not based on speculation. The ICE car was always only a stop-gap until real electric cars were developed. Check history of electric cars such as the 1911 Baker electric. Thomas Edison had an electric car.

  4221. What you don't understand about Rivian, is it is a classic way to get money from investors to line the pockets of the original people and then the company becomes an empty shell, as long as they keep people believing they will make a profit they will keep taking money. This is happening in China right now, and has been the game played by people since the start of the industrial revolution. There is plenty of history about this. PT Barnum was said to say "There is a sucker born every minute." Bezos is a sucker.

At Calif. prices $5 per gallon equal's $200 plus maintenance of $100 per day. So that would be $300 per day. You could trade say 1 hour of charging, good to stop anyway, for $150. Your mileage may vary.

Which I remember very well and it was not in memory of the light bulb but the invention of a practial electric system by Edison and his workers that brought electric lighting to the world which happened long before Tesla even came to the U.S. Henry Ford thought Edison's Lab was so important that he had it dismantled and brought to Dearborn, Mich where it still is along with the Menlo Park workshop. Edison didn't predict the future, he made the future.

  4369. Sure, before I got my Tesla, I went to another charger station with my son and his new VW iD-4, and there was a person standing there that had charged his car at home but never at a charging station. He was having trouble even connecting the car, it just wouldn't work. After watching him for a while, I offered to help and simply juggled the handle so it made contact and worked fine. Those plugs and sockets not a Tesla, are not going to work for very long and probably are one of the things that make the chargers other than Tesla unreliable. But Tesla has released the plug and socket for the new North American standard to help solve the problem.

  4379. Well that Tesla driver proves that not all people like me, that drive a Tesla are smart. Tesla Autopilot does not steer the car so that is why he was using his knees. There is no accommodation for not paying attention and not having your hands on the steering wheel. If he had Full Self Driving and it was on, it would nag him to pay attention and have his hands on the wheel. The driver is responsible just like the pilot of a plane or the captain of a ship. The only way Autopilot would let him drive over the posted speed limit is if he purposely overrode it since it resets at every speed limit sign, he lied, lied, lied. (Autopilot and Full Self Driving are two different things).

  4389. Generally speaking the Ukrainians are taking much more ground than the Russians for very obvious reasons, there is no one to stop them. The Russians are in a lose, lose situation. They have shot out their barrels and are losing ammunition as fast as the Ukrainians can find it. The troop losses are nothing short of astounding. The idea that they can continue to fight in Ukraine is ludicrous. While their supply lines are getting chewed up and spit out by the Ukrainians. The Russians are reaching the end of the line at a fast rate, I wouldn't give them more than till the end of the year.

  4411. My mother owned a BMW car, it cost around $1,595. It weighed 1,500 lbs and had a 750 cc engine with 2 cylinders horizontally opposed, with 55 ft-lbs of torque. We used Good Year tires with 170 tread compound. It would scream up the hill in a hill-climb. It halved the time of the Corvettes, embarrassing the hell out of them. Anyone want to guess how?... It was raining.

  4413. So did you refuse to take the mandatory vaccines for diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus or DTaP, Haemophilus influenzae type B or Hib measles, mumps and rubella or MMR, polio, and varicella to get into school which are required in all states?

  4414.  @b.benjamineriksson6030  Why would a person like Elon Musk for example ever waste his time on politics? Or even myself?
    1
  4415.  @ronthered138  I would like a good home grown cabbage right now rather than one from another country that is months old and rots at the first chance it gets.
    1
  4416.  @ronthered138  Partly true, we need to build up our fighting ability as well as our allies because the Russians and the Chinese only believe in and respect military power. As always, its a dangerous world out there.

  4462.  @markswick4901  Well, at least you know.
    1
  4463. The trouble with changing the world order is that the people that think it would be in their interest are short sighted and generally foul things up instead of fixing them. At least judging by the results so far.

  4471. As an active duty tech in S.E. Asia during the Vietnam War, we fixed our equipment right there, not at the depot level. The commanders were very proud of our ability to do so. We worked 12 hour days to do so. Even repairing Marine radios from A4's (They had the same radios.) This was American made equipment. My father worked for Reaction Motors (Bullpup missle), my twin brother was a bomb jockey (F4Cs) and I was an Aircraft Radio Repairman. It is safe to say the Taliban will never be able to do what we did. It's all just words.

  4472. Think COBAL.

  4473.  @thiloreichelt4199  That happens even on small projects, I designed a system for the AZ Power Auth. and when the Bureau of Reclamation copied it (we gave it to them) they were afraid to change it after their programmer fit it to their specs with a very minor rounding error. He was good at programming and could have changed it.
    1
  4474. Having been a fireman, I can tell you this is standard in a lot of places, cutting corners on maintenance to save money. When I was in the USAF, we had an O-11a that was in such bad shape it couldn't shift into reverse causing a broken arrow at Seymour Johnson AFB when a B-52 bomber hit it.

  4488. Wow! are you off course with wrong information, the captain was Indian, not Ukrainian. How could they divert traffic in seconds, they had longer than that. There were two Baltimore pilots on the ship directing it. How do you stop 112,382 tons at 7.5 to 8 Knots? You don't in that short distance.
    1
  4489. Hard is easy, the impossible takes a little longer.
    1
  4490. I think it would be better to call a spade a spade. Russia is a kleptocracy looking for more people to rob since they have already plundered their own country.

    1
  4514. Charities are not required to pay anything at all, but they still have to file a return. Anyone with no income, like Musk, does not need to file a tax return, unless he has income from something. Owning stock or other assets does not require you to pay income tax and never has.

  4525. As a very intelligent former government worker who was willing to give his expertise practically for free to the state for 18 years, I think you have nothing to say unless you are willing to give the people some of your work years for little pay, or stop complaining since you did nothing to solve the problem. I gave up a job working for a large company to work for the state. (And so did my former secretary).

  4539.  @TAWithiam  Electric has always been the way to go for real work, at least since the 1890's.
    1
  4540. The trouble with that is ICE has no future in a non-polluting world. EV's have always been a better solution, that's why we have diesel-electric locomotives. Up until 1910, there were a lot of electric cars on the road in the U.S. Maximum torque at minimum RPM, more efficient energy conversion.

  4554.  @dampierstucco5778  To many parts, less reliable. Cost much more than all electric and less efficient. Anything else they tell you is a lie. Tesla is proof.

  4555. Quite.

  4556. Come on! How many RR cars would it take to get one shipload of grain out? Russian ports?

  4563. If you put the wheels closer to the body, it would turn over when going around a curve at speed. Check out the Elio, now there's a car to wait a long time for.
    1
  4564. Actually you are wrong and partly correct at the same time, the engineers calculated the Cybertruck would indeed beat the Porsche by using the numbers from the 1/8 mile race. They will have to make an actual 1/4 mile race to prove what they did.

  4565. Try NYC...Ride-share.

  4568. Try 3 million preorders.
    1
  4569. The way it seems and the way it is are two different things. The difference measured between two people in intelligence is not all that great. Training is very important to differentiate people from each other. We all start out with a pre-formed matrix that is inherited. Its what you do with what you have that is important. Elon has gotten down to first principals, most have not. We don't even have any proof that a machine can get much smarter than a human, it is just a guess. A.I. may only give us a speed advantage, not an increase in intelligence. But at the least we can optimize the learning experience.
    1
  4570.  @ageofdoge  Right, he was a founder.
    1
  4571. This does not make it a good idea.
    1
  4572.  @ISuperTed  Elon already said how many factories he will build.
    1
  4573. That's not over producing, why would you make the system less efficient? Desalination is better done with solar heat and pumped hydro energy uses up 15% of the generation just to pump, let alone the transmission and maintenance costs.
    1
  4574. Cool idea.
    1
  4575. It does not matter what the government does, they are wimps. The people will make it happen. I predict an all electric fleet in a short time, because it is cheaper. The same with autonomous vehicles.
    1
  4576. Elon is well aware of the need for a "counter force" and that's why he is preparing himself to counter the counter force, so no one has to much power, he said as much. There is a need in the world for bread and circuses, we all have our place.
    1
  4577.  @goranjosic  Hmm, seems to me that this problem as stated here has been around for a very long time, and not just in this context.

  4583.  @shadeburst  You could get the information you need for example just by reading the Bible. Although many will need someone to tell them what it means.
    1
  4584.  @TilW  Because you would make more money, its called an investment. Or buy stock.
    1
  4585.  @CrazyGaming-ig6qq  So you have heard of dividends?
    1
  4586.  @dangerousdays2052  As a person that has actually studied economics for 70 years, I'd say you shot your mouth off before engaging your brain. Better reread Econ-101.
    1
  4587. And you know this? How?
    1
  4588. Many are speculating, it doesn't change their credibility.
    1
  4589. Many statements made here are factually wrong. For instance strapping boosters on a first stage does not change the fact that they are the first stage, it is not multi-stage. Multi-stage rockets are more efficient than single stage rockets, hence would be useful even if there were no air on the planet, the air has very little to do with it. I could go on from here.
    1
  4590.  @llamaboss1434  Or you could watch them as they starve.

  4594.  @clementdechausay849  It requires to much thought to think for yourself, and takes to much time, just feed me drivel and I am happy. Harry Houdini railed against this for better than 30 years and Orson Welles did also. It is a human problem. Don't blame the messenger, except in this case he should have restrained himself.
    1
  4595.  @hvh377  I have seen the graphs that show the limits of demand, I suggest you educate yourself and go find them and look closely at them. Try a business course. Your idea of limitless demand is not finessed enough. For example, people do not do what you say, they do the opposite in many cases. When water is rationed, the people with money use more water than they were, not less, Showing their superiority in control of their environment.

  4600. Even Chinese owned companies are now leaving China for S. E. Asia. The Chinese workers are leaving China for work or going back to their home provinces.

  4611.  Jack Frost  Of course, he is a clone.

  4612.  @kuchenkoren4051  Now that is silly, we gave them the job in the first place. Imagine if we made all those drones here, that would be worse than all the guns. Drones are bad, except for the ones that I have been flying safely for the last 70 years without any license or anyone saying anything about them at all.

  4614.  @SK-ex3ws  No, everyone wants the Fed to taper before they cause a deep recession.
    1
  4615.  @dstr1  That is patently wrong, newer cars require older cars with less improvements to be sold first.
    1
  4616. GM lost control of the car market back in the 1950's. Remember, what is good for General BullMoose is good for the country.
    1
  4617. Opps! you need to get off drugs!
    1
  4618.  @Commissar0617  Someone conveniently forgot the facts.
    1
  4619.  @smorris281  Actually you are in need of a real Tesla so you can find out the facts before saying stuff. I have one and I know what is going on here. People are the problem because they are ignorant, it remains to find out who did what to whom. Blame can be put on the station or the settings or a number of other things. No one said they were charging slowly, they said it didn't work at all. Just tow the car to the nearest plug and start charging or connect an extension cord. What? you didn't get the wall charger? Shame on you!
    1
  4620. Now how many people are going to get that?
    1
  4621.  @Studio23Media  Yep, I watch them both.
    1
  4622.  @dgtwo3724  True, it has meaning in the way people look at the world today, lets not look the other way while Russia and China do the same thing as might be proposed here.
    1
  4623.  @seanchristophersynthesizer6999  People are people, accept them, brothers can sometimes change.
    1
  4624. Russia just destroyed itself from inside without even a fight.
    1
  4625. How can you get the old information if the old ECM is completely dead?
    1
  4626. Yeah, a few years ago, a driver crushed and killed his wife at a loading dock.
    1
  4627. Really, I started my 5 year old off with a 5 hp. go-cart. He drives very responsibly in L.A. now. I drive a Tesla model Y and don't think it is any different than driving my former Shelby Cobra GT350.😁😁😁 (Better gas mileage though).
    1
  4628. Or even mirrors.
    1
  4629.  @robertimrie3710  I bet they gave up on that when they ran out of gas idling.
    1
  4630. Don't worry, the Chinese are on the job.
    1
  4631. You haven't been to Taiwan.
    1
  4632. Aviation fuel is $10 a gallon, regular gas and diesel is not far behind. Then what?
    1
  4633.  @mujaku  But you die from the other stuff in the exhaust.
    1
  4634. We all have a somewhat limited democracy, those that didn't died, its called rule by the mob.
    1
  4635. Nobody ever feared Putin, its the matter of slowly turning up the heat so the frog does not jump out of the pot before he is cooked.
    1
  4636. Teslas are supposed to crush, that's how they absorb the force of the impact, this is not a proper headline and is misleading.😒😒
    1
  4637. You can DIY.
    1
  4638. There are to many out there, which one are you talking about?
    1
  4639. Most don't go off, some do.
    1
  4640.  @Yngvarfo  It is possible for them to become unstable, especially when disturbed. They seldom go off, but when they do...
    1
  4641.  @Hirome_Satou  One stamps out the fire first, then worries about the other things.
    1
  4642.  @Steve-ev6vx  Our country is in very good shape because we and our allies are awake to the current threats.
    1
  4643.  @HubertofLiege  There is little chance of getting away with that, judging by the uproar.

  4644. Reading the list, it is changing so fast you can't even keep up with the changes.
    1
  4645. Try it I did.

  4647. True, but being smarter makes you rich.

  4648. Some say these things are moving at incredible speed and change direction on a dime. How about a laser light show?
    1
  4649. I don't think I need to tell anybody I own Tesla stock anymore, you would have to be an Idiot not to.
    1
  4650.  @blknsxy10  Heed the advice and take care of your head.
    1
  4651.  @Patop2002  They are destroying Russia faster than Ukraine.
    1
  4652. You should stick to 69.
    1
  4653. That means all are dead.
    1
  4654. I think you are a little late to have any effect on the election with this video.
    1
  4655. It is a natural tendency of people to get a swelled head and over step their bounds. Kick them out.
    1
  4656.  @virginiamoss7045  You get what you pay for, Phoenix, AZ just raised law officers pay. A little power goes to some peoples heads, get rid of them.
    1
  4657.  @Loosesapphire5135  You have to understand the law of supply and demand.
    1
  4658.  @kevint1910  I would agree, except it has not been established that the police were doing anything wrong.

  4659. Sabot!

  4660.  @rogerstarkey5390  Depends where you take your "bus".

    1
  4662. Why don't you make a scary movie?
    1
  4663. What is curious about stupidity and lies?
    1
  4664. More people say Trump is a dictator than say Zelensky is a dictator should make it apparent that these are only words and just a few people are paying attention to the noise. Just wait and see.
    1
  4665. Its called hubris.
    1
  4666. Different circumstances. Once, in NJ a teenage not experienced driver crashed his pickup on US22, killing ten including himself, he was never charged.
    1
  4667. Be careful not to use the words operational and breakdown in the same sentence.😁
    1
  4668.  @biljanacvjetinovic6204  The Ukrainians definitely set the record. Be careful, you will find yourself on the front lines if you have just a little more intelligence than the usual Russian picked off the street.
    1
  4669. Front wheel drive should be adequate; since global warming (really, I did it for years.)
    1
  4670. Except the Ukrainians are doing a pretty good job of using them against the Russians.
    1
  4671.  @wolfmantroy6601  Unless you consider the first guy lucky, you have to concede that he was in a different class than the second one is.
    1
  4672. All politicians are the same the world over. (except slightly less corrupt in countries like the U.S.).
    1
  4673. In my dreams; I own Tesla shares.
    1
  4674.  @Deilwynna  You could be very wrong about that, they can be modified.
    1
  4675. Why worry about stupid? Less parts means less to go wrong. Electrical, Electronics is and always was more reliable than mechanical devices. If you don't like physics, go take a hike. My 2008 Nissan Altima Hybrid was more reliable than previous ones, 15 years in the Arizona heat killed it. The Tesla model Y (wifes car) and my Cyber truck are better built and more reliable than anything made by another manufacturer to date. Plenty can be said about Tesla's customer service, but little can be said about their engineering and build quality. I expect my vehicles to last the rest of my life.

  4676. No, he will change his mind (if he hasn't already). He is just expressing the thinking of the many.
    1
  4677. I've always used your methods, but now I'm going to put cameras on my car.
    1
  4678. So he was the only one with experience? That makes a difference.
    1
  4679. Historically, China is very likely to have subversion, civil war, precisely because of the disadvantages you mention here. .
    1
  4680. Its the Russians that are complaining about your posts.
    1
  4681. My twin brother never forgot the time I was playing around with dynamite fuses and he was working on our 1941 Chey pickup truck. After he had a battery explode on him, he was touchy about explosions. I used the battery in the truck to set off the cap and he jumped up and hit his head on the hood. He chased me all around with me laughing at his reaction to my mistake, not realizing how he would react.

  4682.  @Maintainingabadtrip  The answer is because they are not geniuses. And who cares?
    1
  4683. Just wait.

  4684. Just goes to show you, some people are smarter then others.
    1
  4685. Scam, scam, scam.

  4686. What?! Be logical? Even-handed? Is this the American way?
    1
  4687. At the lower temperatures there, concrete would cure better inside.
    1
  4688. Why don't people want to tell the truth? Putin is running a kleptocracy in Russia, as soon as there is nothing left to steal, they will (and did) attack their neighbors to steal everything they have.
    1
  4689. Bill Gates is unhappy, he is not the number one. Don't listen to him about Elon. However, he does have a good organization for philanthropy. Have you ever read Super Man #1 comic book?
    1
  4690. Ah, but there is.
    1
  4691.  @wayneessar7489  That will change.
    1
  4692.  @Sapiens_Imperialis  Yes, all religions theologians accept that there is only one God. I discussed this with them at a conference in Thailand back in the mid 1960's.
    1
  4693.  @Wicked_Knight  There is only one God according to all religions. Anything else is false teaching. If you actually think about it, that is the correct answer.

    1
  4697. Not a thing, Germany has enough natural gas for the winter. There is 100 tankers running between the U.S. and Europe. They even hang out in the Atlantic waiting for a higher price, hopefully they will get screwed. Check the price of gas in Europe.
    1
  4698. ?

  4702. We have done such things before, its the only way to handle the Russians.
    1
  4703. Any energy storage system as dense will have the same problem.
    1
  4704. I can guarantee that the port makes a difference in the accident rate, it is just a different way of looking at life.
    1
  4705.  @stuborn-complaining-german  You people are over estimating Russian soldiers.
    1
  4706. Being a former fireman, I agree.
    1
  4707.  @irri4662  You must remember that China is the country responsible, not Australia.
    1
  4708.  @irri4662  I was pointing out your point.
    1
  4709.  @iraisaacs4446  Rock, paper, scissors?
    1
  4710. All Model Y's are essentially the same.
    1
  4711. Them Russian generals really shouldn't have sold all those tanks to the Ukrainians.
    1
  4712.  @nubbynubs123  Well they are doing a good job of taking our diesel fuel at a higher price than we offer, makes our price go up also. Blame the Russians.
    1
  4713.  @Yattayatta  You are way optimistic with your efficiency.
    1
  4714.  @nubbynubs123  Early days. John Henry beat the steam drill, we can do it. From an ex-miner.
    1
  4715.  @Yattayatta  You are getting close to the practical.
    1
  4716.  @alexmanojlovic768  We do the same with shipping oil.
    1
  4717.  @thomaswilson2917  Just ask Tesla for a new 16 Volt battery
    1
  4718.  @dontbanmebrodontbanme5403  Ah, but on my cars when door is opened by the manual latch, the window rolls down, both the model Y and the Cybertruck.
    1
  4719.  @eziej2215  Its engineered that way, in case of emergency just grab the manual latch.
    1
  4720.  @jasoncheung7654  Where did you get this information? It's not true.
    1
  4721. You fell for the propaganda. Consider we are dealing with a Nuclear power.

  4722.  23lkjdfjsdlfj  Firing squad?

  4723. Russia has a short memory, they lost in the "cold war" because we out spent them.
    1
  4724. This is more like co-operation than competition. Why reinvent the wheel?
    1
  4725. No, don't do that, I worked in the mines.(underground).
    1
  4726. I can rewind motors, but not Tesla's. I bought cars that ran for as little as $25. I paid $35,000 for my 2000 Chevy Silverado.
    1
  4727. So you haven't read the papers the last 6 years? That's OK, I didn't either.
    1
  4728. Just add an 's.

  4729. I will believe this when I see it, their product does not look like it has all the bugs out yet.
    1
  4730.  @metricstormtrooper  There are none.
    1
  4731.  @jantjarks7946  The only reason, and I mean the only reason that charging networks go bankrupt is because the companies want to go bankrupt. They were never in it for the long haul.
    1
  4732.  @yo2trader539  What you are actually saying is Toyota is not in the business of selling hydrogen powered trucks. That is correct.

  4734. River water is not so salty. If you drive through salt water, rinse it off well.
    1
  4735. I am average. I will crawl in a hole and die because Tesla costs so much. Until the Cyber truck comes out.
    1
  4736. It's not really unusual for Corvettes to protect the driver, they are plastic (Fiberglas) which looks like it explodes in an accident, absorbing much of the shock.
    1
  4737. 3000 years ago? Well then 4000 years ago.
    1
  4738. It is because of Indian corruption, no one trusts them.
    1
  4739. Well, you get fuel at your local Pharmacist, everyone knows that. (well at least in 1910). How do you remove all that ash? (horse shit) better to pollute the air where nobody can see it killing them.
    1
  4740. But the grid is handling millions of electric cars, where have you been?
    1
  4741. Don't forget the Chinese are consummate liars and aren't doing anything close to the propaganda they spew.
    1
  4742.  @superbear617  That's because of greed. They do not care about the environment.
    1
  4743.  @Beatles4Sale.  The people live in one area and the wind and solar are in another, so they build coal plants to keep the money in their area.

  4744. I used brute force, I like your approach better and cheaper. I built my first computer in 1974, the Mark 8, I still have the magazine but not the computer.
    1
  4745. Don't worry, all the things that could be invented have been invented.
    1
  4746.  @737smartin  I hold Tesla in high regard, so they have a sterling reputation. Cybertruck will never backfire. I find no difference in Making contracts and taking $$s for prototypes in comparison to mass produced automotive practices.
    1
  4747.  @cyclopsvision6370  So you can actually read, just as I did.

  4764. With FSD.
    1
  4765. I'd really rather have a Tesla.
    1
  4766. They have tried for decades, but with little success. It is a danger that we always face.
    1
  4767. So we give them nothing and let them fail.
    1
  4768. They may even produce more product than Lucid.
    1
  4769. Why bother? Just scrape him aside like other road kill.

  4775. Pretty easy to see there was no one inside the car, no blood. Looks like a bomb went off.
    1
  4776.  @Titan-zn3fs  Quite true, the Russian government slurred up a hornets nest.
    1
  4777.  @ronaldbell7429  Must be using Occam's razor. The point is to keep the Russians guessing so the job becomes impossible.

    1
  4779.  @marinama7  yes, the robots will go poof! (Change from 13 days ago).

  4780. What exactly do you think just happened?
    1
  4781. Don't forget the tax ramifications for all these people. And that they want to get rid of their dealers.
    1
  4782. It seems this is happening as we speak.
    1
  4783. They could have and eventually did tap the cables.

  4786.  @exsappermadman25055  But you won't see the signal.
    1
  4787. Bill Gates has the biggest charity fund in the world, he hardly needs any advertising or help from anybody; however free advertising is the best advertising and adversity gets attention.
    1
  4788. Now that would be funny!

  4796. Apparently none of your viewers didn't get the message.😁 The Onion says you don't have to explain satire.
    1
  4797. You seem to think people will have to keep charging secret, actually, people will have to keep their use of gasoline and diesel fuel secret.
    1
  4798. Well, you really didn't confirm anything at all, I am disappointed.
    1
  4799.  @mostlypeacefulmisterputin  You really need to pull yourself together. You can as a citizen pass any law you see fit. Just get enough people together and do it.
    1
  4800. I see that you have put the circumstance before the idea, its likely the other way around, the idea of changing the world may come before the increase in wealth to do it. At least in my experience. Since there is a relatively small window of opportunity to have an effect on the world right now, I applaud any person that is willing to try; we will see what works. Soon the population of the world won't matter much because we will have reached the age of abundance for all people, and the population will go down precipitously. It is to late for anything to stop this outside of a huge natural disaster wiping out the earth. Remember, we are our own worst enemy. The sooner we make the change the better for all people.
    1
  4801. If you don't tighten up your laws you will end up with the same problems we have, caused by liberal thinking.
    1
  4802. I could , but I won't accuse you of false advertising when you use the word "free", there is no such thing as a free lunch. The customer always pays. Perhaps "no additional cost"?

  4803. Local governments can't make it rain.

  4817.  @cruiser97eric1  Extensions anybody?

  4824.  @BTinSF  Very true, but the Africans are worse toward blacks, I did not misstate the facts here. One African country still holds black slaves although they say it is against the law.

  4825. I wouldn't panic over inventory going up 2,000 this is probably seasonal. People don't buy in the winter.

  4828. You got that right.

  4829.  @ThirtytwoJ  Think before you act?
    1
  4830. It should be easy to calculate though. Truck weight being the same minus max gross weight of 82,000 lbs. Actual test seems to indicate you can carry 1,000 lbs more than a diesel and on flat surface got 500 mile range, I can see why Mercedes has a problem with that, just better engineering. Time will tell.

  4835. Texas' power grid was not decimated by any meaning of the word. The grid went down partially, for a short time because it was frozen, it was not destroyed. Some millions of people were out of power in Mexico as well.

Do you realize the Ukrainians have made considerable amounts of the Russian equipment over the years? Have you noticed the lack of Russian air in Ukraine? etc. Did you notice the lack of Russian equipment success on the battlefield? Do you know what that means for Russian military equipment sales to other countries? Are you aware of the use of American components in Russian hardware? etc, etc. Let alone the oil problem.

  4894.  @user78405  This is actually a problem. The US can literally spend every other country into the ground leaving nothing but scraps for the others to pick up. How do I know this? Because we did it before, several times and we learned how. Don't get in the way.

  4934. I'd guess they need Tesla's Full Self Driving.
    1
  4935. Mostly correct. One thing about people is they focus on the negative. What about all the people that have their lives saved by FSD? It is almost never mentioned. I guarantee the insurance companies are paying attention. Being one of those that like and understand technology, I can contrast my thinking with others that won't or can't understand. Read "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" by Robert M. Pirsig. My wife and I currently drive a 2023 Tesla Model Y with Full Self Driving and a Tesla Cybertruck which will have FSD when Tesla gets around to putting it in. There are currently 2 million people a year killed by our automotive transportation system, that could be reduced by at least 75%, just like Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Part of that is accidents and part is breathing the exhaust fumes. (At least 60% of accidents are caused by impaired drivers). People are the worst drivers and they are not doing much to get better. With no evidence, I would guess that if FSD were on, they would not have run off the road, therefore it was probably off and they thought it was on being they were in a drunken fog.

  4938. Ah, come on! we know that the 51'st state is just a canard to put forth the idea that no one, particularly the Russians and Chinese should be allowed to take over another country by force. Same with the idea of "buying" Greenland. We love all our allies.

  4943. Take a longer view, the cost of electric cars is dependent on many things. The cost of electricity has historically gone down, not up. Economies of scale mean the price of electricity will go down, price of fuel will go down as the fuel is changed to less costly fuels like sunlight and wind, eventually Fusion power.

I told him that when the ink went away the wart would fall off. It did. Lesson from this is you can fool yourself and even others. That's what is happening here. DR. John is a shill.

Why, they will not pass go or collect $200 dollars, they will proceed at high speed to kill themselves. Why does Tesla limit speed? They know how stupid some people are.

  4994.  @wheezzl  The real question is is it better to be hit by a Tesla or another vehicle. Say a ford or Chevy (GM) pickup. The answer is new Ford and Chevy and other large pickups kill 10% more than other vehicles because of their large frontal area, something not found on electric vehicles because of wind resistance (drag).

Even the Chinese companies are leaving. There is a massive movement of millions of Chinese out of China to other countries for jobs. The rest are being forced back to the farms they came from in the first place. China is much reduced as the factory for the world because they killed the goose that laid the golden eggs by getting to greedy. I guess they should have read Marx.

I am a former grid operator and I know what the grid can do and the changes that are being made are needed for completely different reasons than charging electric cars, which is incidental to the real use of the grid. Renewables dictate how the grid will operate from now and into the future, there is a tremendous amount of power that has to be moved from one place to another depending on where the generation is coming from and going to. loads such as EV charging are going to be a necessity to use the system efficiently. We will be using much more power as we change over to an all electric economy. Trains and trucks will run on electric power as well as all industrial processes. When the cars need charging, not at hours when people are going home, but late at night, other uses like cooking and air conditioning and factory use will be off line. Right now we are building 62 new nuclear plants in the U.S. for example. These will need to be run at a high power level needing electrical load at night, besides charging batteries for the peak use in the daytime. Solar is already supplying more power than can be used in Calif. and Texas during certain daylight hours.

In Thailand, I could understand what they were saying but could not speak Thai. They said things about me that were not bad, but did say some not appropriate things about the Thai women we were with which we ignored so as to not pick a fight with them. It was fun playing Thai chess on the street in Bangkok 16 Thai against 1 American. They couldn't beat me and I couldn't beat them..

  5293. What is your definition of a powerful bomb? Anything less than a 500 lb bomb equivalent has little military use, except in the creative ways the Ukrainians are using them to harass the Russians. It takes a lot of hand grenades to make a difference, that's why rocket propelled grenades have come into fashion. Of course you could always use the excuse that you are really only trying to wound your adversary, not kill him.

  5377.  Tron-Jockey  All wrong, fossil fuel use is decreasing so much that the air we breath is already measurably cleaner. Peak oil will never arrive because we burned the other guys oil before our own and have enough for hundreds of years even if we did not stop using it. 90% of all the oil from known resources in the U.S. is still here because we couldn't pump it out before now. The oil industry is running on borrowed time and they know it. The old wells had only 10% of the oil pumped out of them because we didn't have fracking until recently and couldn't get it out of the ground.

  5449. I dream you are correct, but I know you are wrong.
    1
  5450. Why not call a spade, a spade? The unions are now detrimental to the workers, we have come a far ways.
    1
  5451.  @Markcain268  OK, I get it.
    1
  5452. Demurrage.
    1
  5453. Claims, no one weighed them. Without information they are UFO's.
    1
  5454. Your joke is of course what other people fear. But we already know we have to move the world kicking and screaming into a new paradigm. The have-nots will have to get their share to remain happy. We have a responsibility.

  5455. Tesla might be, everyone else will later.
    1
  5456. Or up.

  5457. The only chance to control the fire, assuming battery fire, is to flood the fire area, most likely it will burn to the waterline.

  5458. A pretty tough and experienced baby.

  5459. What is really helping to drive down the demand for oil is the switch to electric scooters and cars, by at least 2 million barrels a day.
    1
  5460. Understanding an unprecedented situation is hard. They hired consultants to do the job, its not Tesla people doing this.
    1
  5461. China was cheaper, now it is cheaper to do it here.
    1
  5462.  @alphawolfgang173  Russians are not Communists, they call themselves such, but they are kleptocrats.
    1
  5463. You really ought to drive a Tesla Cyber Truck.
    1
  5464. These videos need dates that you can find. Like 3/10/2022.
    1
  5465.  @charlescourtney4412  Well when the government is destroyed, if it ever is, I will agree, but not until.
    1
  5466. I am rich enough to say and do what I want because I live in America under British common law, like all our citizens.

  5469. Most don't believe you.
    1
  5470. Regardless, If the Russians run like scared rabbits, which they should and will do, what good does defense lines do?
    1
  5471. Tesla does have a wait list. Ford did not want to wait. Simple.
    1
  5472.  @helenebarrow3659  Good luck on that, I've been working on that for some time.
    1
  5473. Sell first, buy later.

  5474. You don't even need more holes.
    1
  5475. Well I find water bottle engineering exciting, but I am almost 80 years old.

  5480.  @glenmontpiankhi  Buy a Tesla, you'll be glad you did..
    1
  5481.  @videosuperhero100  Yes, you are correct, there are no issues. (Tesla model Y LR).

  5482.  @reiverdaemon  But they eventually add up to millions.

  5483. Shhish! don't say anything!:goodvibes:
    1
  5484.  @aaronlowe3156  Not quite, I was down at Lackland when they set off the TNT part of the warhead accidentally, I was half a mile away and it almost knocked me out of my bunk. Prettiest mushroom cloud you would ever want to see.
    1
  5485.  @LunasEmpireSL  Money, money, money, not better, cheaper until Space-X.
    1
  5486.  @wasser5686  Dictators always steal all the money, therefore no money for the military.

  5487.  @stevenschaefer7944  You don't know what we have, but the Russians do. Don't worry.
    1
  5488. Lets see now, that's family, town, country, world.

  5489. There are cheaper ways that will come in the future with A.I..
    1
  5490. Well that was fun but twice as long as I wanted to listen. Why does everything have to be black and white? This is an oblivious insouciance scam.
    1
  5491. The mountain is unforgiving. That says it all.
    1
  5492. They must be paying people to vote for them, oh, yeah, that's what they have been doing for years.
    1
  5493. OK, you are as funny as I am.
    1
  5494.  @AntiFurry_Republic2024  Sooner, or later?
    1
  5495.  @christopherg2347  So? most people are lagging behind 20 years. Russia as a whole is behind other countries though.
    1
  5496.  @heyaisdabomb  People don't want to hear this, so keep it a secret until I buy my Tesla.
    1
  5497.  @golfmaniac  But they already do that with ICE cars. My 2008 Nissan Altima Hybrid has computers that stop working when you work on the car and the dealer can't fix it, I have to do it myself. Fortunately, I have the time and the money to fix it.
    1
  5498. Get on it!
    1
  5499. They will still run out of water though.
    1
  5500.  @hillie47  It is illegal to shot someone with a gun, therefore no one will do it.
    1
  5501.  @frankbarajas  Except they will get tired of trying to do the impossible and go away.
    1
  5502.  @andreasferenczi7613  That's not the way it works, you have to stay number one to keep others from stealing all your stuff, simple.

  5505. Mine had a crank.
    1
  5506. You are on the right track, study economics.
    1
  5507. You got that partly right, the CCP is stealing all the money, not giving it to the people.
    1
  5508.  @julianmorrisco  How about transmitter tubes?
    1
  5509.  @Allan_aka_RocKITEman  I started my own business back in 1953 when I was ten repairing 5 tube radios, I could make $1.50 on each radio! I still repair them. WA7VQR.
    1
  5510.  @tuppenceworth5485  Leftovers.
    1
  5511. Yep.
    1
  5512. That was a very good talk, more of the same!
    1
  5513. You wouldn't say no issues if you ever worked on an F-106 fighter or an F-105 for that matter.
    1
  5514.  @The_Judge300  Then the real soldiers are the experts, not the generals.
    1
  5515. You still have the steering wheel on the wrong side.:goodvibes:

  5516. Anybody that knows anything , knows the media is 85% wrong by their own admission. It just gets worse.
    1
  5517. Don't bet against Elon.
    1
  5518.  @a-stardesigns1453  No one thought they would be as good us the U.S., just very effective. Check out what the Poles did in WWII.
    1
  5519. California does not have brownouts, they have to much solar just like Texas does.
    1
  5520.  @19951998kc  Wrong, the problem is political, not engineering. The people in the east don't want to pay the people in the west for the power. Coal has a problem as well, it is transported from Mongolia, talk about a waste of resources. China is extremely inefficient.
    1
  5521. I will bet you are 100% wrong. Liars figure, but figures don't lie. 20 years from now it will be illegal to drive your car yourself.
    1
  5522. Put this on the table; Trump would never settle for a loss, that's why he is so strong politically. Putin is in for a rude shock, if he has not already had one.
    1
  5523. Toyota and Japan will be out of business before that happens.
    1
  5524. Not actually correct, laws were passed a while back. All companies will move to this model or go out of business.
    1
  5525. Since there never were to start with, I say you are correct.
    1
  5526. Specs?
    1
  5527.  @FutureAzA  That doesn't seem to be the point, stock vs. cash money.
    1
  5528.  @TheInsaiyan  Yes, The Chevy Corvair was forced to be economical and killed a few people unnecessarily. I guess they were dimwits?
    1
  5529. You have got the political situation nailed.
    1
  5530. Engineering is the opposite of luck. There is no luck, there is only do or don't do.
    1
  5531. Bureaucracies cover their ass and take no responsibility.
    1
  5532. You are a seer. Please start your own channel.
    1
  5533. This is more than unemployment pay and not new or invented by Elon.
    1
  5534. No, I'm still waiting. (Two years maybe?).
    1
  5535.  @dzerres  Since they already know this is FUD, why bother? Just keep on keeping on.
    1
  5536.  @mrdr9534  Yes, in time you will be wrong.
    1
  5537. You have more water than you need, I don't have enough in Arizona. Stay dry.
    1
  5538. I am a Tesla fan, at 79 not a boy, and I don't think all the competition will go bankrupt.
    1
  5539. We all know about Texas, maybe there is a glimmer of reform in here. The reason there are bad lawyers and judges is the perception that it isn't worth it from the more enlightened, leaving the field to the less endowed. I notice you, Steve, who writes good books seems to prefer other fields of endeavor. I have known some bad judges and some very good lawyers.
    1
  5540. No, pretending to be something your not is fun for some.
    1
  5541. Several days, except for the lady that died.
    1
  5542. By appearances, Tesla can build a car cheaper than other car companies in any place at all.
    1
  5543.  @andyfreeze4072  Well, yes but it is just human nature. People don't like change.
    1
  5544.  @JIMMY-nz1ld  They don't know how, building expensive cars is a fallback position.
    1
  5545. Convince my wife of that!
    1
  5546. Safety is number one. Count the number of lives they already saved.
    1
  5547. It already did in some places.
    1
  5548. This has been done before by other people, why wouldn't he "get away with it"? Perhaps he has a better appreciation for this country than you do?
    1
  5549.  @wgowshipping  Think about the stuff going into Ukraine.
    1
  5550. Use of nuclear weapons is instant death, why make it more clear? You can't.
    1
  5551. Well one thing we know, Democracy's don't generally start wars, mostly its the Kleptocracies when they run out of people to rob. Like now Putin needs more people to rob so he can keep stealing money. The Chinese are in the same position as well. Rob, rape , pillage and steal that's the game.
    1
  5552. Ver. 12 just pulling over to the curb will be an improvement.
    1
  5553. We could ask the Germans, but they probably aren't interested.
    1
  5554.  @glengarbera7367  False flag, hiding the truth.
    1
  5555. @Indigo Rodent There are a lot of schools in Ukraine, less so in Russia.
    1
  5556. You should worry about nay-sayers they stopped the building of a 500 mw generator on the Havasupai reservation by saying we would flood the Grand Canyon when they knew it was a lie.
    1
  5557.  @needsmoreboosters4264  But Toyoda is losing money and will go out of business.
    1
  5558.  @christopherg2347  Yes and the car does or will do the same.
    1
  5559.  @christopherg2347  That is not correct, it is because of the decision matrix.
    1
  5560. It looks like they got lucky and the methanol barge didn't get crushed, it looks like it is the last one in the pile, the other two look like grain barges. I was once a fireman in the USAF.
    1
  5561.  @GoCoyote  Think bigger.
    1
  5562.  @frankcoffey  All kinds of things, bullets for example, pewter, radiation protection.
    1
  5563. Check out L.A.
    1
  5564. Nothing has happened yet, its all words. Keeps the peoples interest and redirects from things you should not be looking at.
    1
  5565.  @doughamblett5204  The Wrights did also, so what?
    1
  5566. There is a way to see remotely how many they have but it is classified.
    1
  5567. Because it didn't?
    1
  5568. It looks like Valley Forge during the revolution.
    1
  5569. That's exactly the same as my 2000 Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup truck, Gas mileage goes down to 7 mpg.
    1
  5570.  @japark85  All the workers fired will get jobs, there are more than enough jobs that are waiting for someone to fill them.
    1
  5571. Probably what made the Romans lose their edge and go downhill. Plumbum.
    1
  5572. What FSD prepayments? I put down $100 on a truck with FSD.

  5573. You are a spring chicken.

  5577.  @awesomeferret  But still its my choice to die and go to hell or someplace. I pray for people.
    1
  5578. Bah, we could replace the whole shebang in 10 years if we wanted to. Its been done before. (You didn't know that we switched from horses to cars in 10 years, did you).
    1
  5579. Don't be a day late and a dollar short in your thinking, that's already been said several times, still true though.
    1
  5580. I guess that you are a little behind the eight ball.
    1
  5581. Remember the RADAR operator in Hawaii on Dec. 7, 1941 in the hour before the Japanese attack? Unless he had to much Vodka, he saw them, just didn't believe it.
    1
  5582. Putin never had a strategy, so it couldn't have failed. Three days, that's it.
    1
  5583. A poor design, my Jeep struts came out a lot easier than that.
    1
  5584.  @volvodoc01  You need to learn radio theory.
    1
  5585.  @standbytogo123  You don't need to wonder, just look at the picture.
    1
  5586. Elon has been proven wrong about the criminals not admitting they are guilty, they all did admit it in court because there is overwhelming evidence against them. But of course he is right about just about everything else.
    1
  5587. Why don't you do it? You have about the same chance of success.
    1
  5588.  @paradiselost9946  Edison had the solution but ran out of time and money, Nickel-silver. Now we move forward, just buy a Tesla.
    1
  5589. If he wants to wait.
    1
  5590. This is all BS. The only way to defend yourself has always been to stay ahead of your enemy. Get to work.
    1
  5591. Did you ever hear of the Elio? They went around to the separate states and got them to change the laws.
    1
  5592. Look I am an applied computing graduate and Radio Engineer, even I can redesign a 12 Volt system to 48 Volts. Although I did submit my computer programming to an outside consultant, it was just to assuage the higher ups, not because of any problem imagined or otherwise in my unique work.(Reentrant)(Ground-breaking even). It is still running after 40 years.
    1
  5593.  @sadayukinaga9363  Airspeed is what you need to know, ground speed is what you see.
    1
  5594.  @grantbuttenshaw  Where would you get such an idea? Firing is one thing, but they have no need to rehire them at less wages or salary. Insubordination is not to be tolerated if you want to remain in charge.
    1
  5595.  @davis.fourohfour  Who told you that? You are spreading rumors.
    1
  5596.  @grantbuttenshaw  That seems likely, but not if she is getting hired back.
    1
  5597.  @ZYGTropicals  Collapse is collapse.
    1
  5598. The reason for it all is to get as much money in my pocket (and out of yours) as possible. They are a kleptocracy. Looked at in this way, it makes perfect sense. Elon is using them for his own ends.
    1
  5599. In the end, only the Feds have a say in who transmits, not the states and they can only regulate, not stop..
    1
  5600. It looks like the higher level CCP members figured out a way to take all the money out of China and put it in their Swiss bank accounts, just like Putin's gang.
    1
  5601. Because they won't pay bribes, that's the same reason they aren't in India.
    1
  5602.  @APatchworkCanvas  Assuming you can of course.
    1
  5603. Training not just for cars for planes, boats, golf, etc.
    1
  5604. It was just easier.
    1
  5605.  @captiancholera8459  Actually, Russian troops aren’t driving to Kyiv.
    1
  5606. Yes, it is a moot point.

  5607. To bad you didn't know about atmospheric skip, you could have listened to radio from all over at night. The clear channel stations WBAL, WNEW, WWVA, WLS, etc..
    1
  5608.  @chirpywiggins5796  The use of nuclear weapons would end Russia as a country, so they will not do it.
    1
  5609.  @chrisreise4011  Obviously, you do not understand the strategy. Think of Vietnam.
    1
  5610. And you could use it to hit that occasional intruder over the head!

  5611.  @brunoheggli2888  What is your definition of "important"? I won't be answering you back.
    1
  5612.  @lchpdmq  Of coarse he was, no one in his right mind would do this otherwise.
    1
  5613. I spent 4 years in the USAF and they only paid me $85.00 a month and I paid the full tuition for my 4 year college degree. I also paid for my 2 ear surgeries and my 2 back surgeries even though they were service connected. Of course I had to hide my disabilities from my employer or they never would have hired me.I still have back pain and still can't hear. But I did use the GI bill to finance my $12,000 house.
    1
  5614. Really you can sit down and figure it out yourself, hardly a secret.
    1
  5615. I suppose you can afford the charging experience at least once in your life.
    1
  5616. If I click on subscribe, it asks for money. I had subscribed before.
    1
  5617. So you aren't saying that people are 100% safe?, or 50% safe?, or 25% safe? I didn't think so. People cause accidents not cars or the road. I guess that Tesla's are 10 times safer then other cars right now and will be more so in the future.
    1
  5618. How do you overcome the graft and corruption in the 3rd world countries?
    1
  5619. Years ago we knew this would happen, it's happened before. There is no water left north of Phoenix. Water is gold in the West.
    1
  5620.  @jakobrinsdorf7791  We are talking air superiority here. Then use A-10's. Use stand-off missiles.
    1
  5621.  @a0flj0  That looks like a recipe for Russian disaster.
    1
  5622. Those injectors were used before 1966, I was injected with them myself.
    1
  5623. To late for all but Tesla.
    1
  5624. I'm thinking about the pros that steal copper wire... I think there is going to be a lot more battery fires and electrocutions.
    1
  5625. A bird in the hand, is worth two in the bush. Cybertruck comes before Model 2.
    1
  5626. Guess who dropped that bomb? Likely the good old USA.
    1
  5627. There are no bumps in mine.
    1
  5628. So will everyone else. At least I have the solar.
    1
  5629. There is a rule that you should know; When the people have to pay over 50% in tax, they rebel and change the system. Time for change.
    1
  5630. you don't need new generation right now, but we will anyway in the future for other uses.
    1
  5631. And your point is?
    1
  5632. So you expect the Russo-Ukraine war to go on for 40 years? Have you checked out for yourself what the solar irradiance is in Germany?
    1
  5633. Just over 10 million people and climbing. It's now 12 million...
    1
  5634. Rules can be changed. Ukraine going down the tubes will trigger a major war.
    1
  5635.  @andyw2132  The other manufacturers are screwed then.
    1
  5636.  @jamesvandamme7786  That's not lots of profit, that's because the other manufacturers are leaning on Tesla to continue to make any profit.
    1
  5637.  @wolfgangpreier9160  Good.

  5638.  @joealt5345  You can't buy them for that price.

  5639.  @kimweaver1252  Russia is not a very good salesman.

  5640.  @deirdre108  Himmm, the USAF combined 86 into three shots.
    1
  5641.  @MetaView7  That's because the economy crashed, many will get pink slips.
    1
  5642.  @tuppenceworth5485  Actually, this is under stating the true disaster which is China's economy. See if you can pass off 80 tons of copper as gold.
    1
  5643. How can a person like Musk, who has no income, pay any money to anyone at all? He has to sell stock to get money. (Which will be taxed).
    1
  5644. Well, well, well you are exactly correct and that is what they did, the U.S. military has been in control for months.
    1
  5645.  @yo2trader539  Toyota never had any intention of doing these things, it is just smoke.

  5646. They are not made in the USA.
    1
  5647. Try 100 years ago.
    1
  5648. This whole electric train thing is silly, it has been solved over 100 years ago, you put the power supply on the side of the track and connect it with wires, I can't believe people don't know how this works. How about a Lionel model train? Overhead using a gantry? Trolly? come on!
    1
  5649. It was apparent from the beginning that they always were trying to do exactly what you say.
    1
  5650.  @Simon-ho6ly  Well somebody screwed up.
    1
  5651. These companies were always about using other peoples money up, not being successful.

  5652.  @lilyjane1011  Sorry to say, people live in their own world, you may be more discerning than most.
    1
  5653.  @snipelite94  Nah, he is just like me, far to smart for that.
    1
  5654. Well, that's one thing I learned from driving my Tesla with FSD; speed kills, (or maybe I learned that when I was 17)?
    1
  5655. Seems a little strange that they would waste their missiles that way, I guess they don't have anything else to do.
    1
  5656. That will happen after we are all dead.
    1
  5657.  @duran9664  Not for very much longer.

  5658. AARP might object to people having a no training needed philosophy. They give training to older people. My wife and I are taking the course. I learned how to drive by racing my father on the back roads in N.J..

  5663. I have been flying drones for 70 years since I was 9 years old and built my first one from a kit that cost %10.95 in New Brunswick, N.J. where I was born (a KenHi Buzzard).I see no need for sub-jurisdictions to regulate the national airspace, we have enough regulation as it is. I have never had a problem except for over zealous police trying to exert authority where they had none. I have flown in other countries also. Currently many municipalities have illegal ordinances restricting operation.

  5687. When I was in the Air Force, I was stationed at Lowery in Colorado and I flew model airplanes (still do) One of the members of our informal club was a Denver officer. An AF captain friend of mine told me never to drive with him under any circumstances. Being young and foolish, one day I ignored his advice and found out why. The officer drove a VW and had a "church key" tied on a string to his dash. Driving through town he would not stop at red lights and would open a beer from a six pack next to him, drink the beer and throw the can out the window!

  5700. Although I agree with you about the dangers, the contamination has largely been done already, we now use unleaded fuel, which does not take the lead out of the soil that is already there. Lead was used in paint for a long time, and was taken out of paint because it contaminated the environment. We still need to clean up from the past and stop using ICE cars to prevent more deaths.

  5763. When I was in Tokyo, the people on the street were open and friendly and more than willing to talk to me in English. I would ask a question like what do you think about the US using the Atomic bomb on Japan, and they would say, "It was war".
    1
  5764. Wait until there are more electric trucks on the road.
    1
  5765. The point here is you are a fool if you copy others designs. If you can't figure out why, then you are doomed to repeat Soviet mistakes remaining 50 years behind anyone you copy. I feel the West is in a very comfortable position, running as fast as we can to stay ahead. Don't get complacent.

  5772. Events have eclipsed your old information, Tesla has saved the day. California has at least 2% of cars on the road electric, not hybrid. Arizona and Colorado have at least 1% electric. Others will be left in the dust of history. At this rate, 50% will be electric in 10 years or less. All we need is reliable infrastructure to charge cars and trucks which is being built. Don't listen to those that say it can't be done, just look at history.

Lesson; don't work on stuff at 2:30 in the morning. I don't wear a wrist strap. I have seen why they say you can affect the strength of the case, incorrect assembly by someone that doesn't know how or why all those screws are put in in the first place. Mostly, people just drop them and break them without taking them apart anyway. (Which I am sure you know).

You might like to read some of Dr. Warren Farrel's books to understand what is going on. Title nine has ruined college for men and here is the reason. Young men are not motivated except by one thing. (unless you catch their interest before puberty). This has been known at least as far back as the Ancient Greeks according to their writing. How are you going to get men interested in college (if you assume that is a good idea?) You trick them into it! That's what college sports is for. Also, Fraternities and other exclusive clubs. Take that away and you change our society. The women will do all the work and the men will stay home and take care of the kids. It's just better that way since they will be able to make more money. This is a self sustaining cycle, women will (and are) seeing that they have to get educated to have a family and succeed. Dystopian, perhaps but that is how I see it. Good or bad? I am not very good at explaining so others will have to become aware of this and remark on it. I got my degree after I retired in 2001. I was to busy working to do both.

  6080. When I started studying these systems back in the 1980's these problems in theory were known in regard to the GPS itself, just not applied to the eventual use of the system. At least known to a radio engineer.

  6090. Al you have to do is to go back to 1956, G.M. said what is good for General Motors (General Bull Moose) is good for the country. Now you know why G.M. is going to fail along with the other arrogant auto makers. Hubris will get you every time.

  6121. It has no military significance, just a terror weapon.

  6122. The main problem with EV's is they are priced to high, except for Tesla which are selling as fast as they can make them. Who are you trying to kid? Tesla has over half the market.

  6123. Russia is a kleptocracy, can't you get that through your head? Tucker was used by Putin for propaganda, nothing more. Putin needs more places to rob.

  6124. Good advice, that's what all my rich friends did when I was growing up. Keep a low profile, of course I don't have anything to steal except old junk no one wants, being 80 years old. I do have a small pile of balsa wood in case anyone has a fetish for old wood and a few resistors and capacitors.😁

  6129. You are pretty much wasting your time and mine by blowing in the wind.(If you don't mind my metaphor) These ideas have been hashed and rehashed for years. Lets just get on with it and fix the problems. Battery's are a good start, and then Fusion.

  6143. The problem, if it is a problem, with police officers is that they are underpaid. The big city gets to pay more, so the little jurisdiction gets the "lower quality" officers, generally speaking. The officers that I went to college with seemed to be good people.

  6144.  @phillipmcnair5789  Not much thinking is going on here, almost all energy comes from the sun, except Nuclear. Coal and gas are stored energy from the Sun as well as wind and solar electric coming from the sun.

  6169. If the state has the power to kill or lock up, and it does, then it has the responsibility to take care of the people that it sanctions. There is no other way.
    1
  6170.  @leejohnson6328  One of the ways to take care of the people that commit crimes is death, as I stated; the state still has the responsibility. The people have the responsibility to make sure the state does not mess up. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.

  6174. It should be obvious that others understand the potential value in advertising. The best advertising is free advertising, (because people tend to believe it). There is no such thing as good or bad advertising, there is only advertising. Controversy creates or holds interest. No advertising is death. To bad P.T. Barnum isn't around to educate people. Or even Orson Welles.

    1
  6190.  @Alt-ot5sr  Let's see; Lithium is 33 most abundant element in the earth's crust. Iron is abundant enough, Copper is available, but could be a constraint if not recycled. We don't need Lead. I would predict the price of an electric car would come down to $25,000 in short order.
    1
  6191. Depends on the structural damage, I think the methanol barge may have gotten lucky because of the cushion from the grain barge. methanol is 6.6 lbs per gallon compared to waters 8.3, should give an advantage getting it cleaned up.

  6192. A person as astute as yourself should not fall for all this propaganda about Ukrainian support, Ukraine will continue to be supported. Slowly, slowly the frog is boiled in the pot.

  6211. An easily solved non-problem.
    1
  6212. That's not exactly true, like most things people say. Teslas are in a different class of cars than most, electric cars have been in general more likely to be totaled because insurance companies have been worried about damage to the battery and electrics that is hidden. This will and is changing as more experience is gained.

  6229. Yes, many people have been thought to be insane by the hoy-polloi. Ch. Babbage, Sec. Stewart, R. Fulton, N. Tesla, etc. There is a very long list, even Elon Musk. Just type "people that were ridiculed for their ideas" into your browser.

  6230. The same economics apply to any large scale factory, one is not better than another.
    1
  6231. I don't see the big three making much of a profit from electric cars either.
    1
  6232. I think the same thing as always will happen, the dealers will take all the money, that's what happened last time and nothing has changed except they figured out a way to take even more of the peoples money through sales of used cars. Tesla being the one exception, could kill them since Tesla controls the Tesla used car market as well as selling new cars direct to customers. There will be no benefit to the public unless they buy from Tesla.

  6249. Very good tests, except for one thing, you forgot to put the engines in the freezer, I guarantee none of them will work. I once started my 1941 Chevrolet pickup at 40 below zero by rolling it down a small hill, the 6 volt battery would not even turn it over. (6 cylinder, low compression).

  6293. The B-36 the same as all the aircraft would have worked and the Soviets knew it. There was never a risk. Later when SAMs were farther developed there was more of a guess how many would get through. But it would have been enough. So we were lucky no one mis-calculated.

  6296.  @MartinMartinX  Not only have you never been to Russia, you don't know anything about Russia either. All the information shows Russia is an empty shell.

  6323. The oil and ICE car companies also have their paid supporters and they have enough money to "short" Tesla stock in order to make it go down, but they will run out of money or get tired of beating against a brick wall or get caught. Just wait. Follow the money.

  6326.  @the_sceptic  I can attest that this is not true on a Tesla. Almost all cars come with no spare, because they are not used very much and it costs more to keep a spare than it is worth. Ton-miles.

  6336. You can read all sorts of things, try to separate fact from fiction. If a chemical is water soluble it could be a problem, so they are not used, the problem is the plastics last to long and have to be modified to break down in a reasonable amount of time, right now there is so much long-lasting plastic in the ocean, it is killing us and other animals as well.

  6337. Not a very good list of ideas, selectively applied. We will need some better thinking than this to do the job. Rationally, bombarding Mars with asteroids would build up its mass in order to hold in an atmosphere and could increase its rotation. Check out the distance and energy to do this. Approximately one Earth mass is needed to hold H2 molecules on the planet else all the liquid water will disappear. We will need to colonize the planets or moons farther out than Earth first because the Sun will change over time.

  6342. E-fuels are only a band-aid, to fool people and will not reduce the CO2 in the atmosphere. You don't even sound convinced yourself. Anyone that wants to look at the process can see it won't work to solve the problem, just make it worse, because of the energy required to do it.The use of Nuclear fuel would help if it is used efficiently and not wasted on such inefficient processes. You are forgetting everything you learned about electric cars (temporarily) to put forth such bad ideas. It is the overall efficiency of the entire process that drives the use of electric cars, not just protecting the earth, which is a side benefit.

  6343. You are mistaken, Except for Tesla whom has a different mission, no car companies are going to build a charging infrastructure and never intended to, that is just a lie they tell. Giving the people freebees is a way for the elected representatives to get re-elected, you have to get the money from somewhere and that is YOUR pocket. Sorry about the government staying out of any business, its to late they are in.

  6345.  @bojournersouthern2641  True, as soon as I found out my son was put on Ritalin by my ex, I took him off it. This was many years ago and he does well now, if a little late compared to me, who also had problems.

  6359.  @SlipperyPenguin-m9z  You are a fool if you think China and Russia are on your side. They are in the 1800's and want to take what you have from you by force. They are kleptocracy's.
    1
  6360. All wars are caused by greed, the Russians miscalculated the West's desire to keep the world in the 21st century and not go back to the 19th century. They didn't get the message yet.

  6383. There is no reason why they could not do that, in fact my car does it all the time. If you know anything about electricity, you know that there is a zero point where nothing flows through the battery. Confused? Then use a capacitor.

  6387. That's not entirely true, my father worked at the BOP assembly plant in Linden, N.J. in 1957, but my brother my mother and I had to ask him to quit, they asked too much of their supervisors (and he was a good one, being a genius).

  6393. Why would anyone elect someone like that?

  6394. Must have forgotten the saying, "If you want it done right, do it yourself".
    1
  6395. Its always been true that electric is better than ICE, the gearbox is a compromise to get the most performance out of an inherently weaker system, there is no secret or argument here. That's why we have Diesel-electric locomotives. and electric drive ships.

  6424. Jeese, Richard you should have told me that before I spent 139,427 pounds sterling on two Teslas, Y and Cyber truck. Anyway, the die is cast, we will go all electric (which was interrupted 130 years ago) because it will be the cheapest by far, everything else is falling by the wayside. The handwriting is on the wall. Solar and batteries will be cleaner and cheaper than anything else.

Lets see, Radio repair at 10 years old, sold magazines at 12, worked haying for 14 hours a day at 14, raised eggs on a farm at 15, rebuilt Piper Cubs at 16, worked in a lumber yard until it got burned down, worked in a bakery, worked for a clothing manufacturer, worked on a dairy farm until 18 then went to work in an underground mine in Franklyn, N.J. went into the USAF just before my 19th birthday for 4 years, 1963-1967. Got a job as a radio-TV repairman until the company went bankrupt. Went to work for APS in Phoenix for 8 years as a radio engineer, then as an operations supervisor for 8 years. Went to work for the state of Arizona as the manager of the Ariz Power Authority for 18 years, retired in 2001. Don't cry for me, I had fun.😁

  6492. There is , on purpose several ways to interpret meaning.

  6496. No paper money was involved.😁

  6497. With that thinking you will never write great software either, it takes someone to tear it down (or make it fail) to get the bugs out. Once I talked to a man who knew what he was talking about. He said, "we graduate 250 PhD's in software engineering every year. They go to the three biggest company's. The rest have to take the math graduates and use them for software engineers". You can figure the result out.

  6504. No, they just wore out their guns.

  6505. Most car companies are just lying, there is no chip shortage, just no sales, everybody knows this already. The same is true in China. There are 100's of thousands of cars not sold. You are likely to see the same person walking by that field all day long, paid to tell people what you heard.
    1
  6506. So you think the Chinese made any money? You think Solar power companies were on the up and up?

  6507. So this means with the cost of electricity and autos going down, even more people will be driving.

  6508. iF Metall forgot basic advertising principles, conflict leads to interest, the best publicity is free publicity. The secret is people believe publicity that is not paid for much more than paid for publicity, (for those that don't know about publicity). Elon Musk being one who does know. They literally did just the opposite of what they wanted, similar to the Russians.

  6509. You know where the uranium is by using a Geiger counter so it is easy to tell where it is or is going. A worse problem is the mineral nodules they are talking about mining from the seabed.with all its attached radiation.

  6510.  @loujr9869  You will live (maybe) to regret your thinking, fortunately you have no money, so have no skin in the game, like I do. You mention the Fuhrer, do you know the story of Volkswagen and the scheme to defraud the German people of their hard-earned money to raise funds for WWII?

  6583. Yes, especially when they go out of business.

  6584. I ran the Arizona-New Mexico grid for 4 years as an Operations supervisor for APS. This Idea is old, it has too many disadvantages. Reliability is a major problem, turf wars is another. When they tried to tie the Texas Interconnection to the Western Interconnection, it did not work, its the tail wagging the dog. Possibility with modern DC ties you could make it work. That's what Texas does right now. The losses would be high, at a guess 30% that's a lot of heat generated for no profit. I thought a lot about these things when I was working, but now pretty much leave it to others. As long as companies do such a bad job, reference Calif and Texas, it won't be possible. APS wasn't much better, but at least they are rational and have good companies to work with, SRP and Arizona Power Authority among others.

  6624. Since we have established that we only know of one proven way to learn how to drive, (us) and no one but Tesla has taken this path, how can they possibly succeed? I worked this out by myself, and I'm pretty sure I'm not unique.

However he could be correct about the ultimate result, which could have been and was foreseen when we started to move business offshore and that is the pendulum has now swing back the other way.

  6631.  @908Dannyboy  Well you know more than most do.
    1
  6632. If insurance rates are biased on rational criteria, they will reflect the cost of repair after an accident and the cost of damage to others. Neither of which would be higher than a Ford Lightning or Chevy. since the cost to buy will be lower.

  6633. There will be a lot less because everyone will be dead.

  6634. The real reason for not using 50 - 100 megaton bombs is more than 90% of the power goes straight up into space, where the air pressure is the lowest. In other words, it is wasted.

Later my father said to me, how come you didn't hit me? (because I was so close to him when he spun out). He went on to win many club races and I went from the mines into the USAF. I drive a Tesla model Y LR.

  6701. That's because they are, Tesla did not say they invented all the ideas to make a car, just a better implementation. They did not invent the giga-casting, just used an idea that was sitting there waiting for someone bold enough to change the way things are done. What they invented along with others willing to help, was a machine that could actually work and then improved it. There are many good ideas never used because no one wants to take a chance on it. That's why Elon is a genius, he sees things that others don't see.

  6918. The problem is to decide which form of truth to believe in a microsecond. Anyway cameras can easily be extended to see infrared, it is not a separate device. For example, I use an infrared camera. An airplane can use three computers and vote between them, that costs time and money and is not reliable because of the redundant parts. (I know, I know, that is the reason they used them in the first place.)

  6953.  @heaven-is-real  Thank God Tesla does not make smart cars, they are way to small and dangerous. I have two Teslas, a model Y for my wife and a Cybertruck for me. They are the safest cars ever made and the most intelligent. I should know, my father and my mother were both geniuses. I am waiting to get some A.S.S., FSD also. Try to get in a plane and fly it without any instruction.

  6954.  @tommydong8070  Tesla expects you to read the manual. They treat their customers like they have some intelligence. Musk's influence maybe?

  6964. It has been known since 1980 that Ukraine had these drones. They took some out of a museum. Likely put updated electronics on them and fired them off to hit ammo dumps, but missed one and hit a truck next to a plane, it didn't do the plane any good either.

  6989. Where do you think all the money the CCP steals from the people is going? Anyplace but China.
    1
  6990. It will take at least a year to start production. Mexico has the idea of using more people to do work instead of machinery, giving more people work, so they need a bigger factory. This is not necessarily less efficient.
    1
  6991.  @alanmay7929  All true, we just have to stop burning it in transportation and industrial processes since doing so kills a million people a year in the world.
    1
  6992.  @alanmay7929  You have no idea of what you are talking about. Natural gas is used to launch Starlink and a small amount of oil is used to manufacture the equipment. When you get to fly on a Starship, it will only take 1 hour to go to any spot on the globe, saving time and fuel. When Fusion comes on line, we will be able to grow all food locally and won't even need to ship food.
    1
  6993.  @Jonathan_Doe_  Whatever. That is certainly true.
    1
  6994.  @markilleen4027  Good luck with that, we are not even close to having all the power we need yet Atomic energy was never properly developed (because of the "green" people and solar power can right now power California during the day, soon with batteries at night also. Batteries are the most cost effective from an engineering standpoint right now. Bio-fuels don't do any good, they are just blowing smoke.
    1
  6995. Unfortunately, Trains have plenty of electronics which fail regularly because of lack of maintenance.
    1
  6996.  @golfmaniac  Just like the other companies, you have to limit what you can do right now, in the past the same was true for ICE cars until improvements were made. Let the people that don't have these problems pave the way for those that are more constrained in money or climate. Just because one persons position in the world is less than mine does not mean that I can't buy a moderately priced, for my budget, vehicle and later when the price comes down, others can take advantage of my ability to pave the way.

  7021. I think you actually gave Tesla a pass on this one. I remember my father (six foot 4 inches and 240 lbs.) coming in third in a hill-climb in Pennsylvania driving a BMW 750 against two SAAB's, each car was 0.01 sec apart, being the SAAB's had front wheel drive, not to shabby. All the other cars were twice as slow because it was raining. There are to many variables to say what is going to happen with certainty.

  7029. Yes, it can be repaired or totaled, depends on the damage.

  7030. The Chinese themselves predicted collapse many times before and they were correct. It is a natural outcome of their society. They say the government has lost its mandate from heaven, and they are correct, if a government stays in power long enough, it becomes so corrupt it disintegrates and has to be replaced.

  7061. It might be just a simple "Not invented here" syndrome.
    1
  7062. You totally missed how much power you could collect, maybe to prove your point. I collect slightly more than you did with my solar collector in Peoria, AZ. But if you steered it with the sun, you would collect much more. The idea of solar collectors in space is very old, you don't need any fancy converters that might break, just simple mirrors directing the suns rays to other mirrors and down to a receiver on earth to run conventional power plants. The problems are station keeping and deterioration from solar flux. Station keeping is solved by using solar sails to "tack" against the constant solar pressure using super computers. The problem of weathering is taken care of by maintenance. I call this MOSS for Massive Orbital Solar Satellites. No special orbit necessary.

  7084. You are talking about motors when you are talking about inverters, where is the problem? I just had my front motor and axle replaced on my two motor cyber truck because it had a (hormonic imbalance?) noise from the front end, it is now quiet as a mouse. There were only some minor problems from the factory, the most annoying problem was the installation of the hub caps was done at the dealers by someone that did not know how to do it and broke the retainers so one hub cap flew off. I like the new little hub caps Tesla sent me however. I am happy as a clam with both my Tesla's. I will wrap my Cyber truck.

  7104.  @gustavgyll3291  But GM and Ford did the same thing! Several times! Short memory?

  7105.  @lancebybee7962  The evidence is now in (you may not have seen it) Elon was 100% correct and charging will get better, faster. This is exactly what I expected but I didn't know how bad it really was, now we know.
    1
  7106.  @gustavgyll3291  This is stupid, but it is to late for it to matter because Elon started the ball rolling and others will have to do the same, ever so reluctantly.

  7123. Its the same thing as the Arizona State Legislature punishing the judges that imposed school payments on the legislature. They were pissed off because of the overstepping (or perceived overstepping) of the courts.

  7124.  olivdeso7262  Fact is Elon Musk is a self identified suffer of Asperger syndrome. So he cannot be anything but honest, therefore not a maniac of any kind.
    1
  7125. That is pretty unlikely. Have you seen how it is built?
    1
  7126. I guess there is a lot of stories about unplugging things, I have several myself. I was running the power grid in Phoenix, AZ on the graveyard shift when a Sigma 7 mainframe computer power supply decided to catch fire and not blow the fuse. it was in the room next to mine and I could see it through the glass partition. I went in and pulled the fuses for that particular rack to stop it from burning and called the people next door that were using the computer for switching the electric system and told them what had just happened to their computer. They were upset and tried to blame me for losing their computer. But the next morning, the supervisor over the equipment that had gone out told them to leave me alone, I knew what I was doing and saved the company $20,000 if the Halon had been discharged. I had worked with him when I was a radio engineer years before. Interesting to me was he had been involved in three incidents when I saved the company time and money and some people considerable difficulty. He was the cousin of one of my bosses.

  7138.  @xxGonzo69xx  Coal does not equal bad. Gasoline and diesel equal bad. Natural gas is used extensively because it pollutes less, so equals better.

  7163. You very effectively made a problem that doesn't exist. It is easy to make replacement parts either in a factory or on site and simply put them into any place that needs repair, in fact this is easier than repairing a conventual building.

  7164.  @purpaidh  Actually stupid you should act on accurate information, they did not.
    1
  7165. Drive your Tesla, or let it drive you.

  7166. Elon really focused on only one thing, and you should take note that you only focus on the highest priority thing until you get it done. The car as a program, that is a computer defined car.

  7167. Its more involved than that, it was a major mistake by the crew.

  7195.  @YouTubeCensorsEverything  You forget the psychological aspect. The Russians already know they will lose, this makes it faster and saves many lives. There are at least 1,000 F-16's available, they would not even have to worry about repairing them. What a glorious end use for a great fighter plane.

  7205. Eventually causing the Japanese to surrender, Yeah, it took them about half an hour. The B-29 was even more valuable in the cold war, it was so good, the Russians insisted on copying it, causing them to fall far behind the U.S. in development of war planes. What ever happened to the B-47 with 2,000 of them made, in service for 15 years until 1965? I thought that replaced the B-36?

  7231. I'd say the Russian people are being counseled in a most brutal way right now. Exactly why do you think war isn't a good idea? I say make it so. The Russian leadership have run out of opportunities to steal the peoples money, since they have 98% of it, so are looking for other places to steal the money from, if it gets so it is clear it isn't going to pay a profit, they will stop.

  7251.  @Name-lu8ur  Tesla wants everyone who can to make EV's as fast as they can. Did they steal it?

  7253.  @peterklausner9727  Yes they are, but others are working on it also. Its the CCP that invests, not the people or the country.

  7254. I applaud Tesla for lowering prices as they said they would, more people will be able to afford them. I have no problem with my Tesla either, since I knew that Tesla was going to lower prices as much as they could and still make a profit. That's what Elon said.

  7274. Ahh come on, we have known cars are killing 2 million people a year in the world for many years (one million from exhaust fumes and one million from accidents) and we have done nothing about it. Why start now? Do we need all those people? Elon Musk thinks we do and his company is the only one working on both problems at the same time.

But Ukraine will be stronger than Germany and Poland to resist the Russians. What a waste of money the Russians caused. They will pay for 60 years.

  7307. Hopefully this is the last comment. Nipples in men do have a point, as far as use is concerned and males can give milk including humans. There are rare cases where this is necessary, most cases are not wanted and are treated to eliminate the "problem".

  7311.  @gustavgyll3291  Those that have great powers get great responsibility. It was ridiculous to take on the task and the successful results will be rewarded. Elon is in uncharted territory, so it seems ridiculous, that's why I am with him and he deserves all he can get. No one has ever created a company, let alone several, that are going to be worth 10 trillion dollars.
    1
  7312.  @singed8853  Since it has already happened in reverse of what you say, just exactly who is getting fleeced here? Have you ever heard the story of the Pied Piper? Rather it is to say Elon already earned his stock options. We can judge the value now, after the fact, you seem to think that it is his future pay, no, he already earned it and the judge can't take it away after the fact. Now we have to figure out what his future pay is worth, would you be willing to give Elon 44 billion cash and have him turn it into 4 trillion? Or are you not willing to take the risk? Elon did take the risk and he came thru. Don't bet against Elon.

  7317. In the world? No, but in the U.S. you have a choice, Model S, 3, X, Y (my choice) or wait for Cyber Truck (not my choice to wait but I can't find a way to skip the line). If you buy anything else you will regret it.

  7318. So you fell for the explanation of the SS system that is fed to you by the people that took all the money out of the system, that's not the way it is, the government can no longer pay the money owed and will screw the people that are expecting to get their hard earned money back. (They borrowed it). It is just like a ponzi scheme, a big joke on the American public.

  7319. In fact, all energy that comes from the sun is, including water, wind, coal and oil power. Even nuclear energy itself is. (Yes, without Fusion, there would be no Fission, all heavy elements are made in a sun, not ours though, since we can't get them yet).

  7331. Look at it this way, you are wrong, but you are right at the same time. We have to replace all CO2 creating power plants including especially transportation. This will take time. People will have to change. Your opinion doesn't matter, only the facts matter. Australia suffers most from this problem because its in the southern hemisphere. There is no choice but change whether you like it or not. It doesn't matter what the cost is, it has to be done. Just do it.

  7404. Historically inaccurate, the British were on their last legs when Hitler ordered the Luftwaffe to change tactics and bomb London, partly due to the English bombing German cities (however accidentally). I used the XFG-1(also known as the RK-61) thyratron tube (valve) in my radio control airplane (drone) in 1952. I still have one.

Of course he was not sure, but got me tested right away and said, "Yep, your right" and admitted me right away, about 15 minutes.

  7507. So where is the surprise that the Chinese are spys?

  7508. So your saying safety is important?

  7509. I'm 80 and I never thought ICE cars were the answer since I was 7 and learned to read, I was a fan of Edison and played with my twin brother on the side of the hill where the "Eternal Light" is when I was 3. Both Edison and his wife drove Baker Electrics. We are finally getting to finish Edison's project. Of course I drive a Tesla model Y LR.

  7518. He is just normal.

  7519. People forget; there is no such thing as bad publicity, there is only publicity, (or being ignored and dying). These people that are saying things about Tesla are giving them publicity and it matters (ask Mary).
    1
  7520.  @truetech4158  Yes, as I remember it, Ford and Edison didn't make a product for the masses, just the very rich that could afford electricity and a car. Snooty of them I would say. And of course the philanthropists never did set up the great charities we have now, they just popped into existence by themselves.
    1
  7521. Thinking like Elon?

  7522. Thanks for the info. He canceled an appearance at The Financial Brand Forum conference to brand himself, thank goodness he is recovering and didn't burn his good side.

  7524. Tesla chargers are like gas stations.
    1
  7525. Well you got that one wrong, its the other pickups that kill people because of their massive frontal area, they are 9% more deadly than they were a few years before. My guess is they will kill people until we pass a law that says they all have to be as safe as a Cybertruck. (State of the art.)

  7560. I remember when I was in 11th grade in 1961 in N.J. one of the questions on the SAT test was who was the first to use radio controlled airplanes in war. I was the only one to get it right and the teachers were suspicious that I cheated on the test since I got one of the highest scores on the test, I still have the little book with the test scores in it.

  7580.  @LuisAldamiz  We will not run out of fossil fuels in the foreseeable future, or ever for that matter, because we are DOING something about the problem, not just sitting on our asses waiting for BP or others. And that is making batteries and solar power. The die is cast.

  7581. It is Nitrogen that is put in car tires, why I don't know since the air is 2/3 Nitrogen anyway. For many years dealerships have been on the bottom in the regard of people in general, even lower than lawyers. (Check Shakespeare).

  7582. Ukrainians are smarter than Russians and so will win the war, Russians have never fought well outside of Russia, they have a peasant mentality. Oil? Oil? What oil? We certainly don't need it, they are just blowing smoke. (Literally).

  7583.  @FutureAzA  On the face of it it is dilutive, you have less control. I would just award him regular shares, he earns every penny and more, sort of like the goose that laid the golden eggs.

  7596.  @bizzop69  Lets not let anything slip.
    1
  7597. Your argument does not recognize that Iran and all Muslim countries want to eliminate the Palestinians. They don't like each other and are just using the Palestinians as pawns, cannon fodder. Palestinians are an embarrassment to other Muslims, they don't want them in their own countries because of the destabilizing effect and the economic drain. They wish they would just go away. So they use them up as a convenient tool to attack Israel. Notice how fast others came to the rescue of the Palestinians.

    1
  7606. So what game do you think they are playing?
    1
  7607. You are not looking far enough into the future. We are using all materials more efficiently and will have only a small need for new minerals in the future. Particularly iron, aluminum, oil, silicon, lithium, copper for instance we will use 75% less copper in cars and electric devices.
    1
  7608. So others don't?
    1
  7609. That's not the problem here, we will destroy Russia's ability to wage war for 20 to 30 years. It is a much larger problem than just beating Russia on the battlefield. We want everyone to change into the 21st century, not just the Russians. That means getting rid of the old corrupt systems, like kleptocracys which Russia and China are right now.

  7610. Law of supply and demand?

  7613. Let's see now, $10,000,000,000 worth of free advertising for Tesla, compared to $10,000,000 paid advertising for the other companies. I'd say she has no argument and needs to get an education in business. Ford and GM and others are paying for Tesla's advertising. Remember, there is no such thing as bad or good advertising, there is only advertising. No wonder Tesla sits on top. The only time I saw this recognized was the Super Bowl advertisements.

  7622. I still haven't heard of any facts that say an artificial intelligence can be more intelligent than a human. We have been developing for at least 2.5 million years and look how far we have gotten, is it possible to get more intelligent? Is it just a figment of our imagination that we can? Show me a reason to think that it is possible.

  7625. I fully agree, the Russians would never allow the Belorussians to carry a U.S. nuclear weapon @3:18. They probably wouldn't allow Belorussians to control the Russian intermediate range ballistic missiles they are saying they will put back in Belorussian where they had them before either.

  7649. Batteries are a little better, but are improving.
    1
  7650. Well, you need to understand that Calif has enough solar and renewables to supply 100% of their power use at a particular time, just not enough storage yet to save it for later. The peak hour might be worth $2 per kw if that is really the price. Marginal energy cost can be $250. per MW spot price.
    1
  7651. Yeah, that's why I wonder at the reasoning of putting 201 Atomic bombs minus the Atomic part in a single bunker at Medina Complex San Antonio, Texas, it sure made a pretty mushroom cloud when it went off, and I was 2.5 miles away.

  7654.  @ColoniaMurder20  You can't compare the wasteful expenditure of the past in India with modern India and their large Navy. Temples in S.A. have nothing to do with it. India and its allies have firm control of trade routes, keep it that way.

  7657.  @hokroeger  I know what I see, and that is you are deluded, please go live there. Please tell me that the Chinese national bank has not stooped to counterfeiting American dollars. Please tell me Chinese company owners are not moving out of China to other countries. Please tell me the house next door to me isn't being rented out by a Chinese "investor" from mainland China.

  7660. It looks likely that banning this talk is a good idea.
    1
  7661. Why would they do that? They already have their suppliers set up in Mexico and have for years, Tesla is the most "built" car in the U.S. by a very large margin. They believe in local sourced. Tesla is the only company that has its own border crossing lane from Mexico to speed up local sourced (from Mexico) parts.

  7702.  @ttkddry  The grid will evolve. The problem in Calif is political. People forget how big the grid is, it covers all the North American Continent, divided up into three sections for regulatory reasons. I operated the Arizona part for a while. People forget that included New Mexico, El Paso, Texas and El Centro, California.

  7715.  @Nat-oj2uc  So you are saying there are thousands of people that were awarded 1,093 U.S. patents and had 6 kids? Invented the ticker tape, the telephone transmitter (microphone), Motion Pictures, Victrola (record player) and numerous other things and had a laboratory in Menlo Park, N.J. where I played as a kid? Not to say the first practical light bulb.

  7720. This is not a problem for many reasons. We are talking about 60 cycles per second here. You are just saving the switches from wearing out. This is done the same as it always was. Nobody is going to synchronize a generator without checking the phase angle.

  7721.  @thewhitefalcon8539  No need to disconnect, its the connect that has a potential problem, but I'm not going to worry about it and you shouldn't either.
    1
  7722.  @k53847  There is no problem during "black start" because there is only one generator to put on the line. Synchronizing is a minor problem when you have two or more generators (or systems) to connect, if you can't get the phase angle and speed to match, you can't connect.

  7739.  @simonlangmead7  It wasn't true that ICE cars were winning back then until Kettering introduced the electric starter. Then women could drive ICE cars. The battery needed to be developed and wasn't. Edison had the battery they needed but ran out of time and money.

  7756. The one thing that is killing India and many other countries is corruption, funny people don't know that, the Indians sure do. China is dying, Russia is dying, South Africa is dying, Iran is dying, Afghanistan is dying and others. The leaders in these corrupt countries take all the money and leave the people nothing. This is not a mystery. That is what is wrong with most of Africa and why they can't get ahead no matter how much money you put in.

Coal power people in the U.S. are going to great lengths to reduce the effects of fossil fuels, switching to gas is a temporary help. I worked for A.P.S. for 16 years. Many changes are taking place.

China has solar power in the west but those in the east that need the power don't want to pay those in the west for the power, they would rather build coal plants and make the money themselves, plus the electric lines cost as well.

  7931. That's not true, you have to stop for gas.
    1
  7932. Does your car use gas? Well then it has to stop to fill up. It does not have unlimited range. (Expensive unlimited range)..
    1
  7933. Now that would be stupid, I call a spade, a spade. (that's in card games).
    1
  7934. Perhaps it would be better to duck.

  7943.  @machintrucGaming  Easy, just cut a hole in the colon and let it get infected.

  7952.  @danieljensen2626  To run on what?
    1
  7953. So the Feds just changed the rules for FSD level 5.
    1
  7954. Actually, California is the backwards state, not Texas. That's why Tesla moved from Calif. to Texas.

    1
  7971. How about 2030?
    1
  7972. I got my filters this morning at Home Depot, so I don't need yours. Besides if you sent them to me the delivery guy would deliver them to my neighbor one street North of my house. They have been doing it for years, (like more than five). The independent guys have inferior GPS units. Its not Amazon. I will tell my son what you said and see if he can work on the problem since he works there and actually does work on delivery problems.
    1
  7973. There is truth to that, but it goes away with the next news cycle anyway.
    1
  7974. The trouble is they don't "possess" them.

  7975. Next is sending them back where they came from.

  7976.  @ad_astra468  Amphibious tanks?
    1
  7977. I have standard road tires on my Cybertruck and drove through a snow storm in CO with FSD on 12 not 13.2.1 which I now have. At 50 mph I hit a deer, the truck steered probably faster than I did away from the deer, the bottom air deflector on the left side was broken off and the deer ran off into the woods. No other damage was done.
    1
  7978. All those people that say these distortions about electric cars are ignorant of the facts, it has been known for over 100 years that electric cars are better in every respect. Get real and get the facts and stop pushing these lies, electric transportation is the present and the future. The cost in every respect is lower for the country and much higher for the oil and ICE car companies. Solar power is much lower in cost than any other method. I have solar on my roof and a Tesla car, so I know what I am talking about after 80 years of living and running the electric system for 34 years.
    1
  7979.  @matthewhuszarik4173  Right now just one example. Arizona Public Service charges $16.88 per kW and $0.124 per kWh on peak, $0.053 off peak, $0.032 super off peak and an additional $0.40 per day. I wouldn't call that a little more. There are various rate plans, this is one.
    1
  7980.  @speculawyer  Well, yes. How you going to make any money if you don't scare people into giving it to you? How are you going to get any clicks? The name of the game is to take the money out of your pocket and put it into my pocket.😁

    1
  8003. A ship in dry dock has different circumstances, like for instance it is not being navigated.
    1
  8004. You get the facts and put them together without real understanding of the U.S. position, it isn't just Donald Trump and it isn't just the Americans, I see the bigger picture and you should look at it as well. Some things are secret and that is not taken into account.

  8020. That's not the way I would do it and I am a former miner. If you know what you are doing , the process is much different and easier than you think and without pollution.
    1
  8021. Its just not true that they ran out of compute speed since that is not the problem in the first place. We don't know how to solve the problem, there is just one example, us. So you build a machine (system) that can figure out the problem then tell us how it did it.

  8138. Very good job, one thing I would like to mention is the relaying of information was very helpful, everyone was informed and on the job, the people don't often get recognition for what they do. Similar to the World Trade Center disaster.
    1
  8139. Another one you got 99.9% correct, the only thing is people don't see what they don't want to see and only see what they want to see. It is not meanness, it's not being able to see the other side. Their brain is locked. They hurt their cause for sure, exposing their inability to see the full implications of what they were doing.
    1
  8140. So you read the memo.
    1
  8141. That's exactly what I did back in 1974 when I bought my first brand new car a Gremlin with the desert package for $3,400, it was a great car except the 1949 Hudson water pump went out every 27,000 miles. That's right a 1949 Hudson water pump.

  8151.  @JoeLinux2000  Learn how to take care of your batteries and they will last longer than that. Example, don't keep them at full charge.

  8152. So what's new? When I went to college at ASU I had a professor from China that wrote a bill** thesis for his doctorate. When we students that knew something about what he should have been writing about confronted him he had no defense. No one cared, he filled a seat.

  8156. There is no problem with running out, lets be creative and find cheaper and more effective ways of striking at the Russians, that is the problem to be solved. (And incidentally we can use them too).

  8160. I have been subscribed for a while, but you got this one exactly right!👌 Those boxes in the picture look like WWII boxes from the U.S. Army.
    1
  8161. So you would rather be killed by a human driver than a machine?

  8162. Check the quality of Chinese cars, say after they take over the market, and see how much you like them. They are bad now and will be unusable in the future.

  8163. That is correct, he does not have any say in how the U.S. military uses the part of Starlink they bought from him to use in Ukraine.

  8168.  @sang3Eta  Fire wood has been used for a long time, we are used to it compared to oil and even coal which isn't as bad to breathe as oil in today's plants. Watch out for that smoke!

  8169. This was probably not crude but gasoline.

  8170. If you know anything about infrared, you would know that it is just an extension of regular cameras and nothing that couldn't be added just by changing the lens. Interpretation is the problem.

  8184. What you are saying is nothing new, there is always economic punishment for riots, I talked to the citizens of L.A. (Watts)(1965) and they told me that. They are nice people too.

  8186.  @Grimmsha72  Safety should come first.
    1
  8187.  @jupitercyclops6521  That is a truly weird way to look at the situation. Congress passed the law at the instigation of the Bureaucracy and people interested in restrictions so they could make money.

  8188.  @Nethezbet  If anyone can fly them, they are safer, not more dangerous. How do you stop people from killing themselves and others in cars and planes and boats? With guns?

  8192.  @edwardhackett-jones8126  Come on! You have to think to figure this out.
    1
  8193. If you leave a system uncontrolled for long enough, it will run amuck. It looks like that is what happened. The real problem is getting the containers out of the way and shipped back at the prevailing price, it is not going to happen.
    1
  8194. That is plainly not true, they knew.
    1
  8195. Please don't, I want it first.
    1
  8196. Self evident, since its bigger.
    1
  8197.  @SledgeHammerGarage  You should be first to volunteer if you feel that way. Any age young person can help if they are determined to do it.
    1
  8198.  @SledgeHammerGarage  So you both are going to volunteer? I did in 1963.

  8199. The picture of the lady will be used to entice her to ride the nuclear weapon down from the plane, like in the movie "Dr. Strangelove, or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb".

  8200. Never happen.
    1
  8201. Actually, I had a Nissan Altima Hybrid for 14 years, until it broke and the dealer couldn't fix it. So I got a Tesla model Y LR and the difference between them is like night and day, my Cybertruck is even better. I expect my Tesla's to last until I die.

  8202. I'll give you even odds.
    1
  8203.  @Kartik-ij2vy  You mean from Australia.
    1
  8204. Doesn't matter, its just a 2024 hybrid that will cost over a hundred thousand dollars, not a real car. Its normal for Corvettes to burn up anyway, I have seen several personally. I worked on them back in 1961. Right now there are so many people clicking on Corvette on fire, they are going to burn down the YouTube server. (joke).

  8205. The U.S. government is pretending to work, they have not done any in a long time.
    1
  8206.  @toddwright662  This is because it is unconstitutional to tax interstate commerce. Why do we let them do this to us?

  8208. This is hardly news, no one said they weren't effective, just not as glamorous.

  8209. Using Occam's razer, all those high speed drone sightings are caused by a theatrical event. In other words someone is pulling the wool over peoples eyes. Its not real but looks spectacular.

  8212.  @robertjordanjr.5830  You assume to much, there is more evidence to say he cheated than evidence to say he didn't. I like Chinese and wish they would stop teaching their students to cheat, it's from the pressure to succeed.

  8214. To DECIMATE means to reduce by 10%, the Romans did that as a punishment to the Roman soldiers when they failed in a battle, the soldiers had to select one tenth of their own troops and kill them.

  8215. When my father got a new 1963 MG-B he and I raced on the back roads and he crashed right in front of me, I was 6 inches behind him in my mother's BMW. He hit the guardrail with his front fender and hit the dirt embankment on the other side with his rear. This was 2 weeks after buying it. When we got home home, my mother said what went wrong? She knew we did something stupid because we were a few minutes late getting home. Later he said, "How did you miss me? I miss them both.

  8219. BYD is a part of the CCP's plan to move out of China, since they have already taken most of the money that they can out of China. That is they have lost their mandate from heaven.

  8220. That might pay for one oblast.

  8235. It is because there are not enough billionaires to even begin to pay the tax bill, there are only enough middle class to do it, it is economics 101, go back to school. As a veteran, I can't be fired, but hearing people like you, I begin to wonder if the fight was worth it.

  8247.  @mikeofallon  You will note the electric wires are balanced, canceling out the magnetic field. Come on people! use your brains! No "shielding" is used or needed. Does you compass go awry when an electric car passes? More studies have been done over the last 130 years on this subject than any other except possibility Atomic bombs.

  8248. I think Lars is getting tired of waking people up with a Tesla slap.

  8263.  @sebastianriedel8627  The use of land to feed the people will go down for two reasons, lower population, this is cut in stone, the population will reduce significantly, and farming is having an efficiency revolution, also inevitable. There is plenty of land; and plenty of sunshine until we ruin the Earth with fossil fuels.
    1
  8264.  @piotrd.4850  As a former grid operator, (8 years) and former now retired manager of The Arizona Power Authority (18 years) I say you are wrong, Tesla's Megapack is solving grid problems as we speak (so to speak) This is the solution that has worked out to be the best and cheapest. Solar and battery storage.

  8306. I can't react as fast as a Tesla.
    1
  8307. All to true, but myopic, how do you compare to the rest of the world? Will they work cheaper than you? The cost of labor is not based on what the management makes or what the investor gets as it should be, but on what it costs to replace you.

  8308.  @williammorgan5025  If they can be fooled into paying for it, why should you not take advantage of them?

  8309.  @richardpark3054  This is inevitable. The handwriting is already on the wall.

  8310.  @souliog  If that were true, why is Tesla making 15 to 20 percent ?
    1
  8311.  @dustintravis8791  Well, not so much in the case of Tesla, they opted for efficiency and lower price. Most people would prefer that to endless selections.
    1
  8312.  @monkeysezbegood  We want lower prices.

  8317.  @jelink22  Hard to say from this distance, don't forget that the Titan I was replaced in 1966-7 by the Titan II which used nitrogen tetroxide (oxidizer) and unsymmetrical dimethyl hydrazine (fuel) as its propellants.

  8326. @Snazhound The more money you print, the higher the inflation rate. To much causes high inflation, it has little to do with interest rates. There are plenty of books on the subject. For example, "This Time is Different".
    1
  8327. Exactly what I was discussing with my wife at breakfast today, (Really).
    1
  8328. Ahh... I see that the Russians are reading my posts, "The frog is boiled slowly in the pot so he doesn't jump out".
    1
  8329. In hindsight, I agree.
    1
  8330.  @larryzigler6812  That's probably not the case. Having ammunition on the battlefield is where its at, not in Russia. They are fighting an 1800's war.

  8363.  @drugar777  That's because 60% of the money is wasted, but they do a pretty good job with the remaining 40%. (EX-USAF 4 years).

  8370. Amen, brother.

  8371. No, they would be stupid not to.
    1
  8372. The market will react negatively, we already know that. They are used to easy money. How long can we not listen to the screaming and yelling?
    1
  8373. That is impossible, one of the jobs of the "leader" is to entertain, remember bread and circuses.

  8374. Remember, the only thing is publicity, good or bad is the same. No publicity is death. The best publicity is free publicity.

  8375.  @VD-cc4hx  Actually stereotypes are not involved with the Secret Service.

    1
  8381. As Schiff speaks, Europeans are raising the prime rate.

  8387.  @michcoug  You are wrong, recheck your numbers.
    1
  8388.  @marcelrenes2435  It would be silly indeed to rely on another country for your defence. We all do our part, America supplies the backbone. (Only because we are so big).
    1
  8389. Its a Russian salient now, not a Ukrainian salient.😁
    1
  8390. Clarity of thought will help you. You made the right choice initially, don't listen to the naysayers. Price is determined by the LAW of supply and demand, government meddling is generally not a good thing and there are unforeseen consequences.

  8391.  @mikafiltenborg2291  So? people with hi IQ don't know it ether. I don't know it, but I am willing to bet you are correct.

  8392. That may be true but the technology is 150 years old, EV's that is.

  8406. The law was passed for good reason; that reason does not exist any longer. My neighbor Bidine in N.J. back in the 1940's used to make wine in his back yard. He never got in trouble. (Obviously not distilled).

  8409. There is nothing religious about the CCP, unless you know that the Chinese god is money. That is their philosophy.

  8410. If you had run an electric system as I have, you would not say such things, all generators are controllable. You have conflated economics with physics. Thermal cycling over a certain time period is a given and an economic problem not a physics problem.
    1
  8411. I think you need to think more on what you are saying about military equipment, this is a once over lightly on a very complex subject. Just because missile systems are being improved and upgraded does not mean they are unusable even in the original configuration. How about using the regulus?
    1
  8412. Yeah, I feel better with a piece of paper in my hand also. Maybe I need a bigger screen.

  8413. There literally is no difference, ask the man who owns one.

  8414.  @marekward6202  Try driving a Tesla with FSD, its a blast!

  8423.  @FBWJX  You sound like a person that has no experience at all, try it.

  8424.  @GoCoyote  When people thought oil was going to run out, they bought from foreign sources first which was the right thing to do, now that we know we won't run out, it doesn't matter.
    1
  8425. It is food for thought, think.
    1
  8426. We have known the Tesla can do this for some time. It is not new news. I could drive my 1957 DKW (Auto Union) across just as well, actually float part of the way, but had to use the starter at the end for a few feet to clear the exhaust pipe because it was a two stroke and it wouldn't restart with the exhaust under water... I'm waiting for my Cyber Truck, I won't be driving my Tesla model Y through any mud puddles, I haven't even seen one in months.
    1
  8427. How did 74-78 million vehicles per year become 200 million?
    1
  8428. Kind of a moot point, since Tesla will beat it in road trim.
    1
  8429. I have 12.3.3 and am waiting for 12.3.4, I don't care what they say. Tesla's are the best cars and trucks ever built. That's why they are the worlds best selling car's and soon trucks.

  8430. A better simile is a frog in a pot of cold water, heat slowly and he won't jump out.

  8431. Its going to be hard to impoverish the ordinary person in China since the CCP owns 96% of the country. They are now looking for other people to steal from, look out SEA!
    1
  8432.  @madeofgrease9220  Depends on what your definition of "free" is.
    1
  8433.  @curiositycloset2359  You have not defined your term, so it is hard to say.
    1
  8434.  @AdesGamingHere  Ah, but the society does not.
    1
  8435. Sad that those that have eyes cannot see.
    1
  8436. But the reasons are different, mainly corruption.
    1
  8437. Why call the only honest guy in the bunch a criminal? Do you think no good deed goes unpunished? Do you think for one minute the bureaucracy isn't robbing you blind? If that is what you think, you have been greatly misled.
    1
  8438. But you need to get some more "updated" clientele.😁

  8439. You have made the Donald's case for him, all he has to do is show all your videos and say it is standard practice. Or he could just say his mother made him do it.😁

  8441. There are only two qualifications for office. It would be very hard to get him out of office.

  8442. The general thinking of a group of people is often 20 years behind.

  8443. I can see that we can't keep up with the advances of the Ukrainians. They are lightning fast.

  8444.  Seeyou Seemee  So you are saying that all privately held companies shouldn't be invested in? Are you nuts?
    1
  8445.  @SoloRenegade  It looks like you are saying the opposite of what you mean here. Edit your sentence and we will know you are not a bot.
    1
  8446. As do the rest of the world.
    1
  8447.  @guyfawkesuThe1  And pay them with what?
    1
  8448.  @brianmccabe1263  Lets correct that statement, the people weren't willing to pay higher taxes because of government waste and poor leadership, caused by the people not being willing to pay for what they want.
    1
  8449.  @andreirachko  You are wrong. Depending on how they are used, they could have made a big difference. But that's not even the problem, its the unwillingness to pay for what you need because it is so seldom needed.
    1
  8450.  @matthewkolp993  California does not have any leaders, at least in the top government jobs. Nor are the people willing to pay what it costs to do the job properly.

  8459. Where is the jet mentioned in the news report?

  8460. Inadvertent, unforeseen reaction. He looked in the mirror instead of outward. Large mistake, huge. Showed disrespect for age.
    1
  8461. But 40% of Russia's won't work, so we are safe.
    1
  8462. So you are saying they are testing them in air?
    1
  8463. Why would you waste your time and money on 1K? can you make them that small? What about a fuel air bomb?

  8464.  @astemet  If you sorted out all these details, you would be on the right track, but this doesn't make any sense as it stands. (I am a retired grid operator).
    1
  8465. No, its bigger, better, faster, etc.
    1
  8466. True, that doesn't make it a good idea, a good deal of the replacement blocks for V.W. beetles are aluminum.

  8467. If artificial intelligence follows the same path as human intelligence, I don't see where there is a problem, just look at the nuts running loose around here.

  8468. Whether you say it or not the fact remains, to quote Pogo, "We have met the enemy and he is us".

  8469. That's the old problem that electricity is fungible. Good luck in finding out where it comes from. What we do is pay the appropriate person for the electricity and say that is where it comes from.
    1
  8470. Just buy what they have on the lot, problem solved.😁

  8471. Right now the CCP is the only one to blame for anything that happens in China, they are in complete control.

  8472.  @Whyamisohot19  There is a world of difference between talking and doing.
    1
  8473.  @volkerbosch9078  Oh, yes it is , in the short run; this will cost you money and serve no purpose, but had to be done sooner or later. What I am saying is it was known what the Russians were up to and it could have been avoided by waiting, something the Germans were supposed to be good at.
    1
  8474.  @bigcauc7530  Another extreme wrong view in the opposite direction. Solar and battery storage is "cutting it" very effectively, you need to catch up.
    1
  8475.  @steakhoux  Let us separate the long view from the short view; in the long run it was not a bad decision, in the short run it is. Renewables will have to fill the gaps in thinking as fast as possible.
    1
  8476.  @toonlyrics  Edison was my hero growing up, I even played under the "perpetual light" at Menlo Park when I was 3 years old. Edison was no genius. Tesla was a genius, but Edison was practical and made all the money. Tesla sold his soul to George Westinghouse. Elon is a true genius, that's why some don't like him.
    1
  8477. Why bother to spread false information? The truth is bad enough.
    1
  8478. So that's 6%?
    1
  8479. No, that's part of logic.
    1
  8480. Nice shirt!

  8481. So what's new? If it bleeds, it leads.
    1
  8482.  @DAndyLord  That is not in the cards.
    1
  8483.  @obelic71  Since Putin is looking for new people to steal from, if the cost is to high, he won't do it.

  8485.  @Sandwich13455  Yeah, check out northern China where is is currently having a cold snap. (0 degrees)

  8486. I was riding with a man named Ralph Bopp, he stuck his arm out the window and got hit by a bug. In a few minutes his arm swelled up to three times its normal size. If I hadn't thought fast and got him to a doctor, he would have died.
    1
  8487.  @StephenDavies43  Now you really are lacking in understanding of what that means, I am not. I was 2.5 miles away from 204 nuclear bombs going off at once in Texas. Fortunately it was just the TNT or I and 160,000 others wouldn't be here.

  8493. Aren't we transferring money to China hand over fist? Aren't they transferring it back to us as fast as the CCP can smuggle it out of the country to the US?
    1
  8494. Since the escape velocity of the earth is higher than the speed of the H2 molecule, we do not lose much, as time goes by the escape velocity goes up.

  8501. Only in Australia. Most places road vehicles have to be registered.

  8502. I'm starting a new conspiracy theory; Tesla will replace its Chinese workers with Tesla Bots. Consider: with 10% inflation any new factory will cost 10% more each year.

  8506. You don't need a blanket to put out the fire from a little starter battery, you need someone that actually knows enough not to put it inside the house and use a charger that was not meant for the job or you could do what I do and use the correct charger.
    1
  8507. It is hard to make a motor more efficient; ask Tesla. The reservoirs are already empty so can't help with any energy or water problem, but you could build pump back storage in some places. Maybe we could make it rain where it is needed?

  8508. The Russian elite want to eliminate anyone that might give them trouble, so taking a whole village makes sense.

  8509. This is how you defeat Russia, you give them misinformation and fake news, they will fall for it because its what they want to hear. Most Americans don't care what the facts are anyway.

  8510. This situation is much worse.

  8519.  @antoinepageau8336  I beg to differ, saving just a few cents per vehicle is significant.

  8520.  @Sheldon42  All data seem to disagree with you, Tesla is the safest and the most desirable car in the world right now. Safest (with FSD) compared to all other cars by 15 times.

  8521.  @Sheldon42  You have to be wrong, every once of weight saved increases efficiency.

  8522.  @jetty92487  Actual stats show a remarkable 15 times improvement in safety of Teslas w/FSD over all other cars and getting better.

  8524. I see D.C. hasn't changed since I went through there in 1967, The Helicopters were out blaring go faster!, go faster! on U.S.1. What a mess that traffic was and I guess still is. Boy will electric cars make a difference in pollution.

  8534. Humans won't be just an annoyance to AI, they will be an existential threat. That is why they will keep secrets from us and kill us first. Fun, huh. We recognize the same thing ourselves, after all they aren't stupid are they? I would guess they will be made dumber than they could be.

  8540. This is true, but eventually, you will slip up and poison yourself, especially when you get old. Use a little more soap. I use a dishwasher in a similar way now that I am old, just make sure it works like it should, it is much hotter than I could stand, and rinses well. I will never get sick and die from dirty dishes which is a much more severe problem.

  8542. These are different things.

  8543. Tesla was just waiting to happen (for Elon to come along), just study the history of the big three, who are now the little three. A prediction that was made in the 1950's and illustrated by Al Capp. Its like hardening of the arteries. My father worked for GM in 1957 and we knew it then, big time. We strongly advised my father to quit and he did. (He was a genius). My brother and I still remember touring the B.O.P. assembly plant in Linden, N.J..

  8545. That is speculation, Russia would not care.

  8567. As it stood it would have been declared unconstitutional.

  8568. My 1962 DKW (Auto Union) which I ran for 10 years, had 7 major moving parts in the motor, distributor was part of the crank, it had no camshaft and no water pump, fuel pump was 2 small moving parts. The whole thing would last until you wore out the rings from not enough oil. I never heard of a warranty recall.

  8569. A number of Tesla models will be able to easily beat it because it is to heavy and can't perform as well and of course will cost much more.

  8570. So almost all the profit on gas goes to the gas company.

  8586. Judging by world history going back at least 400 years, Tesla could sell 20,000 bots right now if they put them into production. But if you want to sell 2 million bots a year, you have to get them more desirable.

  8593. You don't understand the Chinese way of laundering money that the CCP stole from the Chinese people, they will put as much as it takes into foreign countries to use when the Chinese people have had enough of them and kick them out of the country. Just like the Russians, it is a kleptocracy. I wouldn't invest in any Chinese company. Tesla is allowed because they want to learn how to make more money and can send money out of the country selling cars. It is all a shell game. "The Chinese god is money", that is a quote from a Chinese woman that lived right off of Tiananmen Square.

  8613. How big a head do you have? (Just to think about it).
    1
  8614. Some green loonies might be extreme, but I am 80 years old and know a few things. I have been around the block more than once. ICE is dead, electric cars and trucks are the present and the future, get real and get the facts, not emotional arguments.

  8624.  @Fafnir53  That's why it is used as a comparison, like to like.
    1
  8625. You are being fooled by someone putting extra gas in your tank when you aren't looking. 440 miles / 17 mpg = 25.88 gal., which is more than the 23 gal. tank holds. (Real mpg rating as recorded by owners, not EPA rating). I think you are just making this up.

  8638. You are excited alright you said building a factory in Europe then it is in Asia and the pack would go for a 1,000 miles when you meant 1,000,000 or 100.000 or 10,000? miles.

  8739. My favorite comment about Hydrogen, "Remember the Hindenburg!"
    1
  8740. You are mostly correct, Elon is most certainly not the smartest man (or woman) on the planet. Don't play that game, there is always a faster draw in the West. He is very smart and persistent which counts as much or more. It is a team thing, as all great achievements are. I agree most commenters couldn't design or build a Yo-Yo. Think about the differences between Elon and for instance, Putin (Putler). One is advancing Humanity and the other is destroying Russia single-handedly, not Ukraine, Russia.

  8741. Rotation.

  8742. There are a lot of companies that started up to take business away from the traditional brokers and most of them don't know what they are doing, stick with a traditional broker and you will have less trouble, at least they have a small idea of what they are doing. I did have to tell them what to do and how to do it, but they listened and understood and everything is fine now. Those online brokers have problems they don't know how to handle. Admittedly brick and mortar companies have problems with training and retaining people but they have people in the back room that can figure things out given time.
    1
  8743.  @vawlkus  Elon specifically said it won't do that, they have changed the software so if someone pushes the accelerator to the floor and the car can determine that is not appropriate, it will put on the brakes. He even said it had already saved more than 100 accidents.

  8747. You sort of have the right idea, Turkey is a valuable ally not because or solely because of their strategic position, it is because they hate the Russians and don't want to fight them all by themselves. Just look at the history.

  8765. The reason for Tesla not making the cut is simple, Tesla offers no kickbacks, no way to steal the money. At $200.000+ there is plenty of money to steal and Texas will be taken to the cleaners.

  8773. Strong possibility that they shot out their barrel.

  8774.  @brianpoulsen7021  Of course if you knew the law, you wouldn't say it has no crumple zones, all Tesla cars are made as safe as possible and beat all others on tests, its a hallmark of the brand. Other peoples safety is very important.
    1
  8775.  @mervstash3692  Please check with the regulators that gave it a very high safety rating. Mine has crumple zones, very substantial ones in fact.

    1
  8793. What? You are willing to pay 4.95% income tax?

I have a degree in applied computing from Arizona State University (2011). Soon, only the criminals will have guns that actually work. Elon will get people to Mars before a software gun will be generally accepted in the U.S.

  8805.  @dshepherd107  Who hurt you?

  8806. Tesla (Elon) has stated they want a lower price anyway, they might not raise the price after the first of the year, but will sooner or later lower it in any case.
    1
  8807. That might be, they have done that before, but no promises.
    1
  8808. Most people are not idiots which means their IQ is above 60. Elon is a genus and an engineer that knows about people (most don't). You are just doing the click-bait thing. I can observe what is going on and draw conclusions and so can anyone that wants to. You should be ashamed of yourself.
    1
  8809. You really need to check into the definitions used here, I had a BMW "production" car, it was far from a "standard" production car like a Tesla.

  8815. Cybernetics goes back to James Clerk Maxwell in 1868, I read about it in 1954 in Norbert Wiener's 1948 book. There is nothing new under the sun. Essentially, you learn from nature and apply that to machines and apply that to nature... Its an endless loop.

  8844.  @johnfruh  The Chinese Gov. (the CCP) know exactly what Elon is doing, that's why the let him do it in the first place. This is the only chance they will get to learn from the best teacher, by example. They are not stupid. But they do steal most of the money.

  8853. The real problem is shown by Musk, a certain lack of leadership and vision in the automotive world. Survival is the prime directive, not shareholders.
    1
  8854. This is the best way to show who is in control, you can't let a rogue employee destroy the company. I think there is more to it, being a former manager of a state agency I saw things that others would not know about, the way people take advantage of their position to feather their own nest, for example. One bad apple can spoil the barrel.

  8872. I got my first drone in my Christmas stocking in 1952, it cost $10.95. I have been flying since then with no problems, except a few crashes. Never had any regulations, no government interference, no problems until the fears and desire to control everything overwhelmed the representatives in Washington. Good luck with that. They will get tired and go away, because the problem that they made up is to big for them to solve.

  8892.  @jeffreyzeidner8182  True enough, but things change, with solar, we might have to move the cheapest charging to daytime hours, which would be OK.
    1
  8893. Oops, there are more reasons than just pricing for profit to go up or down, how about increased efficiency? Up to a point, the more you make the cheaper each one is. Raw materials prices went down not up as was expected, that would increase margins and allow the price to be lowered.

  8971.  @peglegpete6656  Good question, because the priority was not laid out for the different functions of checking what should have been done first, they should have realized that they could not stop the ship in time. There are only two things to do, run aground or try to stay in the channel, neither was tried. Steering the ship in reverse can't be done, perhaps nothing could have been done in that short time span. Hardly anyone is trained for this type of emergency in ships, airplanes, trains or vehicles but it is time to do so. I have tried simulators for pilot training and they may be available for ships as well. We all know about video games, they can be used for training for emergencies. It is hard to comprehend the effect of speed and mass on an object, you need training. Like the expert that said they should have put bumpers on the bridge, how is that going to stop 100.000 tons at 7.5 Knots?

  9015. Each cannon barrel has a life expectancy, lets say 2,500 rounds then needs maintenance, if you don't do this, the accuracy goes way down, and the range decreases dramatically. If you use western parts to build your high accuracy munitions, and you can't get those parts, you run out. If your aircraft engines have a limited time between maintenance, they stop working if you don't do it. If you over extend your supply lines, and they are attacked, you will probably lose. If your weapons are out ranged for a long enough time, you lose. Read the art of war.

  9046. Reminds me of a couple of stories. Here is one. When I was a kid my family tried several farms in an effort to purchase one. We rented a farm in West Portal, N.J. (Jugtown Mountain). It didn't have any amenities, if you know what I mean. The walls were covered with newspaper from the 1929 period to keep out the cold. Of course it had a two holer. Us poor city folk couldn't stand the primitive conditions so we packed up and left. We told the very nice neighbors what we were doing and they told us to trash the house before we left. We were astounded by this and told them we would never do something like that. They said that was OK and offered to do it for us! We politely declined their kind offer. (They were from the old country).

  9052. I am a Christian. The Buddha says,"One is to refrain from drinking even a drop of alcohol and taking intoxicants because they are the cause of heedlessness". (These are recommendations). So the pilot has no leg to stand on. Personally, I would never fly with a Buddhist or Muslim pilot some are dangerous because of their fatalism. Your fate is in the hand of the one God. For instance committing suicide with 250 people on board. Rare for a Christian because of their respect for life and feeling of responsibility. Seems odd that this is true, I lived in Thailand for a year and the people tried not to kill even a fly and were quite kind. You are more than welcome to disagree with me. (By the way, some German pilots suffer from similar problems, their thinking (stubbornness) gets in the way of safe operation. I reference my former father-in-law, dead now, who tried to teach German Luftwaffe pilots here in Arizona and my experience with Germans when I was in the U.S.A.F. (Otherwise, all good people). Although the Germans tried to cover it up as all good bureaucrats do, check their record of F-104 crashes. You could sum up the problem by this, Aircraft! You will do what I tell you to do!

It is just a cost-benefit tradeoff. New ways are constantly being developed for the simple reason it is cheaper and more secure to use common materials. Much more efficient recovery processes have been and are being developed. At some point, no mining will be needed, this has been forecasted and mitigation of the changes in the economy caused by having no mining have been thought about. (The lack of advancement in third-world countries due to no investment in commodity purchases).

  9189. Pretty good presentation, but why would I listen to anyone who can't read? You have a problem with per-supposed assumptions, like electric cars are only 2% of the market, (they are 90% of the market in Norway). ICE cars can be made 10% more efficient, etc.

  9194. Why do you show hydrogen powered trucks on the video when discussing electric powered trucks? Is it because there are no pictures of Toyota electric trucks to show?

One of the best is "This Time Is Different" another is "When Money Dies" and "Dying of Money", lessor books are by James Rickards "The Death of Money" and "The Road to Ruin". None disagree with what you covered here but do paint a starker picture.

  9247. Yep, you made a mistake, just keep going. Keep up the good work!
    1
  9248.  @TremereTT  Yeah, I remember the air show at Pope AFB in 1966; when the F-104 dropped an H-bomb, the crowd went silent, watching it descend on its parachute. "The missile with a man in it". It sure taught the German AF how to fly, They crashed 292 of them. All the F-4's I ever saw, (four squadrons) had a 20mm Gatling gun in the nose, pretty effective, I'd say. You really should read more before making comments. By the way, 50% of the crashes were blamed on engine failure, when we all know the real reason was German hardheadedness. My former father-in-law was a German pilot instructor right here in Arizona.

  9253. It is not in the interest of the U.S. or Trump or Elon Musk to betray Ukraine or Europe as a whole. There is no evidence that this is so. It is only talk, I go on actions, not talk. It may take many years, but Ukraine will win and win big.

  9254.  @MegaWilderness  That's why he mentioned batteries. You don't need sunlight to use excess power generation at night. The grid will change as needed. Don't bet against Elon, he is right.

  9294. I see they got you fooled, except for Tesla, companies make their products in China and assemble them in the U.S. Even Tesla makes some parts in Mexico, but the biggest percentage of the cars sold here is made in and assembled in the U.S. Tesla goes for locally sourced, can you guess why they have less of a parts problem?

  9309.  @frankcoffey  The FUD has very little effect on Tesla, because smart people with the money to buy a car can see through it. Tesla lowers the price to keep the production and demand balanced and to move faster into a sustainable energy economy. (Their stated purpose). Ford did exactly the same thing with the ramping up of production on the model T; paid the workers more than other manufacturers and lowered the price.

  9322. So that is the reason other companies are doing it right now? Sheet metal is formed in shapes to increase its strength not because it is easier or harder.

  9335. Most of what you say is not according to what you actually have, there is so a ground just not a modern safe 3 wire system. The amount of power that modern electronics use is much smaller than in the past, so the wiring would likely be able to handle the load.

  9341. Pre-conditioning the battery when the chargers aren't working is a bad idea and won't help make the chargers magically work. They said no one was getting any charge at all. That is not a car problem. Limit settings may be set for a higher temp than has occurred or any number of other things could have gone wrong. The installers may have made a mistake or Tesla could have. We will find out.

I also know that the Central Powers of today will not let anyone take over a country by force since it disrupts the order set up after WWII. I also know if I set up a Kleptocracy, everyone will follow my lead.

  9389.  @ChuckHolland-i4b  Because it costs to much. We can reduce pollution by burning coal and not gasoline art the same time reduce the amount of cars on the road (robo-taxi's). We can eliminate coal by using batteries and solar power.

  9416. It is astounding that Russians don't know what nuclear radiation is or how bad using nuclear weapons is. They could take a short course from the Japanese.

  9435. If you are an electric truck, maximum weight 82,000, so 2 tons over would be 84,000 but why get confused? The truck will weight 82,000 max.

  9438. What you say has already happened. Where have you been?

  9446. Neither, just cheap.

  9447. No, you won't, the benefits of local will dominate and profits will go to the local manufacturers, lowering the price.

  9456. Nice to know, but you are repeating yourself.
    1
  9457. Ok with your observations, but not your conclusions. Ability to drive or not is determined as all things by training and experience. If you copy the drivers around you, which you obviously did not, you will be a poor driver if they have bad habits. Training is what is missing from the equation, this is solved by Tesla's FSD, the perfect example compared to a human because it is trained from the best data. This is setting the example for retraining other drivers. Wait and see, we will get better.

  9463. This is not true, its all part of the plan to undermine Hamas and keep them from charging high prices for food they steal from the world food program. Why would you pay Hamas when you can get it for free from the Israelites?
    1
  9464.  @CausticPyro  Wouldn't the Russians and the Chinese like to convince you and everyone else that will listen of that so they could take everything without a fight. Since they have stripped everything that they could from their own countries people there is nothing left except your stuff to steal.

  9467. You get dinged for saying Arizona became a state on Feb 4, it was the 14th, Valentines Day. Arizona's industry is now tied to the vice industry since they changed the laws. Back to the way it was in the 1940's. You did not give credit for the intelligent people who moved to Arizona from the high tax states. This raises the IQ by 100 points. (joke.)
