Oh dear god, can this be more full of wild speculation?
They have been possible for well over 4 decades, mythbusters build them on a regular basis, one blew up so massively that it spread the car across the desert after it hit the ramp.

Honestly I really wish the sensationalism would go away and DICE would hire people that actually knew something about the technology.

Lastly it is a LOT easier to convince someone to blow themselves up in the name of their god than it is to build a remote control/ robotic car. This is a non-issue designed only to scare people about technology.

Tesla is sending a message.

Their message is, "we are not GM, we care about the customer instead of trying to ignore and rip off the customer"

If a company stands behind their product they offer a very long life warranty. If they know their product is crap, you get a short warranty. There is a reason that GM cars come with 36,000 mile 3 year warranties..

Comment How to fix ALL the app stores... (Score 4, Insightful) 249

Step 1 remove ALL the freaking flashlight, mirror, and fart apps. All of them.
Step 2 no longer allow any app that replicates abilities in the stock phone.
Step 3 Free ad choked apps are not allowed to be called "free" but "advertising supported"
Step 4 eliminate in app purchases.
Step 5 only apps that have no ads can be called free, groups can release open source free apps for zero cost to them.
Step 6 all apps have a 30 minute 100% refund return policy. If I buy an app and find it is crap, I can get a 100% refund and it is removed from my phone.

THAT is how you fix not only the apple store but the android and all other "app" stores.
