Critics have been saying that for 20 years, but it doesn’t happen.

Ford, Toyota, VW etc already have plenty of factories to build cars and can partner with suppliers for electric technology (car makers outsource the supply of 70-80% of their components). They have large exiting markets which are much bigger than Tesla's. They aren't looking to take over Tesla's market, they're looking to keep and grow their existing market share. If electric cars are the future, then it's obvious that existing manufacturers will move that way.

The new Supra is a BMW, it's a re-skinned Z4 and made on the same production line.

Since when is Australia responsible for significant deforestation? Iâ(TM)m not aware that we are reducing our net tree cover at all. In fact there are financial reasons not to cut down trees, even plantations grown for wood are being protected because itâ(TM)s more profitable not to cut them down.

In medical terms ”invasive” means to surgically enter the body, so this fits the definition of non-invasive. It also sounds very clever!

Exactly! That’s why people stick with Windows. It comes with their machine and it does what they need. I doubt whether the “average” user has even heard of Linux...

Youâ(TM)re way off with suggesting that Australian Deserts will become greener, itâ(TM)s becoming hotter and much drier here.

Surely one of Waymo’s biggest challenges is that they are not a car manufacturer. As successful as they may be at developing the technology to drive a car by computer, its incredibly difficult and expensive to start building your own cars - just ask Elon Musk. At best Waymo could license their technology to existing manufacturers to use in their vehicles, but I suspect that every major car manufacturer on earth is working on their own solution. And they all have working vehicle platforms to fit them to.

So it’s come down 11.5% over 10 years. That’s a great start but what about the other 88.5%? Given that the reduction is largely due to switching to gas for power and warmer winters, it might be hard to continue the reductions. And nuking China would cause the retaliatory nuking of the US, so probably not a good idea. The subsequent nuclear winter would cool the earth, but it’s a pretty messy way to geoengineer the climate...

Such courage!

It’s really not possible that Apple coppied Essential. There were leaked images of the iPhone X notch well before the Essential phone was enveiled. The Essential only went on sale 1 month before the iPhone X. How long do you think it takes to develop and put a product like the iPhone X into production?

Just enroll your face with helmet on. Of course the Stig will be able to unlock your phone, but otherwise it should solve the problem!

So the Tesla can automatically pull into a gas station when it gets low on fuel? That's impressive!

Apple tops the American Customer Satisfaction Index for Smartphones and they have topped the index for PC manufacturers for the last 13 years running. They sell more product than any other company (of any kind) in the world and they are the most valuable company on earth. I think your opinion of their pending demise might be a bit premature!
