is what they really want.

Wow, I had no idea you were dumb enough to fall for the Red Scare.

Who needs school when we have TikTok?

Now that they've gotten rid of this woke DEI nonsense, they can spend 10x as much on some more wholesome and less-indoctrinating educational materials! /s

The worst threat to the US automotive industry is the US automotive industry.

In 2016, over a quarter million people put down $1000 for a Tesla Model 3, with no firm date for delivery from a company which wasn't producing even 100,000 cars a year. That should have told the US automotive industry something. Today, it's sibling, the Model Y, was the fourth best selling car in the USA in 2024. The US automotive industry has been completely incapable of building a similarly attractive vehicle, although it has made a couple of really good ones that just haven't caught on. The most exciting competitors to Tesla have been Kia and Hyundai, both South Korean companies (which, coincidentally, is where GM's 2017 Bolt EV was designed).

Why haven't the Detroit guys been successful? Answer that question, and you'll know why they're their worst threat.

It's quite amusing that some troll follows me around modding down any comments where I suggest humans should cooperate with one another. They are literally proving my point by moving things backwards with their solitary cowardice.

PHB1: "We have to do something AI-ish, everyone else is!"

PHB2: "Here's one, have bots compile podcasts from our news articles."

PHB1: "Brilliant! Make it so."

[months later]

PHB2: "Um, the podcast bot has been making silly errors. Should we keep it?"

PHB1: "How is our competition doing with their AI?"

PHB2: "They suck also."

PHB1: "Okay, let's keep it so we can have AI on our brochures and resumes."

That it's a competitive system is the problem. The world advances through cooperation.

Yep. "I can take this $11 million, turn it into $17 million really quick, then pocket the extra and make that series.". Then when the $11 million becomes $4 million the spiral begins.

You seem to have forgotten we have read your comments.

Good. Fuck off and don't come back, hypocrite.

I see that you are ignorant of the USA's entire history in Central and South America. This is my surprised face.

lost contact...after it passed behind Mars. When it reemerged from behind the planet, the spacecraft never resumed communications.

I toldja, never leave sight of Mommy! Space Ghosts eat little probes like you!

ICE probes Uranus and Myanus

I worked with a sociopath I'll call "Bill" who we strongly suspect deleted and sabotaged many things. Mayhem had a long history of following Bill, as we asked former colleagues to make sure we were not losing our minds. We learned to back-up and document stuff like crazy to work around it. Bill seemed to have a lot of experience covering his tracks, such as knowing which systems didn't keep logs.

Depends on how many RVs you give the Court.
