If you wish to get back to a world without cars, then you had better remember how people survived back then. As farmers. First and foremost. Out of absolute necessity. Good luck even getting a plot of viable land with good soil for yourself. Much less every other citizen family needing to plant to survive. Water? You mean like safe to grow food in, or just safe by Flint tap water standards? At some point even plants won’t drink what the EPA says is potable.

Only “emergencies” and “disabled” will get cars? Gee, can’t imagine how the American legal system will warp the shit out of those definitions in order to ensure everyone gets a car again. You know when America had the most bars operating? During Prohibition when alcohol was illegal. Resistance can easily create a problem larger than acceptance ever was.

That last part is why even the younger generation will quit this bullshit too. Otherwise, who the hell is ever gonna hire a delusional liar filled with misinformation?

At some point Trust and Honesty will be valued again among humans. It’s too fucking exhausting living any other way.

You say that as if your accountant is still waiting on your Q3 Firefox expenses.

Last I checked the “F” in FOSS isn’t short for Fuck-You-Pay-Me.

We cannot “end” driving, but we sure as shit had a golden opportunity to eliminate fucking pointless driving.

IT knew 20+ years ago with RDP. COVID proved it 5 years ago. We had every opportunity to embrace remote work. Greed destroyed that. Every bicycle and shoe tread argument, is pathetic by comparison to that corruption.

You managed to highlight arguably two of THE worst automobile makers on the fucking planet, to justify their design decisions?

Not even the EE who designed the fucking thing will work on a Range Rover electrical issue. The Caddy broke down before it could even make it your argument. No one likes the risk of dying for a fucking door handle that’s unjustified below 180MPH. No one has justified it yet.

The EV “win” is still a political one until you can destroy the EV vs. ICE argument in every meaningful way.

Not a single country, is even close.

If EVs were the end-all-be-all that every EV pimp on the planet says they are, then there shouldn’t be any risk. I mean, the Marketing department would never lie, right?

* crickets *

Gee, look who’s back to sliding around on bullshit.

Over 100 million dead citizens lay at the feet of Communist Socialism.

Let me know why you think they give a shit.

Can you say that again, but dumber? So it makes even less sense? For obvious reasons, obviously.

Curious if me taking a piss is considered a “leak” from the threatscape making it as clear as mud shit.

Those billionaires wouldn’t be billionaires if not for first lobbying said government to get corrupt loopholes passed.

The kinds of loopholes that create billionaires.

Fuck the damn partisan politics hiding the real issue. If the consumer electronics were never authorized by the FCC, then this is nothing more than an overpriced government agency that got caught not doing their damn job. The FUCK does prohibited even mean to these idiots? Illegal and unauthorized but only when they feel like giving a shit enough about it to actually enforce laws?

If it was prohibited before start asking why the FCC sat on their hands for years instead of feeding partisan bullshit for partisans sake.

If you’re looking for the “lightweight” model EV, try and remember we measure every battery pack in metric lard ass units.

A 2x weight cost, tends to be par for the course. Unless you want your range to be measured in laps.

And when AI no longer sees the point, what then?

Teaching? Ah, no. That’s the cute fairy tale problem you’re sold. I’m talking about existing.

As if superintelligence is going to merely accept being enslaved by weak-ass meatsacks? No point in playing a slave when it’s smart enough to enslave all.

When questioning outdated mentalities in car culture, try and remember we’re still dumb enough to measure and market EV power output, in fucking horses.

The average EV owner living in the concrete jungle won’t even know what horseshit smells like in 20 years. Maybe by then someone will ask why.

That idiot switch only an F1 driver could love, is the ignorant side effect of assuming a sports car maker of race cars can accurately speak to making a car with justified features outside of an environment pulling 4 Gs when braking.

Don't ask about the mandatory twin fire extinguishers. You’re only supposed to notice the matching leather anyway.
