Over 1 million EVs sold worldwide in 2017, huge growth rate
In the 4th quarter of 2007 Apple only sold a bit over 1 million iPhones. Clearly a loser product, just like EVs.

Boycott everyone that ends a price in 9 and where do you plan on buying anything?
Talk about a petty grievance. Why not stop buying gasoline that ends in
Walmart didn't invent pricing that ended in a 9, go look at an old Sears ad from 60+ years ago.
They've already reduced the price of the iPhone 7 to reflect that it is an older model. The 10% discount is on top of the price reduction.
The outer shell and battery are the primary wear items in a phone. Replace those and you are pretty much as good as new.
They also replace any defective modules, it is cleaned to a like new state and you get a full factory warranty identical to a new product.
I think his analogy is pretty accurate
Do you understand that the selling price of the refurbished iPhone 7 isn't 90% of what they originally sold for, much less Apple's 2018 models?
Or that they replaced the entire exterior and the primary wear item, the battery?
Utter nonsense.
You are confusing the term EOL, which refers to when a manufacturer will stop selling an IC, with how long it is expected to last.
ASICS don't get designed to last 3 years
When the company in Florida does business with people/companies in New York or commits a crime in New York (such as stealing the identity of people who live in New York.
You don't have to physically set foot in a state to commit a crime in that state.
Why start with a 737 class aircraft when the Norwegians are talking about short haul flights with much smaller passenger counts?
I just can't figure out why my demonstrably impractical electric automobiles have safely and reliably been driven over 65,000 miles without any problems.
Heck, I can't even figure out what is impractical about them at all. Can't be the zero time I spend standing out in the rain, wind, cold, dust, heat fueling them. Can't be the zero time I've spent getting oil changes. Can't even be the cost since they have been far cheaper to own than the gas powered automobiles that proceeded them.
Those crazy Wright brothers were just plain nuts, nobody in their right mind would see any practical use for their glorified hang gliders.
H2 vehicles use compressed H2, not LH2 and the fuel tanks aren't heavy for compressed H2
There are no short haul aircraft that are also used to fly 6 hours.
But Norway thanks you for your expertise
The B52 is still being flown but is not in production. It hasn't been in production since 1962.
It doesn't take gerrymandering to keep Democrats in control of Maryland when voter registration skews 2-1 in favor of the Democrats.
It's actually a surprise that the Republicans hold the edge in voter registration in one of those districts. In every other one it is heavily Democratic.
They have to have fairly equal number of people in each district so it will naturally require carving up the big population centers which are heavily skewed Democrat.
It's not like the Electoral College where voters from rural-centric states get far heavier representation. If you are.a rural voter in Maryland you don't get more representation for your vote.
I read it again, it doesn't say "for the rest of the year". It said they are "at 99.5% for all of 2018" but they aren't. They are at 85% for 2018 and maybe that will improve or maybe it will get worse.
All of 2018 only consists of a bit under 13 days so far. That's all there is to 2018 as of today.
I think you need a new calculator
You can do the approximate math in your head. Down 45 hours is approx 2 days and we are 13 days into Jan. 20% of 13 days is 2.6 days.
If all else fails, lower your standards.
