The Luddites didn't want to ban technology.

They wanted The People to share in the benefits, not just the capitalists (who have all the investment capital.)

You are still falling for and propagating anti-Luddite PR over a century old.

You will eat nothing and like it.

Or, you know, starve.

Now do the calculations with a non-swasticar.

Tesla is worst at service of all US automakers, who wants to be chained to them?

Maybe I should have said B roll. Either way, the image he presents in that video is not a balanced one. Being honest about the issues really helps your argument, I find.

High density housing is a red flag for a lot of people. It can work in some countries, but for example in the UK... Well, there aren't many examples of it not being terrible. If your plan relies on it, it's not going to gain much traction I think.

We want the same thing, but I think you have to bring people on-board with it. We should be building new, walkable towns and cities, but you have NIMBYs, green belt wankers, developers... I wish I knew what the answer was.

The Soviets had good engines and a good idea to combine many of them. One that SpaceX has now adopted. They just didn't have the political will or money to get it working.

Anyway, Trump seems keen to get there before China.

EVs add nothing to long distance travel in Europe due to rules about maximum time behind the wheel without a break, but even in the US you are looking at an additional hour per 10+ hours of driving at most.

Maybe that's the issue. Contractors instead of employee drivers.

What would you use as a lander?

That's why they put MBA's in charge of these things. For them "reliability" means that the revenue keeps rolling in. A minor blip like this costs them a mere press release, and is unlikely to dissuade anyone from buying one or renewing their subscription.

Driving a cab over is not hard. We got a diesel pusher bus where you're way further out in front of the front axle than that, and the only adjustment really is turning a little later. You get reasonably used to it in short order. If you don't have to deal with an 8' vehicle in a 10' wide lane (yeah they're meant to be 12' but then there's bridge crossings and such) then I bet it's not even scary.

That's a feature of systemd, but it's also a feature of other systems which predate its adoption, so it's not actually a change for most users.

Thanks for the assist. I really loved how you included Mechahitler's supporting comment, even a literal bot knows better than that meat bot.

The great thing about licking boots is that they will always find a new boot to put in your mouth. Great if you love licking boots, that is.

Cry more, bootlicker.

In Europe these types of van are used for all sorts of things beyond delivery. Because they are enclosed you can build a little workshop in there, or at least have nicely organized tools on shelves and racks. With seats they can be used for crew transport as well.

Basically most of the times an American would have a truck, Europeans have a van.

It's also like the new twitter, in that there's a bunch of censorship. And ironically (one hopes) it's often aimed at people spreading anti-Trump messaging.
