Uber was always supposed to use humans only as a temporary measure until they could get self driving vehicles.

He should read the story that's actually about earth then

There is no such thing as a true vintage restoration. You cannot restore the chemicals in the plastic, by definition you are not changing it back to how it was. But if you are uncasing it, painting the case well, and allowing the paint to cure fully before reassembling it, then you will wind up with a result that cannot reasonably be distinguished from the real thing — especially since there are no pristine examples of the real thing any more since they are all age-affected.

If someone made new reproduction cases, you could do a "true" restoration with them. Everything else is just one band-aid or another. And even a reproduction case would have to be modified from the original materials in order to not just have the same problem again.

Don't get what, that there are holders which can be mounted in your line of sight?

That's why I need two hands to drive. My hand is not usually on the stick, except when I'm in traffic. On the highway the wheel moves around enough that it's wise to use both hands to manage it, thanks to the amazing quality of American roads. This is not difficult, especially when using both hands, but it does require constant corrections. So either I need both hands so I can have one on the wheel and one on the stick, or I need both hands so I can have them both on the wheel, in order to drive safely.

That's great for media, but garbage for any other kind of input. Is it really not a touch screen, or does it just have an additional control method? If it's the latter that's great, if it's the former you're celebrating poor usability.

Cap and trade is first and foremost a rubberstamp, second a way for politicians to get kickbacks, and third a mechanism for allowing those who pollute less than they can do for free to profit from those who pollute more than they can do for free. Both the first and third things enable the second.

Cap and tax would reduce carbon emissions. Cap and trade does not.

You don't seem to be reading serious articles if your conclusion is that we should do something worthless.

There were no electable options which didn't support the corporatocracy. We all voted for it, and though some indeed didn't realize it, many did. You can see some of them gloating over their own impending demise here on a regular basis.

Yeah, they will be dominated by dodging the attack robots there to eliminate people without jobs.

Why, are you an equity lord?

That can happen when you ignore all of prior human history.

I have been for years, not sure it was ten.

My posting history will reveal multiple occasions on which I have called for NCM batteries to be banned.

Anyway I'm completely in favor of Nazi dickface Felon Husk being separated from Tesla and it succeeding, but there is absolutely zero reason why it is inconsistent to oppose that while they provide the bulk of his paper value that he borrows against. The dangers of fascism are more immediate and therefore of even greater concern than those of AGW, especially given that fascists are not known for their positive environmental action. The net impact of supporting a ketamine-fueled eugenicist merely because you are pro-EV is obviously negative, especially since Tesla is far from the only game in town today.

The cybertruck becomes a fire as it falls apart.

I guess that helps thicken the Martian atmosphere...

"It's a sad to see where those folks' priorities really lie. The way they turned on Musk was a clear demonstration that partisanship is their priority; environmentalism was just a pretense."

While Tesla is still using mostly NCM batteries in US vehicles when they could all use LFP? No it fucking well was not.

You think China or Russia can't put a satellite in a high orbit? You're weird.

You don't understand how first past the post voting systems work and you think I'm the dumb one?

Yes but the problem there is NOT switching from sugar to HFCS, it's having so much sugar in the first place.

The HFCS problem is switching from vegetable oil to it! A lot of processed foods use it with a bunch of citric acid to kill the sweetness. The combination maximizes shelf life. The end result texture is very similar to using veg oil, but oil goes rancid.
