And some just define “research” as clicking the next video in the recommendation list, a list carefully crafted by an algorithm to keep people engaged by feeding more of the same.

Hydrogen cars and trains.

Musk often operated using the “better forgiveness than permission” policy

Big difference between having a conversation and having a media company distributing propaganda.

Except Tesla’s uncle had brain damage and doesn’t really learn from the situation so will go it again, and had clones of him driving thousands of other cars.

I need some alcohol at least once per month.

Turns out there are after market mods for that. Spoiler, other front, flame paint job

That thing’s front and back are exactly the same. It saves on fabrication costs to use the same part but it gives a weird look.

Reddit isn’t as fun as Reddit used to be either

Citroën Ami is available. Closer to $8000 and technically a quadricycle. All bare minimum to make it street legal.

Let’s see some numbers that ads work.

Companies have tested this. A DIY chain ran an ad and people complained it was annoying, so they stopped running it. Their sales started to decline. Started running the ad again and sales went up.

Probably you’re not the target audience and just collateral damage in the ad war, but for the population in general they work.

He didn’t plan on spending 44B. The plan was to manipulatie stock price with pretending to buy, but Twitter management saw that one coming and let him sign a document for 44B that the rich idiot didn’t read.

“Do you have any idea how much it costs to adapt? Bootstraps! Freedom! Personal responsibility!”

We have curse stacking so it forms one big word. Godverdommemiljaardenondju. It’s an ugly mix of dialect, French and Dutch, meaning something like “curse you a billion times in the name of God”. And if it’s only a mild inconvenience we only use a small part, like “dju” or “miljaar.”

“Your work was perfect and thanks to your continued efforts going above and beyond we achieved record profits. Unfortunately the budget doesn’t allow any raise this year.”

The most likely answer to get in 2 years.
