Cornhole

Damn, thats a pretty short list of supported models

Aside from battery and the electric motor itself, mechanical parts are easy to come by from other sources than Tesla. Parts related to e.g. suspension, brakes and steering are all easily bought without involving Tesla at all, and can be changed by any mechanic.

Tesla stock is a pyramid scheme.

maybe we can get those on the cheap and install linux on them?

They're pretty much never thrown out when decommissioned, they're mostly sold to refurbishing companies that clean them and sell them to consumers or developing countries. So it should be pretty easy to get your hands on them actually. I recently bought a thinkpad T470 for $200 with decent i5 CPU, 16gb ram and 256gb NVME.

how can they cram 350 people in an aircraft that holds about 200 passengers

Ryan air figured this out apparently

The thumbnail alone is reason to avoid the video entirely.

1.44kWh Is roughly 7-10km of driving, depending on the car and weather. In 12h that's an absolutely useless amount of power for anything other than small e-scooters and short-range e-bikes.

don’t sub to similar communities on multiple instances. Then you’re going to see dupes.

This is the biggest problem with how the fediverse works IMO. By design it fosters fragmented, and to some extent isolated, small communities, which makes it harder to engage with content and find information. Or you have to wade through an abundance of dupes which gets incredibly frustrating really quickly.

IDK about everyone, but personally I love the screen based interface style that car-design is trending towards.

Worst part is it taking forever for it to print the casket around you, and you're just lying there unable to do shit and just watch the casket close around you in ultra slow-mo. Like being buried alive with a tea-spoon for a shovel.

A dash of water on the beans before grinding eliminates the static buildup

The Steve jobs of the automobile industry

The bumpers are full of sensors, all pastic, and repairs are expensive.

This is the same for all semi-modern cars. Plastic bumbers, even without sensors in them, are surprisingly expensive even on cheaper cars. But the good thing about plastic bumbers, is that they are fairly elastic and most often just bounce back into shape after the amount of deformation a slight fender bender can cause. And scratches are only a cosmetic concern since they can't rust.

Also, Tesla removed the ultrasonic sensors from both front and rear bumpers a while back.

Features of whatever external devices you bring to your car, is not a feature of the car.

AFAIK, only Tesla has native video streaming from the interface screen in the car, so most cars still don't have this functionality.

If that person has a networth of...say, roughly 230 billions...that 50mil isn't even a noticeable change.

The "we can do it by end of this year" he's been toting since 2016 wasn't a giveaway?

At least those are illegal (although perhaps not enforced well enough)

It's unfortunately not happy days and rainbows in "competition land" either though. It usually just leads to a race to the bottom in the pursuit of infinite profit growth, forcing them to lower quality in a never ending downwards spiral, leaving the customer with shit on all sides.

If you don't bloat the software it will run the same year 10 as in year 1. The reason electronics get slow, is because developers tend to get lazy when compute resources are abundant.
