But he can save $2 in costs on your $30,000 car

Hamas were elected in January 2006 and have refused new elections since.

Does he not fit?

You don’t have to remove candy crush etc from your start menu? Lucky you. I certainly did.

You can’t. Israel don’t have the moral high ground here.

The slaughter of one group provides no moral justification for murdering another.

You’re reading a lot into what I said that isn’t there.

Israel isn’t justified. Hamas isn’t justified. They’re both murderous bastards and civilians, both Israeli and Palestinian, are being killed.

NOT murder civilians, including children and babies?

There’s no justification for murdering innocents, no matter who does it.

The real slaughter started after Hamas murdered a thousand civilians.

How can you justify killing innocents to achieve a political goal?

Who’s says it wasn’t provoked?

Intentionally murdering civilians is still terrorism. It’s wrong when Israel does it, it’s wrong when Hamas does it.

Hamas is the only group meaningfully defending Palestine from the attempted genocide. Not at all like the KKK. They would only be like the KKK if they were doing it unprovoked. Palestine has a right to defend itself against genocide, and the only way that seems to work in Israel’s eyes is killing Israelis. Peace is not a language that genocidal states understand.

Hamas directly provoked the current outbreak in violence by murdering over 1,400 Israelis. Mostly civilians, and many of them elderly and children. They took 120 hostages.

Hamas aren't freedom fighters - they're terrorists.

Hamas represent Palestinians like the KKK represent people from Tennessee. Some people support them, most don’t.

It’s possible to support Palestinians while denouncing Hamas as murdering terrorist wankers.

It’s equally possible to support Israelis and Jews while finding the actions of the Israeli government reprehensible.

Well that’s gross. And probably quite right too.

I assume anyone who can get work elsewhere has, and they’re left with dead wood.

They absolutely should respond to acts of violent terrorism, and I didn't suggest they don't. However it's far from one sided.

The Gaza strip is an open air prison for over 2 million people, who can't even access, or travel for proper healthcare, where food and water are insecure or poorly available. Where you can't leave by either land or sea. Where even if you were one of the >1 million young people living there who managed to leave you'd be poor and uneducated.

But maybe you're not in Gaza. Maybe you're one of the Palestinians who live in the west bank can can barely travel without huge impediments, or may see your house demolished to make way for Israeli settlers, in what amounts to an apartheid system, widely condemned internationally by human rights organisations.

Hamas are absolutely disgusting, and the terrorist attack on Israel should be rightly condemned. But if you think Israel are the good guys here, and this is a black and white, good and evil situation you're not paying attention.

Ignoring Jewish settlers in the West Bank, Gaza quite literally being a ghetto full of people forced off their land, the military checkpoints, the complete imbalance of deaths and suffering between the two sides.

As reprehensible as the violence is on both sides, Israel/Palestine is an apartheid state and Palestinians suffer far more than just from the effects of violence.

totally with you on the charging (and don’t have one myself) but as for the drivetrain, is one really that much more efficient than another? There’s not a lot of energy lost to heat, noise, and whatever else that ICEs have. Most of it is in (for example) the body’s aerodynamics, no? And as far as how long they last, most of them are about 10 years old, tops? Hard to judge that one just yet (yeah, the Leafs suck already but they don’t have a battery management system)

There are a lot of variables that affect it, but Tesla do extremely well here with things like the octovalve and heat scavenging for their AC system. Combine this with the relatively high fast charging speed means range gets added back quickly. About the only company that's competitive in terms of efficiency and charging speed is Hyundai/Kia at the moment.

You can compare similar cars here. For example:

Sedans: Tesla Model 3 RWD: 137 Wh/km Hyundai Ioniq 6: 148 Wh/km Polestar 2 SR: 172 Wh/km VW ID.3: 166 Wh/km BMW i4: 156 Wh/km

SUV: Telsa Model Y RWD: 164 Wh/km Hyundai Ioniq 5: 183 Wh/km VW ID.4: 177 Wh/km BMW iX3: 192 Wh/km BYD Atto3: 183 Wh/km

Weird take.

Even the lowest end MacBook Air is 2560x1600. The touch bar got dropped years ago when they transitioned away from Intel. Pricing for the specs you listed starts at $999.

There plenty to criticise. No need to make shit up.

Even the lowest end MacBook Air is 2560x1600.

I dislike Elon as much as the next guy, but this just isn’t true.

The charging infrastructure for Teslas is miles above the rest for much of the world. The electric drive trains are some of the most efficient and long lasting. And outside of America their pricing is quite competitive.

Nope. It just means there are bots left chatting amongst themselves ;)
