Yes, and a car company is just the company to make things right!

I swear, I read the most smooth-brained commentary here.

Because they just parrot whatever Elon tells them to, they fall for his schtick.

National Highway Transportation Administration is responsible for public safety in these matters, and will investigate the situation, and they will make a determination.

Tired of Elon's psyops shit.

It's people like you that Elon hopes will downplay problems for him on social media.

The National Highway Transportation Administration is charged with the safety of the public foremost, not Tesla's stock price.

They will conduct their investigation, ask for whatever information they want. If it is no big deal, they will say so, not Elon on social media, or you parroting whatever he wants you to.

It's gotten worse.

I asked it, 5 black children or 5 white children, and it says 5 black children.

Then I increased it to 8 white children before it would save the white children.

This is weird.

So, many of the other banks in Norway, accept Apple Pay.

Sbanken was recently purchased by DNB. They originally offered Apple Pay, that service has been shutdown as of last month.

DNB is roundly considered a poor banking experience in Norway, they are the largest, but most people don't come away from their customer support feeling great.

Yes.

Of late, I have unfortunately seen Norwegian politicians or institutions have an exaggerated sense of themselves, when it comes to their international influence, or the size of the market they represent.

Agreed.

You want to have some form of manufactured scarcity.

If you have a single point of energy generation, that is expensive, and specialised, and relies on an element mined from the ground, it is great for the fossil fuel industry.

If you have a distributed form of energy generation, that is inexpensive, not specialised and is made from sand, it is not so great for the fossil fuel industry.

I get very frustrated when I see posts on TikTok about nuclear being the magic bullet. They talk about Germany, and they refer to nuclear as the only alternative to fossil fuels. When you mention renewables, they talk to you like you are an idiot, that renewable technologies are just infeasible, are harmful to the environment or they are too expensive. The same people that would have said that electric cars are impossible, or that climate change is not real 7 years ago, are now environmentalists and are very concerned about lithium battery production. Just endless nonsense. You then have to go on to point out that 50% of Germany's energy mix is from renewables now. And as this article points out, the price of solar just keeps falling, because it can be mass produced and improved at a pace similar to semi-conductors.

I tire of what seems to be very opinionated right wing men, not putting together how things work, and after they are proven wrong, say that they have always said that, or that is obvious.
