Thank you for being a voice of reason. Just wanted to say I appreciate it!

we had a chevy bolt, lived in condo, parked in a parking garage in Cow Hollow in SF. Had no problems charging either at work, or at a charging station down by the marina. We drove it to Yosemite a couple times, drove to Paso, and Napa all for fun. Got rid of it because we didn't need a car while working from home.

Long story short, it was useful and viable even though we didn't have charging.

Thank you for your comment of sanity. I have a ‘smart tv’, never connected it to wifi. Turns on within seconds. No bloat.

Stores have thought of this, and know the effects already. Apparently putting products behind glass causes almost a 50% drop in sales( because people don’t want to bother), so stores would prefer not to put anything behind glass or a counter, but they do because the alternative is 100% loss from theft.

I read the article. It tries to give a balanced view of both the good and the bad, including details, but if your read the article closely, it doesn't say exactly what the union is trying to do.

Also read the 2 links provided above, because I was interested. On the second page 'what will the union do" the answer is 'its up to us', so I tend to agree, it's not clear what they are asking for yet.

dude. the 70s were like 50 years ago. you think tech has not evolved since then?

if its not in warranty, why would small claims court matter?

what is the point of this comment?

you realize in this context you are the employee as well.

Ive seen this 'people need to live near work' argument, but I don't know what its based on. If a teacher has to commute an hour, they will commute an hour. If a bartender has to commute, they will commute. Wouldn't it be better to make transportation cheaper and easier to use? That way people could live where they can afford, and still work in another place. I don't understand why people have to subsidize someone living close to their job.

I like that Elon is asking for specific outcomes, even if the wording isnt exactly accurate. I imagine he runs his companies the in similar ways. You can see how defensive the UN is getting when asked for detailed outcome based plans, vs lofty statements with vague outcomes like ‘prevent geopolitical instability’.

the people who are buying tesla's don't want a 9 year old car. You took some long farfetched comparison about 'feature parity, (oh except for these 2 big things) and then created a false argument. sometimes I wonder what people are thinking.

Why? its 2021. Everything is connected. You're on a hacker website.
