Funny how some people want to be "green" but think there is no downside to being "green". Like that Green New Deal, yea, let's just get rid of all petroleum and coal in the next 10 years. Not thinking they would have to get rid of all their tech toys because most are made of plastic which...

Maybe they will use a slingshot like in the Angry Birds movie :P

Oh this is freaky, I just speculated what someone would do if this happened in a post here about the Volvo EV earlier this week :eek: I promise, I didn't do it.

Oh I hope Elon reads this and takes it as a challenge ;)

Well it was many years ago and I don't think he won or even got into court. Of course, if it had been recent, he probably would have won a big settlement with the crazy courts we have now.

A few years ago near me a guy lost his leg while trying to cut a 660v cable powering a dragline in a surface coal mine. He tried to chop through it with an axe and steal it for the copper(think about an extension cord the size of a firehose running across a field). When it arced it burnt his...

I think a reason it could be happening is people always heard about being able to charge a Tesla for free. Honestly it irked me some to know that if you owned a Tesla you more or less got fuel for free back when I way paying $3 or more per gallon for gasoline. Offer free gasoline for anyone...

First, I don't know how the autonomous vehicle is going to travel 20-40 miles across roads that are barely two lanes wide with deer and potholes along the way and get to my house in 5-10 minutes, that is just impossible. I haven't been stuck in bumper to bumper traffic for more than 10 minutes...

So what you are saying is that I won't be able to own and drive my own car, and that if I need to go to town I need to call an autonomous car and wait for it to drive twenty miles out in the middle of nowhere to pick me up and take me to town. Why would anyone ever want to wait for the...

If it is as dependable as my old V3 that I used over 10 years then I would go for it. My V3 was my favorite phone ever. This would actually possibly get me to finally get a smart phone :P

Never installed Chrome and have given up on all things Google and can't be happier. DuckDuckGo for searches and FF for browser and either Linux or W7 for OS. No Apple either. And have all scripts that contact Google blocked. Things still work just fine it seems. Honestly I wish all websites...

That is why it has to be carefully written to be valid only when the crime is being committed and while the person committing the crime is at the location where the crime is committed. Once they left his property, the rule would no longer be in effect.

He mentioned the police said it wasn't enough of a concern for them to follow up on, I would have asked "If I shoot the next one that tries it, is that ok and you won't follow up on that one either?" I think we need a Constitutional Amendment so it can't be found unconstitutional :) that...

Wasn't that what Al Gore said about New York City 20 years ago? If his measuring stick actually recorded that 8 food sea level rise since then, I will start advertising myself as the next John Holmes :P

I have no problem with paying school taxes as long as it goes to the operation of the school for teaching the kids. Now if all of the school tax money went to pay for non school related items like a car for the mayor to drive, and things like that, then I would be totally against the school...
