Liberty arguably turned the commercial aspect of formula 1 around, and FIA is ruining it with morality police bullshit. Nobody's interested in stopping body piercings or clutching pearls over swearing besides Ben.

Woops. It seems like you're so ignorant of charging that you don't know prices can and do vary by location. You've been so wrong that it's almost impressive.

So, you just flat out can't read or what? Again, I mentioned vehicles that can charge at higher rates. So that's three times I've said it, let's see if you pick up on it yet.
I bet your lie about daily use still doesn't equal the number of times I've used Tesla chargers. You probably didn't think you were talking to a former Tesla owner. I wonder what you think those videos of people putting wet rags on NACS handles are talking about. Couldn't be derating, certainly.
So confidently wrong.

Yeah, the instruction set and the implementation in hardware is absurd at this point.

You cannot use these at all without a Tesla account
You absolutely can if you own a Ford or Rivian on Plug and Charge. I don't have a membership, I've used the chargers. Confidently incorrect.
As someone who actually uses these chargers
As someone that's clearly used them longer than you, you don't know what you're talking about.
they can deliver the maximum output for this vehicle
That's why I mentioned vehicles that can charge at a high rate.

Note: NACS stands for North American Charging System.
Curious who's making GM's adapter, though. Hopefully they've contracted a company for their customers specifically so they don't have to wait for Tesla to produce and ship them. Rollouts for Ford and Rivian customers has been foolishly slow.
Anybody looking to buy an adapter for their vehicle, I highly recommend the Lectron adapter over the A2Z unit.

Not sure where you're located, but without a "membership" for Tesla charging, the cost is about double any other company near me. It's insane and a great reminder to only use these chargers in an emergency when you have a vehicle capable of charging at higher speeds. Tesla's chargers derate all the damn time.

what happens next?
More lies about timelines and features, with more social media team arguing anybody not saying it's flawless is a "short". That's my bet based on the past 10 years of nonsense.

Bolstered by Cluster Truck? What? The 18% increase is more than triple the Cluster Truck's delivery numbers, and the article very clearly says that Tesla's deliveries only increased 1.2% after a five month "slump". Someone needs a better editor.

You haven't paid attention long enough. They have talked about a purpose built vehicle multiple times, they've talked about owners operating vehicles in a pool, they've talked about Tesla owning and operating vehicles, none of this is new. They've lied about this for a decade, but for whatever reason people keep believing.
I'm glad you see the con for what it is.

I do realize. I also realize things like weight of the train, cost of the battery packs, the fact those packs will wear and need to be replaced faster than anything else in the system, and much more.

Bankruptcy (chapter 11) doesn't mean the company goes out of business, or that the share price goes to zero. It means they renegotiate debts, after presenting a plan describing how they'll be able to pay those renegotiated debts. If those debts can not be renegotiated, the company can not present a plan that offers paying them off, or the court rejects any part of the plan, then the company's assets may be liquidated to pay any outstanding debts.
Being bought out would likely come before any of this, which again means the stock wouldn't be worthless.

He absolutely was. Early on, there was literally nothing Elon could say or do that would make Fred question Elon's integrity or genius. The change in Elon's relationship with Fred came when Fred finally actually owned a Tesla vehicle and realized it was a piece of shit. He had the audacity to ask Elon questions about quality problems people were reporting and Fred finally believed, on open Twitter, which got Elon to block Fred temporarily at least. What happened next in the community is the most predictable thing ever, as the True Believers turned on Fred and accused him of everything under the sun.
Haul reflects on a year of ownership
Seems like yet another brand new Model Y has stopped in its tracks on the road. No doubt the army will be out in force telling the owner they drove it wrong, or baselessly claiming they hit something, or even just claiming it's fake. Either way, the excuse generator is kicking into overdrive.
I created an account some time ago, I can see the account from lemmy.world/u/drdabbles, and I can successfully reset my password using the "recover password" link on the login page. But when I attempt to log in with either my username (less than 20 chars) or my email address, the button changes to the spinner and absolutely nothing else happens. The browser makes no requests to the API that I can see, the page just sits there forever if I allow it. When loading the login page, FireFox does give an error about the websocket closing, but I'm obviously able to use the site if I use the password reset function. I would expect that if the server is overloaded, as has been suggested by casual users, that the login function would work occasionally at least. Or that the page wouldn't fully load, or that I'd see a request and a timeout. I'd also expect the password reset route to timeout or fail, given it seems to use lemmy-ui to communicate to the lemmy back-end. When I signed up, there was no captcha, I presume resetting my password wouldn't work if my email wasn't "verified" but I don't remember if I received a verification or not. I presume that because I'm able to use the site and comment, the email must be considered verified though. Any thoughts?
