Sigh. PFP: my racing helmet, which is British racing green with a safety orange arrow design, inspired by the Porsche 908/3 gulf cars

Yes, because Americans who buy new cars don’t want small cars. People seem really reluctant to accept this long-standing fact.

All it takes is to have one incident in 10,000 "and you have an issue" with your robotaxi service, Musk says, in what is almost certainly the lowest that anyone in driving automation technology has ever set the safety bar

Musk says there's a limit to AI's ability to improve human productivity, but there's no limit to its ability to improve productivity when it is embodied... "that's why I call it the infinite money glitch"

the SEC should have a law that just says any CEO who uses the term "infinite money glitch" just has to go straight to prison, right away

The Trail Worker’s Essential Reading List β€” Trail Crew Stories Tent time in the backcountry means lots of time for reading, and backcountry trail workers are voracious readers. What books are on their reading lists?

I’d love to see your proposal for where to add a HSR line to Dulles from Union Station. Double-stacked on top of the silver line? Tunnels underneath?

This is going to be the most interesting DC public meeting of the decade! I think I'm going to have to attend with a 5-gallon bucket of popcorn.

Max ReisbΓΆck - the father of the BMW 3 Series Touring | Autocar The E30 3 Series wasn’t roomy enough for BMW employee Max ReisbΓΆck, so he made his own estate version, inadvertently creating a hit for the firm

Yes, it's mentioned in this story. The original home-made car had a high boot lip, take straight from the saloon I guess. The one change BMW made for mass production was a dropped sill between the lights wide enough to slide in a case of beer. www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/bus...

Hollywood pumps the brakes on Toyota The entertainment industry's leading sustainability group says privately it will cut ties with its top sponsor, after critics accuse Toyota of funding climate denial.

Toyota funds more climate deniers in Congress than any other car company, and just 1.2% of its U.S. sales were EVs last year. Under pressure from @janefonda.com, Hollywood's leading environmental group is cutting ties with the Japanese automaker: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/hollywood-...

So clearly someone has all these files right? Judiciary committee? Oversight?

Anyway if they're gonna skirt the law and never seat her we don't really have Congress, do we. Maybe someone on one of those committees should say they're gonna dump em anyway if Congress doesn't really exist anymore

The non-Tesla OEM has to have signed an agreement with Tesla to allow its cars access to the Supercharger network. Most have, but iirc Stellantis has not.
