Have we forgotten about the LA riots?

I would not stop for protestors either.

The comment I replied to wasn’t “engaging in reasonable discourse” either. You’re right that it was inappropriate to call the commenter a piss baby, but I didn’t have any expectation of a conversation either.

“Let’s just fine the guy about a million dollars and make him unable to get to work for the next ten years because he hit the tree with his side mirror”

You’re fucking unhinged if you think that’s even remotely a reasonable take. I get this community is about decreasing our reliance on cars but that doesn’t give you a pass to be an insufferable piss baby when you get upset about something.

That driver isn’t single-handedly responsible for our car dependent society, so stop acting like they are and direct your frustrations somewhere more healthy.

You can replace the battery in an iphone with a hair dryer and basic hand tools. It only takes like 15 minutes. I’m not sure what this legislation is going to result in besides making phones less waterproof and dust proof.

Unless they’ve gotten into the sex toy business, I think you might mean Apple silicon ;)

Exactly what my homepage looks like when I’m not signed into Youtube. Seriously, is this what the average person is watching?

The thing gets me about the “$XX,000” battery replacement figure is that people are talking about the dealer quote for a battery replacement. If your vehicle is in warranty (and Tesla has an 8 year battery warranty), then the dealer replaces the battery for free. If it’s not under warranty anymore, there’s no reason to get your battery replaced at the dealer. Third party shops will do it for a fraction of the cost.
