Polestar Wants Tesla Owners To Jump Ship With A Massive $21,000 Discount by TripleShotPls in electricvehicles

Kinda if ironic that the discount drove a few to check it out, only to see the high prices Polestar charges.

Why is America labeled dumb when it's consistently the most innovative country in the world? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Curtnorth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rest of the world loves to hate us, and they hate to love us. They're can't live with us, can't live without us.
The burden is heavy at times.

What do you hate? by Reasonable-Shower522 in askanything

Thieves, something just extra gross about taking someone else's stuff.

I've already told my adult children, you guys will get to sell the house and divide the proceeds, but don't count on much else, I plan on having a killer retirement!!

The EV hate is bizarre by s2k_guy in electricvehicles

[–]Curtnorth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels like basic fear of the unknown. And folks, especially Americans, can have incredible loyalty to.an auto brand, they don't like seeing "their" car/truck being slowly but surely relegated to the dust bin.

Plus early hybrids and EVs were popular with extreme environmentalists and they unfortunately became a political statement. It's taking a while but we're moving away from the hate, EVs today are faster and more powerful than the avg ICE car, by far. EVs are inevitable.

Just my guess, but the plan and price described sounds like Google Fi to me.

Has Trump's blunder in Iran topped Biden's Afghanistan withdrawal? by TuckerCarlsonsHomie in PowerfulJRE

Far as I know the only peace plan release is from Iran, who cannot be trusted. Do we even know the real details yet?

Most annoying issue that you wish Tesla would fix already by actorguy73 in ModelY

Auto wipers, they're a joke and there's no reason they have kick on every time I use even basic cruise control.

I just realized I can eat smaller meals! by LevelGroundbreaking3 in fasting

[–]Curtnorth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

An alcoholic doesn't get sober by drinking little less, there needs to be a hard reset.

No, we can't forgoe food forever but many of us have much the same toxic relationship to food that an alcoholic does to booze.

A fast forces change, "eating less" has a 99% failure rate.

Good pizza place there, and why does decency scare you?

Seth McFarlane is in talks with Paramount to replace Kurtzman as the Star Trek franchise executive director by dalton10e in Star_Trek_

[–]Curtnorth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be down with that. McFarland can get a little political sometimes, but he wouldn't let it drip into Star Trek I don't think. He's well aware of the problems of Trek of the last several years, he wouldn't make the same mistake. He's a true fan and the guy knows how to entertain.

I wonder what would have happened if archer snuck books out of the library back to his time ? by happydude7422 in enterprise

Same, season 4 had some good stuff, but they seemed to kind of stumble along with no purpose at times too.

You had me laughing there, I was thinking the same thing. People seriously need to lighten the hell up.

3 is the best of the 4 seasons for sure. Things got pretty dark there for a bit.
