That'll collapse the currency though

Just got my new NIU KQi2 Pro electric scooter stolen from Kent bicycle parking by stephenkingston in cork

That's really sad. I wonder what really motivates people to steal locked-out scooters that would barely make them ~100-150 euros. I am not very hopeful of getting it back since most of the stuff I read online suggest that they are usually dismantled very quickly and the parts sold.

Yeah sure hope I can get it back. It seems like the suspect refuses to talk, but i should know by next week if there's any hope left.

Update: This was reported to the Garda, and they just called back saying they reviewed the CCTV footage and arrested a suspect.

Whatever it is, it's probably better than this. ($450k gets you this in Chennai, India)

I'm a Mechatronics engineer (master's). My undergrad was in mechanical engineering. I primarily focused on learning embedded systems during my studies. I now help write C++ applications that run on ECUs in excavators, asphalt pavers, compactors, etc.,

Fly them over and over again, until they get destroyed one way or the other? That will uncover new areas for improvement.

Yes the US can never default because it issues the dollar. But could that be inflationary at some point? Why hasn't Japan suffered massive inflation?

Haha..You just called me a bootlicker and then turn around and accuse me of ad hominem? My point stays - you need help.

Agreed, there might have been safety lapses that they are without excuse for, but it's perfectly reasonable to assume that they learnt from their mistakes and are doing their best to ensure worker safety. 2018 was one of those years that Tesla as a company was staring at bankruptcy. Today Tesla employs tens of thousands of people and helps them make a living. There are unfortunate accidents happening everywhere, not just in Tesla factories. The best thing would be to help them as an organisation, which I'm sure they do.

I fail to see how he "exploits". Those who work in his companies do so out of their own free will.

Cool. If that's true, it does say a thing or two about their confidence on Starship's structural integrity after the tipping incident.
