Karma. I was so disppointed (as a customer) at the trajectory at the time. It could have been so much more and I was willing it on.

I'll take it as a stopgap until we figure out what is the next step. Musk can shove his $8 up his big, fat... fail whale.

Interesting. Think this and a few other people are helping me make the decision to set up on Mastodon. The trend seems to be going that way.

No, New Labour was 1994 when Blair took over the leadership, not just when he became PM. And before that was John Smith. Pro-European and further to the left than the more centrist Blair. Again, please be historically accurate. You're

One thing's for sure. If I was a remaining employee, I'd be on the phone to my network for a new job. I've been in that situation. You get to do 20% of the job of 5-10 other people for the same pay because... suck it up.... o

Elon centre-left? Nope, centre right at best. Or, if he is actually centre-left (neither of us will know), he has (for the last couple of years) been sucking up to the right. The effect is the same. I assumed he was playing each side off ag

Isn't it basically Musk borrowing money in Twitter's name to finance part of the deal? Increases risk and exposure for the company, but not Musk personally.

Perhaps that's the point. It's not worth $44bn. Twitter rinsed Musk on the way out, which I deeply respect considering his behaviour. That will only be some salve for the employees losing their jobs, but hopefully their packages g

>> Even Labour is tame compared to what it was 30 years ago. What? 30 years ago was the 1990's. The era of Blair and Brown. Try and be historically honest, please.

I agree, discussing this is pointless as we've demonstrated. Ascribing defintions to yourself that you think I have, or might, call you, in anticipation, is where we're at. As someone else said. Our current ruling party (or a sect

Absolutely. England has been captured by far-right think-tanks, dressed up in nice suits and dresses. There are pockets of resistence within the ruling party, but that doesn't change the last 10 years of madness. If you are unaware of

So FSD is dead for now. Many of us have been banging on that it's at least a decade away, if that. Given this realisation, why are Tesla still selling this snake oil?
