It is sad to see how many people in this thread will assume the absolute worst with respect to Tesla's FSD capabilities and then will accept this Level 3 announcement from Mercedes in the most charitable way possible. It requires littl

Plus it's a U-turn situation on ancient version of FSD Beta from two years ago (see the dotted lines in the display, or the YouTube upload date for that matter) that did not support U-turns. And it's not necessarily clear it wasn&

Tron Legacy is an amazing visual spectacle paired with an enjoyable story. It's a shame that this site uses Vimeo embeds rather than Youtube. On Youtube, you can pause and use the , and . keys to advance and reverse by single frames to

Note that your data includes PHEVs, and is not limited to BEVs. While BYD is growing fast, they are not yet ahead of Tesla in BEV units.

Looking at the Cox Automotive data for Q1 2023 (not just January and February as Jalopnik selected), it's difficult to spin the competition as anything but a bunch of fighting over scraps. Chart here: https://pbs.twimg.com&#

According to Cox Automotive [1], through the entirety of Q1 2023, Tesla's US EV market share is 62.4%. I'm not sure why Jalopnik elected to use data from only January and February, but given their editorial history with respect to

When I lived in the Los Angeles area, I commuted to work three miles—six miles round trip—as a pedestrian. I certainly buy the data shown here, though it feels like it may merely reflect the number of people walking versus the number of dr

You might be right about the USR 9600 bps mode, but for certain their original 14.4k bps mode was proprietary and named "HST." I still fondly remember when I got my Courier HST and witnessed its intense speed boost versus my prior

Fantastic. The Atari ST was such a beautiful machine for its time. It still looks great today, with those diagonal lines and that crisp gray color, among a sea of beige peers.

When GP says "the update could be displayed on-screen," they are referring to the car's user interface, and not a secondary device like a computer or cell phone. Incidentally, when you point out the issue of missing a theoret

A system that doesn't have the capability to make turns at all will not make an error when making a turn. By the same token, walking will avoid the risk of being in a highway accident. So by this logic, walking is superior to driving.

People will pay $20K for sport brakes or $10K for an unusual paint color. Acting like you know better than actual customers of FSD whether the $8K, $10K, $12K, or $15K they spent on the software is reasonable for them is the height of arrog
