Tesla's warranty also guarantees 70% minimum of original battery life. That is similar to the degradation you'll see in a gas car. My 10 year old Mazda has lost about 12% of its fuel economy from new and it's never had engine

It's not that candy crush and other casual games aren't real games. It's that the modern versions currently in the app stores aren't games. Original versions of candy crush, angry birds, etc. have been removed. What is a

If local familiy restaurants worked like apps and had no virtually no marginal costs to feed another user or serve a new entree, then it would stop being an anti-growth example. Cheesecake Factory+ would scale up and then the market would c

They don't need to monetize every sub. Most subscribers to dragonsfuckingcars probably sub to several other subs that can be monetized. Keeping all the weird niche stuff around keeps users scrolling longer. Just keep them off /r&#

This comparison is verging on hyperbole. I can't recall any soda ad that implied any health claims or encouraged drinking in excess. There's nothing unhealthy about sugar in moderation. What danger that exists is only expressed af

Regional blackouts are kinda common in Texas. The article briefly mentions the AC frequency doing too can damage the grid. This damage can actually lead to months long power outages for large regions.

I wish there was some standard to add short term battery capacity for EVs and PHEVs. An e-scooter battery can get most EVs 5 miles down the road. A standardized battery pack and wiring harness in the trunk could allow roadside assistance to

I just learned that my ICE vehicle can drain the 12v battery overnight if it fails to turn off the accessories circuit. No lights or infotainment etc. were left on. In my case, it was the switch on the park gear flaked out. I imagine a vari

We haven't figured out a great solution yet, but bad actors and the cognitively challenged have been handed a megaphone in the Internet and social media algorithms have given them echo chambers. Speech informs action, so bad speech wil

This hasn't been true in the U.S. for a century when the house reapportionment act was passed. Now the strongest voice the majority has is in the Senate. The body that was designed to give voice to the minority.

"The cars can be updated to make way for emergency vehicles too." It's an interesting problem. Here's a special case where the system can ignore traffic laws and expect other cars to ignore traffic laws too. It should al

The U.S. has nearly triple the automotive fatality rate of other western nations. With the large vehicle preferences common in the U.S. this may be as much of an idictment on consumer taste as the transportation laws. https://en.

The site seems allergic to using the X.com URL. I found a link labelled Go to X.com and it redirected to twitter.com. Even just browsing the English pages, you're about 10x as likely to see the old branding.
