That's a physical retrofit.. Tesla's the Apple of the EV world with their special snowflake connector. I guess they'll install a second line? Interesting to see how that'll look.

Indeed. Its why I'm not sweating it honestly. I used to sweat it thinking "omg if I buy an ICE what will happen". Cars depreciate in value already. In 10 years when my new car will be 10 years old... It'll still be before the 2035 timeline. I might lose 5k on the total value of the car when selling, maybe, but that's why holding a car for 10 years makes it more or less useful. Who knows, maybe by then Waymo will make me having to have my own car irrelevant.
So who knows. Make purchasing decisions that make sense for the next 5-7 years, as for the way future, who knows.

Not telling you to “reword this shit” by the way. You’re just a messenger.

A rest stop is public land afaik. In every state I've lived in but I've never lived in the north east of the US.

You shouldn't rely on science fiction to be your guide on how AI will evolve in the future. Skynet says it will be evil. In I, Robot it was insane. In Bicentennial man, it became fully human. In Star Wars it was benign and essentially slavish. The robots in Interstellar were essentially assistants who did not act independently. In Transcendence a human mind was "uploaded" creating a strong AI. In Chappy, AI happened by accident, resulting in strong AI formed in a robot and by creating a digital copy of a human mind.
Strong AI doesn't exist... yet.

Preach. It's a combo of Tier IV and shitty dealers that have it where it is, and farmers being a nice emotional image for the movement.

Weak AI is good enough to sorta replace workers, in areas where accuracy is not super important (customer-facing stuff, where people are already used to corporations providing minimal/poor service).
If you train your customers to accept less and less every year, then eventually replacing an underpaid, poorly-trained human with a weak AI is not going to change much except save money. AI is going to end up in places C-levels already didn't care about and were strangling.

And people can use dyed fuel in normal engines. Doesn't mean we don't sell dyed fuel, you put harsh punishments on the infringements. And yes harsh ones, because catching them is uncommon so the ones you do catch have to be hurt enough to make the low odds not worth the risk.

Reply to Lufthansa Passengers Are Stranded Because of a Severe Tech Outage | Airline passengers on 177 flights were impacted when a construction company accidentally cut fiber optic cables, effectively shutting down the airport by Hrmbee
>Lufthansa confirmed the cause of the outage in an email to Gizmodo, saying “During construction work in Frankfurt, fiber optic cables belonging to a telecommunications service provider were damaged.” The company said on its website that all Frankfurt flights were suspended while some flights in and out of Munich were also canceled and recommended that passengers should not travel to the airport. > >Deutsche Telekom spokesman Peter Kespohl told Bloomberg that Telekom had repaired two cables thus far and is working to repair the others but did not specify how long the process would take. > >Lufthansa said in its email that it “expects the situation to ease further over the next few hours” and expects its flight operations to largely resume and be back on schedule on Thursday. The company added that passengers who booked “domestic flights can switch to Deutsche Bahn until Sunday.”
It's amazing that in 2023 a major airline at a major international airport doesn't have redundant service to keep things running in case of an outage. Given the IT challenges observed of late by several airlines though, perhaps this is more of an industry wide issue, and one that requires a shift in attitude by the industry as a whole.

Yeah to be honest we don't even know if they'll be lithium. Lots of companies and researchers exploring new chemistries. I mean look how fast the cheaper and aafer lithium iron phosphate batteries took hold of the EV batteries, feels like yesterday they entered the market.

Yup. His flailing around with engineers at Twitter looked like a Dilbert cartoon with the pointy-haired boss trying to talk about code.
AI seems like magic until you look under the hood. There's an enormous amount of human intelligence and judgment that goes into tweaking AIs to perform well. My first neural network was a class project in grad school to find a nose on a human face. When I got done and had it working, I was happy and also disappointed to learn how they actually worked. It drove home for me the differences between weak and strong AI.

Ya know technology is capital intensive. I don't know why so many here are so anti Elon. Or anti billionaires.

Yea let's have all ICE drivers lay for gas station maintenance too. Teslas aren't cool anymore bro it's not like apple. Tesla owners aren't elite or special, it's a middle class car.

Hyundai and Kia charge more rapidly if you have the right charging stations in your area. 18 minutes from dead to 80%

That would be a concern if teslas were the nicest and most premier EVs but they are mid to bottom tier.

This would all be a simple and straightforward if as a country we didn’t let corporations run rampant, lobby, and profiteer
