To clarify the headlibe: early voting this cycle has exceeded early voting last cycle.

Also political considerations. If Boeing fails to bring the astronauts home then there will be likely many many test that need to be passed before they get another crewed mission contract. They are already +$1B in the hole because of past problems. It might be that they could not afford to continue with their space program. A loss for Boeing, a loss for NASA diversity.

Logically just burning up the capsule makes sense but the fall out likely has multi multi billions of dollars in the balance.

Why? Is what they were missing from being a tolerant human a little advertising?

Production out pacing demand is a bad sign. Tesla has burned through all the early adopters (who are generally more forgiving) and they way more competition. They need to go after the early majority population.

Also, Elon is no longer charming. Like it or not it matters. No one can name a CEO of another car company so there less a 1:1 correlation between Elon alienating people and a brand.

And regarding the “hardly disastrous” metric, it only matters versus your competition because is measures relative performance to what was available. Taken on its own is meaningless.

“No shit” we’re the first words in my head too. Will be buying electric in the summer and the list starts with anything-but-Tesla.

Drinking tomato juice (more related to the airplane). WTF! never seen it in vending machines, offered on tap, in fast food joints …

But 9/10 times someone in my hearing range orders a tomato juice to chillax and drink that sweet thick pseudo-ketchup.

I know some will call this anti-democratic or communistic but the board was stacked with friends and family. It really wasn’t in the shareholders best interest even though they voted for it. It’s absurd sum as the judge said.

Americans won’t understand this because our population is measured in metric

I think Tesla is above wild swigs in public perception. You’re likely already in a camp.

True! But I’m not under the illusion that I am in magical whale mist.

Favourite word in the English language: snarge.

If you are whale watching and get the most from a blow hole, know that you are being sneezed on and are covered in millions of bacteria

Get the credit cards at a low commitment hoping the frogs don’t notice the water starting to boil

I’m sure your grandparents are lovely. My thoughts were more with the decision makers from that era. How peace and acid translated into oppressive views of women

I know it’s an unfair comment to make but it’s in response to generic older generation pissing on the next, saying how things were better in their day.

The vast majority of boomers I’ve met have been kind. But there’s an element of the old men on tv victim blaming that got me thinking it’s a pattern from their idealized days when women “knew their place” and the “negro man” wasn’t so complainy

Maybe my shower thought was too harsh sounding.

This seems like a pretty significant achievement

AI has ruined me. Was looking for the subliminal “send nudes” in this picture

To the down voters: the significance is Trumps words quickly become GOP dogma. With the steady drift right of the CEO of the worlds best known electric car maker this sets up a(nother) paradox for the right

Who in their right mind would have gotten on a plane with that guy. It’s the same as standing between him and an open window
