So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

Driving an electric car is generally simpler than a gas one, but Teslas have unique issues: "Twice recently I've had pedestrians do a hitler salute. My wife now refuses to come in the car with me and if we go anywhere we have to take her petrol car. Has anyine else had this and what should I do?"

PORTLAND: Tesla will be exhibiting vehicles at the Oregon International Auto Show, starting today and running through the end of the weekend. People use this event to survey the market for new vehicles ahead of purchasing, so it's an ideal place to interrupt potential new Tesla sales. #TeslaTakedown

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

since I was 17, I've owned 5 FDM printers and 4 resin printers. I've troubleshooted just about every single 3D printing issue you could imagine having. I've had thousands of combined hours of print time, and to this day, 3D printers work more consistently than your parent's inkjet printer.
