I get where they're coming from.

If there's a probe that results in no substantial findings, it would likely still impact sales for some period of time, simply because there was a probe. In that case, Tesla's concern is justified.

If, however, they do find that Tesla is exaggerating their range, then I hope the lawsuit is spectacular and expensive.

My parents have a Tesla (they bought it used), and its range is shite.

Well, not the highest one. This was a state supreme court, fortunately.

You can easily create a firearm with a short length of steel pipe and a nail. I don't know how this will do anything. Plus people can just drive to another state.

Well good thing I finally realized it wasn't enabled and set my environment variables to enable it.

You'd be surprised how inept some people can be. Back when I worked in defense, we heard a story about a guy who, while preparing to exfiltrate sensitive data, named the file "data_to_exfiltrate.zip". What a moron.

I feel like the sets of people who have passports and people who frequently seal stuff from stores have a very minimal overlap. This probably won't do much.

The waves are canceled (i.e. gone) until something goes wrong. You could end up accidentally causing constructive interference, in which case you my double the sound's amplitude.

How long have they been at your company? A lot of younger people hold zero loyalty to their employer (for better or worse), and combining that with the guidance fo change jobs every two years for maximized income, you're more likely to see increased turnover regardless of job satisfaction.

Food for thought: Is it truly capitalism if random companies aren't allowed to freely manufacture spare parts?

This smells more like government-granted monopolies than capitalism.

Oh boy, I can't wait for nothing of any measurable significance to happen as a result of this.

Just did this myself, though my cheap build accidentally ended up closer to 1500 bucks. Whoops.

Thing is, there's a difference between stealing a loaf of bread and looting a Nordstrom and assaulting the guards.
