The problem was that the car was telling him that he had plenty of miles to go when he parked it for the night. I would expect the car to give me a reasonable approxiamation of the range I have left, which is what the car says it's doing, instead of some BS PR number, even if I didn't charge it up 100% or decided to drive through the city.
So reviews should verify theoretical device usage instead of real device usage? Why doesn't Elon Musk write his own reviews then? Oh wait, he's trying to do that now.
The article accurately states the route he took and what he did when charging. He didn't charge the car to full capacity, but he did charge it until it showed that it was well within the range he wanted to go.
Elon Musk was trying to say that he never mentioned driving in Manhattan, but he did state that fact. He took the car on a detour through Manhattan to Connecticut, and when he parked it, it still said he had plenty of miles to get back to the charging station. When he got up in the morning, 2/3's of those miles dissappeared from the car overnight.
Yeah, I read this and was flummoxxed because bribing a corporation is not illegal. If a supplier wants to sweeten the pot by sending a gift to their customers, there's absolutely nothing illegal about that. It's called good business.
Bribing an employee to award a disadvantageous contract to a supplier isn't illegal, either, but it'll get you shitcanned.
My XBox 360 is almost that old and the only upgrades I've done is new batteries for the controller periodically. And it cost me 300, not the 3000 that a high end "beefy" PC would have.
The man who set up the station has not been found, but he faces felony charges and fines of at least $10,000 if he is caught.
Why not: The man or woman who set up the station has not been found, but they faces felony charges and fines of at least $10,000 if they are caught. Or: The person who set up the station has not been found, but faces felony charges and fines of at least $10,000 if caught. Or: The being or person (assumed human) who set up the station has not been found, but faces felony charges and fines of at least $10,000 if caught.
... he shouldn't take business advice from Slashdot. It's filled with ankle-biters and mavens who are sure they've got all the answers despite not having ever been close to being in a similar predicament.
They do have an "external monitor" for IV pumps. It's called a nurse. There's still a drop flowmeter inline up by the bag of IV fluid. Nurses can check this to see what the actual flow is into the patient, when an IV pump is being used. I don't think putting more than one pump on an IV line would work. The IV pumps are very sensitive to blockages and will stop and alarm if the flow is impeded.

Not what I'd expect from a luxury automobile.
Yeah, you can still date rape on Craig's List.
And I've got diarrhea and a strong desire to leave a double-decker in every toilet in your house.
That's an upper-decker, not a double-decker, you jerk.
Scrabble: The Collectible Tile Game!
You bring your own tiles and devise a set that gives you optimal word options. And the loser is banished from the land of Dominaria.

Why not RTFA?
I get disappointed that the jokes on TV shows aren't even funnier too.
A fake quote should be enough to get you some easy mod up points.
So IOS is a UI fail?

These hypothetical situations are irrelevent.
The purpose of leaving a fence out of your yard is not to facilitate escape from the Police.
The purpose of pooling tools with your neighbors is not to facilitate murder.
The purpose of using zip car is not to facilitate traffice violations.
The purpose of using TOR is to anonymize data.
Because a person can only love one product, and they have to use that for everything.
She's a bold face liar for liking more than one tablet? Wow, the criteria for denigrating someone has degraded considerably.
Jamming of any sort by a private entity in the US is in violation of FCC rules.
Interesting. I wonder if there'd be enough interest to have someone pay for the priviledge of live-twittering a game?
I'd like to see someone repeat his experiment with a musical Hallmark card.

If Samba is difficult to administer, that's a problem. That makes it inferior to the competition.
