My car has a 3.5 but not bluetooth, my 10 stereo systems, all my other laptops.. We have three bluetooth headphones but why fuss with the battery, two of the three use the alternate 3.5 plug because they're on mp3 players without bluetooth.
If you play sound through bluetooth does the audio quality even come from the phone itself? Or are you depending on some headphone that is now a headphone with a battery and a low power soundcard fit in?
Why does it matter whether people are working harder or not? If a company hires a janitor that does a building a day with a mop and bucket and then they buy that janitor a $20K machine in which he does three buildings a day, certainly they have a right to increase their profits somewhat but there is no rule that says they couldn't give that janitor part of it as a raise just for the good work he has done over the years. After all, if he wasn't doing good work someone else would be running the machine. Instead, companies keep paying him what they're paying him because that's the least they can get away with and the wealth gap widens. In fact this is the only way for the wages of a middle and poor class to rise relative to GDP.
This is why government needs to raise interest rates to bring a damper onto inflation. Except the corporations say it would cut into their growth so their friends in the government oblige them. Either way it comes down to companies not finding enough room in their budgets for the people who work for them.
Ok that's all well and good, but could I please have confirmation that the wealthy of my country will give at least the same percentage that I do instead of taking from it?
For the record, I didn't say there wasn't a gasoline car that was as quiet, I said most gasoline cars were louder. Most people don't drive Lexuses. I'm really surprised this is such an issue for people.
If people are not getting into accidents with Autopilot because it is going slower then it's not really preventing accidents, it is just facilitating a trade off. A human driver can also drive slower if they choose.
I've never really understood the fun of a game where someone can dump in a bunch of money and get just as far as you have, even if you have put hours and hours into it. I don't play video games often, but when I do that is an element of real life I don't want in them.
Ok I googled on "accident statistics for only the easy part of highway driving that Autopilot will work on" and didn't find that break down. The only stats are for highways in general, for much of which Autopilot will turn itself off and make the driver handle manually.
Will you mistake a truck for a bridge? Will your manual car drive under it's own power into another vehicle while you are in a restaurant?
I meant overestimating in terms of ability to use half-baked autonomy, not overestimating in terms of sales. Since you bring up the sales, it is known that a large number of these people will get their money back rather than buy the car. Furthermore, Tesla may not even be able to produce them all so the jury is still out on how smart that move was.
How many families can afford to use a $150K car as their second vehicle? There was recently an article that most families can only afford $10K for their primary vehicle. If I buy a vehicle, then the one I bought before is no longer reliable enough for long trips so I need the new one to do it.

No, they send it to their offshore account so they don't have to pay American taxes on it. This is fairly evident.

Why for heaven's sake aren't you on welfare now??
Allow me to add, that the poor aren't seeing their wealth increase as their productivity increases either. That's really the biggest problem.
They're not gaining wealth as quickly as the rich.... or inflation.
Then go somewhere small, where there are people looking for jobs.

Well, please tell that to the vehicles driving in front of my house.
For the record, I didn't say there wasn't a gasoline car that was as quiet, I said most gasoline cars were louder. Most people don't drive Lexuses. I'm really surprised this is such an issue for people.
We're not talking about idling. We're talking about driving down a road.
But most gasoline cars are louder. Especially in the US.

I'm not sure what you mean. You can't compare Autopilot's safety on sections of road that it won't even be able to be used on.
That might be due to the fact that someone DIED in one of those, and people tend to value human life.
Why would anyone ever sign that? Really, it is none of their business.
Under the conditions that there may be an awesome story for the media of course!
Not hearing an electric car
I think you hit the nail on the head right there. Even digital cameras still made the shutter snap noise when they came out.

Lets just say I can't answer this without divulging too much to the public.

Will it save my life if I swerve into a truck?
