If it weren't for women like them, Roy Moore would have won against Doug Jones
"Tesla's biggest challenge with improving Autopilot is processing power" Not so sure. Their AP1.0 system from Mobileye is vastly inferior in terms of raw power yet AP2.0 is still not at feature parity
"They get power" I would think that a billionaire of any stripe already has plenty but I guess some are never satisfied. Ok, evil leftist moneygrubbers are doing it for power. And the right-thinking lovers of freedom....from legislation? No interest in power?

It's quite clear what the Kochs, Adelson, Trump,etc get from the rightwing agenda - it all works at helping them keep their money and pass along more of it to their heirs. How many billion$ will repeal the Estate Tax save the top 1%? But what do the leftist billionaries get for their money? How does tightening & enforcing financial regs help Soros? How does paying MORE taxes help the Steyer et al? Do they think that'll get their faces on Mount Rushmore? Or on the $50?

Besides how it would look visually which for some people was big issue, another large problem was the fact that maintenance would have been very costly and difficult, and the cost of energy even though cheaper to produce was announced that everyone would be charged more for energy than what they currently are. These are the key reasons why so many in the area have been against this project.

Fox News, even with Ailes gone, is still just a propaganda & apologist arm of the GOP.
And there's no shortage of rightwing media. Conservative talk radio is an empire unto itself and there must be close to TWENTY high status former elected officials that have their own regular radio programs. The Koch brothers are ridiculously wealthy and were budgeting close to $900 million dollars in the last election and have been very active politically for decades. It's rumored they may spend $400 million in next year's mid-terms. Sheldon Adelson spent over $90 million trying to support Romney in 2012 and donated $25 million to Trump's SuperPAC. When he bought the Las Vegas Review & started throwing his weight around and squelching stories he didn't like - some were about him - many of the top staff quit.
Doc Searls decided to rant about the election, and since he's an editor...
Sounds like you're much more of a snowflake than he ever was. What if the "political turn" had been to the *right*? I hope you didn't switch to Linux Magazine - after all, they let Jon "Maddog" Hall publish his coming-out story in 2012
Also I hope that the leftist astroturfers are as well-funded as the rightwingnutjob shit-disturbers. George Soros can't be expected to pay for everything.
"Conservative Megadonor Robert Mercer Funded Project Veritas" Project Veritas has come under intense scrutiny this week after one of its operatives, pretending to have been victimized by Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, tried to dupe the Washington Post. The scheme was uncovered by the Post on Monday. On Wednesday, BuzzFeed News published the names of two dozen donors to Project Veritas. A spokesperson for the organization responded that inquiries about donors were causing a spike in donations.
James O’Keefe, the organization's founder, came to national prominence for videos he made of employees of ACORN, a liberal organizing group, purportedly discussing illegal activities. He was later sued over the videos and paid out a six-figure settlement
Of that I have little doubt. If you spent as much time reading up on the fakes, hoaxes & underhanded assholery at all levels from the right wing, as you spend posting on Slashdot, you'd have little time for much else. I wasted 5 years on Sodahead - nuff said.

A friend had an Aussie Shepherd who not only knew the names of his toys but also the rooms of the house. But he couldn't distinguish between "kitchen" and "chicken" so when she'd tell him "get out of the kitchen", he interpreted it as "get your chicken" and would bring his rubber chicken squeak toy to her.

If you want the world to be less divisive, then acting, eating & speaking Chinese would be the way to go.
"They are connected to the grid, but they're not drawing the current from there" To deliver 400 miles of range to a Semi in 30 min would need roughly 1.6 MW of power. That's for ONE truck - the power draw of ~800 homes.
How are they delivering that kind of power if they're not drawing from the grid?
