  1. Re:Why dealerships get a free ride on New Jersey Auto Dealers Don't Want to Face Tesla · · Score: 4, Insightful

    You're making it more complex than it is.

    You can get parts for anything and still get it fixed. If there is a market. You have no point.

    There are no laws that require dealers to stock 20 years old parts. You have no point.

    Tesla doesn't ban service on their cars. You have no point.

    If many Teslas are sold, there will be a market for parts. You have no point.

    If you buy a Tesla and there are a million of those Teslas sold, you will be able to get service. Even if it's not from Tesla. You have no point.

    Tesla is not paying to fill up all EVs. Tesla only pays to fill up Teslas.

    Sorry. You can't tax a Fundamental Right.

    Might as well try taxing people for reading or voting. Not gonna fly.

  7. Re:Tesla is fighting a war on Tesla Says Garage Fire Not Charger's Fault; Firemen Less Sure · · Score: 1

    Indeed, Tesla is fighting a war. That is when an obvious FUD attack is launched causing the stock to drop, I buy a few shares of TSLA. It's not a lot, but I'm helping screw over the shorters and the ICE/oil cartels.

  8. before and after Newton on How the Lessons of Columbine Saved Lives At Arapahoe High School · · Score: -1

    Before Newton, I owned no semiautomatic rifles. I now own two m1a rifles and nearly 100 20&30rnd mags. Plus many thousands of rounds.

    Gun control is dead.

    Gun free zones kill.

  9. Re:Fire vs. Potential Fire on With Burning Teslas In the News Ford Recalls Almost 140,000 Escapes · · Score: 5, Informative

    You seem to be lacking in the ability to make distinction. So I'll break it down. Real. Simple.

    Ford. Whole car burn for no reason.

    Tesla. Front trunk burn after high speed collision.

    Ford. Bad safety.

    Tesla. Good safety.

  12. Re:Fire vs. Potential Fire on With Burning Teslas In the News Ford Recalls Almost 140,000 Escapes · · Score: 5, Informative

    Ford is retro-actively recalling their cars after a few dozen caught fire spontaneously. Spontaneous combustion has yet to be achieved by a Tesla.

    One would almost think Musk had poured every dime he owned into Tesla and was in a bitter battle against an entrenched and corrupt industry. ... oh wait.

  14. Re: Good Engineering Tesla on Man In Tesla Model S Fire Explains What Happened · · Score: 3, Insightful

    What a know it all, arm chair commenter. Have you seen the overall model S safety and notice no one has any permanent injuries despite some crazy crashes? This is due to the regidity and strength of the skateboard battery.

    You are quite good at using the word fuck, but that's all you know.

  16. This is Good on Fires Sparked By Utah Target Shooters Prompt Evacuations · · Score: 0

    Slashdot attempting to demonize firearms is a good thing. Like the Streisand effect, you just bring more true awareness and gun owners to us.

    There are countless gun rights supporters in the tech community, and we even work in academia. I own multiple semi-automatic, heavy caliber, high capacity rifles and handguns. Some of them are large and very accurate. Others are small and very concealable.

    Like programming languages, each has a purpose.

    What progressives don't know, is that they are too late. Much too late. They can ask their snide questions, but they don't matter any more.

    And if you haven't been paying attention to gun rights the past few years, you need to start doing so. Because the world has changed.

    Hey Anonymous.

    Ideas have killed far more than guns in the 20th century. That is plenty reason for DRM in the eyes of Statists.

    Gun Control is just people control. Go investigate real America, and discover what a non-issue gun ownership is.

  24. running it on Google Rolls Out Official Android 4.0 ICS Update · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I installed it on my Nexus S several hours ago. I prefer the pure Google experience and don't like to mess with other ROMS, and it was quite an easy install.

    ICS is much better than GB. Smoother scrolling, more polished and true multitasking. Music stays running even when paused, and Navigation stays in the background much better... still exploring, but this is everything I wanted from my Nexus S.

  25. Re:Bonus time. on AMD To Lay Off 10% of Global Workforce · · Score: 1

    That is because top CEO positions are quite rare and difficult.

    This is the free market at work, and is a corollary of individual freedom.

    Where you should direct your ire, is at large gov entities: Freddie/Fannie, Fed Res, IRS, DHS, DOD, etc. Those are the leeches destroying our economy.

    Not CEOs.
