Sadly, a lot of pedestrians are stupid. I’ve watched them walking across a road, phone in hand, straight into an idling parked V6 with a hole in its exhaust, and still be confused.
Pedestrian warning systems are a good idea. But nature will always come up with a better idiot
Check out IKEA office chairs. Their display rooms let you sit in them. They’re a 10th of the price, so even if they only last half as long you’re still in front.
I know. I was quoting Interstellar :)
Fingers crossed the next test will have this view for a full re-entry
It’s an excellent video. The realtime feed made it look like everything was great, fully under control. This shows that it really wasn’t near the end, and it’s loss wasn’t truly “unexpected”
No, it’s necessary!
If you make a system idiot proof, nature will always come up with a better idiot
We live in an age of subway wrappers telling you not to eat them, and microwaves including warnings to not use them to warm up pet dogs and cats. Because nature keeps improving on Communi Idiota
Show us on the doll where the tesla drivers annoyed you?
Instructions unclear, trash can now wedged into my dishwasher and a pipe burst behind it
Sir Terry Pratchett (GNU) wrote a piece of fiction along these lines. In The Light Fantastic:
The reason for this is regrettably all too common. When the first explorers from the warm lands around the Circle Sea travelled into the chilly hinterland they filled in the blank spaces on their maps by grabbing the nearest native, pointing at some distant landmark, speaking very clearly in a loud voice, and writing down whatever the bemused man told them. Thus were immortalised in generations of atlases such geographical oddities as Just A Mountain, I Don’t Know, What? and, of course, Your Finger You Fool.
S E G AAAAAAA
…I’ll be in my bunk.
Do people read this headline and believe that this is a design flaw? That of all Teslas sold and driven anywhere in the entire world since they were first sold, none have ever been in rain?
There was major flooding around where this Tesla was. Idiots obviously drove it in flood water or it got submerged while parked. This is an insurance problem, not a click bait “herrrr derrrr Elon so stupid” problem.
And if they are stupid enough to not have had insurance on a brand new car, this is a “point and laugh at the idiot crying to the press” problem
Same username as someone that sensationally abused everyone at Discuit when they called out them cherry picking single point of view news sources and posting them in inappropriate communities.

There is no limit to how far people will take their copium sometimes
They pass Australian safety ratings. They are rather popular here

YMMV but I put I small cushion behind my lower back on an IKEA Markus and it’s been my favourite chair I’ve ever had
