    it's probably silly but I have a hard time not viewing Tesla drivers with contempt

        Same. When I get the signal to cross the street near my house and I see a Tesla coming up, I'll just wait for the next one.

      It's fun to browbeat the libs that bought them when they thought mElon was the IFLScience epic bacon reddit man by concern trolling them about melon being a huge chud.

      I was riding with a relative in their tesla. While we’re waiting at a stoplight, another tesla pulled up and they both rolled down their windows talk about their specs

    installs a comically large white glove to constantly slap at your face while your driving to keep you "alert"

      I think it was just an over the air update, based on this line:

      The update was to be sent to certain affected vehicles on Tuesday, with the rest getting it later.

      "Later" is wonderfully specific. We need better language for this stuff though - "recall" makes me think of people bringing their vehicles back to the dealership en masse.

      If a NHTSA recall can be fixed with a software update that's all it means

      I'm sure there's some legal obligation to issue a formal recall somehow

    A pathetic excuse for a society when unproven and unregulated technology can just be added to deadly machines and sold to anyone with money
