    I thought the cars were mediocre at best and overpriced. The more I learned the less i liked them.

    • Primary door function being completely electronic with a warning that using the manual release could damage the car.
    • Proprietary navigation, so traffic data only comes from other Tesla’s.
    • Lack of lidar, which has been the standard for accident avoidance tech since forever.



  • Great tips just want to add a few. Yes use drywall mud, slop it on, not too thick. It will contract. Didn’t try to get it perfect with the spackle knife. Use coarse and fine drywall sandpaper or a sponge. The sponge will help get the corner crisp, if you use paper, wrap it around a square block. Use very light pressure. Give it a day or 2 to dry before sanding. Use a quality printer before painting.

    Some people will say you should make sure all the loose bits are chipped away, in my experience you may end up taking much more down than you want. Try and get anything raised chipped away and some peel stop primer will help to hold it down and prevent future chipping.

    It’s such an easy concept. I can’t figure out if they actually don’t get it because they are so narcissistic and why would anyone appreciate a few million in aid or if they are just playing stupid to posture to their base and be able to do even worse while everyone is distracted.

    I think the later might be more accurate and I’m really curious what else I am missing.






  • I was a Bernie and Hillary voter as well. I also failed to convince a number of other Bernie voters that they had to support Hillary.

    She held too far center for too long and a lot of Bernie voters didn’t trust her or the party. Hell, even when she announced a push for an amendment in her first 30 days I didn’t buy it would happen but I also knew we needed to keep Trump out.

    Really I still didn’t trust the party. I still don’t think we have enough progressives and will still do what we need to keep corporate donors happy above the voting public.

    Money is speech and it has the loudest platform.
