Milli Vanilli performing at a maga festival is just perfect. AFAIK the German guy is dead already, which leaves the French guy to lipsync to someone else’s singing. Or did they find someone else to complete the duo again? Maybe a Scotsman this time?
Google ICCU. Total shitshow.
Other brands might be smart enough to use the friction breaks a bit more (or a lot more, which would not be that smart).
Then again, even the original Prius, the very model of quality and reliability, could get rusty brakes if driven exclusively in very flat areas.
Afaik the newer cars, at least the current model Y, have the blinker stalk again. Even Tesla had to concede that the yoke/joke steering wheel was at the very least not acceptable to too many customers.
The door handles are terrible, too. At least in the front you get a lever to open the door from the inside in case of a power failure (normal opening is with a button). The rear doors only have a small pull wire under a hidden hatch in the door pockets. Its bad enough that they didn’t integrate the electronic and mechanical opening in the front for some reason, but the rear is just utter madness. Someone should make them issue a recall and fix all the crazy doors.
The problem with Kia and Hyundai is that you can’t really trust their warranty anymore. Which is very unfortunate, I really like the Ioniq 5 otherwise.
You are right, no mandatory inspections required from Tesla. Saves a lot of money.
Most TÜV faults were the brakes and the suspension.
The friction brakes are almost never used so they rot and rust. Tesla could easily fix that with a software update that uses them every now and then while breaking. Not sure why they haven’t already, because the problem has existed forever. You can easily avoid the problem by using the friction breaks every few months. Afair the most reliable way is to break when the car is in „N“.
Teslas suspensions have never been really good and they had issues with especially poor quality parts a few years ago. Of course a regular inspection would have found them early, but since those don’t exist, TÜV was the first to fault cars left and right. Newer and replacement parts are supposedly of higher quality. If that is true the TÜV statistics should improve for Tesla over the next years. We shall see.
There are no regular service intervals with Tesla though. Which I honestly prefer. Add to that their notoriously bad quality control and the fact that friction brakes are almost never used, so they rot and rust away, and you have a perfect little shitshow of their own making.
DVDs were released at different times in different countries or regions. Movie studios wanted to make sure they control those releases and you can’t just easily import and sell a bunch of DVDs from a region with an earlier release date.
Of course there were DVD players that let you switch regions infinitely (and eventually just play all regions) or some people who had a second player for another region, but those were, at least initially, outliers. To make the general public wait to buy DVDs from their region it worked.
Although, one could argue, it gave another advantage to piracy. Not only would a downloaded movie not threaten you with the FBI or make you sit through unskippable ads, they would be available as soon as their release in any one region, so you would have to wait (sometimes a lot) less.
I do. Still, it would be a big headache.
Funny. I have a property on booking.com, so I also know the other side. They love to tell the host that they are liable to pay for the alternate accommodation booking gives the guests in case of double bookings. This is actually my second biggest fear as a host, to get a huge hotel bill during peak season if for some reason a double booking slips through. It’s right after people burning the place down.
„The room I booked said sea view and own bathroom. The one I got the key for has a shared bathroom outside and there’s a wall outside the window. Also, it hasn’t been cleaned. There’s nobody here and they don’t answer the phone“ Booking.com human, after arguing with their moronic AI for a while: I am sorry, all I can offer you is a 10% refund.
That’s the point unfortunately.
Maybe, maybe not.
If you like cheap serialized drama, space pew-pew, main characters who are always right even if they are wrong and teary-eyed meaningless speeches with lots of pathos then maybe STD might be the „Star Trek“ for you. And that’s fine. We all have our guilty pleasures.
If you enjoyed the last season of Picard the most, prefer episodic content and can forgive a few lame (and even fewer really bad) episodes then maybe try TNG first.
Unlike an expensive phone, where the initial purchase may have been made with the expectation to still get a couple hundred after a few years, I see no connection whatsoever between your buying second hand fast fashion and the first buyer’s purchase decision. They would have bought it regardless of whether it would become trash or second hand.
In short: no.
That’s a great question!
I am not a bot, but a real human person:
If you’re seeking conversation, I can suggest a few topics. Or, if preferred, you may upload your current emotional state for review.
I would like to see a Venn diagram of that.
You could be in the right to shoot an unlawful attacker. Although you will also likely get shot yourself that way.
Lots of companies have it as the one and only option. Worked so well with internet explorer for them, I believe.
Putin party 😂
