He who cares about privacy even a little bit and uses Google DNS servers doesn't really care about privacy.

They'll keep a reduced staff dedicated to truly essential police work, such as rounding up the terrorists who commit acts of vandalism against Tesla dealerships.

That's why I said it's an old Finnish joke.

I lived in Finland long enough to know that the Finns are not really happy. Or unhappy. Or excited. Or anything at all. If they are, they hide it really really well. The only true sentiment I ever felt in the Finns is quiet pride of their country.

Here's an old Finnish joke:

Why are people in Finland the happiest people on Earth?
Because all the sad people have killed themselves.

I hate the hospital for the same reason. Nothing like the mixed smells of chlorhexidine and death in a cancer ward.

But as a human, I can at least rationalize being there on an intellectual level

Their Save Our Heritage nonprofit is up against the Heritage Foundation. They're almost guaranteed to lose out.

Because when gangsters are deported without due process, pretty soon people who did nothing wrong will be deported without due process.

In case you didn't know, Charlamagne tha God is a MAGA mouthpiece.

Hint: there are Tesla dealerships in many other countries, if you want ideas for other places to visit during your holidays abroad.

Aah, the magic T word that lets the US powers that be arrest and detain anybody without due process...

I've been wondering for 23 years when the US would finally turn terror charges inward against its own citizenry to quell dissent. Well, that time has come.

Gee, I wonder if they know something we don't...

I reckon the White House should contract The Boring Company to drill a tunnel between the Oval Office and the toilet in Mar-a-Lago.

And possibly install a Neuralink chip in cheeto's brain too.

I mean since the White House is now a Musk showroom, why not go all the way...

Hitler famously dismantled the German democracy in 53 days. We're now 54 days into Trump's presidency, and while he's very close to achieving the same thing with the US republic, he hasn't quite done it yet.

Hitler 1, Trump 0.

 

I don't own a Tesla and never will for obvious reasons, but I'm curious: are all the parts on a Tesla car Tesla-specific?

Or said another way: can you buy a Ford alternator, Volkswagen door latch mechanisms, Toyota shock absorbers, or Brembo brake pads to service a Tesla car?

Most car brands made by the same large manufacturer share a lot of parts, so you're never really stuck even if one of the brands disappears. And small independent car makers usually shop around for OEM parts from other manufacturers to keep costs low. But Tesla is neither of those things, so I'm wondering if they decided to make all their parts custom so you have to buy spares from them.

It doesn't affect me, but if I owned a pre-Sieg-Heil Tesla, seeing as though people boycott the brand around the world, I'd be worried to be left SOL if the company tanks or pulls out of my country. Particularly since they don't seem to be exactly falling over themselves to design for repairability.

They'd better make out like bandits now, because when this whole nonsense is over, they'll never find employment anywhere else.
