If you like I can ask the parakeet outside my window to make a wild guess as well, if you want another valuable data point

Surely it's just yet more cynical attempts to polarise even further and rile up their base?
They don't have a sense of shame or actually care about the people they're using to enact their horrific plans

He's always been a good sort. His genuine anger comes through every time he has to talk about a dog being shot for no reason by cops. He took being internet famous and turned it into fundraising that that helps a lot of dogs and their people and makes his politics clear. More like him, please!

I think you might have mistaken me for someone else, I have made all of two posts on this. Apologies if you feel attacked.

Sure. I mean it took me five seconds to check but whatever works!

Alternatively you could do a quick google image search and discover that those eyebrows and that colour exist in every photo of her. I think you might be getting confused by the extent to which she dyes her hair

I stand corrected!

Honestly mate I'm happy for you to have the last word! Merry Christmas and all that.

I'm happy with that, wasn't expecting to be accused of being gross and gaslighting over a fairly straightforward disagreement over data. Have a nice day.

(ignoring the fact that the Cybertruck literally cannot be sold over here because of its unsafe design)
The only Tesla in this year's NCAP scores for ADAS trails behind the competition. There are no Teslas listed as "best in class" for 2024, the most recent one. Last time was 2022, then 2019.

Mate, you're all over the place. You denied you were talking about the last 18 months or so, mentioned 2017. I pointed out the CR reports for 5-10 year old cars. You come back with the CR reports for cars from 2023, so just a bit beyond that 18 months mark. Can you not see what you're doing here?

I remember playing Doom with a postage stamp sized screen on my old monochrome laptop :D
I don't think it was until the era of the first Xbox that we started seeing the majority of PC games not require the new generation of cards to work well or even start considering 60fps as a fair standard

The 5-10 year old cars - so 2015-2020 - don't fare well in the CR reports do they. And the TUV ones are 2-3 years old. So it'd have to be a very recent change.
I'm sure your anecdotes rightly impact how you view these cars but the data (rather than predictions) suggests Telsas are very flawed.

You absolutely could play it with the software renderer, and glquake didn't exist at launch. Software rendering did not scale well with resolution but GL was not good either for quite some time. The competitive scene played almost exclusively with the software renderer for several years.

Regardless - these are cars with some pretty major issues alongside the minor ones and the suggestion that they've dramatically improved in the last 18 months or so cannot be made until enough time has passed to prove they are indeed reliable. Until then: not fantastic cars, not even good.

Do you have anything to backup the claim that the TUV report methodology is specifically wrong for Teslas vs other EVs, or brake discs rusting & corroding isn't a functional problem?
The lighting and suspension issues can't be easily handwaved away. Plus build quality has never been a strong point.
