  1. How are “major league hitters” late on a jag that is around 92 with his FB?
  2. How many times has this happened in the past 10 games. 6 or 7?
  3. Well… these OF moves are paying off in the short term.
  4. Nice English Big Jon.
  5. Fuckin horseshit blue.
  6. I can’t put my finger on why he annoys me so much. I just don’t like him. At all.
  7. Finally watched now that it is on Netflix and all I can say is “sigh.” CW level production values and an indecipherable storyline. We wanted red beans and rice with andouille and we got a can of Van de Kamp pork and beans with Bar S wieners.
  8. I’ll buy $.0008 worth of carbon credits every time I do it.
  9. Oh there’s no lie. That’s a 100% accurate description of the reality and depth of thought present in this thread.
  10. Focus, people. Elon is a shitbag and anything remotely connected with him reeks and consists of said shit. We will brook no disagreement with this fundamental fact of the Surly universe.
  11. Ram has been a separate company since 2010.
  12. You can't just leave a Tesla "running." It will turn itself off after you lock and walk away from the vehicle. You can, however, set the climate control to "Keep Climate On" mode or "Camp" mode which will maintain the set internal temperature until battery is reduced to 20%. The owner's manual specifically states that "Dog" mode is not intended for people. All that "Dog" mode does in addition to keeping the internal temperature is display the current internal temperature and a message that the dog is safe for passers-by. I love "Keep" mode. If I am going to be inside for less than two hours, I will always leave "Keep" mode on and come back to a nice, cool vehicle in the summer and vice versa in the winter.
  13. Considering this has been a feature since 2019, there is a significant data lag on the slew of toddler deaths you predicted. Or you could just be wrong.
  14. Let's be clear about one thing. I have only ever spoke in defense of Tesla and some of its products. I have never once defended or praised Musk himself. The overall point that I was raising about the Consumer Reports article above is that it compares the quality the first 5-10 years of product from a start-up bringing a new technology to market with established technologies made by traditional manufacturers, many with 100+ years of experience in delivering vehicles. Can you compare them? Yes, you can. Can you really draw any meaningful information about the long-term reliability of Tesla's crop of vehicles from the past five years? That's debatable. I can look at 5-10 year old data from Toyota, Ford, and BMW and be relatively confident that the pattern will hold for the next decade. You can't really do the same with the data from 5-10 year-old Teslas. 5-10 year old data for Tesla is from it's earliest days of being the first to market with viable consumer BEVs. It's anomalous data due to the life-cycle stage of Tesla as a manufacturing company and BEVs as a technology.
  15. Sure... at first glance that doesn't look great. Like all things, there is a bit of nuance to consider. The vehicles that fall within the window for this survey were manufactured while Tesla was still finding its footing for producing vehicles at scale. They window in question also saw Tesla implementing several pioneering technologies. So yes, compared to traditional manufacturers and ICE vehicles, they come up wanting in the reliability for older vehicles. But it's not really an apples to apples comparison.
  16. GOD DAMMIT!!!
  17. This is dumbest of all dumb ideas and it's not even worth acknowledging, much less getting worked up about. 0.0% chance it happens for about a million reasons. It's 100% performance art by Abbott. Don't give it oxygen.
  18. I mean... I would love it, but there is no way NBHoF allows it. There's definitely an argument for it, but he played almost 2/3 of his career in Detroit.
  19. Is Arrighetti our ace now?
  20. One of you may think you want to do it, but don't do it.
  21. I'm gonna knife the next motherfucker who suggests trading away starting pitching. Well... at least neg them.
