  1. Is it bad that the prominent issue I found with that BBC article was : Poor grammar and incorrect words being used. I expect better from the BBC. This reads like a teenager's Facebook post.
  2. Just to recap on people doubting him and magnificent Elon delivering : Musk repeatedly promised coast-to-coast autonomous drives (from Los Angeles to New York), feature-complete autonomy, and 1 million robotaxis on the road starting as early as 2017–2020. As of 2026, Tesla's system remains at SAE Level 2 driver assistance, with limited and heavily restricted pilot rollouts. Affordable Mass-Market EVs: A $35,000 electric car was teased in 2006 for a 2016 target, and a $25,000 "Model 2" was promised around 2020 before plans were scaled back or shifted toward robotaxis. Mars and Space Colonization: Musk claimed in 2011 that SpaceX would reach Mars within 10 years (or worst-case 15–20 years), and later projected a human landing and colony by 2024–2025, timelines that have repeatedly shifted into the 2030s Pledges to manufacture tens of thousands of humanoid Optimus robots or launch human-trial brain chips on tight multi-year countdowns have regularly missed their windows or relied on heavy tele-operation prototypes. The proposed high-speed Hyperloop transit concept introduced in 2013 was largely abandoned, and the Boring Company delivered only a small 1.7-mile Las Vegas loop rather than the sweeping regional underground networks promised. In 2018, Musk tweeted that he had "funding secured" to take Tesla private at $420 per share, leading to a fraud settlement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for $40 million after financial backing was not actually lined up. Simply put, when Musk says he's going to do something, you can bet your last dollar he'll deliver. Yessir, sure fire bet is Elon!
  3. I suspect if Elon the greatest inventor is quoted as saying 'it isn't exactly safe' you can bet your last dollar it's very, very far from being safe. Fingers crossed Oswaldo Harvey gets the first one then.
  4. Or... Can't swim / doesn't like swimming?
  5. One that can't be used on public roads or in public. What sort of fucking genius inventor invents something that can't be used, rendering it utterly fucking pointless? But you do know that these funny things called fighter jets have already been invented don't you? You know, ones that can already do the things that Elon the great's 'invention' can do? Once again, Elon the fantastic proves he's not actually an innovator, just good at copying. Maybe he should have been Chinese?
  6. Fucking lefties, destroying the economy by giving money away to something, something, something.
  7. Why not measure GDP against the value of bitcoin since 1960? Would that still back your argument?
  8. Who comes up with this shit so you simpletons can lap it up? Measuring GDP against a commodity market is insane. You may as well compare GDP to the price of corn flakes since 1960.
  9. Oswald certainly looks completely out of his depth on this one. Maybe he should stick to memes and black shirts.
  10. To be fair that looks like it would go well with the perfect description of an "English" person who hails from Aberdare.
  11. Presumably we'd all have to get behind the flag of Essex which is believed to be the oldest flag representing the Kingdom of Essex?
  12. Yes. As well as the Welsh and Irish speakers with their deep Celtic roots. Luckily we have a clear definition for being "English" which categorically states that both the Welsh and Irish are "English". I'm not sure Oswaldo has thought this through.
  13. So any family that has roots in England for over 500 years, but that may have come from Norway or Germany, cannot possibly be "English" as they will not share the Anglo Saxon roots. I would suggest you take a look at your own family tree as this may well preclude you. That would be awful wouldn't it?
  14. But you are still unable to answer what makes someone "English".
