Hello moderator, I'm serious. I would like to cancel my membership in this forum. I've looked through all the menus but can't find the way. Please be assured that this isn't a flippant or vindictive decision. Please either do it or tell me how. Thank you.

hello moderator - please delete my account. Thank you.

Of course with the benefit of hindsight, but that wasn't what happened. The good thing was, after I'd escaped from that gang, a group of Malay women followed me. They asked me what happened and I told them about the coffee. Looking down and nodding they said they saw the whole thing and...

Only a few months ago I asked for a cup of coffee in a bus station in Malaysia. I gave the high price listed on the sign but the vender said no the price is double. I paid the double price and, giving the coffee back, told the vender I would not drink her coffee because I hated her racial...

consider a bumper sticker I saw in east LA that said, 'para la raza todo, por el otro nada' A bumper sticker!

Yes, cool, I'm familiar with Monterrey Heights and affluent Asian San Gabriel Valley, close relatives are Asian. I began building the voyaging canoe in South Pasadena then moved the project to Oxnard. But I would say east LA is Boyle Heights, Lincoln Heights, and on down to Southgate, you know...

Do I understand correctly that your position is that white people are all bad people because of certain historical incidents unrelated to me? (Isn't this the definition of racism?) This was what I thought when I began traveling to subsistence cultures. I lived in extreme cognitive dissonance for...

I live in my hometown in the impoverished California central valley and lived in east LA and taught high school in Los Angeles for years. I'm not making anything up, and swearing at me won't change the facts. I use this specific language because when I asked the chief of a pacific island why...

hang on brother, it's killing me too but what are we going to do buy into exxon Mobil spreading anti science lies or maybe Peabody coal? It'll come round, I was going to say something about adding bonds but never mind.

Thank you for interacting with me jrp3, Gt

The polls said trump would lose. More striking is the way the media lie to us daily about tesla. I live in California which has been literally overrun, and my neighbors favor renewable energy but do not favor being overrun by hostile foreigners. People in other countries do not permit being...

illegal immigration and so called reparations, are you kidding? These issues will absolutely lose the election for us if we don't smarten up. And they are trivial. The energy transition to save everything is what matters! The social stuff is all under the umbrella of handouts for the others.

Agreed, however, Americans are not permitted to go to countries like Honduras, Samoa, Philippines except as big money spending tourists. These countries stamp into my passport, 'employment prohibited'. I favor equal, fair treatment. Optimally free migration in both directions, but other...

agreed. So, all you folk please go on over to 'market politics' and attack my post there, while I read about investment here, thank you. gt

This is addressed to my fellow democrats. We are investing in tesla because we know that climate change is the most important thing. It should be child's play to displace fossil fuel proponent, Russian asset, pathological lier trump. And yet this coming election is being thrown away for false...

It might almost look to some like a tip in bullet 2. However this gives me the opportunity to quote our leader, 'the ship has sailed.'

holy *sugar*!

1. I understand your first point but there are subtleties, including supporting the stock price, and part ownership of what I care about. Putting my wallet where my mouth is, adding my name to the list. 2. I handily beat not only inflation but the indexes. Right now, for example, much of my...

Thank you my friend. I deleted my unfounded post.

I'm with Elon Musk. If, god forbid, the price went to zero I'd be there with him buying all the way. The ultimate privilege of having a few dollars to invest is being able to take a stand with the one person trying to fix what's wrong.

I'm here to support tesla, so just bought some more at 235.

EVERY suv is as ugly as a dogs dinner. You should have seen my 65 lotus elan stripped and mod for racing,

Thanks, Deepak's so cool.

Even though I'm like, 'obi wan elan you are our only hope' I fear for tomorrow.

My father was like this. On his death bed he constantly told the doctors, 'I don't think you know what you're talking about'...

most circuits are not conscious, I don't think, because they don't integrate their input into the kind of hierarchy of objects that conscious beings biological or mechanical, not existent, do.

thank you for the input. Some people think even for example a thermostat has a small amount of consciousness. This question strikes to the base of science because consciousness/observation undeniably influences quantum states of matter. Tesla is getting right into it by designing artificially...

OT big time Do you have an opinion regarding consciousness? Do you agree with Tononi's hypothesis that it consists of information integration? If I may ask. Or do you have another idea as to the nature of the hard question? Might Ill-understood consciousness be required for real AI, including...

Absolutely that's a great influence. Also the focus on memes, from em and in the wider culture, may be cathartic. You know because a meme is a cultural construct, widely and uncritically accepted, a tool often used by the communications industry. I think the only answer is if we would all use...

Fact check. I've been a left wing democrat all my life but I'm observing extremely divisive and factually incorrect opinions and misinformation from every liberal I know, as well of course from conservatives as we know. The left is also being seeded with these kind of ideas by russia. Fact...

In the way of encouragement , I was just remembering Elon bought millions of dollars in shares last year at (not sure) but about 340, iirc. Dudes no fool financially, keep the faith.

'The inside of the battery is made up of a sheet of a positively charged electron (anode)' Linnette Lopez. I think charge on electron is required by forth grade standards.

Do I understand correctly that the reduced numbers in q1 was due to shortage of cells? I don't have a handle on cells per car for the various models and all like some of you do. But didn't Elon just say that that's the constraint?

Exactly, game, set, match. It takes a little longer for the journos to get it but what'll happen Monday when they get that game over tesla won phrase onto the the street? Of course, "Elon's crazy, blah, blah" Oh but the day before he reentered three orbital rockets roughly simultaneously and...

A decade is good! Of being the only car anyone wants? valued 5-10 times any other? Oooooh yeah.

'teslas are appreciating assets'! EM in the podcast. If they took that seriously leasing on their terms is very profitable. They could loan them out for free and take them back years later at a profit.

Thank you very much. I checked the first ten some links in that list. Same thing, no further than 2007. The data is being hidden. This is because homelessness spiked, that year, not back in the seventies when Reagan betrayed his neighbors by throwing out the mentally impaired onto the streets...

Just like to say let's remember the mission. I'm relatively poor but my money is for tesla. When the sp drops I feel the more strongly my commitment to doing the right thing. I love you, supporters of the mission.

I'm looking for data on homelessness rates over the years back ideally thirty plus years.Web searching for quite a while I don't seem to find what I'm looking for, which I thought would be immediate, you know homeless pop function of year. Only finding back to 2007. Knowing you folk on top of it...

not often applied to someone who lives on a voyaging canoe.

Closed minded is an insult.

I'm sorry, true, I should have understood better what you were saying about people being turned out on the street, and I'm sorry for your personal experience. Please forgive my insensitivity.

Good instincts!

I myself am on the autistic spectrum. Lots of people would lock me up if possible. No thanks to your strait jackets and lobotomies my friend. I'll take the street.

This is "least restrictive environment" are you sure you advocate restricting people more than necessary? Why don't we accept a diversity of people living in our communities? All kinds of crazies live together in Honduras, Samoa, Malaysia, etc.

Never mind the joke. I actually have superficial interactions with homeless people daily because I live car-free and they are always sober. Typically stand offish toward my straight guy look though.

I'm sorry if I misunderstand but I thought this was about smoking a little dope and drinking a sip of booze. Please correct me.

Respectfully, I think you might underestimate the pervasiveness and power of the marketing industry. Think of 'baywatch'. In the typical episode the hero hunk lifeguards strutted out in high powered speedboats to rescue feeble people drifting helplessly in sailboats. There were never laughing...

Elon famously self medicates in public and some members here mentioned dosing themselves. There are other things involved. For example just to receive assistance one has to produce evidence of state residence, typically a utility bill. The homeless don't have this. Homeless people are not all...

Thanks for the response. Better for mental illness the idea in my pic above. These are your people.
