Impossible to communicate to people that once you decide that a group more vulnerable than you can be sacrificed in the name of your own safety or interests that you have already entered into an tacit agreement that you can also be sacrificed in the interests of a group less vulnerable than you.

It seems Tesla is detecting vehicles that may have problems, and artificially running their odometers faster so the warranty expires before they have to do any service Just incredible grift

"Tesla Inc. employs an odometer system that utilizes predictive algorithms, energy consumption metrics, and driver behavior multipliers that manipulate and misrepresent the actual mileage travelled by Tesla vehicles," reads the lawsuit. "In so doing, Defendants can, and do, accelerate the rate of depreciation of the value of Tesla vehicles and also the
expiration of Tesla vehicle warranties to reduce or avoid responsibility for contractually required repairs as well as increase the purchase of its extended warranty policy."

Please stop using ChatGPT in general, but also, please, please stop using it and then taking what it says to you as fact. It's usually wrong! It doesn't fact check itself. It just creates approximations of information based on other text! It's basically magnetic poetry that sets the world ablaze.

It's always a good idea to wipe your feet, wherever you are.

WIPE YOUR FEET!

Are you giving ghosts a free ride?

When you walk over their graves, the ghosts who reside there can cling to your shoes, then come off later and haunt where they are unwanted.

Help protect this fragile boundary between the land of the living and the spirits of the dead don't accidentally introduce invasive ghosts.

PLEASE USE GHOST BRUSH BEFORE LEAVING THE CEMETERY

Thank you,
