keep your main phone in a secret/secure pocket.

Terrible idea, it will be found with absolute certainty if you're arrested.

Yeah that's not even remotely the same type of sensor used in robotics and autonomous cars. Yes lidar is getting cheaper, but for high detail long range detection they're much more expensive than the case of your iphone example. The iPhone "lidar" is less than useless in an automotive context.

The original roadster is just a lotus Elise with a terrible DIY EV mod thrown in to it.

Those are called "bars" and not bricks, it even says so in your link. So technically it cannot qualify as the world's most expensive brick since it isn't a brick at all.

Can't do that here though

What client are you using? I can browse both upvoted and downvoted comments in Voyager

EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Damn, that seems like a ridiculously large product lineup for such a relatively small niche market.

reading those papers

Woah there Mr. Overachiever, you're making the rest of us look lazy...

Yeah that really sucks

It definitely didn't leave me with the feeling that my manager was happy with me or my work.

Exactly how he wanted it. A worker uncertain of their skill or value is much more likely to do whatever they want, and at a lower salary.

Their hourly rate is certainly lower than my local shop.

you "have to" bring it to Tesla for repairs and service

That's some big ass quotation marks, because it's not true at all. I've only had mine fixed by Tesla when it was a warranty issue. The service I've had done (brakes, general checkup and AC) have been done by a local shop without any issues. Had a fender bender that was fixed by a local shop too without any issues.

If the US decides to ban it then that's a move from the Chinese playbook. Don't be like China.

It has a bit of the same vibe as the "tolerating intolerance" paradox.
