stfn"Imagine paying upwards of $8,000 for peace of mind during a grid outage, only to find out Tesla remotely drained your backup battery to 0% because it might otherwise catch fire."
I would not even buy a pencil from Tesla at this point.

Christina WarrenI never met Bill Atkinson but HyperCard had a profound impact on my life as a young child in the early 1990s. Thank you Bill for all your contributions to society and prayers and love to his friends and family. RIP. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10238073579963378&id=1378467145

Scott Francis“Work is service, not gain. The object of work is life, not income. The reward of production is plenty, not private fortune. We should measure the prosperity of a nation not by the number of millionaires, but by the absence of poverty, the prevalence of health, the efficiency of the public schools, and the number of people who can and do read worthwhile books.”
