I don't know, merely not being beholden to Musk is a pretty big competitive advantage at this point.

You say, "biased towards the trans community," I say, "biased against baseless bigotry," as any sensible person should be.

Your ramblings may be scattered with statements that are agreeable in isolation (like "they are just people like the rest of us"), but your stance seems to ignore the fact that, unlike "the rest of us", the trans community is being specifically targeted and marginalized, so for the sake of equity it seems fair (not biased) for the rest of us to more vehemently defend them.

This is the kind of take I would expect from corporations trying to maximize sales of both electric and gas vehicles. Zero interest in actually addressing climate change, just bare minimum posturing.

A good decompiler and an auto-formatter might leave them with a nicer copy of their source code than they had in the first place.

EQ is earthquake. According to USGS, California faces a ~75% chance of a major earthquake in the next 100 years.

Have a quick google of "California quake risk" for a slew of in-depth (and somewhat scary) articles and research papers.

I would have thought California EQ was the peril scaring them all away. Very expensive to reinsure - most commercial property catasrophy models (RMS & AIR are the big ones) peg it as the second most risky North American peril after Florida Hurricane.
