      If you use reader mode you can get around that…

      And find you could’ve read the article in the same time as that…

        No. I just block sites from ever appearing again if they force you to create an account or if it is behind s pay wall.

      Ahhh yes, that time tested tactic of shooting the messenger. No amount of website blocking is going to get around the fact the cybertruck is terrible.

    As the Bay Area is both a nexus for world-class goobers and the region where Tesla used to be and kinda-sorta still is headquartered, I have seen a lot of Cybertrucks out in the wild over the past few months. They are remarkably fake- and shitty-looking in any context (Is that a big toaster with wi-fi next to me at the exit? Who’s driving the scrap metal assemblage with Bryan Colangelo-esque proportions? Why does every Cybertruck driver I glance at appear to be simultaneously peacocking for attention but also totally embarrassed, haunted by the unexamined knowledge that as a maneuver in a culture war they paid $100,000 for a car that doesn’t work?)

      I saw two of them this weekend. One of them was painted a bright, bright green, which managed to make it even uglier. When we were driving on the freeway next to the first one, my first thought was it looked like a vehicle from one of those cheap 70s or 80s sci-fi movies where they make some “futuristic” car by putting a shell on a regular car and you can tell that the suspension wasn’t modified to handle it, so it drives like shit and looks stupid.
