That was first bribes. What about second bribes?

Trump is actually right here. Tax havens benefit themselves at the cost of their neighbours.

Close down tax havens!

Seeing musk, trump and a Tesla in a single shot just makes that toxic association so much stronger. I don't think this is going to play out like they hope.

Plus, you know the boycott is working, talk about desperate.

Haha. Nah, you're good 😊 . Brits like beans because they're cheap, easy and available. They're ok, hardly a culinary experience worth seeking out though :)

Although they are one of your five a day!

Using Twitter and so on for official government channels was a short sighted decision.

"not very good". I'm actually getting really rather angry about this. In fact I think this might be a hate crime.

Big tax incentives for business to buy ev's - 2% Vs 30% tax as a 'benefit in kind'. The two Tesla drivers I know both bought through their business and then gave it to themselves as a company perk.

However, Britain must try harder here. Other EVs are available.

You're correct. I guess they're comparing against compressed pngs. Judging from the image at least.

But still, I think they're cherry picking one of the worst formats to make the comparison look good.

Not to say that means this is bad. Just the cost/benefit is not nearly as good as it appears. We need comparisons against ETC or DXT.

The performance cost is not insignificant.

And comparing it to uncompressed original pngs is disingenuous. No games are using uncompressed textures.

I think a lot of people down voting this need to read it again. They're not saying you should go faster because someone is close behind, they're saying go slower.

If they're 5m behind you, the safe speed is 20. If they're 2m behind you the safe speed is 10. (Numbers pulled out of my hat).
