A loose cannon who doesn't play by the rules.

@cre8tivemisfit @JesusH_Chrysler @harrismonkey Not true at all for many cars - mine requires a PIN before you drive it, so you'd have a job stealing it even *with* the keycard

[Jon Story @jon_story]

... I'd be kinda okay with it, apart from all the pointy edges

[Jon Story @jon_story]

I enjoy the fact that Ticketmaster try to sell me @timminchin 's album when buying tour tickets... using the pre-sale for people who've bought the album. Ticketmaster won't be happy until my entire house is so filled with Tim Minchin albums that I'll be literally swimming in them

@elonmusk @Tesla Why is the speedometer font so small in the latest update? Which idiot thought this was a good idea, and how soon can they be taken outside and shot.

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@lottyburns They're more hardwearing and don't get a weird fold in them when stood on a bookcase for decades - especially for books bigger than novels (kids books that you'll rest on your lap, or textbooks etc). It's paperback novels I don't see the point of - give me an eBook any day

@elonmusk It would be great if one of the scrollwheels was temporarily co-opted to become a wiper-speed control for a few seconds after we push the wiper button. Touchscreen adjustments on a twisty road during a rainstorm don't feel very safe!

@DimaMsuthu @DaimlerTruckBus @MercedesBenz (That's total capacity)

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@DimaMsuthu @DaimlerTruckBus @MercedesBenz 80-145 passengers depending on specification. Technical brochure can be found here

@MattGlen1990 @harrismonkey Hamilton blasted through the back half of the field, sure... but it took him 22 laps to pass slower cars without damage. That isn’t the same as passing the faster cars. Lewis’s didn’t pass a McLaren (who looked fast today) and didn’t fare great vs Perez

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@Holtmoney51 @harrismonkey Comfortably, I’d say - he was ahead of Sainz when he took his penalty and Sainz very nearly pipped it despite a squabble with Stroll slowing him down. Lewis in a faster car and without that battle wasting time would almost certainly have won

@Ste_Story “I like driving vans” “Yeah me too” “Look, blue flashing lights” “ha, cool”

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@MartinSLewis a small change suggestion to improve the Credit Club - show last month’s credit score alongside the current one, so it’s easier to see whether it’s improving or declining

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@VerduynKoenraad @harrismonkey (2) The “sort of connected” is because the battery is made up of lots of smaller battery cells. If you have a small battery then you don’t have a lot of cells and can’t pull as much energy per second from them. But that actually means longer range EVs tend to have more power

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@VerduynKoenraad @harrismonkey That isn’t quite how it works - power is about how much energy per second you can take from the battery (& the size of the motor), but range is about how much energy the battery holds in total. They’re sort of connected but only to an extent: you can’t just swap power for range

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@coltman88 Probably gonna piss this tinpot league, I think

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@lottyburns Not a chance this is true - the government can’t automatically fine you like that, that isn’t how it works

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@JoshuaBurns @T_2292 @BMW_UK @maddiemoate @FullyChargedShw I disagree with the availability of chargers - I own an EV, but I wouldn’t buy one if I didn’t have off road parking at home. There’s exactly 1x 50kW charger within an hour’s drive of me...

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@GreggsOfficial Do you have a corporate jet? If so, I’d bring the Greggs corporate jet.

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@AsiansGolf @HyperX This is true for the most part - although sometimes a cheap keyboard can limit how many simultaneous key presses you can send, which can cause issues. Above that level, then yeah

[Jon Story @jon_story]

@AdamL1ndlyy___ @bbccumbriasport You can colour it however you like, but anyone turning down a chance to play in the Football League, just to play in front of a thousand extra people and have a shorter commute, lacks ambition
