@au_tom_otive The only surprise is that anyone is surprised.

@UmairNauman_ @elonmusk I didn’t have time, but I made the time. I hope it’s a sign of things to come.

@sarah_go_green @g__j @OctopusEnergy Well deserved!

@SocialistNHS That would probably be the only strategy that Rishi could use to prevent Labour from winning the next election😂

@RSymonsLTD After your videos of matrix I was looking forward to receiving my Highland last week… and the matrix headlights are brilliant. I’d say better than the iPace and a BMW M5 years ago. But the no stalks thing… still hating it. And the indicators… hating them.

[Rob Pickering @robpickeringuk]

@RSymonsLTD Fantastic and only £50 per hour. Here's the company: https://t.co/3wbhAr1aVT
Thought we may as well give them some proper publicity! @RSymonsLTD better give them a call for their business😜

@NicDensley @g__j And I think it’s similar with the energy market. Greg’s team think outside the box and facilitate features with software. Imagine telling the old energy companies to invest in software! They couldn’t even get billing right!

[Rob Pickering @robpickeringuk]

@NicDensley @g__j Two main reasons I think: mindset and a lack of software ability and priority. Tesla seemed to create software with car hardware on it. Traditional manufacturers create all the hardware and grudgingly allow a fraction of a percentage of the development for software.

@KiwiEV @ogre_codes Hmm… seniors… what age is that? I’m 60. At age 14 I was one of the first learning computer science at school - no computer in school though. Now I have an Apple Watch, iPad, MacBooks, and spent yesterday installing and playing with Microsoft copilot for Office 365😜

@graeme_cobb Enjoy. I took one out for an hour last weekend and did lots of roundabouts. I think it’s a bad decision to remove the stalks. Will I cope with it? Absolutely - I’ve ordered one. BUT it’s a dumb move. I might be one of those adding them back.

@PeoplesTariff @TeslaOwnersUK @TeslaCharging @teslaeurope On the existing plan at one of the M5 service stations from memory.

@au_tom_otive Have to say that in South Oxfordshire we get plenty of potholes - BUT - if we report them on https://t.co/keAB3VWEiM they are usually repaired within just a few days. Reporting them works - no matter how much we bitch and moan if we don’t report them, they don’t get fixed.

@g__j You’re assuming that they’re willing to think and plan ahead. But more likely the industry established on dinosaur juice will go the same way as the dinosaurs.

[Rob Pickering @robpickeringuk]

@rbsp2bqt66 @KateFantom We’ve had two cars repaired, so definitely not true. Interestingly though the battery packs are very valuable, so if the insurance company knows it can get a good scrap price, and the repair cost is high, perhaps the threshold at which they will write it off is different.

@SoVeryBritish Is it raining?

[Rob Pickering @robpickeringuk]

@PeterHewkin @DeborahMeaden See the video of Greg, first small model in December, larger home models to follow ‘shortly’ after. And if Greg says it, I believe it. Most honest and straightforward man I know in a position of power. No pun intended.

@AldiUK Dora - gotta be:-)

[Rob Pickering @robpickeringuk]

@robhawkes Balance forecast sounds great. I spent ten mins reading all about it and excitedly clicked the button to try it… only to discover that Intelligent Octopus isn’t what you consider a standard fixed or flexible tariff. Hey, it’s standard to me! Come on, get back to the coding:-)

@sunnyladle @JeremyNic666 Significant cobalt is used in oil refining and catalytic converters… better ban the use of oil.
