  • I’ve rated a couple of places without having been there, this never happened.

    Yeah well you shouldn’t do that

    Look at how many people give five stars without a comment for this factory. A 4.2 rating for a Tesla factory outside Berlin is just dubious.

    Why do you say that? The Germans love Teslas. You don’t think people would positively rate a modern factory that will provide cheaper cars and job opportunities for people? On the subject of “they had to cut down a forest to build it,” you do know that was a lumber farm, right? It wasn’t an old growth forest.


  • I mean, Gigafactory Berlin (and Google itself) is trash, but it’s not really in a review service’s best interest to let users publish negative reviews for places the person has never been to.

    There’s probably some trigger that kicks in of x amount of people who aren’t from the area write negative reviews about a specific place within a certain time frame that soft-locks reviews and says “this place is probably being brigaded.”

    This isn’t even to get into whether or not controversies surrounding a building’s construction are appropriate reasons for a review









  • Electric cars don’t solve every problem with private vehicle ownership but they’re certainly a step in the right direction. Most EVs average an equivalent of more than 100mpg versus most ICEs, which are around 30-40. You can also power an EV with renewable resources. This isn’t possible with ICEs (yes, I know you can power certain diesels with biofuel, but it’s horribly inefficient).

    “Buying a new car is worse than keeping an old one” is an incredibly situational phrase that has a million exceptions for so many people.
