Well, quite obviously this was impossible. The question was how it was done. And so I see that it is from being purely photoshopped.

These are the sorts of things that Frank and John believe outright - like statistics that make no sense in the real world.

It's hard to tell tech updates from fake news:

This is why we can't have satire any more.

I think that were I to manage an electric car project that I could have a prototype up and running in perhaps 8 or 9 months. But then I don't believe in being able to text your car to meet you somewhere. Or to be able to go from 0 to 200 in a quarter mile. I would be terribly practical.

This would never happen in the USSR either. Why don't you move there and be really really safe.

Never? You're forgetting things again:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscow_theater_hostage_crisis

We do, however, seem to have the record for recurrences among advanced
industrialized nations. We're number one! We're number one!

As to why I don't move there: I'm happy here. Sure, I'd like certain
things to be better; but I don't spend all my time moaning about the
hellhole I live in, as do certain other posters.

So what you're saying is that you can't be guaranteed safety anywhere but you will complain about the slightest fear anyway?

Hey, we're all megabytes behind you on our complaining posts. You owe us
complaining time!

And yet, I'm the guy who says I'm happy. You're the guy living in a
hellhole, remember? Perhaps you should move to the USSR.

(BTW, here's another memory jog for you: The USSR no longer exists. Fire
up your time machine!)

Remember - I'm the one happy with a Constitution that allows guns in the hands of common citizens. You're the one crapping in your pants over the thought that your neighbor might have one.

More bullshit. There's a gun within about 20 feet of me. Hell, one of my
friends is a noted gun designer.

Your misery is overwhelming your capacity for logic.

In that case why are you crying at the thought that someone might own a gun that isn't in the hands of a government agent pointed at your head forcing you to turn all your money over to Uncle Sam?

"Guard with jealous attention the public liberty. Suspect everyone who approaches that jewel. Unfortunately, nothing will preserve it but downright force. Whenever you give up that force, you are ruined.... The great object is that every man be armed. Everyone who is able might have a gun."
- Patrick Henry, Speech to the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 5, 1778

Oh, wait, according to YOU the 2nd Amendment was only meant to protect the people from invading armies.
