A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

What's with the fact that the model 3 is the only one to commonly get shortened when it's also the one where the shorthand clashes with a car with way more history, the BMW M3?

I normally wouldn't but figured in context it made sense. But tbf they're similar 0-60 times at least. I'm sure the rest of the handling is significantly better in the BMW, as well as quality, but I'm at 100k miles on my C63 and ready for some lower maintenance fun at this point. Until I can afford a 3 car garage and lift, or something, which probably isn't for a while.
