Seems appropriate... An electric car company now has an electric CEO.

What the hell are they are trusting a database to do, probably only really simplistic things -  sounds like a load of horseshit to me. :)

It is hard to put the blame on yourself when the joke is not that funny.

I assume you know The Daily Currant just posts fake news stories?
Here's one about a self driving car: http://dailycurrant.com/2014/12/11/self-driving-car-escapes-lab-heads-for-mexico/ (http://dailycurrant.com/2014/12/11/self-driving-car-escapes-lab-heads-for-mexico/)

Kind of like The Onion news media satire company. Poking fun of everything but at first glance, appeared as a real newscast. Oddly, a lot of the younger generation have been turning to it to stay current with today's topics. Who knew?

Yeah I figured something was fishy. Reminds me of a few weeks back when a British newspaper published a story in which they described a world-wide sun 'blackout' or 'darkening' and stated that NASA had confirmed that. A lot of the local media in my country  copied this and before you know it Europe was brainwashed lol.

I checked NASA's official website (I also follow all of their FB pages) but I failed to find even a mention of this. They later confirmed that they never said anything about a solar blackout.
