Streaming services are basically the new cable at this point. We’ve all been aware of that for a few years, but cable actually made it easy to switch between channels, while streaming services always ask a little bit more of you. They don’t have to though, especially if you’re willing to drop a little bit of cash on a good streaming device. As it happens, we just so happen to have found a great deal on a great streaming device today too. See at Amazon The Amazon Fire TV Stick HD is currently d

In a video recorded by YouTuber DirtyTesla, a self-driving Model Y is seen turning and accelerating into a Toyota, making light contact with its tire. As seen in the video, the Model Y already dropped off its passenger, but had trouble navigating out of the dark alleyway afterwards.

Whether due to consumer backlash or an aging EV lineup, or both, Tesla sales have again seen a global plunge, this time 13 percent last quarter compared to the previous year—proof that the electric automaker hasn’t yet turned around a dismal year that saw public opinion of controversial CEO Elon Musk plummet.

The company's shares rose almost four percent on Wednesday, despite the company revealing that it had sold 14 percent fewer cars in Q2 of this year compared to the same period last year, the biggest drop in Tesla's history.
