The passion that Tesla owners tend to have for their cars is perhaps unrivaled across the auto industry. So even though some Tesla vehicles have had their fair share of issues — with fit and finish problems on the Model X being an obvious example — Tesla owners, by and large, are much happier with their cars than anyone else.

Driving this point home, a new report from Consumer Reports (via CNBC) reveals that Tesla’s Model 3 is currently the “most satisfying car” among all car owners. That data is the result of a survey in which Consumer Reports asked car owners if they would re-buy their existing car if they could go back in time. The survey also called on respondents to answer questions regarding the driving experience, audio quality, perceived value, comfort, and more.

There are lots of cool sights to see here on planet Earth, but our Solar System is filled with planets that are just as interesting, and we’re just now getting a chance to see them.

This stunning image of sandy dunes on Mars is a great example. The photo was snapped by the HiRISE camera built into NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, and it’s immediately apparent that what you’re looking at is otherworldly. The sandy crescents lay atop a dry, jagged surface thought to be lava rock that poured across the surface long ago.

After Tesla laid off some 9,000 workers last year and announced pink slips for another 7% of its workforce in January — which equates to laying off 3,000 more workers — it comes as no surprise that concerns about more layoffs remain pervasive inside the electric carmaker’s employee ranks.

That quickly became clear after the anonymous chat app Blind, where layoffs and related topics are always a popular subject for discussion, decided to launch an entire channel dedicated to this topic. Blind asked its community about layoff anxieties at the companies where they work, and in this survey that was open from February 2 through February 8, it quickly became clear that such worries were most acute at Tesla compared to tech companies where other respondents are employed.

Hey, remember that terrible Mars mission startup that just officially died because it totally ran out of money and it wasn’t even close to doing anything meaningful? Well, good(?) news! It’s back, and it apparently found someone that’s willing to part with a whole heap of cash to fund its ongoing existence.

In a new press release — the first official word from the company since July 2018, by the way — Mars One Ventures confirms reports that it has hit bankruptcy, while noting that it has a month to figure out how to drag itself out of its grave. As luck would have it, an unnamed investor has materialized to save the day.

Verizon was recently hit with a new lawsuit from the Pennsylvania attorney general over allegations that it promised but failed to deliver Amazon Echo devices and Prime subscriptions to new subscribers.

Filed yesterday, and originally brought to light by Ars Technica, the lawsuit alleges that Verizon in November of 2018 began enticing new subscribers with an “on us” marketing promo that promised users either a free Amazon Echo or a free Amazon Prime subscription. Users who decided to take Verizon up on the deal were subsequently given a 60-day window whereupon they could claim their prize.
