Tesla Cleared To Deliver Model 3 In Europe


After Tesla allowed customers in left-hand drive countries across Europe to order the Model 3 it seemed that the company would soon win approval to sell its cars across the continent. That has indeed happened. The company now expects to start delivering the Long Range Battery variant of the Model 3 in Europe next month.

Tesla has received the coveted approval from the Dutch vehicle authority RDW. This allows the company to sell its cars across the entire continent without requiring approval from individual member states of the European Union.

The approval has been granted to Tesla at a time when it’s making important changes in a bid to achieve sustainable profitability. The company recently cut 7 percent of its entire workforce and also ended its customer referral program.

In a letter to employees last week, Tesla CEO Elon Musk wrote that the shipment of higher priced Model 3 variants to Europe and Asia in the current quarter, “will hopefully allow us, with great difficulty, effort and some luck, to target a tiny profit.”

Tesla will also be focusing on selling more lower-priced variants of the Model 3, its first mass-market electric car. The company is looking to gain more foothold with the cheaper variants which will be key to establishing its dominance in this market.

DOOMBA Creates Doom Maps Using Your Roomba

Are you a DOOM fan? Of course, you are. Do you own a Roomba? Of course, you do. Now you can combine two of your favorite things into one new cool thing. DOOMBA is a script written by programmer and designer Rich Whitehouse for his 3D model and animation conversion program Noesis that allows you to create playable Doom maps from the data collected by your Roomba. How cool is that?

Now your little robot vacuum cleaner is helping you in a whole new way.  Now we just need to be able to put our Roomba in the actual map that it generates so that it can play a fun game of DOOM while we watch.

I’m eagerly awaiting that Black Mirror episode. Mostly because I can’t wait to see a gun-toting Roomba going crazy on some demons. Actually, I’d like to see that turned into a product. A robot that cleans my floor and secures my home? Hell yeah! Now that’s a DOOMBA. It would be the best security guard ever.

You can read more about the process and download the program from Rich’s website HERE if you’re interested in trying DOOMBA out for yourself.

The Star Wars galaxy is home to some of the most iconic starship designs in popular culture. We know the fabled wedge of the Star Destroyer roaring into view at the start of A New Hope, the legendary silhouettes of X-Wings and TIE Fighters are burned into our minds.
