What I find fascinating is that some people actually believe this will be made. It really is a full on cult at this point. How does anyone find this even remotely feasible? How does he go on stage and talk about it with a straight face? 

TBF the Cybertruck probably will/would have a shit ton of issues with regulations.

Why invest in basic things like improved QC or finishing development of the truck, roadster, semi, and probably something else I’m forgetting, when they can invest in ~*rObOtS*~ ?!

ASIMO is still better, cuter, and less of an arse.

Can the auto journalist world agreed to call this “Alleged Full Self-Driving,” “Full [sic] Self-Driving,” ““Full Self-Driving Vaporware” or something to indicate that it’s not really what it’s being sold as?

Look, give them a break, they’ve tried nothing and are all out of ideas!

If you want to get around the Big Island and see more than a resort, a rental car is the only reasonable way to do it. I would be infuriated if I was a resident, but it’s hard to blame tourists for choosing a legal and economical option.

If only there was a publicly funded way of transporting large groups of people all over the island without needing to have everyone drive their own car.

So they canceled the only good thing that matters (500+ mile range option), and basically made this a very expensive performance pack with a stupid steering wheel design.

Is there anything more to the Model S Plaid than crazy power? I’ve seen article after article about that, but as far as I can tell it is still using the same interior and pretty much the same exterior?

Right, but that’s just basically a preorder shopfront, seeing as the game’s development always has and always will be actually funded by Gearbox (obviously, since a proper studio would burn through $1.5 million in no time).

Hm, looks like the company started in August of 2015 and they started allowing non-accredited users to invest in campaigns in December of 2015. So pretty close to their entire run has been like that. Just thinking that Homeworld 3 allowing this sort of thing isn’t all that unusual for a Fig project.

That makes sense, I can see Embracer giving a hard no to sharing profits on a newly acquired IP.

Yeah, I don’t want a 6000 PSI air tank designed and built by Tesla anywhere near me, let alone directly behind me sitting on top of 800KG of li-ion batteries. 

Same, when Tesla first started I was absolutely a fan. Now that I can afford one, I don’t really want one. I still like the exterior styling, and don’t really care about the charging (since 99% of the time I’d be charging at home) but I’m right there with you for all of the other reasons you mentioned. Add to that the…

When the Model S was announced, there was no car on the market that I wanted more. But I couldn’t afford it.

Yeah, that’s another thing they can keep. Fortunately, while they may be able to keep screwing up new vehicles in ways that make me not want them, they cannot screw up older cars that are just getting less expensive.

Walmart can't do that, they used all their locked up aisles for products primarily purchased by black people. They aren't really subtle. 

This. The next couple years are going to be fraught for any second hand cards... making the demand for new cards even higher than it already is.

Honestly I think the crash in Crapto prices is probably more likely to have an impact than “slightly less useful GPUs” (a smaller profit is still a profit). It’s going to be like last time where the only saving grace will be when the cost of “mining” what is essentially the backbone of money laundering becomes too…
