That was always the intention. It was created by music industry lobbyists solely to act as a one-sided bullying tool, which intentionally lacked any real safeguards or serious notification requirements. They and the politicians who created didn’t stop for one second to think about the ramifications or potential abuses…

Meanwhile in America

The only way this game can be realistic is if all of the economic/production data given to the player is completely fabricated and over-inflated, but you don’t know by how much. Like you think you have X units of steel being produced, but the reality is you have a fraction of that. And do that across all of your input…

DMCA is way too broad and easily abused.

Dude, he just wrote the article, don’t shoot the messenger.

I would actually respect him immensely if he somehow managed to stuff an anemic, cobbled-together nightmare of an engine designed after hours by some of the most inept European car makers of our time into this truck. 

I know they are refundable; I’m wondering if they would have the liquid assets on-hand to automatically refund all orders, or if they’d hold out

It boggles my mind that people still believe this thing will get approved by the DOT and manufactured in any meaningful way. Why anyone would support meme lord douchbag Elon is beyond me.

It’s almost like Elon Musk is a dumbass with the intellectual depth of a 9 year old and only knows about stainless steel because it’s what the DeLorean from Back To the Future was made out of and it would be le epic bacon if his meme truck was made out of the same thing. 

he fucking called it FULL SELF DRIVING  !!!!!

There are already class action suits being formed looking for good lead/named plaintiffs.

It’s only relevant if human miles are miles where Autopilot could be used. If the self driving system can only be used in optimal situations but the human driver is confronted with more challenging conditions then it’s not a direct comparison. Just highway driving would be a better way to see which is safer under…

he was not saying that it will be “as expensive” as a continental he was saying that people will sell their Bentley’s to buy a Genesis, which is not that far fetched of a claim. 

So, how long before the the lawsuit pops up from a customer who paid for something that Tesla now doesn’t plan to deliver?

“Better slap some buzz words on it so it looks like we did more. How about instead of a twinned manifold we call it a “super-manifold” and better sexy up that it uses 8 valves too”

We’ve taken 15-20 cheap and easy to source parts and combined them into 1 proprietary part that costs 10x as much as the sum of the individual parts and can only be ordered through us!

Because Tesla is cheap and cuts corners wherever it can.

I’ve said it before but I think its ridiculous that its taken this long to put heat pumps into EV’s and the industry shouting about how revolutionary/expensive/future facing/impractical etc etc is hilarious to people who understand this is just air conditioning +

How about, “Why did it take Tesla this long to add a Heat Pump?”

There’s a reason the Fuego is “rare” - the things had a tendency to self-destruct remarkably quickly.
