This incalculably hurt Tesla more than it accomplished anything else. They are truly rolling maga hats at this point.

Once they depreciate it becomes a more palatable option. 

Nothing, we already bought two EVs - one affordable (a $26k Bolt) for my long daily commute and a daily/roadtrip for my wife (ID.4). We are also lucky to have a two car detached garage which we ran a new subpanel out to install a couple ClipperCreek 32A EVSEs. I think there are a lot of people out there that could…

Price.

Iterative tests costing billions, polluting low earth orbit with their Starlink junk, and instead of designing something competently, they pull things out of a bag, and “test” those, further polluting. Not to mention their Boca launch site which is a shitshow in itself.

Look it up how they’ve failed to actually make it cheaper for NASA and how they’ve missed just about any deadline and technical compencency to make it to the moon.

It all goes back to him being forced to buy it for far more then it was worth because he’s an idiot. It wasn’t making enough revenue to cover the debt payments he had to take on to finance it before he started screwing it up. Now it’s just money down the drain at an accelerated velocity. I can’t see how this lawsuit…

My knowledge of law is pitiful at best, so maybe there’s something to the Twitter lawsuit. But “illegal boycott” is my new favorite phrase, since no is required to give your company money. Surely suing advertisers (less than a year after telling them to “go fuck themselves” if they didn’t want to use Twitter) will…

I’m a teacher and I’m still waiting for the iPad to revolutionize education.

“AI is slumping?... Tesla is a car company. Tesla has always been a car company.”

The bigger takeaway is how does this guy get away with blurring the lines between his publically listed company and his private ventures? SEC has put people in jail for less.

Wall Street is finally figuring out that all AI’s today are dumber than rocks, and that comparison is an insult to rocks.

And meanwhile, in the UK, he had a direct hand in starting the bigot-riots by unbanning the neo-Nazi who initially spread lies about the perpetrator of the knife attack on Twitter. And since then he has been shitposting about how a British civil war is now inevitable.

Also, a system that requires the driver’s full attention at all times is useless. May as well just drive yourself the entire time.

Former Jalop writer Jason Torchinsky had a great take on where we are with driver assistance. Which is that the current level of autonomy is far more dangerous than driving one’s self.

It is not fit for purpose, there should be a recall of all Tesla and that “feature” should be permanently disabled.

Setting aside the fact that riding, for me, always comes with being hyper vigilant, Tesla vehicles have joined semis in the category of special assholes to be mindful of because, statistically speaking, they sure as fuck aren’t being mindful back.

I was a lot more productive at work yesterday because of it haha

0th Gear: Thank god you fixed The Root rerouting (ReRooting?) error.

apparently a lot of people in America still care if the car says Toyota vs Ford on it regardless of where it was made.
