I had the opposite thought - now that it’s opened up to everyone, it wouldn’t surprise me they don’t want to dedicate more time to it. Instead let all the other automakers continue to spend time and money.

Seriously, what the hell?  If I’m behind a bunch of...unicyclists? OK...on a one-lane road then I may not like it but I’m not going to commandeer a lane on the other side of the street.

“Slow down” not on the menu? I suppose that’d to be expected if you train the AI model on US driving. 

This is how a P.R. guy would spin it:

Car wash mode just closes all windows, locks the charge port, and disables windshield wipers, Sentry Mode, walk-away door locking, and parking sensor chimes. 

I like the idea of a driving test for self-driving capabilities. We could even adapt the name of the test used to see if an AI can convince people through conversation that it’s human, to automotive use - call it the “Touring Test”!

Was that a wooden bridge?

The disappointment is real

A billionaire setting a social media network he literally owns on a random college student — and then going “I didn’t do anything!” like a Goddamn child. You couldn’t make a movie out of this because it would be too unrealistic and over-the-top.

So tweeting publicly available info about his private jet that never got him a single threat can endanger his life, but telling his millions of followers a lie about. an innocent man that gets him death threats isn’t a big deal.

“if you’re suggesting that in order to reply to anyone, you have to scroll through all their posts, that would make it impossible to use the system.”

Everything I read about this makes me feel like it’s a repeat of the DeLorean in the 80s. Terrible quality doomed the car, even though it was cool...and then there was the whole John/coke thing...which I suspect is similar to Elon’s arc.

The Cybertruck is going to be a business school case study for the next 100 years.

Regardless of what they all said when the C8 was first announced, I can assure you that the boomers do in fact love them. 

Lexus RX. Every boomer coming out of a CR-V looking to “finally splurge a bit” is buying them, my parents included.

Corvettes and brodozers.

Lucky for you the Tesla network is opening up to other brands, though that may get halted in the near future if it starts helping the competition too much. But are you honestly driving to places you don’t normally and really can’t find other fast charging locations within 100 miles anymore?

average consumers don’t know anything about the people running any company, even Elon Musk nor their political views

I guess people just don’t want to buy badly made cars that don’t work as advertised from a white supremacist piece of shit con-man.

Honestly, I think it my be my current daily driver. 2011 Volvo C30. Manual, enough safety stuff, buttons instead of screens and as fast as I need it to be.
