The Model Y’s entire rear window broke in the process

Someday we'll have the technology to manually back into a parking spot

Stop doing this “Company loses $X on every unit it sells” nonsense. It’s misleading and sensationalized. Ford, and most companies (Even Nissan, allegedly!) spend money developing new products. They spend that money in anticipation of future sales. Dividing total development cost (already paid up front) by the first

Yeah this tech is definitely ready to take over for drivers completely!

Has a car manufacturer ever faked a video showing a car operating on cruise control could easily navigate icy conditions at high speed?

What is the business proposition for xAI anyhow?  What does it do and how does it generate revenue?  If you’re dumping billions into something, I would expect many more billions back.

The tourists coming from Cruise are not the tourists you want. They dont stay at hotels, dont stay overnight for dinner and if you have been in Santorini, you will know they are shuttled in buses to the upper part of the island. These are not good for the locals. You want tourists that stay overnight and these are not

If they voted to hand the world’s richest man an additional $56 billy, they’re going to vote to hand money over to other companies, going to vote to smash their own balls, and vote to nuke Costa Rica because it sounds Spanish-y. Rubes, cultists, and sycophants rule the voting bloc.

Oh I can 100% promise you the residents know when she ships are coming.  Tourists are a plague, but they can also bring in a TON of money to a community, so yeah everyone knows what’s up.

xAI is only a few months old, and it already needs a bailout?

Haven’t you heard, Tesla is no longer a car company. It’s an AI company... and the CEO is running an AI company of his own! Instead of that being grounds to kick him to the curb, they’re going to pay him billions to buy his side hustle he was working on instead of doing his actual CEO job! And there’s no question this

Santorini was always a tourist trap, even forty years ago, but ever since China discovered it it has become a neo-dystopian hellscape and I am surprised the locals even allow any tourists in any form whatsoever at this point.

He wasn’t allowed to drive to begin with so I don’t see how stricter licensing rules would have prevented this.

Musk’s political beliefs and creep personality certainly don’t help Tesla sales—except possibly the Cybertruck facistmobile—but I’d think increasing competition from a wider variety of electric vehicles is making a bigger dent. As suggests an article in the NYT today, Musk’s support for Trump may be motivated by

He’s got a way to solve that. Is it no surprise to anyone, let alone a massive red flag to investors, that he is now touting Tesla as an AI company while he is also running his own privately owned AI company on the side??

Zero tolerance does not work. This is how people end up driving without a driving license and insurance. He is 16 years old guy who has not been raised right, this does not mean he cannot grow up into a good adult. People needs a second chance once they have paid for the mistakes they made.

Apart from anything else one-and-done laws don’t tend to discourage crime, they actually encourage it. If you are gonna be permanently banned or jailed, criminals tend to go big to make it worth it. And also just keep illegally doing the behavior too, because what more they gonna do? Ban them for two or three

The only protection against bad facades is a good guy with a gun. Wait, that’s not how that works. Anyway, you’re 100% on point.

Trump and Musk are fascists, racists, misogynists, and trans/homophobe. If you buy a Tesla and thus support them financially, that makes you a fascist, racist, misogynist, and trans/homophobe. It’s just that simple.

That Ross Gerber isn’t really self-aware, is he?
