Not only that, but he expects to still have access to, and dominion over, cars already sold, meaning the buyers will have to continue paying Tesla indirectly, as they pay for electricity and battery degradation.

Don’t worry, Musk will promise the electric fields won’t reck havoc on medical equipment such as pacemakers or any other equipment (just about any other electrics). How? Well, magic, of course.

Ah, yes, having the driver outside the vehicle is”transformative”. I mean, you could have an entire extra passenger, while ignoring the problems that can occur with having to rely on wireless control

You’re wrong on all counts. I live in Europe (I’m back in Denmark where I come from), but have lived in a variety of countries, including the US, New Zealand, several European countries, and a couple of South American ones.

I can’t believe they called it a “van”. A “20 person van” is a bus. But they can’t call it that, as it would mean their idiotic fan base can’t as easily proclaim it to be “disruptive” and “innovative”. They are too stupid to realise it is a small bus, not a van.

By the way, that AI generated “van” thing was fed this train (art deco streamliner):

He promised autonomous full self driving “next year” back on 2016, so the 2027 promise will mark a full decade of unrealistic promises.

No, this conversation is about being able to read sexting text and “male frontal nudity”. Hence you (once again) claiming this is about anal sex and whatnot is a fucking strawman.

I don’t live in the US either, nor am I an American, but somehow you’re American and think cyclist belong on the sidewalks, yet you think you claiming to live outside the US somehow makes your insane US opinion of bikes belonging on the sidewalk valid.

Mindset change,which will lead to less “distracted” driving, and safe cycle paths in areas where there are many people around.

You need to go travel. Fucking idiocy. You’re the problem.

Ah, you’re one of the people who thinks we should ride bikes on sidewalks.  US insanity par excellence.

Not everyone lives in the US where drivers think that no one else should be on the road, and it’s on other people/road users to avoid them. Fucking insanity. It’s the mindset that is wrong, not the “distracted” part.

Way to strawman my position. We are talking “frontal nudity” here. So go fuck yourself with that strawmanning my position.

A lot of drivers think bicycles should only be ridden on the sidewalk, and if they are on the streets and roads, it’s their fault for getting hit.

I explain when necessary. That’s the deal with having kids.

Ah, yes, it’s everyone elses job to raise your kids.

Again, words are not magical, nor is nudity.

Sheesh! Grow the fuck up. Words don’t have magical powers, regardless of how religious you are.. Neither is “male genitalia”.
