“yeah, but that’s a lot of bother— especially since a lot of the states that we’d have to convince are run by hillbilly goat rapists... It’s easier just to shout pointlessly and profanely into the internet void.”

Hilarious... tell me again how valuable “field Over The Air downloads” are!

OTOH, he’s seen-and-heard them all.

Damn, <checks his “screw COVID, we’re going all out this year” plan for holiday decor> this is going to hurt come December...

Yeah, even hint that “Tesla isn’t really a software company, it’s just another sleazy car company-- but with worse build quality” and their heads explode
