They removed radar in 2021 for cost-cutting reasons and have never had LiDAR, which Elon called “a fool’s errand”.

Knowing the insanity of die-hard Tesla fans, it’s likely to try and protect himself.
“I love my Tesla, but” has been a meme for years now because if you ever went on forums to get help or complain what a giant heap of shit the car was, and didn’t bookend it with unabashed praise, you’d have people ripping you to shreds calling you a FUDster and Big Oil shill who’s shorting the stock and trying to destroy the greatest company the world has ever known.
People have learned over the years that even with the most valid of criticism for the company, the only way to even attempt to have it received is by showing just how much you actually love Tesla and Daddy Elon, and your complaints/criticism are only because you care so much about the company and want them to do better. Yes, it’s fucking stupid and annoying, but sadly this is the reality we’ve created for ourselves.
And why they completely ignore that trans men exist any time trans people come up.
At a buy-here-pay-here dealer that specializes in salvage title “luxury” cars.
Nah, he’s definitely been to Epstein’s Island
Also worth noting that he’s stated himself that his companies’ values are all heavily tied together, and that it’s a “carefully balanced house of cards”. If Tesla falls, so to does everything else.
The “pre-orders” weren’t pre-orders. They didn’t secure a VIN, were zero commitment, and were fully refundable at any time. You were literally just giving Tesla a free loan of $100 to say “I might buy one of these”.
Other models? Absolutely. Cybertruck? No, fuck those people. Elon was full mask-off fascist by the time deliveries started.
I think you’re underestimating just how stupid and impulsive Elon is. Reminder that this is a man who decided to get rid of the color yellow at the factory, simply because he doesn’t like it. Anyone who’s ever worked at a factory or industrial site knows that yellow is kind of everywhere as a safety color. But Musk is, again, one of the dumbest people alive and is totally okay making a massive decision that will almost immediately cause harm, solely because he wants to.
He’s not playing 4D chess, he’s playing baby’s first turn-based strategy game and even then he’s not very good at it.
Pretty sure that’s what Musk thinks his is.
Reminds me of mandrakes from Harry Potter. They scream like they’re alive but they’re just there to be harvested.
Funnily enough, this is exactly how billionaires view us.
Ooh, ooh, look at the price of a single Tomahawk missile or anything else we regularly blow up, even in training exercises!
You can either aid democracy in South Africa, or have 1 Tomahawk. I wonder which does the most good…
Not even that. Gun owners re-elected Mr. “Take the guns away 1st, due process 2nd”, they don’t even give a fuck. They’re all a bunch of hypocrites and will screech “SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED” over and over, but completely ignore the fact that Trump’s policies were absolutely abysmal for gun owners.
Bold to think they can read, and aren’t just ad-libbing whatever wet fart of a thought enters their head.
It’s very much a “reclaimed word” in the same way the n-word is. Totally cool if one of my queer friends says it, not cool if some rando on the street shouts it at me.
The Lightning has also been out for a few years now, so it’s not the “new” thing. Also, I feel like half of those cYbErTrUcK purchases were people trying to resell them.
AGM are absolutely awful compared to even the absolute worst lithium batteries, and won’t last long at all if regularly cycled below even 50% SoC. LFP chemistries are a bit worse for energy density compared to NCA/NCM chemistries, but they don’t contain any nickel or cobalt, and won’t autoignite in the same way other chemistries will. Absolutely ridiculous they’re suggesting lead batteries over better lithium options.
The other problem is that they A.) Don’t understand how sex works, and B.) Couldn’t even manage to get their own stupid 6th grade biology definition correct.
Yeah, that’s pretty much exactly what they’re doing.
