Let’s be honest. The only reason to buy a Tesla over any other EV is supercharging. I think they didn’t realize that. In an attempt to get the other EVs into their charging network to make more money, they actually fucked themselves by removing the only advantage their cars had. So now it’s damage control but probably too late.
I don’t care enough right now to confirm this, so take it with a grain of salt. Because the charging network was backed by so many federal grants, the federal government was going to require they open the network to other cars eventually. I think the Tesla elected to roll it out at their own pace before the government forced into it for marketing reasons.
And while we're at it should seize the airlines and healthcare and all major corporations... Oh wait what
Almost right. There’s a lot of federal funding to build out a charging network but the charger can’t be locked to a specific manufacturer. Tesla wisely came up with the NACS charger and opened the standard up for other car companies to use. SAE adopted the Tesla NACS into their own standard. The federal government doesn’t have the fucking guts to do something like force a company to comply.
Saw my first cybertruck in the wild. Was ridiculous and just jarringly ugly. Kinda can get over the dumb looks, at least it’s interesting/unique in a cookie cutter truck market. BUT I can’t excuse that they made it look more dumb AND less functional as a truck. Stupid bed. Stupid stainless steel material. Stupid frame that collects water basically I’m saying that if the truck looking stupid was to account for some great leap in utility I could give it a pass. But it doesn’t do truck things better than trucks so…
My severed finger can temporality serve as a stylus for the navigation system. Love this truck more every day.
I’ll just throw it out there: sticking any appendage in any pinch point is dumb. I despise Elon as much as the next guy, but if Ghandi made an EV, I wouldn’t stick my finger in it just to see what happens.
I slept on the floor at work once…ONCE I was on a work trip, got off the plane coming home at about 10 pm, and my pager blew up. Drove straight to the office to rebuild the financials app from tape backup. This was when that shit took time. I was there 73 hours and got a few hours sleep in on the floor. After rescuing the company, I got, “Thanks. What time will you be in tomorrow?”
so as I run across really vile shit on twitter that’s supporting or encouraging behavior that harms people I’ll hit report as violence or hate speech or whatever. Not everything, because that’s a full time job for for thousands. But anyway I’m getting flooded with emails from reports going back years and they all say the same thing that they’re sure I’m disappointed, but the automated system has determined jizzpotato69’s tweet was not violent or hate speech. No access to the actual tweet, but I know if I felt the urge to report it that it was pretty bad.
They make table saws that can stop a saw blade upon finger contact with little more than a scratch, yet somehow these frunks will devolve into a set of jaws that actively devours entire limbs and he’ll call it an epic security feature.
I did it twice. Once because I was there late working a basketball game and the roads got icy so decided to sleep in the office since I definitely had to be back there in the morning. I had planned in advance for this and took a pillow and a sleeping bag. Second time it was the dead of winter and the power went out at the house. Wasn’t projected to be back on until sometime the next day. We had cable TV in our conference room and obviously WiFi so I just decided to spend the night in the office instead of freezing at home.
"public posts" there is not a way to make specific tweets "private" so im not sure what he means, unless he's saying put your entire account as private
