I don't know whether it is sad or funny that the guy who posted Tesla self driving fucking up and made the news still owns a Tesla, but Tesla has blackballed him from receiving repairs to his Tesla.
Imagine posting "my shitbox civic broke down again" on Instagram and having the CEO of Honda turn up and have a meltdown on your doorstep.
I hope this will not impact Tesla's ability to sell carbon credits
Steering wheel fell off, just normal car things. But we’ll buy back your car (which has nothing wrong with it anyways
they are gonna pay him aren’t they

I am sure the NLRB will take it very seriously and may even tut-tut musk, maybe even strongly
just another software update "recall"
apparently it just disables the rolling-stop feature
now they just need to disable the "hits curbs in the snow", "hits stationary objects at highway speeds", and "runs over children" features
Eberhard, who Musk ousted as CEO of Tesla in 2007, said creating software for the electric cars to drive themselves was the least of his concerns when he was at Tesla.
"So, keep in mind that all this FSD autonomous, autopilot crap — none of that existed when I was there," he said. "We were still busy trying to make the car work and we never thought about that at all. That came later. That requires a much, much bigger budget than we had."
this shit has a long way to drop, but if his song and dance press event is no longer wowing rubes, it might even happen
and all it took was him pissing off the business and tech press by running twitter into the ground
lol what is this
"groimes sombaddy drapped a loight saba in me truck, loike the stah wahs"
lmao it's mom from Futurama, complete with idiot sons
"shut up, kimbal! mom knows I'm the smart one!"

Nothing a simple over-the-air update can't fix, I'm sure
Dude is trying to start a cult or slave colony or both
JONES-TOWN! JONES-TOWN! JONES-TOWN!

Tesla Inc <a href="https://www.reuters.com/companies/TSLA.O" target="_blank">(TSLA.O)</a> boss Elon Musk on Wednesday doubled down on the price war he started at the end of last year, saying the electric vehicle (EV) maker would prioritize sales growth ahead of profit in a weak economy.
Sure love when my car shuts off on the highway
I’ve never looked real hard at the Tesla UI but it seems fucking weird for a car to have like a notification icon with an incredibly important information about stuff like traction control. Like I gotta tap a bell icon, while driving on the highway, to be told this?
pretty long letter but she makes a good point... unfortunately if anyone took board member independence and conflicts of interest seriously pretty much every company would be in trouble
I assume he's already posted something extremely sexist about this
This is extra funny because the Tesla board just settled a lawsuit in which they're giving 700 million in excess compensation back to Tesla
Just casually siphoning off 3/4 of a billion
Love when the accelerator on my 2 year old car snaps due to the shittiest cheapest most-profitable composite materials the manufacturer could afford.
Remember when they were going to cast whole frames?
This backfired hard in China because people had been waiting for a couple of years for their cars to be delivered and then prices were dropped for new orders and they wouldn't lower the cost of the cars that were already on order but hadn't been manufactured yet
what if we ran a wolf-of-wallstreet trading floor, but instead it was denying customer service?
this thing is hitting the news, so expect elon to come up with a massive diversion any moment

it goes on but you get the idea
lol this guy got locked out of his car by Tesla, who then used GPS to find and repossess the car, because an internal accounting error showed that he was missing payments on it even though he had paid the full price w/o financing when he bought it

Musk's record of failure and broken promises
Hi. In today's episode, we look at how autonomous vehicles (AVs) work, and also how they don't work, and also also how they're being tested on city streets w...
@cspam This is why I will never purchase a car that is mostly CAN.
If I can EMP it, no value.
@Stoneycase @cspam @MaxPow3r11 According to many reports (journalists), the Porsche Taycan consistently exceeds its (admittedly modest) advertised range.
I’ve read several articles on the topic, but this one will have to do for now.
@Stoneycase @mrcompletely @cspam @MaxPow3r11 How fucking dumb do you have to be to buy a Ferrari in any other color than the marque-default red?
Yes, yes, I know red cars get pulled over more often (even red Corollas). The whole goddamn point of Supercar ownership is not giving a shit about mundane concerns like gas mileage or speed limits. And scarcity/exclusivity has become part of the value of all the high end sports cars. It’s part of the whole deal. You should WANT the plebes to know it’s a Ferrari, even if you blow past them at 160! Red blur? Ferrari! Silver with two blue stripes? F40! Lime green or shocking orange? Ah, tricky, could be a Lamborghini, could be a McLaren.
I mean, look at this asshole. Yes that is a parking ticket. He DGAF.
To distract from the bad Tesla news the genius is going to add a few more cool Xs to the name of old Twitter.
