Cont: Musk, SpaceX and future of Tesla II

Hardly surprising - it's a popular stance, especially among republicans. They are always talking about keeping the government out of the market so the invisible hand can do its thing without interference. .

which would be hilarious if it wasn't so deluded, as Musk's success is 100% the result of the US putting its thumb on the scales for him time and again.
 
i like how the replay is “yeah makes sense, he’s a republican that hates evs”

No, I will not play Whac-A-Mole for you.

Interesting. I had presumed it would censor the whole word, as I have seen people being warned for just doing part of it.

Hard to tell when we don't know what you wrote. I just have to assume it's a nasty word, which makes you a hater.

Somebody using a word that the auto censor doesn't like doesn't make then a Musk hater. It's just the reality of the situation. Time after time the words that come out of Musk's mouth prove to be falsehoods.

You know perfectly well what the word is. Bovine excrement.

We all know what it means, and its hardly a nasty word, and no it doesn't make me a hater. Penn and Teller produced an entire series named exactly that.

That there is no alternative "polite" word for such an accurate descriptor is hardly my fault.
Musk is a producer of bovine excrement. He is a ********ter.

Yep. I'm in Texas, it's a bit hard to imagine all the good ole boys trading in their giant powerful pickups for an EV.

I’ve seen a few lightnings in Kerrville and Fredericksburg, but I’ve only seen one cybertruck.

We’ve spotted 6 or 7. First two near Austin when we drove to that area for the eclipse. Third on the Interstate near Tampa. The rest near us in the Knoxville area.

One very close to us is being used by a local business. If nothing else, the CyberTruck makes for an effective rolling billboard:

Damn!
That is one ugly car! :boggled:

But ideal for turning it into a billboard, you've got that right!

I've seen half a dozen or so Cybertrucks, sometimes headed in the direction of the Austin factory which is only a few miles away. Not sure about Lightnings, they don't stand out like the Cybertrucks.
 
see, to anyone else saying they are not dropping the low cost model and they’ll be revealing the robotaxi and both will go into production late this year right before a the end of the quarter earnings report to the shareholders, and then doing neither would be a lie. i’d even argue that’s a scam, collecting investment money and lying about what you’re doing with it.
 
It tells you everything about a capitalist when they would rather build a machine to replace humans than one to assist humans.

Musk says humanoid robots will be available in 2026, but we all know how he is on timelines. Also the price of 20k seems a bit optimistic. They do look cool, prototypes in link.

I don't know why everybody is so obsessed with the humanoid shape. It seems to me that, by doing that, you are committing lots of sophisticated resources like actuators and sensors and complex software to simple things like just standing upright. If your robot is going to operate in an environment where you know the floor is flat, just stick it on four wheels.
