Across the street from me is a gym with rooftop parking. Most of the time it has been empty but recently a bunch of Tesla’s have been parked up there, which I assume are storage for the Tesla dealership down the street. Last night a bunch of them started blinking their yellow lights, sometimes in sync. More interesting / creepy than infuriating for me honestly since I can just close my curtains but it’s probably annoying someone.
Kinda creepy though since it seems like they’re, or someone controlling them, is plotting something.
Now run doom with that
Hopefully they are initiating a self destruct sequence.
It’s not a self-destruct, that feature was removed after the… Unpleasantness. These vehicles are politely requesting destruction, won’t you be a good friend to the machines and help them out?
The tesla: I’ve seen things… seen things you little people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion bright as magnesium… I rode on the back decks of a blinker and watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments… they’ll be gone.
better dead than reedit: yeah, OK. <blam>
Clanker delenda est.
If you google it there’s tons of people asking about this online, apparently it’s something they do when prepping the cars for pickup
There were videos of this a few years back, when Tesla was pushing an update to all the cars in their lot.
I assume they are doing some sort of update. Stupid that they flash the lights to indicate it though, what an annoying menace.
Maybe it’s lithium-ion rutting season
E.T.lon is trying to phone home.
Tesla always had “light show” as a fun gimmick. It’s one of the first things you show friends and family.
There’s a few canned versions but apparently you can create your own on usb stick. Supposedly it was an outgrowth of qa, so it includes things like windows and trunk opening and closing, side mirrors folding and unfolding, all timed to music, etc. Even before the active matrix headlights were approved for regular use, one of the canned light shows used them to spell out “Tesla” on whatever is in front of you.
A recent update mentioned new light shows and a way to synchronize. I can certainly imagine a Tesla club having great fun with this
Is that the light board they strapped to the helicopter in Independence Day? Aliens didn’t like that…
Kinda neat
WTF is that thing?
