this is the most devastating review of anything i’ve ever seen
Scary Whitta @garywhitta· 1d:
Imagine if your printer was also your car. That’s what owning a Tesla is like.

This is Lemmy, you don’t have to convince people not to like capitalism here, we’re already on board
We already have a noose set up for the first instance that gets greedy.
Define ‘we’. Not all of us are communists.
Skill issue
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Communists aren’t the only people that hate modern, western, late stage capitalism. Some of us are good, old fashioned, corporations-aren’t-people folks who believe that the rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness shouldn’t be infringed by the mantra of “maximizing profits for our shareholders”.
Don’t have to be communist to hate modern companies.
Ha! You know you are on Lemmy when “not all of us are Communists” gets pummelled by downvotes.
Apparently most are!
At least 15 people are!
Lol Lemmy’s Klepto Keyboard Kommunists are an endless source of misguided entertainment.

Man, I wish I were this clever. 🏅
plot twist: It’s a Brother monochrome laser printer.

Admittedly a scathing burn, but in my experience not at all the same. I have had so many printers with connection issues, overpriced ink that dries up, and constant mechanical jams that I’ve sworn off ever owning a printer again and made my department paperless. But all I had to do for my Tesla is connect it to wifi, and every few weeks a no-hassle software update delivers some useful new features. I’ve never met a printer that improved with time.
I don’t understand the Tesla hate. I think people have read bad headlines and assumed they were true. I’ve had mine for 2.5 years and still haven’t even had to do more than put in washer fluid and charge at home. I would hate having to go back to oil changes and gas stations.

How about the shit quality control (another ref) for starters, not to mention the broken promises (approaching false advertisement at this point). Oh and don’t forget the battery fires (oh, but don’t worry!! Phony Stark told us that only 0.01% of teslas have ever caught fire. Only 200+ times using goodcarbadcar, phew!!! )
Your singular anecdote about having no issues is certainly indicative of the actual situation, yep must just be bad headlines
Do you think that every time a gas car gets on fire it makes it to the headlines? Have you heard about selection bias?

It burns much slower, not faster. That’s why it can burn for so long. And it has to be put differently. It’s like saying a grease fire is harder to put out because you can’t pour water on it. You can easily put it out by covering it, tho, same as battery fires.

Ignites faster? A cigarette or just a static spark can Ignite gas fumes, you need to do pretty catastrophic damage to a pack for it to Ignite…
Agreed it’s nothing like owning a printer. You don’t need to pay for the premium connectivity you can just use Bluetooth on your phone like any OTHER car. Full self driving subscription? Optional. Or you could buy the full thing out right.
Now here is where it gets like a printer. If you can’t afford the monthly payment so you lease endlessly and never own the car. Tesla makes leaving very easy and tries very hard to incentive you to renew your lease. BUT again this is the same with any other car. Just don’t lease.
