Even without the Nazi in charge, Tesla has poor quality control. They wanted to put the biggest monitor ever in a vehicle so they chose non-automotive grade that yellows. They designed a trunk that leaks water because it never rains or something. They designed doors such that if you slam the door hard, the door card falls off. They designed a pedal and trim such that the pedal could get stuck under trim and cause unintentional acceleration. They designed a truck using an aluminum frame instead of steel. Oh and then they chose a grade of stainless steel that has more issues than the delorean. Oh, and they took out lidar sensors and somehow still think they’ll achieve level 5 self driving. Anything safety critical needs a redundancy.

Maybe I’m old, but I avoid AI specifically because I’ve seen the quality of code out there (not to say my quality is amazing), and if AI learned from that…. Well

Vibe coder?

Someone mowed their catnip?

Oh no you found out. Time for you to move on

No, don’t so that. Without cancelling, it looks intentional.

Call uber, but put traffic cones everywhere. Cancel because it can’t make it. Call tow truck to report stuck Tesla.

I’m waiting for Musk to have to sell his stock.

It’s a major supporter for Musk, allowing him to fund things via loans against stock. Not sure how much SpaceX pays Musk (I don’t think it’s a public company?)

I don’t know much about boring

Office of SpaceX, Hitler, and asshattery?

I’m going to have to disagree with you there. I might have agreed with you during the last American presidency, but at this point Tesla is a catalyst for fascism.

What? Majority in Congress support this chucklefuck

I live in the US and I strongly object to microwaving water. But I am also /really/ into tea so I avoid tea bags as much as possible.

Part of the cultural difference is that US is largely 110 and the UK is 220. It’s faster and easier to use an electric kettle. In the US, the microwave heats up the water “faster” vs the stove or an electric kettle

Two of your cats look like they forgot to wear clothes

Ah, I generally avoid the big subreddits because they are low quality.

What subreddits did you visit where discussion is with bots?

I still use Reddit every now and again for aviation and a mobile game (where there is an official company presence). Most of the discourse is genuine.

Now some of the more general subreddits, that’s garbage.

I get my news and politics from Lemmy now and, if anything, the experience is better. In fact, I seem to be more up to date on Canadian news.

Sorry, should we switch to Fox News because there isn’t a pay wall?

Hornet, Journey, Charger. That’s it. Hornet is a piece of cheap, charger has ads. Journey…?

I don’t know anything about system 76, but I don’t have the graphics card upgrade on my FW16. Lots of games I can’t play

Okay that makes sense. I wondered why the person I replied to specified metal.

I guess I had a bad recollection of Tesla adding plating to the bottom of their vehicle because (to my bad recollection), general non-Metallic road debris was piercing the battery compartment

I thought lithium battery fires were caused by thermal runaway. Does piercing a lithium ion battery cause thermal runaway?
