Oh I hope it holds 14 people and he does the thing, the thing!

The thing that Hitler did where he shot himself in the head? I'm on board with that

[–] zifnab25@hexbear.net 30 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Elon Musk is high on my list of dudes who ice themselves as soon as they find out they're not billionaires anymore

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 35 points 7 months ago

Why wait?

Elon if you're reading this, you won't do it, no balls

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 16 points 7 months ago

shitler, the absolute madman, was ready to kill himself at the drop of a hat when he didn't get what he wanted. I sincerely hope muskoid takes a leaf outta his book 🫡

Then Hitler, waving his pistol wildly, continued, "I know this comes as a shock to you, but someone must take the first step and someone must make it easy for you to take that step. Everyone must accept the lot he has been assigned. If you do not, you forfeit your right to live. You'll have to struggle with me and suceed with me, or die with me if this thing goes wrong. I have four bullets in my pistol--three for my compatriots and the last one for me."

At that, he pointed the gun at his temple. Thereupon, Kahr said to Hitler, "You can hold me against my will, you can have me shot, you can even shoot me yourself. To die or not to die is not important."

In a near future press conference - Elon is angry and he finally goes ballistic.

"Listen and understand. The car is automated. It is automated. How many times must I say this. It is automated! For quality control the car is monitored by the Tesla Monitoring Center in Bangalore."

A reporter yells out " 'Monitoring' includes driving, right?"

"That is a lie! You little ffff—" and somehow Elon gets himself not to call the reporter a "fucker". But he starts storming off the stage like a Stormtrooper and with his back is to the reporters he's yells "It is automated!"

---

Later in the middle of the night Tesla issues a terse press release saying little more than: "For quality control the car is monitored by the Tesla Monitoring Center in Bangalore. Such control may include navigation management and adjustments..."

When you change the definition of person, anything can be automated!

Elon is the type to invent warhammer 40k servitors then give them even more dehumanising name(TM)

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 42 points 7 months ago

I can't wait for the nazi robot taxis.

This sucks.

[–] Coolkidbozzy@hexbear.net 28 points 7 months ago

he unveils new shit years before it turns out to be a fuck-up or a lie (rooftop solar tiles, tesla semi, cybertruck, eventually the tesla bot, hyperloop, etc)

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 26 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What if we could link together the robo-taxis and place them on lines running at critical junctions?

[–] newerAccountWhoDis@hexbear.net 2 points 7 months ago

I dunno sounds like socialism to me

[–] deforestgump@hexbear.net 24 points 7 months ago

Delamain is en route to help you dispose of this body.

[–] Emanuel 19 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is this…

No, it couldn't be…

Is this a dogwhistle?

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 11 points 7 months ago

7/10

As a bit.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 18 points 7 months ago

Is there a record of every dogwhistle this sad chud has done? Would it take a whole datacenter to store such a list?

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 8 points 7 months ago

Is that an apology, Mr. Musk?

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 16 points 7 months ago

Took a lot of restraint to not call it the robotaxi X or something insufferable like that.

Side note, doing the Will Menaker bit of calling the Tesla Model X the "Tesla Model ten" really annoys Elon stans. "Well there's a model 3, I assume the model 10 is 7 better?". So far a 1 out of 1 success rate. Will continue doing so when interacting with people who drive the model 10.

Elon Musk says Tesla will unveil its robotaxi on Aug. 8; shares pop

  • Tesla will reveal its robotaxi product on Aug. 8, CEO Elon Musk said in a social media post on X.

  • Musk has spoken about the robotaxi project for years, and it could represent a major new business for the carmaker as investors grow wary of the company during a period of slowing growth.

[...]

In 2015, Elon Musk told shareholders that Tesla's cars would achieve "full autonomy" within three years. In 2016, he said Tesla would able to send one of its cars on a cross-country drive without requiring any human intervention by the end of the following year.

Tesla still has yet to deliver a robotaxi, autonomous vehicle or technology that can turn its cars into "level 3" automated vehicles. However, Tesla offers advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), including a standard Autopilot option or premium Full Self-Driving "FSD" option, the latter of which costs $199 per month for U.S. subscribers or $12,000 upfront.

In a push for end-of-quarter sales, Musk recently mandated that all sales and service staff install and demo FSD for customers before handing over the keys. He wrote in an email to employees, "Almost no one actually realizes how well (supervised) FSD actually works. I know this will slow down the delivery process, but it is nonetheless a hard requirement."

Despite its name, Tesla's premium option requires a human driver at the wheel, ready to steer or brake at any moment.

Looking into it

[–] 420stalin69@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

This would require autonomous AI driving which categorically does not exist.
