Sadly the layoff that we all were waiting for with baited breath did not transpire.... πŸ₯Ή.

Musk is fighting Tesla in court for 56 billion in compensation

Don't forget that the Cybertruck's pedals are falling apart.

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Are you serious?

[–] snooggums@midwest.social 25 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They didn't want to actually secure the pad to the pedal for whatever stupid rwason so it is a slipon that can slip up and catch while accelerating. .

So basically the only way it can fail is the worst possible way.

Criminal negligence. You could not pay me to drive a Tesla. The bicycle that I assembled as a kid from varied junkyard parts was more structurally sound.

Holy fucking shit, you have got to be kidding. Well at least Elon knows more about manufacturing than anyone else in the planet. as per himself here.

So the company that can't make enough cars and can't release their new products on schedule is reducing their workforce.

Great that shareholder interests creates such sustainable and responsible companies /s

They can make enough cars now. That’s the problem.
