Elon Musk

That lawyer's thread is worth reading, if one is able or so inclined.

I was driving my son and two other 8 yos around this weekend and they were talking about Teslas non-stop.

how do they feel about roblox?

They program their own obbys

is it a cybertruck?

Yes

Looks like Grimes is suing to gain access to her children (might have been hinted at in the Grimes thread a week or two ago, I forget)

Having kids entirely via IVF and surrogacy seems like something a man with a tiny dick would do.

XP I imagine 44 billion could have bought/engineered him an amazing penis.

A cyberpenis, even.

But doing so would entail admitting his own shortcomings.

Let's just say anyone who has sex with him has to have a 10 micron tolerance

BAM

I’m still trying to process that a man who has 10 kids may still be a virgin.

That NBC news article misleads the right wing site to mean almost the opposite of what it says.

Yeah, that was weird

suspended for using the recent stripping-out of headlines from news stories to call elon a pedo (he can dish it out but he can't take it, you will be startled to learn)

Elon Musk acted like a 'little baby' and was 'almost in tears' on Tesla's 'terrible' earnings call, analyst says https://t.co/aQgEPRK8P0

— Insider Business (@BusinessInsider) October 22, 2023

lol the investors are mad at Musk because he said this:

Musk suggested at one point on the call that he was delaying the factory in light of rising interest rates, which make borrowing more expensive. "If interest rates remain high or if they go even higher, it's that much harder for people to buy the car. They simply can't afford it," Musk said, pointing to the impact on monthly car loan payments.

He created company value based on pure fiction in an attempt to hold the line until they could actually be profitable, and now the investors are angry he's stating fact. Kind of dug his own grave on that one

That's usually when these guys fail, when the bullshit stops.

"If interest rates remain high or if they go even higher, it's that much harder for people to buy the car. They simply can't afford it," Musk said, pointing to the impact on monthly car loan payments.

lol. the monthly payment on a new tesla is down compared to a year ago.

IMO Elon is overplaying the macro card. For anyone who wants to know whether $TSLA monthly payments are higher or lower than where they were 12-15 months ago, put into your HP12C these scenarios:

- 15 mos ago: Model Y $65K with 10% down, 3.9% auto loan rate over 60 months.…

So the price dropped 15K in the past 15 months?

of that model in the US, yes. i think that's one of the more extreme examples tbf but they've been dropping prices to juice sales all year. CW is that they should be advertising and distance themselves from their insane nazi founder instead, neither of which they do.

they get a lot of coverage in the finance and tech spaces but not the "guy just looking for a car" spaces

that and their sales model is completely different in the US than any other automotive brand. apparently they do have a store and service center in my area now but I had no clue! I just pulled up the site to see if they let you test drive a car, and every single time block is open today

It's actually kind of fucked up the EV market, as I understand it. When Tesla cut prices the biggest effect was that it dropped the bottom out of the used EV market and lots of EV drivers lost thousands in value, especially those that purchased new. Granted, I suppose anyone that pays a premium for a car, any car, understands they lose value as soon as you drive off the lot, but Tesla's desperate price slash really accelerated depreciation, hurting even those with generous loan terms.

I love getting Noted – proves that no one is free from being corrected!

This is obviously a joke meme, but there is more than a grain of truth to it. We should aspire to see things from the point of view of others.

— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) October 28, 2023

Possibly the least-asinine meme Musk has posted in his life.

Obviously a joke meme=I was just kidding, gawd, can't you take a joke?

gotta rule for musk on this one, the image is using hyperbole to make a joke... and indeed a point --community note

also his original post doesnt currently have a community note on it

i know the US is a unique country with its own exceptional culture but why the fuck does every bit of hype this clown runs for his trucks involve firing weapons at them?

Joe Rohan!

I suspect I'll never see a cybertruck out on the street

If you do, burn that fucker (if it hasn't already set fire to itself).

I rented a car for the week on Sunday. They asked me if I wanted a Tesla at no additional charge. I just said no.

big blade runner fan

Blade Runner was not a guy, it was a job that the guy in the movie had, this is like saying it's the car Taxi Driver would have driven

Which I guess it is, now that I think about it

you mean a taxi

Bladerunner vs. Taxidriver

thinking the main character of blade runner is named bladerunner really jumps out at you but the added detail that he thinks bladerunner drives drive an armored personnel carrier makes me think he maybe hasnt seen the movie, but does know it concerns the future and that its very cool

does he think that blade runner serves in the future army as a driver, cause thats not that cool, or that he just drives or "would drive" an army truck because hes such a bad ass, but idk driving an army truck thats specifically designed to carry a bunch of guys as your daily just seems kind of odd, also the cyber truck is not designed to carry a bunch of guys

Elon would not pass the Voight-Kampff
