Elon Musk

three car fires = Armageddon for the globe's water supply

Honestly shocked that li-ion fires haven't already caused devastating problems. But now we have huge concentrations of them moving around at high speed.

clearly the solution is to push every accident victim and their vehicle to the bottom of the ocean

xp most RVs use the LiFePo4 formula without cobalt, which is much safer

sounds fun!

had to share this, how is this thing legal?

lotta people asking about the loop "how do you get out of the tesla in an emergency when the tunnel is so narrow" without understanding that it's actually impossible to leave the backseat of a tesla in an emergency even on a regular road pic.twitter.com/1kS13oeg1I

The War on Cars podcast did a blow-by-blow breakdown of that terrible gushing news segment on the tunnel. While Twitter might offer better zings, it was still good for a deep dive on exactly how dumb and overhyped this thing is.

He should dig an emergency failsafe tunnel that runs parallel to the first one. And then a third one as well, just to be safe. And then more and more until he's hollowed out the earth and we get a giant one of these:

dude the earth is already hollow

the earth is thicc

So, yeah, he's hosting SNL.

People on here hate Elon Musk because he has unbundled decarbonization from pious attitudes about decarbonization. https://t.co/fHrmENSHZe

a tweet that will make you want to throw your device out the window.

musk seems to be a true bipartisan hit. lots of libs that love him because of technocracy and internet-nerd-right think he's epic

People who are mad about Elon Musk hosting SNL need to understand that hosting SNL is *not* an endorsement, for example Adolf Hitler hosted SNL in 1938

It is actually not hard to think that the success of Tesla (which has to do with a lot of people not named Elon Musk in addition to Elon Musk) is a very good thing for the environment and the future while also think that Elon Musk, the person himself, seems like a big asshole, I don't see why this is supposed to set up some kind of Captain-Kirk-destroying-the-computer logical doom loop

It is actually not hard to think that the success of Tesla (which has to do with a lot of people not named Elon Musk in addition to Elon Musk) is a very good thing for the environment and the future

it's also not hard to not think this at all

I still find it incredible that apparently a Tesla's back doors can't be easily opened if the power is cut off. Or, one presumes, if the power is off and the car is on fire.

lol yeah it is easy to think that, prob why so many people do

xp woah, let's not write the snl sketches for them

whoa

Elon Musk is one of the biggest obstacles to the acceptance of a post-personal-car world, which is what we really need more than anything. Don't think he gives a shit about climate change, electric cars are just the new thing, if this were the 30s he'd be selling asbestos and CFCs.

have we done Elon’s bro kimbal yet?

If Elon and his brother had a baby (get working on that tech, Elon), he might look like Dwight Yoakam:

hahahaha no

Space X has pulled off some pretty wild shit but Musk comes off like a total choad. I kind of hope they get the rockets to Mars working as there is a bunch of mf'ers I would like to get sent off the Earth as soon as possible.

go to mars bitch

wrong thread but it probably works anywhere

lol

Musk is really the Platonic ideal of a choad, for me.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/tesla-makes-more-money-trading-bitcoin-than-selling-cars-11619517615

$101mn in Bitcoin trading, $500mn in selling emissions credits and -$77mn in actually selling cars.

idk what this guy is talking about all the time its a little bit inside baseball but he seems to be alleging that theres no evidence that tesla has actually sold all those credits

After some looking into China NEV program. Since there is speculation $tsla got paid by VW in China to the tune of 100s of millions in Q1.

Again, there are no receipts and all bound by confidentiality agreement. There was reuters report but no comment by either.
Let's look.

— Mindful Capitalist (aka socialist) (@HappiestYogi) April 28, 2021

Where tesla has been making a packet in credits is Europe, they sell them to other car makers who can’t make their emissions targets, whatever else you say about tesla, getting your competitors to subsidise your products is a pretty good trick whilst it lasts.

people who say he's doing good things for the environment

in that thread, the same moronic argument I've seen used to justify NFTs, it must have gone out in a crypto newsletter or something
