Went on a trip recently and we always stop by a McDonald’s for breakfast and holy crap, a freaking hash brown was almost three bucks.
I get having to pay workers more but that’s just some bullshit price gouging there because there’s no way in hell what workers are still there are getting paid that much better in order to justify a the dollar hash brown.
I feel really bad for that one guy who thought it was cool as a concept, put in a downpayment, waited for years, got the financing together while watching Elmo’s mask melting off the whole time and just thinking “I just want the truck, and then I’ll never buy another tesla again”. They get constant price increases and make them all just to see it through, and then . . . They get it. And it’s - well, what it is. And they’re totally screwed and besmirched. That one hypothetical guy I feel bad for.
I don’t. It looked stupid even in concept and utterly failed the window test. And that was in 2019, after the pedophile tweet, so his true colours were starting to show.
Tesla just issued a recall for over 11,000 Cybertrucks over a windshield wiper issue. The recall includes all model year 2024 Cybertruck vehicles manufactured from Nov. 13, 2023, to June 6, 2024, which is pretty much all of them given that the Cybertruck deliveries started in Nov. 2023.
Elon earning that BILLIONS of dollars. 💁🏽 Sir, I salute you. The largest grift ever. I don’t feel bad for a single person that lost money.
I was just thinking the OP article’s author missed an opportunity to mention that for this quality of product delivery, Musky believes he is worthy of a $44.9B payday.
Like you can’t even be mad at this point. He ripped them off to their face and they said YES! This should be the death nail in the cryptobro era but its not.
One can be mad for this way he increases his power to scam even more people and disrupt meaningful things by hyperlooping public transportation and teslaing EVs’ reputation.
All of his work has been grifts from the OG X to PayPal and beyond. He just seemed enigmatic or inspired to some people for a time, enough that kool-aid was drunk. (South Africans do have a way of mesmerizing people though, must be the accent.)
That some good technology happened to pop out of it along the way had less to do with him, and more the engineers tasked with making it happen.
I don’t know about South Africans, but he definitely mesmerized Peter Thiel, who has spent years crushing on him. And I am convinced it’s not a platonic crush, or at least didn’t start out that way.
If Trump is going to challenge Biden to a mental coherency test, why doesn’t Biden challenge Trump to a bicycle race or a 2k run? After all, Trump has declared himself the healthiest President in history. (But a race like that would have good possibility of causing Trump a heart attack… which would of course be an unfortunate outcome).
Having worked in school finance in a prior life, I can tell you the biggest problem with money getting redirected to these schools is that they can deny students. So public schools lose funding and have to absorb all of the expensive SPED students.
I don’t know if I would call this ruling a mistake since I’m not an expert in matters of standing, but I regret that the court will not act against a serious threat to free speech. Members of both parties have made statements directed at social media companies which I consider well over the line between a request and a threat.
They’ll just flash the computer to default to be 4th gear upon signal loss instead of 1st gear. Danger problem averted. Cost is only 30 minutes of labor.
What our intrepid reporter is failing to account for is that facts don’t matter; reality doesn’t matter. Chaos is All and All is Trump.
Now trumpers put on your orange makeup and Depends™ and get out there and grift some more for trump. Murica! Yaahhrhh!
GOP “Classic”, meet me over at camera three.
. . . Hoo boy. Y’all done fucked up fierce. You got two options: use the shady SuperPACs to create a shadow RNC and go it alone or . . . (slides pistol to the center of the table) . . .
