Fucking hell. My wife and I wanted to plan our next hiking trip and go to Banff, then started reading about the grizzly threat. It seemed real, and there are so many beautiful places to go, so we dropped it.
Then, about a week ago, a guy in the gym at work is telling me about his trip to Banff where they took their kids along too. I started thinking maybe we should go for it. Now I read this awful news. Suddenly it once more seems like a bad idea.
My understanding is that he’s completely unrelated to all of it and was misidentified as someone else. Says he has debit cards receipts showing he was in a different state at the time.
But others dismissed the reality of far-right violence by falsely claiming members of the neo-Nazi group were actually federal agents. That included Musk, who amplified the false conspiracy that Brody was the man in the mask, then later suggested Brody was part of a “false flag situation,” in a post on X ― previously called Twitter ― that remains up today.
Very well deserved award. Her sharp focus on mRNA through many years, even without the support of academic institutions, allowed her to achieve the breakthroughs needed to develop the new gen of vaccines. Per the NYT article:
But for many years her career at the University of Pennsylvania was fragile. She migrated from lab to lab, relying on one senior scientist after another to take her in. She never made more than $60,000 a year. Dr. Kariko’s struggles to stay afloat in academia have a familiar ring to scientists. She needed grants to pursue ideas that seemed wild and fanciful. She did not get them, even as more mundane research was rewarded.
If people are watching what is going on within Tesla right now, they are releasing a majorly redesigned Model 3, both interior and exterior, which is now getting the attention of potential buyers. Slows down manufacturing with the retooling.
Bad call as far as numbers/estimates goes, but hopefully this will improve the "cheap car feel" meme that the Model 3 currently has.
I’m not a fan of Musk’s shenanigans, but Teslas are damned fine cars. I’m not yet seeing any indications that the traditional car makers are really catching up.
The X and S are also crap quality when compared to luxury cars in their price range. The build quality on a $80k+ Audi, BMW, or Mercedes is much higher than what you’ll get in a Tesla, and they don’t have those goofball gull wing doors that Elon insisted on and that are trash.
I was never a fan of Elon, but what turned me off from Tesla five years ago was build quality issues, not the fact that he’s a horrible person. That, and the more I learned about the company and its engineering and manufacturing, the less I trusted what they were shipping. You can learn a lot just talking to people in bars in Silicon Valley.
You are joking, surely? Their QA is terrible. Numerous documented cases of steering wheels coming off, loose trimmings inside the car or them just catching fire. Buying a tesla in 2023 is falling for marketing hype, especially considering all the alternatives from other manufacturers.
Don’t bother, everyone here just parrots the same circlejerks they saw on reddit and all the other social media. No one cares about actual owners opinions or facts or reality anymore, just the circlejerking.
Completely ignoring that any owners that don’t “hate their purchase” get downvoted and insulted and any who do get blasted with upvotes instantly purely because it fits the circlejerk.
Oh no, downvotes! Those are surely much worse than a very expensive car that is super unreliable and has panel gaps from the factory line.
You’re totally right, it’s gotta be a circlejerk. Even review websites like Consumer Reports are joining in on the circlejerk. It can’t be that the product is bad or anything like that, they must just hate Tesla to hate Tesla!
Bud come on. You can’t type comments like this and pretend half this shit isn’t in bad faith.
You people don’t all come out of the wood work when other car companies have problems. There were a couple of massive recalls over the last couple days and most people don’t even know about them because they aren’t about teslas.
If they were about teslas they’d be plastered over the front page of every social media site for weeks, and you know it.
Yes, because you liking your own car that doesn’t have issues doesn’t negate all the issues Tesla has. They have shit QA and build quality, literally spend 30 seconds on Google.
The irony is you people think it has to do with Musk, the main reason you bought it, it doesn’t. The product is shit.
Lot of bad faith here. Tons of people like their car. It’s absolutely a massive circlejerk. No one is claiming they’re perfect. There is a concept you should check out called “nuance” that social media is destroying, maybe consider giving it a shot.
The last paragraph is just pure trolling garbage, not even going to bother.
I’m assuming at this point you’re just getting off on trolling, but I urge you to actually look up what a circlejerk is. Some people can not like a car and it still doesn’t look or present itself the way this circlejerk always does. The amount of goal post shifting, blatant misinformation, and lying that goes on in these discussions is insane but no one cares because… It’s a circlejerk.
Owner here, what they’re saying is true (perhaps not the fire part, that’s really overblown). Those parroting Tesla as the height of car engineering are blowing smoke out their ass.
Every Tesla I’ve had the ‘pleasure’ of either driving or being a passenger in had massive panel gaps and issues with the interior. I don’t dislike Tesla because of Musk, I dislike them because they have very poor QA for their price.
When did you buy your model Y? Near it’s release, or relatively recently?
My two of my co workers had some early model 3s and they were awful fit and finish, not to mention the general “cheap car with leather” feel. Modern ones (a friend has one) should be fine, but it shouldn’t take 5 years for QC issues to get under control. Hopefully the new 3 is like the new S and isn’t a nightmare on launch.
Polestars are ok, though, but they haven’t quite caught up with Teslas yet. The new Hyundais are actually better than Polestars, why didn’t you bring them up? Is it because they’re not made in China?
Well, Polestars are made in China. Just because their brands aren’t massive with marketing in the US doesn’t mean they aren’t good. BYD is by sheer numbers the largest producer of electric vehicles in the world. And they’re regarded as quality and durable vehicles that most reviewers think will take the European market by storm soon since they just installed themselves there. The Seal is considered superior to the Tesla 3 and it’s cheaper. Tesla actually pays to them to use their batteries in Asia. And they provide the platform for Toyota. Again, just because you don’t know about it doesn’t mean it’s not true. Read the room, there’s a reason you’re being downvoted. And it’s not Tesla or Elon hate, you just don’t know enough about the EV market and said something false.
Turns out the real tolerance problem at Tesla wasn't with the body panels but with the race of it's non white workers. Elon Musk should be shamed out of public life.
