Not ready for prime time: robo taxis in SF

4D chess motherfuckas. Biden is stacking the deck so he can become mayor of a medium sized town in 5 years. Comer should look into this now that the corruption investigation dwindled so hilariously.

Sig worthy

Part of the attraction to the Yotas is that offroad applications prioritize old and well tested designs. Electric cars are a tech appliance, hard to argue they don’t need updating occasionally in...

Apparently cybertruck has defective turn signals: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1KrhnDuZeB/?igsh=MTdlMjRlYjZlMQ==

^ lol.

Ya ‘Xitter’ seems to be the term of choice I’ve been seeing. Thanks to Xi Zinping, everyone seems to know how to pronounce it correctly so we’ve got that going for us.

So in a thread where TRG talked shit about Musk since 2016, xyz now thinks the shit talking is because Musk recently kinda went conservatard? Do we need to explain calendars to him?

For better or worse, there’s a lot of evidence that Elon himself pushes his vision on some big items or decisions at Tesla. For example, the somewhat weird and risky strategy for self driving tech...

That would require intelligence and self awareness, which are in short supply in that demographic

Fuck around and Find out, Sweden Style https://newrepublic.com/post/177114/musk-sweden-tesla-sympathy-strikes

That’s what I have TRG for. It’s the internet, but curated!1!

Was camping in Santa Cruz forest this weekend, saw a cybertruck passing by on the potholed road. It was kinda weird and almost cinematic to see something with that angular design silently going thru...

The SBF debacle and Lewis’ cringeworthy book, on top of his truly cringey hosting of...

We had a thread devoted to this wwII drugs topic. Should we withdraw your University of TGR degree?

What about reading comprehension?

It’s complicated, but discussing it fits into this thread’s topic. Black Rifle’s founders appear to be straightforward ammosexuals that had a marketing focus on the 2nd amendment. So they were...

Imagine working at a Musky company right now.

TGRz will be the only space left standing !! ;)

Totally. I got this Hertz rental many times.

So pretty much all topics?

When I was in college (engineering, physics etc) I drank the koolaid on space exploration having many spinoff benefits. But yeah as I got older and understood better the PR bullshit behind that, I’m...

Parallels to Glenn Greenwald—both are mentioned here: https://endtalk.substack.com/p/greenwald-off-the-deep-end?s=w

I think it’s not about $$ per se. Initially there’s the rush of how edgy it is...

Speaking of Twitter:

Incorrect. The term Latinx was invented within the Latino/Latina queer community, because they were trying to move away from the highly gendered aspects of their language. This is increasingly a WW...

Let’s run with that a bit: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2022/12/is-elon-musk-conservative-donald-trump.html

What a clown.

Dude, Honeycommb is marketing itself as the better alternative to Tribe!! Plus Lady Gaga uses HC.

Maybe the entire world can just get on Slack.

What an idiot. Is he going full Q Tard? https://www.thedailybeast.com/elon-musk-amplifies-baseless-conspiracy-theory-in-pelosi-attack

And pillows. Don’t forget the pillows.

Floridians.

Look the psychology is not hard here. Rivian has their pickup on the market, good reviews, and a pretty impressive fording depth. Mr Butthurt Vaporware’s Cybertruck keeps blowing...

Came here to post that lol. You gotta love how Musk inverts the conventional wisdom of successful companies to ‘under-promise and over-deliver’.

Good video thx. Naturally the decision to save cost by dropping the radar was discussed, but he also provided data that answered the question I’ve had for a while: if you take into account...

Taking it in the shorts, indeed.

And yet they like to pretend the other side ‘politicizes everything’.

‘Unlimited’ 5G at $35/mo has been enough for me, but I am sorta starlink curious since I’m often in low cellular signal areas. Can I pay in dogecoin?

So you guys are paying $135/month for #vanlife internet?

Looks like he’s doubling down on his ‘bots’ fake excuse to not buy twitter.

Sad that he wasn’t able to invent a different excuse. Like ‘twitter enables pedo rings’ or something.

Hence the word ‘charade’

It’s laughable that Elon is bringing up ‘questions’ now that should’ve been part of the due diligence step. What a charade.
