Tesla Is Looking to Hire a Team to Remotely Control Its 'Self-Driving' Robotaxis
  • I tend to think half of it is bots judging by the pattern of what gets said on the mirad of topics touching the companies he runs.

    Then the way they rabidly pounce on anything like the water deluge system at starbase causing massive pollution that wasn't true, then the court basically reaffirms everything SpaceX said happens and denys an injunction to stop it's use and they will still forever hate it, is quite telling of their hatred or ignorance.

  • 'You deceived millions of us!': Trump fans tell him they're outraged over Navy pick
  • He is probably an anti-oceaner who thinks we should drain the ocean to prevent drownings.

    He just happens to know these nice out of town people with fusion reactors that can float in the air and suck it all up for us to keep us safe.

  • Gap between minimum wage and 'living wage' rising across B.C.
  • It may be a problem, but it also alleviates a lot of the problems of having to have a group continually decide on a number on good and bad years which would become highly political. Even if it was a non partisan group, partisans have their way of fucking with that kind of thing anyway. Then you get a bad government and or group to just start saying 0% year after year.

    A mostly predicable set value based off another value is less likely to get messed with, even if it has its own problem.

  • Trump’s promise to loosen crypto regulations may be boon for extremist groups
  • Lots of companies (edit or parts of their products) have pulled out of the USA due to the lack of clarity in crypto rules. Many have been served with wells notices with the SEC claiming their breaking laws around securities, forcing settlements or making companies fight to stand up for not being a security. The ETFs took years to get approved, and it really only happened because a judge told the SEC to fuck off this year.

    The US has been crippling the US crypto industry for years. Whatever you see is happening in spite of that.

    Fuck Trump, but crypto regs are fucked in the US. Also fuck any crypto person who voted for Trump because of this. Even if he does what he says here, it's not worth it

    Just yesterday an appeals judge finally ruled that a smart contract without admin keys (immutable code) is not property, while people are in jail or being jailed over writing them and being considered the owners.

    Edit: and even with the ETFs approved, the SEC still isn't allowing the providers to offer them how they want. E.g they can't stake part of the ethereum they hold to provide yield/interest even though it's baked into how these blockchains work with proof of stake.

  • X's Objection to the Onion Buying InfoWars Is a Reminder You Do Not Own Your Social Media Accounts
  • Okay... so lets say Musk wins, and the infowars handle isn't transferred.

    The Onion should then file an impersonation complaint with X and have the handle handed to them. I would assume in the auction the onion purchased the rights to the trademark InfoWars.

  • Why only cyclists should wear hi-viz in the dark? Cars can too!
  • We have daylight running laws here as well, but those lights are different than the regular headlights and weaker.

    In driving school they taught me to just put on my regular lights all the time.

    They're a lot stronger than the daylight ones and make you more visible

  • Trump reportedly plans to swiftly eject trans troops within days of inauguration
  • Whether it's trans people, gay people, or whatever, this is always going to happen to some population if the government is aware. Maybe not today, maybe not for a couple decades, but eventually. All you can do is hope to outlive it happening.

    In the future it's going to be about your genetic data that people have been freely sharing.

    Volkswagen to halt ID.4 production in the US following nearly 100,000 vehicle recall

    >The company’s letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) stated the door handles could allow water to enter the circuit board assembly, which may lead to the doors opening unexpectedly.

    >According to Volkswagen, the production halt could last until the beginning of next year as it works to resolve the issue.

    2024 Tesla Model 3 AWD Qualifies for $7500 USD EV Credit again.

    It doesn't say what was changed but that makes it a great price again.

    It also really messes up the pricing between the 3 RWD which doesn't qualify and the AWD that does since it's only a 1k difference now. I wonder if we'll see them lower the RWD or potentially raise the AWD price?

    Thoughts on range extenders for commuter cars?

    So both Rivian and Tesla have or say they are going to have range extenders for their trucks, but in both cases even if they are removable and rentable they are huge as trucks are huge. In teslas case it seems to be a permanent change though.

    What about commuter cars though?

    One thing we really need is cheaper in city commuters and those don't need a long range. That brings costs down and gets more people into EVs, but those will get relegated to 2nd cars in many cases.

    If those commuter cars could go to a shop and get an extender added in the trunk though that would make them much more capable of longer trips as well while keeping costs down.

    If the battery rental is similar or less to renting a car for the same period then people would opt to use their own car for the longer trip and all the personal comforts that provides.

    The batteries would be much smaller as well for a smaller vehicle.

    Why dont the financial services join the Tesla strike to end things?

    I've been following the strike and sympathy strike happening against Tesla and the similarities to what happened with Toys R Us, and I'm left wondering why the financial sector in Sweden hasn't stepped in by now?

    This has spread to multiple countries now, so it's not like this is day 1 of the strike.

    Do they consider themselves some sort of thermonuclear option and would rather not get involved unless necessary for some reason?

    If my understanding is right, they're what forced Toys R Us to sign an agreement since they couldn't effectively do anything like payroll anymore?

    It seems like the logical next step to me at this point unless I don't understand something about how the sympathy strikes work there?
