Tesla solar panels can't go catch firetrucks, so they have to bring the firetrucks to them.

legitimately good question because it is weird that dumb poo poo like that isn't there yet. someone faux earnestly twest it @ elon it seems like a epic ftw !! sideshow he'd love to tell bazingas about in order to shore up the future hollow promises pile

they did decide to use the :worship: infallible camera :worship: instead of an industry standard sensor for the automatic rain detection tho and apparently that's poo poo (wow shocker lol)

He throws in solar heating for zero extra money and still gets sued by walmart for daring to go against big oil.

Next week's headlines include tragic DnB induced deaths when the wiper motors catch fire and light up entire teslas because the "Add Elon's bright ideas to the next update" team forgot to include an upper bound on wiper speed, and catastrophic failure of Tesla's infrastructure when every Tesla tries to synchronize their turn signals with every other Tesla at once.

Yeah, I really like learning about stuff from his show. Most of his jokes are just WAY WAY WAY oversold and I don't laugh that often, but it's super informative on a lot of issues that don't get a ton of coverage in other areas.

I know it's pennies for the dollar in the category of "things that annoy you about your country" but the fact that a German doctor can prescribe you with loving homeopathic Medication is disgraceful.

When miss combat theory (who works at a hospital laboratory) had to go to the doctor for intensive nerve pain and he tried talking her into homeopathic Medication (because doctors earn a lot more money when they prescribe you with that crap) she almost beat the poo poo out of the old fart.
