the nightfly is even more pristinely engineered than aja so you should upgrade to that

also you have to wear this hat when you demo it:

elon’s entire persona is just unironically promising all the same stuff from I.G.Y. 65 years later

They absolutely are blocking it. Even if you don’t believe the Verge for some reason, surely they would have corrected the error when reported in the Detroit press:

or responded when Ford started making fun of them for it:

Seventy percent of our Ford customers in the U.S. are Apple customers. Why would I go to an Apple customer and say ‘good luck!’

so one of the issues with self driving is someone might decide to just stand in front of your car and block you and you basically can't do anything about it. it would be illegal to make a self driving car that deliberately runs over people or plays chicken with their knees, obviously. so what if they made a self driving car that nobody is going to want to stand in front of? it'll probably stop, but are you sure you want to take that chance?

in states where it’s legal to run over protestors, you can simply press a button on the touchscreen to resume driving

i am going to be a huge rear end in a top hat and say that a person/household that can afford to buy a tesla or equivalent car can do a lifestyle change that is to move to a place that is well serviced by public transit or is close enough to their job
that they do not even need transit beyond an ebike/scooter

“every dollar spent on a tesla should have instead been spent on gentrification” is not the positive force for change you’re imagining

Yaccarino also said that contrary to Musk’s previous suggestions that Twitter was in danger of bankruptcy, things had bounced back. “From an operating cash flow perspective, we are just about break-even,” she said, and projected that the company would be profitable early next year.

lmao, tremendous dodge

“by early next year, we’ll no longer be losing money on salaries and servers” does not even begin to cover their crushing debt service (which is a financing cash flow)

I'd understand if Judge McCormick just immediately ruled against Musk in any case by default at this point

she is presumably already sitting on a ruling at this point regarding whether elon gets to keep his $55 billion pay package, which could be fun
