In addition to the Cybercab, Musk also announced plans to produce an autonomous, electric Robovan that can carry up to 20 people, or be used to transport goods. He said it will “solve for high density,” transporting a sports team, for example.
ah yes, the riddle of the streets being clogged with sports team transportation vehicles.
this guy has a blindspot for busses.
Not a blindspot but a seething hatred
He directly said that mass transit, quote, “SUCKED!” because scary poor with a knife.
I’m poor and always carry a knife and take public transit semi frequently, good to know I’m king bazinga’s nightmare.
I mostly walk everywhere and don’t carry a knife, I need to starting upping my game
Knives are very useful general purpose tools to have on hand.
Seeing a gymnasium full of grieving parents and your heart sinks because you assume there’s been another school shooting only to find out its because the varsity football’s Robovan decided to autonomously crash into a fuel depot.
It has no interior controls, even for an emergency, so you can imagine what is very likely happen next.
Transporting sports teams? In that thing? It takes like four or five of the giant charter buses to move a college football team from the hotel to the stadium. No way you can fit 20 football players comfortably in a robovan, not mention the mountains of equipment they bring with them. It would legit take 20 of those vans to do the job, which in Leon’s mind, will solve for high density.
Speaking of sports, what happened to the Dugout line, or whatever the fuck dorks plan for moving fans from Echo Park to Dodger Stadium, which is not really that far of a jaunt
Starting to realize the emperor is naked
It’s just a stock company. They could announce they were going to stop producing anything and I’m pretty sure the stock would continue to be traded
like… despite Tesla’s repeated failures in this department, actually building cars isn’t the hard part of solving autonomy
50 “prototype” cars that don’t work and no plan, just “2 more years bro trust me bro”
That’s the most damning part IMO. People caught on to his infinite 2 years away self driving, so he shifted a bit and now a thing that is dependent on self driving is 2 years away. He lies like a child.
They move too many people, 20 people is basically collectivist communist nonsense. Make it like a luxury mobile room for one person and put like a tv in it and they’ll love it

I honestly imagine there’s a significant part of the finance bro archetype that would probably go woaw just like sonic and give them money so … possibly?
games started as pretty blatant and obvious pro-environmentalist messaging, considering how later stages showed industrialized hellscapes that put in place where the enslaved roboticized animals toil away.
But that’d fly over the head of bazingas as always, because literary analysis is bunk because it isn’t le STEM.
Sonic leads a band of in one of the late 90s cartoons.
Sally Acorn was too great a character to ever have meaningful presence in the games.
hot tub
I can see the LinkedIn posts now. “I banged out so many computer tasks in my hot tub digital nomad mobile. Traffic used to be my biggest productivity sink, thanks Elon!”

Bizarre. Who are these people who believed in Tesla through the last dozen “full self driving in two years” announcements, and yet finally saw through it for this?
Something about how the market can’t stay irrational longer than something… It’s been a long time since gme
Still too many buy into this ting
Sometimes it seems like the most controversial thing I say to libs is that fully autonomous self driving doesn’t exist.

I’ve argued the same with my neighbors and coworkers back in CA for decades and it was always just a year or two away, and that I was the irrational one.
Fully autonomous self driving vehicles do exist, the Vancouver skytrain has been running them since the 80’s.
Fully autonomous self driving vehicles without tracks, grade separation, or platform screen doors running on the public roads mixing with cars, pedestrians, and velocipedestrians don’t exist.

It’s the same with the Mars grift, “it’s five years away, trust me!”
Remember “all of you will be using AR/VR headsets in mandatory teleconferencing in a few years, better get in on the ground floor” proselytizing? I sure do.
Remember “you better start buying internet funny money/ugly monkey jpegs because that’s the future of finance” proselytizing? I sure do.
After the event, analysts at Jeffries published a note titled “We, underwhelmed.”
this had me laughing
Robotaxi? Does Tesla do anything at this point except copy stuff that Chinese companies have been doing for years?
Well, I’m sure the Tesla version will cost 10x as much and have a triple digit bodycount in the first month.
Sounds like it went like a wet fart… which is one of the sound board options on the bazingamobiles as factory standard.
The only surprise was a Robovan? What did Elon expect? Rookie mistake. He needed to also introduce the…
- RoboHeli
- RoboPlane
- RoboRidingMower
- RoboCycle
- RoboEDM
- RoboRobo
- Etc
RoboDurex… Dont ask how just go with it
Buy the dip

And the crowd goes MILD
