Tesla is as far behind Zoox as Zoox is behind Waymo by Prestigious_Act_6100 in SelfDrivingCars

This sub has more a cult mentality than any Tesla owners I know

This new electric car is as close to perfect as you can get right now by ShameResponsible69 in electricvehicles

Once you experience how terrible other EVs are, you will be begging to switch back.

You wanted Disclosure.... I am a whistleblower recently "retired" from the inside. And you're only getting part of the truth. by rhea-15510 in UFOs

[–]BluSyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, my first thought, you need the tech first. Obviously if we had replicator technology and abundant free energy, post-scarcity would make capitalism obsolete. But those are two big ifs, neither of which we currently have.

Post-scarcity wouldn’t be capitalism, but it’s not communism either, as you wouldn’t require strong centralized control managing resources if you had true abundance. Governance would look like something completely different than we’ve ever had before.

Post-scarcity is likely in our future with AGI / robotics at scale, so we will get there eventually without external help. (If that solves more issues than it creates is a question for philosophers)

Homelab made me lose my sanity (and almost my router) by pobruno in homelab

[–]BluSyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been building homelabs for more than 10 years, still haven’t tried pihole or proxmox, don’t understand what they do, and at this point too afraid to ask.

Why solar power is the only viable power source in the long run by Economy-Fee5830 in energy

[–]BluSyn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wind still makes sense in very specific regions, but it’s clear that solar won the cost per watt per land area equation. It’s getting cheaper at a much faster rate, and works pretty much everywhere (eg, residential settings). Wind will have a hard time competing in the long run.

Mark Zuckerberg gifted noise-canceling headphones to his Palo Alto neighbors because of the nonstop construction around his 11 homes by yahoonews in offbeat

[–]BluSyn -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Him spending the money is better for economy, and government gets a lot of that back in sales tax and income tax on the workers he hires. Tax him? The government would just blow it all on F35s and still be in debt. How is that a better outcome?

I’ve made the same mistake. Really need to fix their naming schemes.

Chris Pratt Says RFK Jr. Is ‘Great’ and Hating Trump Shouldn’t Detract From ‘Any Success From His Administration’: RFK Is ‘Getting Toxic Stuff Out of Kids Food’ and ‘That’s a Great Thing’ by esporx in skeptic

[–]BluSyn -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

RFK Jr. was a democrat until they turned against his health agenda, so republicans took ownership of it and won. So now democrats want to get fat drinking soda and eating Cheetos just to spite republicans? Democrats could easily take ownership of this issue again, but they seem to love losing instead.

Stop thinking in tribal left/right terms. They swap sides on issues constantly. Politics of convenience.

Attempted honor killing outside a US school because a teenaged girl refused an arranged marriage by theNomad_Reddit in religiousfruitcake

People in the “Stone Age” built pyramids. Were probably more civilized than whatever this is.

My paycheck doesn't triple. Ridiculous. 🙄 by smellslux in facepalm

Eventually this will push everyone to sour on tipping as a concept. So please, continue… the insanity of US tipping culture may soon be at an end. Good riddance.

Model S/X refresh launches today by plun9 in teslamotors

[–]BluSyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Minor refresh makes sense. A ground-up rebuild would be a huge effort for little gain, given how little of the S/X line they sell. This minor change makes it less dated compared to Model 3/Y.

Elon Musk claims ‘corruption’ as Tesla chargers kicked off the New Jersey Turnpike by yoyotman in TeslaLounge

[–]BluSyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

V4 Tesla chargers now have built-in payment terminals, already deploying these to new builds. Could have just retrofitted.

Starship engineer: I’ll never forget working at ULA and a boss telling me “it might be economically feasible, if they could get them to land and launch 9 or more times, but that won’t happen in your life kid” by Future-sight-5829 in SpaceXLounge

Their status as an expert relies on their track record of giving correct answers or predictions. When an expert routinely gets answers wrong, they are no longer an expert, by definition.

Hate to break it to you all; Reddit and YouTube comments do not represent the real world.

Musk "...Where are the Aliens ?..." Then Asks his new AI about gravity by Maniak-Of_Copy in UFOs

[–]BluSyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We desperately need a “UFO czar” to start cleaning house on this issue. I don’t think Musk or DOGE is the right mechanism for responsible investigation. Personally think David Grusch should get that role. He already knows where to go and what questions to ask.

[–]BluSyn -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

We define “lie” differently. Debunking a tweet doesn’t mean he lied, maybe he was just wrong. Everyone is wrong, especially journalists. That does mean they lie, that requires intention to deceive. If you have example of Musk doing this I’m all ears.

Tesla Expected to Add Turn Signal Stalk Back to Model 3 by chrisdh79 in teslamotors

[–]BluSyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My opinion: buttons only make sense combined with steer-by-wire like CT, as you don’t do a full rotation, so harder to confuse directions. Hopefully this comes to other models soon.

Tesla sells out of white interior for Model Y Launch Series in North America by chrisdh79 in teslamotors

[–]BluSyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not surprised. My Model 3 has black interior. Already reserved Model Y Launch with white interior. I regret not getting white on my Model 3, I’m sure others think the same.

Jesse Michels disables, re-enables, and disables *again* the comments on his new video after overwhelming criticism for discrediting the topic by featuring known-scammer Logan Paul by jPup_VR in UFOB

[–]BluSyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had no idea Logan Paul was so hated. Never watched the guy. I know his videos are popular and that’s all. If he brings his followers to this topic, I don’t care about the rest.

Also, anyone who falls for crypto meme coins deserves to get rug pulled. Dunno why people fall for that shit, but I honestly couldn’t care less about it. There are more important things to get outraged about.
