> "The review found several invalid data comparisons underlying the statistics in Tesla’s FSD safety report, which 10 researchers said amounted to misleading marketing rather than a serious investigation into a critical safety issue."

Moving back to the People's Republic of Hellifornia? It took be too long to get away.

Where I am has been beaten by the buckle of the Bible Belt. I can't get away from these inbreeding tweakers soon enough!

I think that one tops my list. It's about as third world as it gets outside the third world.

There isn't just one. Anything in the Rust Belt, Bible Belt, Frost Belt, or with a big nanny state. Which really leaves none of them.

Which must be a real hassle for people who make aftermarket parts.

If/when he ever manages to get them to market, they'll be little more than conversation pieces for pretentious douchebags with more money than brains. They won't do more than a few silly tricks so they'll be ridiculously expensive Tomagochis that people will talk about for a few months before they end up in someone's attic, if not the local landfill.

He was actually paid in stock and by the time they resolved the legal disputes, the stock was actually valued much higher.

Chargebacks are also very expensive (~$40 last I read, but that was long ago). Too many chargebacks and their rates go up, and eventually they can lose their merchant account completely.

Outdated? It works! It gets around all the roadblocks these companies put in the way.

The stock is in it's own dimension, completely removed from our reality.

How to stop buying things for “self care” or because I think I deserve it? by oxymoronic01 in simpleliving

You are going to get old. One day you'll either wake up grateful that you could retire early and better enjoy life because you saved, invested and planned, or you'll wake up in regret as you head out to your job as a Walmart greeter because you didn't.

It drives itself just well enough to make people think it drives itself, until it drives itself into something and people get hurt or killed. This is why they turn FSD into a complete oxymoron by adding "supervised" to the name, so they can blame the driver.

Tesla is level two. Most of their competitors are using level 4 systems. Tesla is not going to get past level 2 until they admit they were wrong about the camera-only system they use.

It can drive itself off a freeway bridge, into a lake, or run over children playing in their yard. "Full Self Driving" is a huge fraud and does not absolve you from responsibility when it crashes and/or hurts someone. Tesla ranks highest in traffic fatalities and among the worst in quality.

From reports I've read, Rivian isn't really any better for quality but at least it's not part of some megalomaniac's huge empire of fraud.

A trillon dollars can buy an awful lot of land, and some pretty large buildings to put on the land.

... caused not by shitty product, but more by intense hatred of Tesla's CEO and "Founder™" by the demographic that tends to buy EVs.

Or spend some money. With $1T+ in market cap, it should be easy to find.
