Hisense TVs force owners to watch intrusive ads when switching inputs, visiting the home screen, or even changing channels — practice infuriates consumers, brand denies wrongdoing

Reply in thread

Hisense are also selling their TVs with different specs on different markets which is really annoying. In the United States you get Google TV but in Europe you get the awful Vidaa OS where you can't install Google Play Store. And the big national TV streaming apps are missing in their own app store where I live.

I talked to a retail seller and he said that they ultimately had to stop selling them because they got so many complaints and returns. Maybe it's a licensing issue or something but it's just such a braindead decision that is damaging the brand.

Tesla profit tanked 46% in 2025 | TechCrunch

I can rant for hours about all the insanely sketchy stuff they’ve done solely for a one quarter boost, and plenty of other stuff where their cost-cutting directly resulted in loss of life.

My favorite is how Tesla invested in Bitcoin in 2021 and started reported unrealized gains from its Bitcoin holdings in certain quarters when the price went up but then just omitted it for the next quarter when it was down. I believe that they have changed the laws regarding that now... if that matters.

Elon Musk says Tesla ending Models S and X production, converting Fremont factory lines to make Optimus robots

Tesla booked just $2.28 billion in “bedrock,” repeatable earnings. [...] At its current market cap of $1.44 trillion, Tesla’s selling at an adjusted PE of 632 ($1.44 trillion divided by $2.28 billion). Palantir, the super-hot supplier of software to the intelligence community, is often cited as the ultimate in over-the-top valuations at a multiple of 353. But Palantir’s got nothing on Tesla. At a “core” multiple that’s 80% higher, Tesla easily beats Palantir for offering minimal pennies in profit for every dollar you’re paying for the shares.

The Tesla stock is the biggest bubble we have ever seen. Short it on the market with the right timing and you will become filthy rich. It will crash, there's no way they can deliver to this valuation ever... the only question is exactly when. It's difficult to predict since it doesn't follow any logical rules in the short term.
