Tesla’s Cybertruck Is a Bust

Reply in thread

It doesn't look like it came out of Cyberpunk, literally every vehicle in that game looks way cooler and more advanced. The Cybertruck looks like it came from a "futuristic" wireframe video game from 1985. It's obviously trying to play off DeLorean vibes, it's made as nostalgia for a 40-year old vision of a future that never came. It's like if someone made a 50s rocket-punk styled car in 1990, it's just a botched anachronistic mess, more past than future.

‘We will not survive’: Toyota, Honda and Ford CEOs issue chilling warning about China — and it could hit your portfolio

"We took zero action to compete and relied on protectionism and other forms of corruption to stay in business knowing that China was pulling ahead, we refused to plan for the future and harvested all the money for our owners instead and now we're fucked unless you bail us out! Not the owners, of course, who could afford to bail us out, they will continue siphoning money even though they're clearly incompetent, we need your taxes" ... How about no?

It helps to not be a loser right now. Elon is in his 50s and still acts like a childish, insecure douchebag. The fact that you are able to acknowledge your previous loserdom makes you already less lame than Elon. No amount of money can make him cool because he completely refuses to ever work on himself.

His legacy

The Planck length is the shortest measurable length, not the shortest possible length. We have no idea how we'd even go about measuring anything smaller, because we don't understand physics smaller than that. There could be stuff that's smaller, like even more elementary particles that build everything and determine the rules of the physics and particles that we do understand. Or maybe not. Maybe that's the smallest anything can be and there isn't further sub-Planck physics, or maybe it's just turtles all the way down.
