Reminder that this streamer watched AI deepfake porn of his fellow streamers.

Sadly I know at least 3 of these cybershits are in my city.

I was surprised to find one in my city. And honestly, it felt like being in the presence of an oversized Fisher Price toy car because of the tire fenders. It does not look fancy. You can tell the engineers tried very hard to make it look its best.

It’s “The Homer” IRL, but didn’t cause the company to go bankrupt. Alas.

AFAIK there’s like one Cybertruck in all of Norway, and it got snuck in through some loophole because it doesn’t meet vehicle standards.
Model Y is selling like hot cakes, though. Most likely because they’re getting cheaper due to nobody else wanting to buy them.

Not really, no. Teslas, yes - cybertrucks, no

Why?

Because stupid isn’t only constrained to the US.

This is not a good video

Why?

Its just someone mocking people for liking their trucks. Like yeah the trucks are bad and the people must have some sort of cognitive challenge to still like them them even though they’ve been fleeced. But the video is just a smart ass calling people idiots.

I can tell you why.
Even before the owner of their company overtly showed he was a Nazi piece of shit, it was an overpriced and ugly piece of shit.
N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
I will say that it’s styling is unique and distinctive, and looks like it belongs in a videogame, making it a polarizing “love it or hate it” aesthetic. While such a risky choice could potentially succeed, Musk going full MAGA and throwing Nazi salutes really turned a lot of people off of Tesla, and it’s distinctive flagship videogame “truck” became the instant icon of douchbaggery. Add in that Musk chronically over promises and under delivers (i.e., he lies about prospective features and benefits of his products), and every single problem with the vehicle is put under the microscope and (rightfully) held up as an example of why the truck is shit. Also note that, on brand for Musk, the relatively low price that it was promised at ($39,999) never materialized, and the actual price for the base vehicle was over $100K. So yeah, overpriced and shit compared to what was promised. The styling might have been able to find a fanbase, but not now, because it flags you as a Nazi supporter.

I have a unique and distinctive ass but let’s not pretend anyone but the government was ever lining up to fuck it.
i want a car with good panels that don’t fly off while you’re driving. That’s a good idea.

If it were an actually good vehicle the styling would have been ugly-cute. Jeeps aren’t particularly good looking but (until recently) their off-road skills made up for it.
But it’s bad at just about everything, made poorly, and looks like a dumpster.

I was just going to say that it looks like something from a subpar N64 title that hasn’t been played by more than three dozen people since 2004.
rigatti@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
It was supposed to be $40k? How would anyone ever believe that?
just_another_person@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
Yup. It’s just hilarious to me. I love it.

saw how ugly, what was it around 2017-18ish.
