Tesla is a zombie company, it’s already dead, and it will never come back. It will be bankrupt in 2 years.

So here’s the thing. Elon is an idiot. He wants you to desperately believe he is a genius while also holding true that he plays games 10 hours a day, tweets 2 hours a day, which he prioritizes over for his 14 kids. That’s several punlines worth of Jeff Foxworthy “You know you’re a redneck when” material in one sentence of his public behavior. Articles like this are beautiful. But his stupidity should not be a surprise here, more of an expectation. (And a hilarious one at that)

Rednecks were originally the coal miners in Virginia who fought the oligarchs in the battle of Blair Mountain. They wore red neckerchiefs to identify themselves. As with most leftist icons, decades of psyops have perverted the term.
All that to say, it is insulting to rednecks to compare Elon to them.

I love that his supposed IQ is 165 yet I have never seen him say or do anything remotely intelligent. I’m sure he paid someone to take the test for him just like he paid someone to play his video games for him. The only thing Elon is good at is spending money. Especially American tax payer’s money.

The average American truly doesn’t know just how much their entire market is already artificially forced to keep out better options simply because they aren’t American or aligned with American gov interests.
The result is we get objectively shittier stuff than the rest of the world. Huawei being banned in the US is a perfect example of this. The gov claims they ban this shit to stop Chinese infiltration, but the reality is its to eliminate competition for American and American aligned billionaires.

Huawei’s sin was making too good cellphone. I owned one right before US decided to ban Google Android from it. It was awesome phone.

A bit of column a, bit of column b. Ban Huawei, but Cisco is made in China too.
Johnmannesca@lemmy.world 22 hours ago
Then blame TP-Link, right?

Huawei is a bad example of a good point. Huawei working on anything related to US infrastructure would be a disaster. Consumer goods maybe not so bad but that whole thing started because of B2B

A disaster for whom?

It’s not just that they don’t know. They’re willfully ignorant. People have some kind of consumer brainrot. I was talking to someone last week about how it’d be better to keep their older perfectly functional tools because the newer ones have been getting enshittified for decades. His only answer was like “well I can just replace them in if they break” which didn’t even address what I was talking about really.

The same media is sent to all people in the west. The US is just some years ahead.
TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
It’s bit of both. I still wouldn’t trust Chinese tech. Huawei tech is involved in surveiling the African Union headquarters.. This not to minimise US’ own corruption and digital imperialism, although I think the EU is in the right step to use open source software to replace American tech.

I would trust China before Elon fucking Musk.
AlexLost@lemmy.world 20 hours ago
All tech is used as such. You think Apple and Microsoft and Android aren’t selling your data to the government? Hmmm…

I just learned headlight technology in new European cars is insane. Literally selectively blocks out light to incoming cars. So you can see the road at night and not blind people.
Damage@feddit.it 20 hours ago
It’s not an European exclusive, I once rented a Mazda CX30 that did that
CompactFlax@discuss.tchncs.de 21 hours ago
My 2015MY has that as an option. It’s slick. I didn’t know it was available when I bought used but it’s a (€2500) DIY retrofit.

They keep out other options so that they can support American businesses.

There’s currently a debate in Canada if we should allow Chinese EVs, honestly everything else is already made in china, and fears of spying? I trust the Americans even less, and they’re definitely spying on us

I’ve heard people debating the feaseability of either removing the camera cluster aboard these cars and remove or disable the wifi module.

He was born in a spiral. He tried to rename PayPal “x” then tried to name several children “x” until he finally found a place that would allow it.

Yup. He cosplays a smart man. By buying smart ideas and pretending they are his. And then wrecking them. He’s as smart a man as trump is a good business man.

Byd already sells vehicles in the United States. California has a byd bus plant. The govt doesn’t hate byd they just don’t want average consumers to have any
