Im “sure” the reason that the solar roof has been delayed has been due to running mocked up roof builds through an accelerated weather/aging test regime right (like a real shingle company would)?

And test it against high winds, snow loads, etc., like a “conventional” company would?

And also designed it to be very safe and robust enough to survive all the poorly paid and high turnover roof installer job holders that would be handling the product every day?

There is a non zero chance one of the countless certificates required to tool up for producing some loving dangerous stuff in Germany is given out by somebody I know and regardless who it is gonna be of those people that thought makes me immensely happy.

Please Musk. Enjoy Germany.

Also good luck making ISO 9001 with your quality control

yes even our automotive overlords get piss stains in their trousers when they know the Reeeeeeeee certification is due. And without 9001 you are the corporate version of Untermensch.

Look on the bright side, the hedge funds that learned of the Bolivia coup early due to insider trading, and shifted tons of money into Tesla stock, are just as likely to lose it all as ever. Money spent on Tesla stock does not directly help Tesla to become profitable. Whatever the investor class was going to lose by betting on Tesla not being a shitstorm, now they'll lose even more. The same investors who were best positioned to help install a nazi government are now setting themselves up for failure as the collapse accelerates.

\/\/ yes, infinitely so, because fascists' goals include opening up all national resources to be pillaged by their friends in the corporate class. Fascism is like a socialism that selectively benefits only the rich. Might makes right, the rich deserve their wealth, etc. all are parts of the fascist ethos.

all problems will be disappeared and the process smoothed out, because musk's dick must be sucked: https://www.bloomberg.com/amp/news/articles/2019-11-13/elon-musk-s-german-factory-started-with-love-letter-from-berlin

quote:

The government in Brandenburg, one of five federal states in the former communist east, also lobbied hard to win over Musk, offering at least 100 million euros in aid. The state’s negotiators kept up the pressure in the past months, touting Brandenburg’s proximity to Berlin, its skilled labor force and an abundance of clean-energy plants, Premier Dietmar Woidke said.

(...)

Fresh from his experience building a factory in China, Musk had a demand that was as clear as it was hard to execute for notoriously bureaucratic Germans: to build the site as swiftly as the one in Shanghai, according to Brandenburg’s economy minister, Joerg Steinbach. That caused considerable consternation among officials still chafing from the new-airport debacle.

nothing matters, there's a legion of people in power just tripping over themselves in their eagerness to give musk money and cover up for him. just give him 100m € and "smooth out" the ever so stifling and bureaucratic regulations that's hurting innovation, nbd

I’m surprised musk is saying he picked Germany over Britain because of brexit. you’d think he’d love the country that’s about to abolish eu labour protections, slash corporate taxes, and also destroy its own currency so you can pay workers for a pittance in dollar terms.

tesla only survives off huge government subsidy, a brexit UK will not be doing any of that

I will day the silver lining about Ole Musky is that for a dweeb who basically lucked his way into a billion dollars from PayPal, his fortune burning antics are at least entertaining. Even the lithium fire that is Tesla is way less harmful to the world than anything the Koch family does or those like 4 different billionaires who buy newspapers for the purpose of turning them into fascist propaganda outlets.

What I'm saying is I'm willing to let him have a padded neck hole on the guillotine for making me smile.
