i will state that more than one of us in this thread

* loving hates your car and thinks you're a huge dummy for putting up with it
* really appreciates your periodic posting of weird poo poo that happens to that car

it's horrifying but also legitimately fascinating

Tesla ripped mobileye out of their AP because they were abusing it and mobileye basically told them to cut it out or else.
'Member when AP suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse at one point? That was why IIRC
yes

the earliest versions of autopilot were supposedly nothing more than "mobileye + lane keeping + gps maps". when mobileye found out their software was being used in such a comically unsafe manner they pulled teslas license so autopilot became "teslas homebrew mobileye knockoff + lane keeping + gps maps" and went from bad to worse

thats also why tesla crashes so often involve lane closures or lane construction or police cars/firetrucks parked in lanes - almost all autopilots smarts are spent in doing "recognize lane, stay in lane" so it has literally no ability to deal with any unexepected changes to the lane configuration

I feel like sometimes people say "love the $noun though" because they realize they've made a huge mistake and don't want to admit it.

"love the car though"
"love this scotch though"
"love this pizza though"
"love my wife though"

it's called the sunk cost effect or sunken cost fallacy, it's also what keeps people stuck in nigerian prince scams

there’s another related phenomena called “effort justification” from festinger which is similar to sunk cost but is more about how you think other people will view you

Yeah, that's probably the more fitting one, especially since Tesla owners see owning a Tesla as a status symbol

Imagine the brain worms you'd need to put yourself through that, get the car anyway, acknowledge that the actual car experience falls short of a luxury vehicle, and still suck Musk's dick online. :wow:
