well they WERE, but at my previous real, industry-standard software company, twitter was in the middle of breaking off their contract with us bc they wanted to roll their own (good luck). they were straight up refusing to pay their bills lol

look. Elon knows more about manufacturing than anyone else on the planet! it's a shame he can't seem to tell anyone who works for him what that is.

he can't tell anyone what it is because it's simply too advanced, you see. we have not even begun to establish terminology for these processes and therefore they cannot be explained by elon's extremely special mind, it's just not possible. and even if it were, his mind works so much faster than yours or mine that it would not come out correctly, for over 90 minutes

i'm starting to think elon keeps doing that stupid :shrug: pose where he also wears that stupid rear end expression like he has a piece of literal poop under his nose because if the only stock photos of him that exist show that pose, it follows that articles with bad news about elon are an attempt at an alfred e. neumann-esque "what, me gently caress up?"

you know i was all ready to say "obviously that was a joke that an engineer made that got misunderstood, 'we'll be building cars so fast you'll need to worry about air resistance' is the same kind of joke as 'i want my steak so rare it's still mooing'"

but lol no elon seems to actually think that cars should be going through his factories like they're speeding through a school zone

The vacuum thing is probably hyperbole but

solution is obvious

run the factory assembly lines at the normal speed but eject the finished cars from the factory on a falcon heavy rocket

this will easily meet the desired assembly velocity, on average

if it was this subject elon would start hopping around like a hyped up child and start going "yeah, uh,uh, yeah and then,uh,I come in because I'm on mars, and,uh I'm in spaceship 9, and uh," then if shout him down for being scrub tier because "there's no way that fat rear end is getting in a suit and anyway winners don't do drugs Elon" then I'll mic drop and walk out while everyone stands up and claps

i watched like 20 seconds of this before turning it off, but christ the guy is just awful at public speaking and nobody is forcing him to do this. why does he still do it

and i mean, even if he likes doing it he can obviously afford a loving speech coach, but i realize that would be admitting to having a fault so elon won't do it

The company said Thursday that it lost $1.28 a share, or $392 million, against analyst expectation for a loss of 44 cents a share. The car rental company took a $195 million charge for the depreciation of an additional 10,000 EVs that Hertz is now holding for sale. While the company met revenue expectations, it is trying to quickly work past its failed bet on electric vehicles that resulted in lower rental rates and higher costs.

one of his genius ideas was to run the car assembly robots at 10x (or 100x) speed so that theyd build cars 10x (or 100x) as fast, simple as
