Battery life degrades over time. Tesla cars are disposable toys, but long-haul trucks go hundreds of thousands of miles in their life. It barely has enough capacity for nominal performance with a brand-new battery. That seems like a bad sign.

I don't think Pepsi et al are buying these for long haul they're buying them for local routes.

People said the exact same poo poo about the batteries in the Prius when they first came out. Yes, batteries degrade but it's not really all that fast as long as they're properly cared for and batteries are getting cheaper all the time.

Like, you know what a 300 mile range EV (from Tesla or anyone else) that's battery has degraded 50% is good for? 97% of daily commutes in the US.

I don't really give a poo poo about the semi or know anything about it and maybe it's dumb as gently caress for a million reasons but 500 miles on one charge seems legit impressive and to say its garbage because of battery degradation doesn't seem true.

Why would anyone trust numbers that Musk puts out, dude tends to hype poo poo up that isn't true.

Besides that, what he seems to consider hate speech is vastly different to what hate speech actually is.

Is he consciously trying to emulate Trump's manner of speaking or do they just have the same breed of brainworms? I feel he's about 24 hours from posting a rant on twitter about being the best at The Cyber.

tim apple told him his dumb trolling posts were what was actually scaring advertisers (including Apple) away. tim probably told him they would advertise again if he behaved himself, which, if true, is very lmao.

His words don’t mean anything. He just repeats things he’s heard in the past. Words were said in a similar context so repeating them must mean he is a normal human.

Does 'impressions' mean that someone viewed that hatespeech tweet? Because making fewer people read Twitter seems like a good way to lower that number.

"You'll never know if you can fly unless you take the risk of falling."
Wtf is "love speech" is that some sort of "where are the straight allies" and "white lives matter" twist on the current social climate.

Or is it just search box: "love" and the tweets are like "I would love it if (insert minority) are dead" from the 2 follower nazbots

Yup, an impression is just someone loading the page/tweet and having the opportunity to see the ad.

So total impressions will go down if total traffic to Twitter goes down.

If he was talking about impressions on a hate speech post as a function of overall Twitter traffic, that would be one thing, but he's saying "despite significant user growth" which even if it weren't a blatant lie would not necessarily be talking about traffic, but rather ... signups I guess? Irrelevant if so

it's funny that that is literally the exact same image he posted several days ago to show 'lower' 'hate speech' 'impressions' and you'd think he could regenerate a chart to show what it looks like after Kanye's white power hour yesterday, but alas he was too lazy to even bother getting a new fake mocked up so we're still getting the old one.

This HAS to be referring to additional Holidays-period PTO on top of regular vacations. Shutting down non-essential services between Christmas and New Years, because productivity is going to be as low as it gets anyways, is not uncommon.

Lol, probably not.
