I need to sleep
A little before I gave up on twitter, I reported a tweet that was very openly calling indigenous brazilians trash and saying the country would be better without them. The next I received an email saying that it didint violated any rules

And anybody can go there, if they got the stomach, and make simple search for "jews, for example," and theres no possibility you wont find any disgusting poo poo

Thats twitter now and anybody can see. That this rear end in a top hat will not only deny it but even sue them for stating what anybody can see is just pure, extreme cynicism

That's what pisses me off the most. He's a loving child and a giant idiot, I can deal with that, but when fuckers go around blaming/insulting other races/genders/religion for their own inferiority and nothing is done to them, yet people who are those things who do nothing wrong but try to celebrate who they are get banned, that's my exit, because otherwise any engagement helps him.

It's also why Elon made it impossible to see any replies on any tweets without having the app and an account. Even ads are behind the app wall lmao

I mean are they being taken for a ride or are they pursuing their own self-interests, whether that's like stocks or whatever, or some kind of kickbacks under the table kinda deal? in the end it's not their money they're spending. cities all over the country do this dumb poo poo with tax dollars that the regular citizens don't want or need, its nothing new

Steering failures are Tesla’s new federal safety worry

https://arstechnica.com/cars/2023/08/steering-failures-are-teslas-new-federal-safety-worry/

arse posted:

Federal vehicle safety regulators are investigating a potential problem with the power steering in some Tesla electric vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Office of Defects Investigation has opened a preliminary evaluation to determine if there's a problem with the power steering in model-year 2023 Tesla Models 3 and Y.

The investigation, sparked by a dozen customer complaints, is one of a number of open safety investigations into Tesla's EVs. Just this year NHTSA's ODI also opened probes into complaints of sudden unintended acceleration, and another is looking at the propensity for steering wheels to detach.

In this case, NHTSA received 12 complaints alleging steering failure in three Model 3s and nine Model Ys. Some complaints describe the steering suddenly and randomly locking in place; others relate power steering failures that required heavy effort to remain in control of the car.

"Upon putting the car into drive for the first time after finishing the software update, the power steering failed with a "power steering reduced" warning before the car could move. The steering wheel would not move without great effort. A power cycle cleared the issue," wrote a Model Y owner from East Montpellier, Vermont.

"Upon starting the vehicle, the steering wheel frequently locks or becomes exceedingly stiff, requiring significant physical effort to turn. Rebooting the system, [exiting] then re-entering the car can sometimes fix the issue temporarily to make it drivable for the current trip," wrote a Model Y owner from Staten Island, New York.

"Coming out of the shopping center, suddenly steering wheel did not steer. It was hard and saw the alert. Went to very close to opposite side of traffic and somehow made it to across the road inside the shopping center," wrote a Model Y owner from Alpharetta, Georgia.

"Today while driving and making a left turn, the steering wheel locked up while showing an error code UI_a020 stating steering assist is disabled. This vehicle has only been driven 575 miles. Vehicle steering gets locked, and once you get out and get back in, the car code disappears; however after driving a mile or 2 code reappears, and the steering gets very stiff, making it almost impossible to turn in either direction," wrote a Model 3 owner from Woodbridge, Virginia.

In some cases restarting the car solved the issue, but other cars had to be towed by Tesla for service. None of the complaints to NHTSA involve injuries, thankfully, but one Tesla Model 3 owner described how the "steering felt stuck and slid off the road which resulted in crashing into a tree."

don't need to steer* if you're using full self driving* ai* in a tunnel

Several months back The Boring Company released a cologne for some reason?



https://www.businessinsider.com/what-does-burnt-hair-perfume-smell-like-elon-musk-boring-2023-7

quote:

Several staffers said the scent reminded them of cigarettes.

"It's like really smoky to the point where I'm like it almost smells like tobacco or cigarettes or something," said Madeline Renbarger, a reporter on the startups and venture capital team. At the same time she said she sensed some floral notes.

Deputy media editor Nathan McAlone sensed "stale cigarettes."

The cigarette-forward scent profile of Burnt Hair was seconded by those in the office who do smoke.

Darius Rafieyan, another reporter on the startups and venture capital team, initially didn't detect a scent on the paper.

"Wait, is there a smell on here?" he asked. Once he took a second whiff, though, he changed his mind. "Maybe there is, I can't tell. It smells like burning cardboard, like when you put a pizza box in a campfire."

Rafieyan was one of the only Insider staffers who attempted to analyze the scent straight from the source. Upon sniffing Burnt Hair directly from the bottle he concluded that it actually smelled better than most perfumes.

"I don't like it, but I like it a lot more than most perfumes," he said, "It's not super alcohol-forward, I don't really like most colognes or perfumes because they're so alcohol-y."

For others, the scent brought to mind some pretty specific scenarios. We heard everything from "old lady in church" and "BO" to "wildfire in Colorado kind of vibes."

Aviation reporter Taylor Rains said it smelled "like my grandfather just got home from the poker room after a night out." (On the bright side, she noted, "the bottle's really cute.")

Another editor said the smell embodied "20-something regret" and "bad decisions."

Senior tech correspondent Meghan Morris said the scent was the equivalent of a wine she once tried that had "notes of horse hair" in it, which she promptly poured down the drain.
