either way it’s wild that Elon is so unlikable that he makes Zuck seem like the cool normal person in this exchange. Zuckerberg seems like the normal one here that’s how bad it is.

I just remembered that during the cybertruck intro elon threw a ball at the window to show it was bullet proof. it shattered. so he did it again and shattered another window. then after the show they hastily repaired the windows and released a video of him trying that again but obviously with a softer ball. also laser windshield wipers, which they promised kind of. both of those seemed to have disappeared from the production model

the laser wipers remain hilarious to me. no we're not gonna use the tried-and-true physical wipers that are cheap to buy, easy to install, and work well, we're gonna use  lasers and burn a ton of energy and make the car way, way less safe and harder to maintain

The best part of laser windshield wipers isn't the enormous energy costs or outright danger to everyone around the vehicle. It's that it would boil away the water but leave behind any dust or dirt in the water leaving your windows caked in crap within seconds.

wall plug efficiency of lasers is pretty drat low. ~10% for CO2 and ~30% for IR fiber lasers. not exactly light (lol) either. my 1kw laser source weighs in at ~70kg, plus another 20 for the chiller. overweight and inefficient, that's the elon mush way!
