Does she think this is a burn? It’s absolutely what should happen.

They need to lose their tax exempt status.

Boy are they gonna look stupid when they realize that no one outside their little bubble has a use for AI.

It’s not even close to ready for launch and why are we wasting energy on it?

Shareholders can get fucked. They’re making the world a worse place daily.

This needs to be banned. In fact, “licenses” for things you buy should be outright banned entirely.

Have you looked at the cybertruck’s manufacturing practices? Airplanes have redundancies for their redunancies and that’s why people use them. The cybertruck was built with the “go fast and break things” model, does not have redundancies, and actually removed some standard safety features found in every other car. Like tempered glass.

Comparing a cyber truck to an airplane is like comparing a pinewood derby car to a military personnel carrier. One was made by a child. The other is engineered to keep as many soldiers alive as possible.

It’s rare for normal cars to shut down with no warning.

It’s pretty common for cybertrucks to do it.

Eventually that’s gonna happen on a highway. Insurance works by assuming the worst thing that can happen will happen and charging you appropriately. It’s far from irrelevant in this case.

Which is what Musk is looking at happening.

Between cybertruck and twitter, dude’s gonna bankrupt himself.

They likely didn’t know they were dangerous when they preordered and many are now stuck with them. I think they have a no resale contract for 2 years after buying.

State farm was the first to drop them

It’s more for things like the batgirl movie that is finshed but will make more money in tax write offs to never release it. But if they lose ad revenue from removing a back catalogue, that may also let them post a loss and claim tax breaks.

The simple answer to this is to change the tax code to not allow for write offs for completed projects. And to shorten how long copyright lasts (fuck Disney so much for that one)
