  Of course it just keeps hitting harder when things are in the way.

  Literally Tesla’s response

    I’m sure these “engineers” were confused everytime they saw an elevator door not mercilessly crush people.

      This breakthrough technology could finally provide a way to teach people on the MTA not to hold the doors.

      Nope, but they probably know that an elevator doors and a car lid are two completely different thing with different use cases and security concerns.

        They sure did not know about the “not crushing human limbs” part.

    They learnt about consent from Elon.

      Probably “graduated college” the same way too

    It that point why not just have some blades slide out on the third try?

      Why bother when the door itself is an effective guillotine?

    The vehicles deny reality, same as their creator…

  He did the test wrong because he's experimenting with "safety" algorithms that the manufacturer has provided little-to-no documentation on and is having to come up with answers on his own. Maybe he wouldn't be "doing it wrong" if Tesla hadn't over-engineered every aspect of their piece of shit truck in the first place. This thing is a solution in search of a problem, and it'll chop your fingers off until it finds it.

    Most general question, what is the main purpose of this car? Why should people buy it?

    It is a tank.

    Steel walls for rich guys who want to protect their asses from masses of poor people around.

    What should the door of your tank do if you want to close it, but some bonehead does not move his fingers out, repeatedly?

    Now hurry, finally! Your rich guy wants to get away from here! BAM!!

  If it increases in pressure every time, I’m now curious how many times you need to close the trunk to cut a finger off

  • Nepenthe@kbin.social ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    That was very nearly my exact same thought. Maybe not for curious children with carrot-sized fingers, but for adults, how convenient! Business competitor's body won't quite fit in your fancy frunk? Just while away on your phone for about 10 minutes, let the cat do its magic, and off go the legs! Travel-sized!

  He forgot to put it on Finger Safe Mode™️ before closing the trunk

    But this feature requires an extra monthly subscription, that wasn’t included with the package of the YouTubers

  • zombieshotgun@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Well to be fair, that functionality is a pretty pricey add-on.

    They’re gonna add this in and call it “Jeremy mode”, just like the existing Joe Mode

  That’s why Apple gave up on designing a car. Because all of the customer base has already been captured by Tesla.
