- Comment on Elon Musk demands another huge payday from Tesla 9 months ago:
At least in the US the charging network has been a huge differentiator. I’ve heard from a few people doing road-trips in non-Teslas and having trouble with the multitude of charging networks. Superchargers can get busy but I’ve never had a problem with them or gotten stranded. Hopefully NACS will improve this situation for all brands.
- Comment on Elon Musk demands another huge payday from Tesla 9 months ago:
Yeah if I could buy a similar car with the same features at the same price from a manufacturer like Toyota, the choice for better build quality is obvious. However up until basically this year that has not been the case. My only real complaint with my M3 is the terrible paint they use. But I can live with it.
- Comment on Elon Musk demands another huge payday from Tesla 9 months ago:
In the 5 years I’ve owned my Model 3 it’s never needed any service. Only new tires. They are not even remotely as bad of a car as clickbait sites make them out to be. Yeah yeah Teslas aren’t perfect, but no car is. Be realistic.
It being associated with Musk and his crazy rants is annoying though. Almost annoying enough to trade it in, but I don’t particularly want to spend a bunch of money and getting rid of an almost like-new working car.

As someone who bought (and still drives) a Tesla vehicle years ago, well before Musk totally went off the rails, can he please just leave?
- Comment on Elon Musk demands another huge payday from Tesla 9 months ago:
Tesla’s lofty stock price is to some extent based on hype, and Musk being credited (far too much imo) for the company’s success. If he did leave the stock price would come down to something more sensible, which at least short-term would make shareholders unhappy. But yeah leaving him in charge after what he did to Twitter must also be causing sleepless nights.

- Comment on AYANEO NEXT LITE handheld announced with SteamOS Linux 10 months ago:
Ayaneo has a pretty good track record making portable gaming devices, mostly running Windows. I’m guessing “subscriptions” here is a mistranslation for pre-orders.

- Comment on Toyota-owned automaker halts Japan production after admitting it tampered with safety tests for 30 years | CNN Business 10 months ago:
There’s a pretty good reasoning for this in the article:
“an independent third-party committee had found evidence of tampering with safety tests on as many as 64 vehicle models, including those sold under the Toyota brand.”

- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Something I realized on Mastodon years ago (well before the Twitter/X thing) is it quickly doesn’t matter so much to me how many active users a platform has. A platform is good enough if there’s some activity, and I like being there. Lemmy was already something I checked when I saw only a handful of new posts a day.
Anyway, that’s just my perspective. I’m not too concerned about downtrends of active users.

And if you’re rich, white and and a student athlete at Stanford you only get 6 months in jail.
