- Comment on Self-Driving Teslas Are Fatally Striking Motorcyclists More Than Any Other Brand: New Analysis 1 day ago:
Why? Crash rates for Self-Driving Cars (when adjusted for crash severity) are lower.
Removing sensors to save costs on self driving vehicles should be illegal

Well, I’m not Motherfucker should be considered derogatory.
I don’t think incest is implied. Most fathers of 2 kids are Motherfuckers.

I agree, you cocksucking cuntlicking fatherfucker.

You’re hurting thousands (hundred of thousands?) of people to stick it to one man.
That one man is now hurting tens of thousands of people with his (unelected) government actions.
I’m not hurting anyone. However this online chatter is hurting the Tesla share price so I’ll keep it up.
People setting fire to a car forces fire fighters to have to put that out. That’s a waste of resources, possibly delaying other calls, and its a fucking fire. It doesn’t take much for the situation to become dangerous.
Yeah. I think burning is too extreme, but the French are experts in this form of protest
I’m more an advocate of non permanent damage (notes on windshields) and writing on the Internet. IMHO slashing tyres achieves the same extreme impact with less environmental damage or possibility of injury.

Drop the price low enough and someone will be willing to take the risk.
- Comment on Terrorists 1 week ago:
The problem with selling a Tesla is the greatly reduced sell value.
That’s not the problem. That’s the objective. Reduce the attractiveness of new Teslas. Reduce Tesla revenue, reduce Tesla share price, reduce Musk’s power.
nothing musk does is justification for risking anyone’s life with burning cars.
Are there incidents of Tesla owners being physically harmed (Ignoring autopilot problems and manufacturing faults)?
- Comment on Terrorists 1 week ago:
Not everyone can just sell their car at a major loss to get something different, life ain’t that easy.
But if enough people are persuaded to sell then this will damage the Tesla share price and margin call Musk.

Yes, most people buy, sit on, and then hopefully sell with a profit.
However, there are a large number of devs building useful things (supply chain, money transfer, digital identity). Most as good as, but not yet better than incumbent solutions.
My main challenge is the energy misconception. The ethereum network runs on the energy equivalent of a single wind turbine.

My biggest gripe with AI is the same problem I have with anything crypto crypto: It’s out of control power consumption relative to the problem it solves or purpose it serves.
Don’t thrown all crypto under the bus. Only bitcoin and other proof of work protocols are power hungry. 2nd and 3rd generation crypto use mostly proof of stake and ZKrollups for security. Much more energy efficient.
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 1 week ago:

Oh noes. Does Meta want something fact checked? Is it worried about misinformation and fake news?

Arson isn’t essential. A non violent act would be throwing eggs at the swasticar.
- Comment on Millennials are watching monthly student loan payments skyrocket from $500 to $5000 under Trump: This will ‘crash the economy’ 2 weeks ago:
I don’t see the connection between the stock market falling and student loans being more expensive.

The article says the loan costs have increased and gives lots of examples.
It doesn’t explain why the increases have happened.
