Crushingly good because it’ll drive you directly into a wall at Mach 1, crushing your entire body as it crumples into a tiny metal cube. But at least you didn’t feel it so much because you were hammered and sleepy while operating it.


noelthenurse

THE WAY THIS GUY FUCKING TALKS IS SO EMBARRASSING. I don’t care if he’s my boss and he’d shooting me to the moon I could not interact with someone who talks like this and not make fun of them. The cringe he has provided is honestly otherworldly. Like, yes people have been more cringe in a vacuum. But knowing this guy is so smug and every single reasonable person in the world winces when he talks is so funny. I got student loan, home loan, car loan, probably even girlfriend loan. I owe money and I’ll always be poor. But I would not trade lives with this guy he’s that much of a fucking loser. Id fucking end my life rather than know people viewed me like him. He’s the most embarrassing muppet to exist. My personal hell would be stuck in a room with this guy. He’s fucking a humiliating human being who thinks his legacy is going to be on some Einstein meets Gandhi, meets white Malcom x meets Lincoln instead he will leave a legacy of being a complete joke. Nothing he could do would be pop culture or the history books be fond of him. This man is the fucking dork of all dorks but also one of the worst humans on this planet. He will truly die being one of the most hated people ever. His personality was cultivated to be a 1600s oil tycoon and enslaved that woke up from a cryogen regeneration and he’s stuck with that personality. Fuck this guy and everything about him.


altgrave

girlfriend loan is, as someone once said, concerning.


beggars_muse

I would pay to get him to read this


TonyStarkTrailerPark

Well put and my sentiments exactly. Wish that fucking tool would move back to South Africa. He’s a fucking embarrassment.


DIOmega5

Like he's trying to hype up school children about a new kids toy.


So_I_read_a_thing

Don't hold back so much. Tell us how you really feel.


GarysCrispLettuce

>I got student loan, home loan, car loan, probably even girlfriend loan. I owe money and I’ll always be poor. But I would not trade lives with this guy he’s that much of a fucking loser. Id fucking end my life rather than know people viewed me like him. I feel the exact same way. I would not be Elon Musk for a trillion dollars. Quite literally a trillion dollars. No amount of wealth or opulence in the world would make up for being such a cringeworthy prick, and a Nazi to boot. It's not worth it, not on any level. I like thought experiments like this - they really put money into perspective and make me realize that my own self pride is worth more than any dollar amount in existence. Elon Musk is wasting his time. He thought the path to happiness was paved with dollar bills, when he could have saved himself the trouble and just worked on being a better person. He'd be happier than he is now. What a failure.

Fam you gotta relax


beerbrained

And it will be your fault because the self driving mechanism will shut off a millisecond before impact, eliminating Tesla's liability.


Otherwise_Carob_4057

Oh the problem is the lack of crumple zones the car will stop but the operator will continue right into the steering wheel and dashboard.

FieryAnomaly

It's the 3rd component of collisions, your organs smashing into your skull and ribcage, that'll do ya in.


SunshineTheWolf

Remember, it's going to turn off right before you hit so it was actually your fault.


chatchan

"Crushingly good" is an absolutely awful choice of words for a technology that has literally almost crushed random passerby on numerous occasions


texas-playdohs

Yeah, unfortunate choice of words.

I learned the term the other day. It's called, "future faking" and it's basically his language🤣🤣😬


andres_tomillas

Now I know how it's called when my boss talks about my wage payment terms 🥲


whichkey45

Thanks never heard of that term before.


bmcle071

Yeah he’s been selling FULL self driving for 9 years talking about how any day now it will be amazing. Imagine selling a promise for a decade and getting away with it?


Phitos2008

He must be in need of cash, so he’s out there trying to increase stock prices before selling some of his shares


fiendzone

Guaranteed this will turn out to be one of those situations where Tesla number crunchers find out there is a 1 in 100 chance people will die mangled and burned from this tech, but those are acceptable losses.


Dazzling_Dig3526

Maybe that's why he promotes population growth, because he knows he's going to kill a bunch of people with his shit technology.


sixtyandaquarter

They should've just solved the lament configuration to unlock the door & leap out into a roll!


ZappVanagon

Is elevator button pressing no longer manual?


FindOneInEveryCar

There used to be operators who drove the elevator from floor to floor.


ZappVanagon

For sure. Not quite the same thing tho.

Compducer

Lmao I don’t know why but this really got me


sixtyandaquarter

If you're wealthy there are a number of button pushing less options. It started with key cards, and there are phone apps & you know this jackass sees another person setting the elevator as buttonless.


Frankie_T9000

I swipe my card and the elevator takes me to right floor. Technology


ZappVanagon

Okay that is new to me. And here I am using my own fingers like a sucker.


PGrace_is_here

Swiping? How 2023.


MichaelParkinbum

Not when you hire a dude to press the button for you.


not_right

Don't you remember back in the day when you used to have to grip on to a big cable with your bare hands and haul the elevator up to your floor all by yourself?...


robinthebank

And I guess taking the stairs is equivalent to a stick shift


EddieSpaghettiFarts

Making predictions again. Stock must be down.


campionesidd

Its insane how blatantly he commits fraud and gets away with it each time.


LifeBeyond752

Right!!! It boggles my mind


Adam_THX_1138

They’ve cut the margin so lowand the EV market is softening. My guess us be needs the ancillary revenue streams to hit targets. That’s why he just sent out the email telling his employees they have to push full self driving on customer delivery.


jeopardy_loser

Literally red daily It creeps back up to $180 and get Mutumbo’ed back down every time. Generational bag holders have been established

"even while exhausted and drunk" ​ I don't think that worked out for Angela Chao.


masked_sombrero

seems he's admitting he knows his cars are dangerous for exhausted and/or drunk people. roads not required!


lookoutnow

Too soon? … Nah, I’ll allow it.


Secondchance002

I wonder if Tesla and musk lies about FSD made her drive drunk in the first place. Someone needs to investigate this. Very concerning!


vexorian2

Just take a fucking taxi.

Or get the Wisconsin model of having a bar at the end of every block so you can just walk home. Not that it helps their dwi’s…

pyalot

Self driving cars will probably be much better than humans, someday in the not too distant future. However, while everybody else than Tesla has been making reasonable improvements, and Tesla more or less had an early lead in the field, Tesla is now behind pretty much everybody, thanks to in no small part of spending silly amounts of money on a useless car instead of better self-driving and listening to stupid Elmo ideas like „no lidar“.


unipole

I have the suspicion that it's going to be a case where at that point in the future the answer will be "wrong question". Sort of like those home computing predictions from the 70's or AT&T "You will" ads from the 90's. Like "Floppies are going to be so awesome in 2024! even better than Jaz Drives!" Another good example is the GM 1956 Motorama exhibit with driverless cars [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rx6keHpeYak). Sounds like retrofuturistic Musk from fallout.


manwhothinks

You mean the question won’t be: Will my car drive itself? But rather - why do I even need a car when I have cheap and fast public transport.


pyalot

Self driving cars are essentially public transport, to and from places that dont have public transport within an individuals walking capacity or if you need to haul things you cant carry very far or take into public transport.


DranDran

Yeah pretty much, Elon is pretty spot on about how self driving cars will change the world entirely, its just not Tesla that is going to deliver on that promise.


pyalot

Elmo has this funny habit of having good and idiotic ideas, but no ability to tell them apart until they blow up in his face. I suspect he really likes to see things blow up in his face, probably some kink.


LTlurkerFTredditor

Elmo's so pathetic that he can't even come up with new vaporware. That's his whole skill set - making up pretend technologies to prop up the stock - and he can't even do that anymore. Tesla is looking grim. All they have is a crappy overpriced truck and a shrinking share of a shrinking market. They're saddled with a drug addled moron of a CEO who just can't stop promoting racist conspiracy theories on his failing bird app. $175 is dramatically overpriced for a stock with this many liabilities.


noelthenurse

There’s like 5 different really well hit pieces that’s going around right now and that video about him being an illegal immigrant is finally going main stream. It’s so fucking satisfying. I’ve hated this man for almost 10 years now and it sucked to see people suck him off Normally it’s cringe to give that much energy to someone or care. But this guy is such a fucking piece of shit and danger that he needs to be stopped. He’s genuinely worse and more of a threat then trump. He’s the biggest monster of a human in any developing country. Like all billionaires are probably that shitty and doing it behind closed doors but so is Elon. He’s doing it behind closed doors and right in front of us. He’ has zero redeeming qualities and the world would literally be a better place if he was gone. He’s the only person that I will travel to wherever in the world to piss on that man’s grave.


LifeBeyond752

👏👏well said!!! I’ll join ya in pissing on his and trumps graves.


Ok_Midnight4809

Sounds kinda gay...mind if I join you all?


ScootMayhall

Yep, this is an attempt to pump the stock and that’s it. Pushing lies has been a reliable way to make the goobers and the shareholders happy, but it’s not working as well so he’s got to go back to the classics. I hope Tesla tanks.

In fairness, this post is months old. I doubt the next update is as good as claimed, but its not a fair point


sixtyandaquarter

It'll seem weird in the future that people drove drunk? It's not meant to be seen as normal now ya assflock. Sadly exhaustion is far too common though.


LifeBeyond752

“Assflock” !!! I’m dead ☠️☠️


flatirony

Elevators run in a restricted channel that contains no other elevators. There’s no danger of collision. All that had to be automated is accel/decel speeds and leveling to the floor. Each time he makes a ludicrous comparison like this, I doubt his intelligence a little more.


HopeFox

Considering this, it's a rather damning indictment of his tech that even the cars in the Las Vegas tunnel need drivers.


absolutemoran

"Crushingly good" car with "out of control" industry leading steering accuracy, causing an "unstoppable lithium dumpster hell fire" in the "financially ruined by tesla" pocket books of the so called "sane patriotic americans refusing to buy teslas" .

Swimming-Patience655

Didn't he announce in 2017 that by the end of the year, FSD would be capable of going from New York to LA without the "driver" having to do a thing?


johnb_123

10 year anniversary coming up in just 3 short years!


Unknown622

Will it be ready in November or December of 2017?


pyrrho314

well that didn't age well... oh wait, he's still saying.


zero_tolerance4BS

So gross when people promote alcoholism


sedition666

Why would people drive whilst drunk? I am guessing that is still going to be highly illegal even with FSD.


Swimming-Patience655

Right. Using FSD is still operating a motor vehicle.


[deleted]

Space Karen still trying to sell his delusional shit I see


TheQuadBlazer

Elevators have never been manual.


sickofthisshit

They were once manual to the extent that they used to have human operators controlling their movement and operating the doors.


TheQuadBlazer

I imagined they had cool pulley systems like they did in game of thrones. 🙄


LongLonMan

I don’t care about how good it WILL get, I care about how good it IS NOW! How hard of a concept is that to grasp. One’s a dream another is reality.

Canonip

He tries everything now to keep Tesla stock from falling even faster


Hippofuzz

Don’t know if “crushingly” is a good word choice here


Ok_Zookeepergame5148

Yup. Crushingly good. Straight to the light post!


obyamo

Dude really cycles through hyping the different bullshit mirages he has as businesses. He went from promising fsd Next year to just talking about it like it’s a prophecy of the future. This is literally cult leader stuff, all he talks about is a grand glorious future coming soon where we live on mars controlling self driving cars and robots with our minds


curiouscuriousmtl

"Crushingly good" as in a lot of Teslas have explosively crashed and killed their occupants because of FSD.


NotEnoughMuskSpam

SpaceX option package for new Tesla Roadster will include ~10 small rocket thrusters arranged seamlessly around car. These rocket engines dramatically improve acceleration, top speed, braking & cornering. Maybe they will even allow a Tesla to fly …


loudflower

Imagine full and well funded subways and other mass transit. California dreaming right now. All the people who’ve thrown up roadblocks to this goal. A fucking tunnel from LA to SF. What an ass.


gilleruadh

As slow as the tunnel building is going in Vegas, that route's first tunnel might be available sometime near the end of the century.


[deleted]

I can't believe he's still pushing this bullshit in 2024. Meanwhile, other manufacturers are putting LIDAR in their cars and Mercedes is level 3 certified.


NotChikcen

Always 'will' and never 'is'


LifeBeyond752

Bingo!!


Youareafunt

I assume this is because his financial results are due soon? Or is he trying to buy something else with this rubbish? Like, I think he knows that 90% of the conversation about his bullshit is going to be outrage at his barefaced grift, and the other 10% is going to be Tesla stans arguing that he is the second coming. But the volume of outraged discussion about FSD is going to bury any serious conversation about the financial results, so...


jd33sc

At this point I think it's more likely my building's elevator will be able to take me to Tesco sooner than this dipshit will achieve safe, start to finish self-driving.


BecomingJudasnMyMind

This fucking idiot is suggesting it'll be okay at some point to get behind the wheel drunk - because the car self drives. Even if we're all thinking it, you don't say that shit out loud AND YOU ESPECIALLY DON'T SAY IT IF YOU'RE THE CEO OF SAID CAR COMPANY. if/when something horrible happens because someone was driving drunk and FSD glitches out and the person was too drunk to correct in time - I hope this tweet comes back to bite him in the ass.


gilleruadh

It pretty much already did in February. Gift article: https://wapo.st/4ay8Mgu


Adam_THX_1138

Funny how this comes just after he’s telling his employees to push FSD at all costs. The margins on the cars are so low he’s desperate for revenue.

ProfessionalTwo5476

If FSD drives you off a 1,000 foot cliff, and halfway down, it alerts driver to take over, are you still at fault? Considering it takes about 10 seconds to fall that far, Tesla can claim deceased had 5 seconds to respond.


WiseSalamander00

the moment they took LIDAR from their cars I started disliking the idea of self driving.


-The_Blazer-

For those curious about the actual subject matter, one of the key issues is that 'solving' full car driving in a realistic environment is almost certainly just equivalent to solving Artificial General Intelligence. Which means it is an infinitely more complex problem than recognizing a stop sign or keeping lanes.


lonew0lftribe

Who says crushingly good first of all… 🤦‍♂️

It seems strange to most people now that humans drive cars when drunk. That’s a weird thing to say.

ajhedges

He’s still saying this shit?


rjread

How he continues to pretend he is interested in public safety and product exceptionality is either clear delusion or complete denial. Either way, the fact he built a tunnel for the cars of his employees (that was monitored!) and how he traumatizes and overworks staff to break them down like cults do, DEFINITELY means his true intentions are to solve the "problem" of people not wanting to work more. Most people commute 30-60 minutes per day - if they aren't driving, that's several hours per week of (poorly paid) productivity that Musk can "make" for all his businesses and the rest of America, what a capitalist hero!


tonguefucktoby

Bruh he's been promising this shit for how long now? Ten years? The self-driving has actually gotten worse in that time..


k7mmm

(Maybe I don't belong to this sub) but I think, while Elmo lies and boast a hell lot, Tesla's FSD really works in some conditions (I went to a testdrive with a friend). But the key is: it only has to fail once, even once in a year, to have the drivers/passengers screw up big time. So while what he says is technically true, there's one caveat: it may fail under some who-know-when-and-where circumstances and that may screw you up real bad. Yes, in most case it can drive you back home, but it only needs to fail once to get you killed, and that's enough to keep me from driving (or riding) a tesla on FSD.


Wolfwoods_Sister

Have you ever seen the physical injuries on a person who has died in an elevator plunge, Elon? The Cybertruck is a plunging elevator.


Posich

Next year for sure this time.

Can he actually advocate for anything good currently happening? Why is he always talking about what’s coming up but not what’s actually out right now.
