For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.

No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.

Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.

Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.

Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

"He came up with a simple solution: getting the lane lines repainted on that pesky curve — which of course, didn't actually address the underlying problem."

This is why Musk is not a technological genius or a technological thinker of any degree. If he was, he would've had a spark of a thought in that shallow brain of his, that says there could've been a more broader approach to tackle things like unpainted curves. Like thinking how the software could identify what's a curve and what isn't.

No, his solution is to just go around and repaint every curve possible.

Good luck with that around here, Elon.

My first thought, because I am smarter than Elon, is that better road lines, especially those that are embedded in the asphalt/cement so they truly can't wear out, would be another good business idea.
