Enough Musk Spam
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.

Yes. And, I shit you not, his reasoning is that humans only have 2 eyes and not LIDAR and we’re able to drive so that’s all a computer should need to drive too.
Which isn't wrong.. in theory...
The difference is that we do not have anything even close to the human brain in its capabilities.
..not to even mention that there can be upgrades to human vision. The reason our vision is how it is is due to energy efficiency and a small defensive surface area. A car doesn't care about any of that.
Doing something just because that's how humans are, without further reasoning or as an argument in of itself is... ambitious to put it mildly.
Pretty much. They are parallell solutions, neither necessarily better than the other (though for a car radars and such probably are just objectively better). Like how wheels are better on asphalt, but legs are better on rugged terrain or forests (aka more versatile, but even then you can always augment legs with a bicycle).
Thats so god damn funny, theres 10 year olds doing arduino projects with more advanced tech than a tesla
