shoutout to Tesla for somehow cultivating a worse driver population than BMW

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago (1 children)

They can't be as bad as Audi owners. Audiots are the worst motorists on the road.

My brother, have you every seen a BMW? Motherfuckers look like either they lack blinker fluid or didn't buy the optional directional light package at all.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I know that BMW drivers are problematic but most of them are just dumb dudes who stumbled into some money. Audi is the car of the vicious and entitled bourgeoisie, those who feel they own the road as much as they feel they own their employees. They combine horsepowers with entitlement and class hatred. And for some reason they install a powerful magnet in the front licence plate of every Audi, resulting in the damn things constantly being a few millimetres from the car in front of them.

In my part of Copenhagen, there are quite a lot of Teslas driving around, and I gotta say, it warms my heart to see just how diverse the bazinga-drivers have become in recent years. Most of them are of course pasty white nerds driving around staring at the big-ass ipad in the center-console, but more and more I begin to see the successful young professional class of immigrants/brown people also driving and staring at the big-ass ipad.

Surprisingly large amount of them in Stockholm are contractors using them as company cars. Fairly common that a project manager for plumbing or whatever shows up in a Tesla now.

oh shit sounds like the range rover drivers have some competition

how dare you not gradually nudge the car out of its lane. Dude isn't watching, you coulda just sent him on a journey into the woods forever

[–] [email protected] 34 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You probably need something like a Hummer to nudge that thing. It's obnoxiously huge and heavy.

[–] [email protected] 37 points 6 months ago

You don't even have to touch it, the sensors will dodge it out of the lane to prevent you from hitting it.

Dude isn't watching

Fill a spray bottle with hydrogen peroxide and salt then spray it all over his car

If you showed this to me 4 years ago and told me it was a shot from a movie or something I would have told you it was too on the nose

In the book Snow Crash people who use VR while functioning in public are called “gargoyles” and are universally despised and mocked as try-hard dorks. It’s pretty neat to see at least one thing from the sci-fi I grew up on come true.

only thirty years too early

I should read that

So everyone knows, Cybertruck doesn't have autopilot or FSD enabled yet.

My sources say the death penalty, for espionage, being considered for the guy driving in a Tesla while using a Vision Pro headset.

I am pro-life and take no pleasure in reporting this.

I am neutral on life and I celebrate this news

If that's the Apple headset then he can see through it. Still probably just as if not more distracted than someone fucking with music on their cell phone tho.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

They can see through it, and it doesn’t work while on a moving subway, according to a video I saw yesterday, so I fail to see how it would work in a car. At least for now.

(You can do stuff with it while stationary, but when you start to move the content stays static and drifts away, then tells you it doesn’t work while moving. Jury is out of it would work on a plane. This makes sense because the thing locks what you are doing into place so you can look around and whatever.)

I don’t give a shit
