this is completely safe as there will be a human in the car
Okay someone volunteered… they just have to convince their wife
sweet fucking christ there is nothing Americans won't do is there? tweet
If you dig a little bit further into the thread it starts getting really deranged
This is very serious to me. It is not a joke and it is not “for fun”.
If the public is misinformed about this technology and refuses to adopt it, or if haters succeed in getting regulators to slow it down people — including children — will get hit & sometimes die.
For all we know, it could be your kid. It could be my kid. It could be you or me.
:thonk:
If you don't accelerate the development of The Torment Nexus more people are going to be killed by The Torment Nexus.
I think the belief is that Teslas are substantially better at not hitting kids than human drivers are. This is false, but many people believe it.
I think this is an acceptable interpretation; but to me inclusion of the phrase "and refuses to adopt it" means they cannot comprehend a future where there AREN'T Tesla FSD cars everywhere, and "the public's" obstinate refusal to get on board with this vision of the future necessitates additional harm caused to realize that vision.
"It'd be much more bloodless and painless if you'd just go along with it, really." - the words of the utterly deranged
Still absolutely unhinged, yeah. I just think it's important to understand someone's beliefs if one is to argue against them.
There is a teleological rhetoric that technocrats have very effectively utilized where the future is mostly known and it's just a matter of getting there. It lets them tacitly assume that these inventions being used in this way are what progress is. It's what happens when you remove both politics and epistemology from your understanding of technology.
Aha, I think our interpretations were not in conflict after all and we are making the same (if not very similar) points, but that was a much better way of putting it.
"The Torment Nexus is a foregone conclusion, and you are actively harming others by not helping to mitigate the worst aspects of it."

Babe! Come on! This is serious! No I know but you don’t understand someone was talking shit about musk on twitter! … No this is not just like when I offered to blow him!
uncritical support to that guys wife and her divorce lawyer
That man's wife would of been PROUD if he had taken a shot to the back of the throat for ol' Muskerino to be able to think clearly on the next new technology, like some kind of flying car that carries several hundred people across large distances, but maybe through a tunnel or something?
Babe a child is temporary, but a horse is FOREVER!!
I did this for US!!
in my experience it very good at stopping for people of all ages
How often is this dude nearly hitting people
how dangerously do you think a dude who wants to run a kid in front of his car to own the libs drives
What point are they trying to make, that that dummy that got obliterated was somehow not sufficiently child like enough or that child sacrifice is necessary to complete this technology
They'll be driving at 5 mph? As everyone knows cars never go faster than that.
I reject this psychic damage
someone hold me and tell me this is a bit
Unclear. There were a lot of people in the twitter thread saying "Oh the tesla plowed through the dummy at 30mph because it detected that it wasn't a real child!". How that's better I don't know.
You see, your honor, I was in fact doing the parents a favor by uncovering this vile deception. The child was never real.
of course it's the fucking bay area, can we get some pacific ocean hurricanes going
Typhoons are the Pacific equivalent. I think what we really need is :gui-better:.
I’d be glad to help. How about you play the child and I’ll do the driving?
Most Euros do not distinguish that much and would be perfectlyfine to call any US American, including those from the deepest South, a Yankee. I don't, i prefer to spell it yanqui like my dudes Posadas and Fidel.
