I swear I'm not looking for Elon or Tesla content. It's just popping up on Bluesky without me making any effort at all.

    I once saw a tesla hanging out in my back alley. The guy was trying to find a wifi signal to update his car.

    Fucking lmao. Deeply unserious.

    Tesla warns against using the manual mechanism, citing that it should only be used when the car has no power. Janel said she was aware of this option but didn’t want to risk damaging her car, and she felt confident that she could stick out the heat.

    The number of comments on people being like She could have used the auxiliary latch to open the doors! is astonishing

    A car should not seal you inside for any reason

        It reminds me of reading reviews for shitboxes like the last generation Chevrolet Cavalier, where the review will literally go "so the one headlight had a short in it, and the speedometer stopped working, and the seats started flopping and won't stay up, and it didn't pop the airbags when I crashed. Great car tho!"

    I can't believe I actually once thought Tesla cars were cool. Fucking useless piece of shit of a vehicle.

    There is no other car in the world where if you criticise a feature you get millions of views and thousands of comments screaming at you for your criticism.

    The fact that this is true should be a red flag by itself about the quality of the vehicles.

    Love it when cars in real life are as fragile as a flight sim model when automatically switching states (e.g. from 'cold and dark' to 'ready to start engines').

      Learn 2 start manually, it’s probably faster with how slow flight sim loading times are

    how did they even manage to fuck it up this bad? software that continues to function while updating isn‘t exactly new technology
