      Whenever King Bazinga gets an idea, no one around him dares to tell him if the idea is a bad one, so of course he goes through his own life plowing through consequences while being unaffected by them, one bad idea at a time.

        I hope he never finds out that the steering wheel used to be called the "whip" when they first came out.

      it sure feels like one.. i took my gf and her parents on a test drive because her dad wanted to see what they're like and it had one of those steering wheels. Absolutely awful experience. Her dad hates Tesla now and I agree. They're shoddy af and way way over priced

      Not to mention, they introduced the idea of paying extra to unlock 'features' like being able to drive further. Now the rest of the auto industry is going to follow suit and fuck us all even further.

      in a fucking car what the fuck humans weren't made for this

      I hear what you're saying but counterpoint:

      Now I know some people snack while driving (probably a little risky, if not flat out dangerous), but a relative of mine has flat out meals while driving, and I'm not talking no burgers and fries, I'm talking this guy has fancy foreign dishes like rice with meat, noodles and ice cream, and all that was in just one of his journeys; this guy's got a veritable buffet and this is while he's driving. Any car accident is going to lead to some very embarrassing conversations with cops.

      As I said in another comment, I really do think that's a fortress of bazingatude worthy of a kelly

      That bazinga wants to be walled in, isolated, and wants to do it while out and about, presumably in a parking lot for some reason.

          I think it's deeper than just the tesla bazinga. Getting in your car and driving to a parking lot just to sit there still in your car running the AC and listening to music on speakers while you work is the absolute peak of Amerikkkan carbrain.

            Yeah man, but soon it'll be automated man and I'll be able to work while I commute bro. Like then I'll be able to like, live 4 hours from the city and still be able to get a face to face with the boss (gotta for those promotions that happen on the back 9) and do a full work day man, gotta hustle and Elon got my back cuz he's like my boy man.

              Gotta send out your fully automated Tesla to collect fares for you from fellow bazinga commuters so you have enough passive income to buy DogeCoin so you can go to the moon financially so you can go to the moon for real with infinite VR AI waifus once SpaceX moon tickets are available and your real estate on the moon is ready morshupls

    Reminds me of people eating lunch in their cars to get away from coworkers. Other than public libraries and parks, there is nowhere you can go without paying. This looks sad and unergonomic. But I do wish I could work effectively from a laptop, it would let me travel without actually taking time off.

    pretty fucked up that built-in car screens are now large enough to serve as a second monitor. At least someone finally found a use for the yoke

    Cooled seat? This car has a cooled seat? That sounds...incredibly energy hungry.

    Silly me, I thought the goal of electric vehicles was to reduce emissions. But I guess I was wrong, it's so you can jerk yourself off over how civilised and "advanced" you are because your ass is cold while you sip your mocha-triple cream latte with donuts in it in the parking lot at your office.

        it's only getting worse.. now you can "donate" a few dollars when you take a flight to "help offset" ask those carbon emissions you caused

        this is really going to be a nutty world in a few more years where every action you take will cost x amount per some magical carbon impact algorithms

          I've recently had to argue with a "VOTE WITH YOUR WALLET" smuglord type and it went nowhere because that's the kind of blame-the-masses bullshit that people like him believe: that asking individual consumers to save the world (or much more likely, not save the world) with their consumer choices is a good idea and that if the wallets vote otherwise, oh well, at least they can feel smart and superior as the planet continues to burn.
