    It looks like Elon is celebrating something in robotics that the Japanese have been doing for 15 years. It shows that Elon’s true super power is self promotion.

    That first position look uncomfortable.

    And when it walks, it looks like it's feet hurt.

    Some of the most commonly experienced physical long-term side effects of ketamine abuse include, but are not limited to the following;

    • Increased heart rate
    • Seizures
    • High blood pressure
    • Respiratory issues
    • Damage to the urinary tract
    • Reduced kidney function
    • Organ failure
    • Heart attacks
    • Excessive mumbling
    • Racism/political extremism
    • Child abandonment
    • Fantasies about living on other planets
    • $3 billion government contracts
    • $trillion bonuses
    (I may have added some).

    Unfortunately, failing to address the long-term side effects of ketamine abuse can also result in death.
     
  9. Never mind him, how about the company supposed to generate that package.

    BBC More Or Less did a podcast on autonomous car safety records reported by the relevant companies, including Tesla, of course...

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct6vz9

    As he points out, Tesla's have someone in them who, presumably, has some sense of self-preservation and won't knowingly let the car crash into something so, obviously, the figures will look better, as this shows...

    https://www.youtube.com/shorts/NV4Ym8S3_q4

    The Waymo's with FSD don't have that problem so, again, as he points out, (and as we've discussed before), they're only driven on specific streets for which they've been approved which don't include roads where most of the major fatalities and serious injuries occur.

    Just imagine a self- driving car in Paris or Rome. The road systems work because the locals know how to drive them. Throw a stray tourist or robot in the mix and they break down.

    Like in the UK, of you are in slow moving traffic and someone is trying to enter from a side road, you do the polite thing and give them room to filter in. If you do that in the States (at least in New York) the driver will just stare at you like you're trying to shake them down.

    This is another good vid about Tesla's FSD and it's safety, (or rather lack of it)...



    As he says, the only way to do this is to separate out human and machine drivers.
     
  16. I just watched yesterday a docu on tesla's autopilot and the Swedes revealed the Dutch RDW (government agency to licence car types safe for the road) had a cooperation with tesla to find loopholes in the regulations to approve it for the road.

    How Tesla and the Dutch Found a Legal Loophole and What It ... - LinkedIn
    5 jun 2025In 2015, RDW approved Tesla's Autopilot, a decision that raised eyebrows in international working groups. Sweden and other EU countries argued the system did not comply with European driver...
    Given the deaths as a result of sudden change of direction/phantom breaking etc. I really hope a mass class law suit or how that's called is being prepared to make tesla/(f)Elon Musk and those RDW assholes pay dearly for their corruptive behaviour.

    Fokking imbecil.
    Put (F)Elon on the wanted list for incitement to violence and overthrowing of an elected government.
    You fokking arrested on a UK airport an Irish comedian by 5 armed policemen for making a few insulting comments.

    Linehan posted, suggesting that any trans person he considered to be in the wrong place could be first abused and then attacked.

    He said, "If a trans-identified male is in a female-only space, he is committing a violent, abusive act. Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails, punch him in the balls."

    He was arrested by airport security police who are often, (unlike most cops in the UK), armed nowadays. There was no 'special treatment' given to him, as he tried to imply, and although they had guns he was never threatened in any way.

    So I absolutely agree with you about Elmo but Linehan's treatment is pretty much what he created by his own actions.

  20. I'm not criticizing Linehan's arrest, I'm criticizing the verbal treatment of someone stirring up for violence against an elected government in contrast to issuing a real arrest warrant for an obviously obscene remark, but in scale a blip.
    Scale in reach on line.

    I was shocked when I found out that they offer self-driving cars in Bangkok. But on second thought, it's probably safe because you will move very little and very slowly.

    Is it causation or coincidence that the nation most associated with sex tourism has a capital named Bang and Cock?

    Woah, hang on... are you suggesting that Elon Musk has been suppressing problems with his products?
