“Cybertrunk will be amphibious”

I don’t know how people give credit to anything that comes out of this guys mouth. He is like that one guy in our broader cycle that is desperate for attention so he comes up with whatever bullshit story he can to join the current conversation.

His leadership and his teams have also accomplished a tremendous amount of his ambitions and continues to do so.

That's not the point, the point is that many of his 'broken promises' are actually fraudulent lies that he peddles to personally profit from.

This is illegal and he like any other criminal should face prosecution for this.

So tired of this 'rules for thee but not for me' bullshit.

Damn, gotta prosecute 95% of all YCombinator founders.

Second greatest south African to have ever lived, only after Mark Shuttleworth.

“If you buy a car that does not have the hardware for full self-driving, it is like buying a horse. And the only car that has the hardware for full self-driving is a Tesla"

Bro, I'm sure the hardware is okay, but what about the software?

It's 2024 and Tesla is paying $$$ to keep FSD injury and death lawsuits out of the courts.

Last time I checked, horses were great at self-driving.

I remember laughing about anecdotes of farmers in rural areas all riding their horse and wagon into town to get drunk at the local bar. When it was time to leave they'd just lie down in the back of the wagon and the horse would simply return home where his food was.

Damn, Im sure Elons empty promises will prevent SpaceX from lapping every countries launch record combined.

Elon will never love you, no matter how devoted you are.
