Someone who can't manage a gear selector because it's "too complicated" is not someone I want driving on the road, and when you combine that with exceptionally terrible ride quality for the price, it makes for a dreadful experience.
When you dumb down/streamline a phone experience into an iPhone you get something anyone globally can use, with not many downsides. When you dumb down a car experience into a single screen/app you get exceptionally shitty drivers.
Unless you're an impatient taxi driver I guess
My wife hates when I use one-pedal mode, if you are driving you don't notice it because you are in control, but it is less nice for passengers.
On my car, it’s not an issue. The dead zone around the coasting point is wide enough and predictable enough.
I always assumed the bus drivers were either incompetent or lacked empathy, but it being a hardware problem could make way, way more sense.
Hated is a strong word, but I've always disliked Musk and have no interest in Tesla because his repeated comments about "full self driving" showed that he's a liar. Everything since then has just proven my skepticism.
I don't think "Musk hate" is an identity. "Musk love," on the other hand, may be. It seems totally irrational sometimes.
Yeah there's certainly no justifiable way a middle class person could arrive at at "Elon Musk is bad for me" independent of the elites telling us
Framing a topic as a love/hate binaric identity war is used to prevent all rational discussion.
It might be me, but just reading this gaslighting statement fires my amygdala.
Trolls, wether intentionally or subconsciouslly found perfect tactics to destroy rational debate on the internet and the public sphere in general.
When rational discussion is suffocated, those who use agressive and toxic language with no inhibitions or restraint can win and impose their ideas.
We need to disengage from these kinds of conversations and create some forums or platforms that penalize the use of such language.
I'm pretty sure the original commentor is not dumb enough to actually think everybody who disagrees with him is a brainwashed idiot who "hates Musk". Or at least, they wouldn't dare to claim it in a civil discussion if they didn't knew they can get away with it and enjoy spewing bullshit while causing undue distress to anyone who tries to argue in good faith.
That's a pretty big leap of faith, knowing myself. I would say the ratio of people who have decided "Musk is great / Musk is the devil" vs "He's a human being therefore he's not all good or bad and should be analyzed with nuance" is about 100:1 at least preselecting for the personalities that can't keep themselves from populating a comment box, which apparently includes myself.
