Black Friday Vibes

For me? Put on weighted backpack, put on the newest episode of my favorite podcast, and take the dog for a walk around the block.

The fact that he spends less than 1 sentence addressing the fact that “younger Americans believe failed them” was very surprising and strange.

Where does one give Bluesky invites to a good cause these days?

Tweet that says, “what if I told you that rioting is good when it’s for good things and bad when it’s not?”

Sell prints and give the proceeds to a cause this person would hate?

Being from MI, I’ve tried learning 4-5 times, but it’s never stuck. I feel dumb.

I agree, even less of a reason to hold it up as a realistic preview of some future production model, IMO

It’s described as a prototype, not a production model.

We can say Tesla doesn’t deserve that benefit-of-doubt, that’s reasonable. But there’s also plenty of real-world reasons to jump to conclusions that Cybertruck is a mess. I just don’t think this is one of them.

For example, if I saw the Apple AirPower in a museum, labeled as a prototype, and saw it had poor fit-and-finish, or didn’t actually work, I wouldn’t imply that the production version was / is also susceptible to those problems. I’ll judge it if / when it’s ready!

I don’t know if it will come out, I don’t care if it never comes out. My point just to say that in *any* manufacturing field, I don’t think it’s fair to make the implicit statement that a prototype clearly made for marketing is at the level of production-ready (whether production happens or not)

I agree, it looks horrible! But it is *literally* described as a prototype, so assuming that’s what it will look like when (if) it is produced is not accurate.

Ok now you’re being willfully ignorant to my original post. Have a nice day.

I’m not here to be a Tesla apologist. My point was just to say that comparing a *labeled* prototype to any real-world product that’s being mass-produced is inaccurate.

I dislike Tesla as much as the next guy, but www.wsj.com/articles/tesla-begins-cy...

My guess is that’s just the prototype / concept car, and doesn’t necessarily represent the (sure to also be shoddy) production version.

on a totally non-shitpost level i want to do a summary thread here for anyone who isn’t caught up with the UFO disclosure story along with a breakdown of Schumer’s UFO bill. if you’ve heard mentions of it but are thinking it’s bullshit this is for you

Oh brother, this guy stinks!

Didn’t most people come to hate the news & politics part of Twitter in the end, regardless of how helpful it might’ve been at various points?
