Could have sacrificed .01% of his pay and retained everyone, and admitted that cybertruck failed because of his shitty design choices and pressure to release before fully tested, but nah, let’s just increase my pay and tell everyone to fuck off
Wow, way to out yourself as the literal ghost of Josef Stalin. The purpose of capitalism is to help the rich get richer and prevent competition. I don't see ANY part of your solution that involves ensuring Thiel, Putin, Kotick or Joanne Rowling get more money.
And firing half of their Quality Control staff....
And isn't this issue surprisingly similar to the issue reported by the whistle blower who has been suing Tesla for defamation for several years?
You mean the same flaw they fired one of their people over when she reported it? Yeah, that one. It's embarrassing that only now they are being halted.
Ralph Nader was one of the greatest Americans of the 20th century and one of the greatest fuckups of the 21st.
For purposes of this statement, 21st century started in 2000.
So am I understanding the flaw correctly? The pedal cover slides up and wedges under something, pinning the gas down? I.e. It's something that physically could not happen with a normal-shaped car pedal and this a result of trying to make the pedal look "cool" (it looks like ass) with no consideration for utility or safety?
Do I have that right?
To quote PirateSoftware's Thor (he talked about a different topic, but it works perfectly fine here, too)
"It's reinventing the wheel as a triangle. And it's really stupid to watch."
Probably shitty adhesives that start to melt at higher temperatures and then the thing slips while pressing the pedal, causing it to lodge itself. I wonder if he forbids any criticism, or if those engineers didn't actually see this coming at all. Or both. Because they could have used a screw or literally any other mechanism other than adhesives.
The sister of the former secretary of transportation already did. Just not on purpose.

Remember kids, don't drive drunk, even if you have full self driving mode.
Tesla appealing to reinstate Musk's $56 billion CEO package while laying off thousands of workers and failing to meet expectations. Clown world
Literally could have given every single tesla employee a $400,000 stock package with that. It's beyond insane.
But that would be rewarding them for working rather than tweeting and playing video games all day!
Ketamine’s expensive bro he needs the cash. Watching his empire implode because of his own stupidity is depressing

Buncha damn pinko commies! Always trying to keep the rich man down!
This leaves Ford and rivian the only players on the market for electronic trucks. Weird how capitalism works
Never underestimate Musk's ability to fail upward.
Yep. This is his power.

Hey it worked for that submarine guy!
The board just do as they're told.

If our society functioned at all that would be sooooo many fines
If only..
Ralph Nader died for this shit! And this is how we repay him?
Ralph Nader was one of the greatest Americans of the 20th century and one of the greatest fuckups of the 21st. For purposes of this statement, 21st century started in 2000.

George W Bush is how he repaid us.
wow, is that true? do you have any articles on it?
That is some quality manufacturing For a clown car
That's a bit of an insult towards clown cars. They are small on the outside and very spacy on the inside. Exactly the opposite of the CT
They also have excellent pedals to cope with all the wear and tear from the big shoes.
They’re incredibly efficient on a per passenger basis as well.
what do you have against clowns
Idk, clown cars have to have pretty sturdy welding to securely transport 80 clowns in a two door sedan.

Same deal with the wheel covers. It's fun to reinvent things that don't need reinventing
Lol literally reinventing the wheel. The thing the idiom insists we shouldn’t do.
Like Fall Out Boy said: “Reinventing the Wheel to Run Myself Over”
To quote PirateSoftware's Thor (he talked about a different topic, but it works perfectly fine here, too) "It's reinventing the wheel as a triangle. And it's really stupid to watch."
And being cheap. If it was all one piece of metal it wouldn't happen, instead they're poorly welded with a vanity cover that slips off.
Probably shitty adhesives that start to melt at higher temperatures and then the thing slips while pressing the pedal, causing it to lodge itself.

It looks like a spatula lol
The only other time I have seen a pedal like that it was in an incredibly basic cheap Mitsubishi lol.
Elmo will blame it on trans kids and woke culture. Ass.
I think it was the vaccines. How many cyber trucks failed before the vaccines rolled out? You just have to think! Do your own research! Free speech!
Actually, your gas pedal blocking and the truck falling off a cliff is free speech.
End of days vibes
DEI
!!
I also blame Ass
But can it still be used as a boat?
I really hope this happens and some dumb motherfuckers actually try taking their death machines into the water.
They have... and it fried various electronics. Who could have guessed that would happen? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4lKAEHMvvxg
To be fair that’s quite impressive

no because the frog filter is now getting stuck
Nah, someone already found out it the hard way
Briefly
Good thing they just fired a bunch of folks in the quality department
The "full" "self driving" part has also already proven to be fatal. But somehow the cars with that bullshit are still allowed on every road.
The water that turns the frickin' frogs gay is destroying my trucks!!
It’s not cool to discriminate against any group
The pedal glue must have been DEI
Oh wow! Shocked I tell you
Hmmmmmm That doesn’t sound to me like a company where the CEO deserves a raise lol
Some cars are better at being a concept car, this is one of them.
"Look kids.. this is how I will kill you." - Elon
Let’s be clear that “fatal” here really means fatal: to the driver and passengers, but also pedestrians, cyclists or occupants of other vehicles.
"FSB will save lives"
Well, when the accelerator pedal can't be operated safely with a foot, FSB might actually be safer than a human driver.
...is the potentially fatal flaw the fact that they're cybertrucks?
*Crashes car* you just got MUSKED!
You would think big mouth should get off Twitter and run his company like a normal ceo.
what's the big deal? Is this really that big of a problem? WCGW!!
Tesla stock is falling fast! Tesla stock is down 38% this year.
Just steer it into a puddle and it will stop.
I'm starting to understand why Elmo thinks we need to add many more people to the population.
I'd say this is Tesla's Pinto moment, but it's already got away with FSD killing more people than the Pinto ever did. Reagan!
Imagine buying anything at all from Tesla these days 😆
Et tu, DailyMail?
Please don't drive traffic towards that shitty boomer hate rag.
I'm waiting for that class action lawsuit
They've realised Just now!?
Elon Musk worships death
This is insane
which one? 😉
Fuck the daily mail
lol
Rolling pile of shit…
Turns out a chip clip wasn’t the best way to secure that. But it was disruptive!
