lol that’s not going to stop them
Hey, off topic, but that’s the first animated icon I’ve seen in ages. Very cool. 😁
Thanks! You’re the first to comment on it.
Well yeah, it’s a scam. That car isn’t going into production, they couldn’t even make the Cybertruck not suck fuckloads of dick.
It’s not even a roadster
PT Barnum’d them
Noooo, you don’t say?
They only need to dupe very few to rake in lots more cash for elon. Can you imagine the huge amounts of energy required to flip, flop and fly that car? You’d probably get about minutes per charge or per tank.
Probably not even that. I have a miny whoop, it’s battery is 1/3 it’s volume I’m sure much more it’s weight. It only flys for 3 minutes. I can’t image a Tesla would stay in the air for over a minute.
TSLA got a bump in price during the presentation but it closed the day even lower than it opened. :)
The presentation was in the evening, even after regular after-hours trading. (Livestream was scheduled at 8:55 p.m. Eastern Time.)
But you’re not too far off, the first prices recorded in pre-market trading the next morning reflected a bump, and then that day closed lower than the previous day.
(the vertical bit is the jump from last after-hours price to first pre-market price)
Thanks! I was looking for the graph but was too ignorant of the whole thing to post my own source. Just saw the times and graph on Bluesky yesterday.
Why are they still calling it the Roadster? It’s a fucking coupé.
Tesla don’t give a shit, there’s no money in these kinds of cars, this is just to goose the stock price.
TSLA caught a nice bump during the presentation and then fell to below what it opened for that same day. :)
We are going to build something. We dont exactly know what it will be, what specs will be, or what it will look like or if it will be built at all
Give us more money.
Announcing the rugpull beforehand is very ethical of them
Let’s say they actually did release this and it worked safely. What’s the use case for being able to jump 100 feet? I can’t think of anything other than to skip in front of the car in front of you in heavy traffic, or in other words, to be a colossal jackass to other road users.
None of the rocket versions (and probably also the “suction” version neither) will be road legal. The cold gas thrusters they use are incredibly loud (and unsafe for anyone standing around) and the fan system spits out any debris on the road towards the cars behind it.
Sudden high pressure gas release tends to deflesh anyone next to it. Yes it is as bad as it sounds.
Not to mention where the hell does the car land, and how does it guarantee it won’t land on another car, a pedestrian, etc.
wait. they said the actual car will have them? I assumed it was only for the show
FDA has decided it is okay to poison food and EPA has decided it’s okay to poison the water…What makes you think automotive safety laws.will.be upheld?
The car is ridiculously expensive. So it’s not like a poor will.be driving it causing problems for.the rich.
Pretty sure society has decided rich people.can.cause problems at the expense of others and commit crimes as much as they want.
If it ever gets produced, it will never be road legal. Its a meme to drive stock up, this is the use case.
Of course, I am thinking of a future where Trump & co. isn’t president who can allow something like this on the streets.
And you can do it once and then you need to refill for 7 hours. I’d just a stunt
I was looking forward to the reports of Musk influencers getting themselves killed.
It was a dumb stunt and not one that doesn’t show of the models unique abilitys or features. Supposedly if you are a stunt driver you can get it for stunts but I can’t see many being sold as drivers like to use old cars because it’s not a big lose when they make a mistake and crash.
Somehow even as a stunt car it’s less impressive for the fact that the amount of precision required means that the whole thing is computer-controlled anyway. If I go to see a stunt car show I want to see stunt drivers performing with their cars, not just sitting in them while an AI does everything.

You deserve more upvotes than you have
Lemmy generally doesn’t like Seinfeld, on account of the whole dating-a-schoolgirl thing and the being-kind-of-a-dick thing
Yeah it sucks that he and kramer are both shitty irl
Its a great show and very funny even on a recent re-watch a few years back.
At least she was legal vs. Epstein Island that Musk wanted onto so badly.
Ah yeah. This particular clip is good though. I find it really useful with IT support as well
Eh, I’m happy it got as many as it did. I’m sure a lot of people wouldn’t want to because they’re (very justifiably) against Jerry Seinfeld. I just think the bit itself is funny.
I mean, nobody ever accused Larry David of not writing funny material
Not to mention the “flight” capable model is purchasable by invitation only.
Just like the previous Roadster, this will never see the light of day.
The previous Roadster was at least a good looking car that never existed on the market, unlike the new abomination that may also never exist on the market.
The first generation Roadster wasn’t designed by Tesla, it was a Lotus Elise with the combustion drivetrain removed.
No, there was the 2nd generation roadster that I suspect the only model of it Musk missed an entire planet with and is now in orbit around the sun.
That’s where all the money from the reservations went, at least it made it to space and didn’t just explode or crash XD
Distraction from the musk documentary
Elon claimed he never meet Ghislaine Maxwell or Jeffrey Epstein, then this photo came out proving he had at least meet Ghislaine and his ex-wife confirmed they’d stayed at Epsteins mansion in New York so he obviously knew him.
And we know Elon’s brother and investor Kimbal Musk not only knew Epstein but dated some girls he set him up with and they talked about Kimbal introducing him to Elon.
Then this email allegedly between Jeffrey Epstein and Elon Musk discussing an apparent kung fu practice with Ghislaine Maxwell was introduced as evidence at a trial. Elon claims its fake but he’s been caught lying so often it’s hard to trust his word anymore.
