Need all roads converted to giant Qi charging pads before electric becomes adoptable by renters and people in apartments

yeah

is tesla stock gets to the point where a car manufacturer could afford to acquire the company, that will be because it's going out of business.

damn, wonder if anyone's considered shorting it?

I’m building a DC fast charging network at the moment and this isn’t true. It’s like going to the petrol station except you plug it in for 20 minutes and go and have a coffee or buy some groceries or whatever you want to do while it charges.

lol at Elon twitter stans being torn pretty evenly between "clearly he's been hacked" and "idiots don't get his jokes"

we need a lottery ticket that takes 20 minutes to scratch

his stans also think he *invented* Paypal from scratch

PayPal also sucked and was (is I guess, thankfully I never have to use it anymore when paying online) bad.

I go to a gas station once a week at most for 5 minutes, I don’t think it’s feasible for people to put in 20 minutes several times a week in terms of adopting electric.

If you can’t charge in the place where you park every night I don’t think most people would buy an electric.

we have a lot of charging stations here but that wasn't the case 5 years ago.

People are notorious for letting their car get down to fumes because that five minutes at a gas station, which can be found everywhere, is a hassle.

lagoon turning into a car guy has been a good low key ilx subplot

lol it's true

The point is with DC fast charging is it won’t necessarily be at petrol stations it will be at stores and restaurants and you’ll get enough charge for the week in minutes not hours whilst you do what you do.

The first generation of AC was pretty useless when installed at grocery stores because you can’t get a meaningful charge in the time it takes to do your shop. With DC you’ll be full by the time you come out. And full will be several hundred kilometres.

Interestingly we have some data from a municipal DC fast charge network in California and by far the most used charger is the one in the food coop parking lot and the session data looks a lot like people dropping in for a weekly shop and a weekly charge (along with some ride-share drivers dropping in daily).

It’s obviously super convenient if you can charge at home but in large parts of the world it’s not necessary.

Yea charging stations I've seen are usually in parking lots

thats what i said! tho also the stock price cld just come down to earth

I get the sense Tesla stock is probably more like Bitcoin than a traditional stock

Muskcoin

the stock market just went up by 13% in a month when 30 million people filed for unemployment, the whole market is like dicecoin

lmaoooo

sick of grimes gold digging

listened to the new record and he heard a single

The future was wide open.

His tesla chassis had loose parts that would jingle

maybe we should look back at what he was doing the last few times he had children. as in, lots of children per pregnancy, iirc

IVF tho

i don't wanna think of Elon cumming thx

which naturally he was probably doing to a .jpg of himself

I meant maybe he’s gone bonkers for a while each time he‘a become a dad

maybe the effect is cumulative

That exchange sure doesn’t bode well for them. They should have just named the kid Shared Custody.

Tesla is actually a meatpacking plant.

Nobody's mentioned the kids name, which is just going to mean a lifetime of getting red * next to text input boxes.

lmao what the fuck is this guy's problem

Tesla is restarting production today against Alameda County rules. I will be on the line with everyone else. If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me.

that's not how solidarity works, elon

less than a week at home with the baby and he just wants to go back to work

please god, let me get away from my newborn for just a day so i can get coronavirus and spread it

Tesla worker to me just now: "he NEVER works the line, he stares awkwardly at someone doing their job until they are very uncomfortable, then he walks away.”

From another: "When he says on the line he just means walking around every so often to make sure everyone sees him.”

never met a PR stunt he didn't like.

didn't catch that he changed the newborn's name to "a PR stunt he didn't like" but at least it's more honest

I hope a pallet of Tesla batteries falls on this fuck and slowly crushes him in front of his employees, while they golf clap him into the afterlife.

he's like The Wolf of Wall Street, except more like the Pissant of Palo Alto
