Swasticab : transport for fucking Nazis
- "Cab Heil Service"
  
  Heil a Cab.
- A Tazi. That works too.
  
  No. Nope. Not at all. People from Tazmania are called that. Literally have a music friend from there who calls himself "Tazi-tech music".
- Yup, happy to hear this news.
Has he tried swasticar? I've been hearing allot of grassroots buzz around that name in the last few months.
They won't even last very long on the roads. Either they will crash, blow up, or be vandalized by the public. I know for a fact that I will destroy them from within if I ever see one. The easiest and quickest way will be walk up to one and before the passenger gets in toss in some fart spray, that shit could total a car since it is almost impossible to remove from fabric.
- This guy fart sprays ^
- You shouldn't promote vandalism, vandalism is wrong.
  Unless of course it's some asshole that really really REALLY deserves it...??
  Never mind carry on.
Swastikab, they redirect its passengers' ride to ICE facilities if the cameras pick up dark skin tones!
Even if there were a lineup of these ready to go at the airport, I'd still wait 10 minutes and pay $20 more for literally anything else.
Do Robotaxis and Cybercabs burst into flames like the Teslas meant for public purchase?
Like they’re launching in June anyways
- Maybe he meant June of 2031?
Oh no, Musk has to find a good name by himself instead of buying a premade brand.
I would imagine that the fact they cant self-drive would be a bigger issue
- It's probably the actual issue. How can they only now discover right before launch, that there are trademark issues?
  
  Because there isn't a trademark conflict, it's just too generic of a term to get trademarked in the first place, but it took seven months for USPTO to process the application.
  "Tesla applied for the trademark in October 2024 on the same day that it revealed the Cybercab."
Tesla's going to make Uber and Lyft lots of money as people reject Tesla's services.
- That makes no sense. Why would they make more money than they do now? It's not like this is going to increase demand.
