  • I was initially going to give him the benefit of the doubt on Twitter, but it was either something before (I can't recall), or it was definitely at least when he was spreading the conspiracy about Nancy Pelosi's husband that confirmed it was all bollocks and not to trust anything about the state of twitter or his intentions for it. He lost 100% of any good faith once he did that.

  • I wasn't talking about FSD, I was talking about AP.

    Although if you use FSD, to sign up, you need to acknowledge this (among other things)

    "Full Self-Driving is in early limited access Beta and must be used with additional caution. It may do the wrong thing at the worst time, so you must always keep your hands on the wheel and pay extra attention to the road. Do not become complacent,"

    If it leaves Beta in V12, and that warning is gone, there will be problems probably =( It's not ready to lose such an extreme warning. And it legit shouldn't leave beta until they take on liability and it's legit FSD.

  • When you sit in the car, it really doesn't though. When you enable it, it clearly warns you about the dangers involved and to always pay attention. The radar versions even warned you about specific situations it would fail in and potentially cause a fatal accident. All cars that rely on radar have that issue and warn their users.

    Anyone who's used it knows it clearly has problems, and honestly, it can be a little nerve racking getting used to using at first as well, because it does have problems and you need to learn them. My partner doesn't like using it because of those problems.

    The majority of people causing accidents on it have simply grown accustomed to it. They know when it will usually fail, and then make poor choices and end up in a rare circumstance. People are just people and make all sorts of bad choices. Some people follow the GPS off a bridge or into a lake.

    That's not to say I don't think there's room for Tesla to improve on this, like using the in cabin camera to further help detect if someone is paying attention or not, but ultimately it falls on the driver to pay attention.

    If you happen to be given a Tesla with AP already enabled on your profile, and you've only gone off what you heard in the media then sure maybe, but those aren't the people causing problems. And really, if you rent a Tesla, I really do hope it's all disabled by default so you have to turn it on and go through the setup. That would be a legit problem in my mind otherwise.

  • I'm going to get downvoted to hell here, but if you defend google here, you should be defending Tesla when someone severely misuses auto-pilot.

    Play games on AP and don't pay attention causing crash, not Tesla's fault. Drive off a bridge cause the GPS tells you to, not Google's fault.

    You're responsible for driving your car at all times.

  • Nothing will change until the prosecutors who hide the evidence face serving the time for the crime they're prosecuting, or more.

    Hide evidence in murder trial? You get the murder sentence. Thats the price you pay for breaking the law and making someone else suffer those terms.

  • I wonder what term will replace tweet... it worked so well. Oh I tweeted this last night...

    People aren't going to say I X'd that last night. Sure you can say I posted something on X or I dunno, but I don't think they'll ever get something as good as tweeting on twitter.

  • Producing an EV does create higher CO2 emissions though. Not even Tesla argues against that one. It's estimated to be 20,000 km, but can be more or less depending on your source of electricity. So between a year and two years depending on how much you drive, but could be less if you drive a lot.

    Edit: Also, we have so much excess energy at night. We just need to set up and incentivize charging at night and the grid can take on a ton more.

  • We don't pay for phone updates, but there is software out there that's a buy a version and get all updates to that version, but not a new version.

    E.g buy 5.0, get 5.1, 5.2, 5.2.1, 5.3 etc but not 6.0

    Usually that kinda software stays on a version for years.

    My Jetbrains IDE is a subscription fee like that. Yearly fee gets you all major version updates, but you keep it as is if you stop paying.

    Phone updates don't come for the life of the car phone either.

    Would you pay a yearly fee to continue getting updates for your now no longer being updated but perfectly fine otherwise phone? I would.

  • If your problem with my statement is that Tesla shouldn't even be allowed to charge them for it in the first place then we'll have to disagree. They can sell whatever product they want with features locked away. If people don't want to buy a SR because it doesn't have heated seats without a fee then don't buy it.

    Trying to make heated seats a subscription is where I'd draw the line and say regulators should step in.

    And again, no qualms with people jailbreaking heated seats

  • See my original edit which was before this reply, and my follow up to another person on the same post replying like you.

    I'm not objecting to unlocking heated seats. I do object and consider something like FSD entirely different though.
