Well they got em. The Lord truly does provide 🙌🥴

Trump, Job Creator 🤷‍♂️

I think that was their sales pitch to the military

Thank you for archiving this tweet

It’s a tweet worthy of archivalry, imo

I just imagine he has a giant carnival wheel that’s marked with all sorts of reprehensible things to do and he just spins it whenever he’s bored and proceeds to executive order whatever he lands on

It’s weird–Tesla at least projected some sort of ‘higher-end’ quality back when they first started coming around but as time has gone on it’s proven itself to be a very cheaply-made vehicle.

The fact they insist on using their proven-inferior tech for FSD tells you all you need to know: they aren’t looking to innovate or even bring themselves up to modern standards. They are determined to make their cars with the cheapest, shittiest tech and they’ll just grease the right palms in order to proceed as necessary.

I can’t even imagine what they’d say

Data is like gold, and Chip allows us to expand the amount of data we collect from our assets, allowing us to understand the health of our assets and fix them before failure

It’s language like this that really bothers me. 20,000 people are getting laid off (though the CEO denies it’s going to be that many), and these fucks couldn’t be more self-satisfied with their little money-saving robot. People’s careers are being swept aside without a moment of consideration before the unpaid replacement gets trotted out for oohs and aahs. All while using language that couldn’t be more cold or clinical about “assets” – which really appears to be their way of speaking directly to the investors. Fuck everything about this.

Very little tech moving forward is likely going to be of any help to us, and i strongly suspect most of its going to be used against us. I hate saying that, as I’ve grown up enjoying the evolution of tech and have been excited at our advancements time and time again. Somewhere in the past decade or so, i really fell away from that mindset. Few new advancements have really stood out as a net good/upgrade/improvement in comparison to the amount of shitty, cheap, disposable tech that is flooding the markets. Good designs are being cheapened and worsened for cost-cutting purposes or scrapped entirely in favor of shitty/cheapo tech in place of reliable switches/motors/lights etc. Maybe i just don’t have enough $ to afford the good stuff though. That’s probably the case, lol. I mean, i did buy some really cool addressable LED strip lights so at least dystopia will look properly futuristic from where I’m sitting 😂

Ooh, i see. Unfortunately i don’t have any experience soldering these…just pcbs, wires, etc. Hopefully someone else here can help out!

What kind of iron are you working with? What kind of solder are you using? Those 2 things alone can make a big difference. Practice is necessary too, of course–but if you’re trying to work with inferior equipment and/or solder, it may be harder than it should be…

As pointed out elsewhere around these comments, this looks like another classic example of enshittification. Just like everything that’s invented, it often starts out with a fairly solid design–it couldn’t succeed without that. Once the success is captured, they can start dissecting the design and figure out what parts can be made with cheaper materials (common example: replacing metal w/plastic) and/or cheaper tech. From that point it’s iterations of further cuts to material and tech until it’s the cheapest, flimsiest version that can still function well enough to outlast the warranty. I’ve been in my field long enough (appliance repair) to see generations come and go and it often runs that route. Sometimes design flaws get fixed during the process, but rarely does the product itself get better or more durable in the long run.

Just in time for tariffs 🫠

Yet another fucking cringe name to add to the modern corpo lexicon

• Bytedance
• Tencent
• Xpeng
• Crunchyroll

I don’t even know that much about any of these companies or their practices but i just really dislike their names. I genuinely cringe when i read those words, lol

This is exactly what i predict will happen as well

I feel like this would cause a mild explosion. Not based on any real science, i just imagine that if it’s stuck that good there’s gonna be a more-than-satisfying pop when those finally separate, lol

That said, i really like your solution ✨

The game can be very buggy, but knowing how to avoid the worst bugs can make a big difference. Even then, there are still bugs that will get you. It’s not for the faint of heart.

If they pivot hard enough, sounds like that could be the game, lol

I finally understand those “Live Laugh Love” signs

It really would be an opportunity for some next-level trolling

It’s good enough to get that gov contract $$ though 🤹‍♂️
