"#SpaceX satellites threaten to hide asteroids that pose danger to humanity
The International Astronomical Union demands that urgent action be taken against the uncontrolled proliferation of these devices. #Starlink satellites make it difficult to search for objects at risk of impacting the Earth"
Irony:
#SpaceKaren dreams of "saving" humanity by colonizing #Mars, dooms us to #asteroid impact- his #satellite toys blot our #telescope warning

Tesla charging chief Rebecca Tinucci cut 15-20% of her team after Musk demanded it.
She felt that would justify a major Supercharger network expansion, but when she met with Musk he wanted more layoffs. When she pushed back, he fired the whole team.

Remember all the times Elon Musk said Tesla is so amazing for the environment? The company is being sued for violating the Clean Air Act hundreds of times in recent years by emitting harmful pollutants from its Fremont factory into nearby neighborhoods.

A #CyberTruck with its passenger rear panel missing. They cost $100K. As my friend Water Tiger said, "It's the Fyre Festival of pickups."
#Tesla 's Cybertruck is quickly becoming the Edsel or the Chevrolet Corvair of modern vehicles.
Who will #ElonMusk fire for this?

Seit fast 10 Jahren betitel ich #ElonMusk als den groessten Betrueger des post-industriellen Zeitalters... gerade auf Twitter habe ich mir dafuer immer wieder Shitstorms eingefahren.
Jetzt hat die US-Staatsanwaltschaft eine Wertpapierbetrugs-Untersuchung eingeleitet, weil Musk seit einer Dekade verspricht dass Teslas bald autonom fahren koennen... womit er immer wieder den Aktienkurs pushte.
Uebrigens hat er insgesamt Aktien fuer fast 40 Mrd verkauft!
When people ask why I waste my time with this account, it is because of this. He is freaking dangerous.
I know I will not change anything by myself, but ... he is freaking dangerous.
I just wonder why in the world a publication that publishes this still has a link to Twitter, but not to their Threads account, or an account on Mastodon. Thoughts? @motherjonesmag

Swedish Tesla technicians “described increasing pressure to fix more cars in less time, which they said forced them to take shortcuts, skip breaks and stay late. They’d seen colleagues get fired for reasons that they said seemed arbitrary. Two said they’d spoken up about these issues and were deprived of raises as a result.”

Axios:
Elon Musk to reinstate X account of white nationalist Nick Fuentes

This is truly one of the more baffling decisions I’ve seen in a long time. Tesla is a leader in charging infrastructure, to the degree that virtually every other carmaker is even adopting its standard.
Then Elon Musk laid off the entire Supercharger team.

Tesla layoffs hit Supercharger team just as it’s poised to take over EV charging
Tesla has laid off most of the employees who worked for the company’s EV charging teams, leaving many to wonder whether it was poised to lose ground on Superchargers.Andrew J. Hawkins (The Verge)
Elon Musk is betting Tesla’s future on using self-driving fantasies to boost the share price instead of building a real car business. He just gutted the teams working on the Supercharger network (right as other companies are adopting it!) and new vehicles.

From yesterday: Environmental advocates called it “a land grab of Boca Chica State Park land for a private space corporation that is clearly not in the public interest.” So why is the state parks agency seemingly so eager to work with #SpaceX? https://www.texasobserver.org/spacex-tpwd-park-land-musk/

Tesla sees biggest revenue drop since 2012 but company shares still surge
Shares are up despite a revenue decline of 9% after company said it expects to release new vehicle models sooner than expectedKari Paul (The Guardian)
The system previously known as FSD, now known as "just kidding FSD" is being adjusted down to $8k. In 2022 it was sold for $15k.
"Tesla CEO Elon Musk has repeatedly said that as FSD becomes more capable, it should also go up in price to reflect its greater value. Previously, FSD price increases were largely associated with software updates that added new capability to the system."
Winning!
