I am not a fan of #ElonMusk, but I do not like seeing this happen to #Tesla, as it will have a ripple effect on the Electric Vehicle market.
#Layoffs will affect about 14,000 people.

the general outline of this story has been known for years, but seeing the whole thing written in one single place is truly horrifying and shocking.
the Muskrat is a fascist, narcissistic manchild, and his companies, all of them, are hotbeds of racism and misogyny.

The Toxic Culture at Tesla | The Nation
The factory floors at America’s top seller of electric vehicles are rife with racial harassment, sexual abuse, and injuries on the job.The Nation
Holy Crap! So I assumed the new #Tesla 's self-driving feature was better than my new #nissanleaf 's safety features. NO! #Elon removed LIdar and utrasonics in the latest and crashes exploded in number. ATM "self-driving" vehicles are 10 times more likely to get into a crash than a human driver. The Tesla is by far the mostly likely car to get into an accident. That's because level 2 autonomous driving is NOT a self-driving car even though its been marketed as such. It is going to take decades before when get to level 4 autonomous driving. Current level 2 driving in most cars drops fatalities by 20%, but that is only because they had LIDAR and ultrasonics and don't advertise themselves as "self-driving"
"Norska Pensionsfonden KLP kan komma att lägga fram ett aktieägarförslag på Teslas årsstämma om att adressera Elon Musks ovilja att delta i förhandlingar om kollektivavtal. Det skriver Reuters.
Strejken i Sverige har i flera månader stört biltillverkarens verksamhet och väckt oro hos flera nordiska institutionella investerare. På måndagen sa Musk att strejken är överspelad. "
So three things:
- Proof no one wants to pay $200/mo for a system that is suspect.
- #Tesla is getting desparate.
- They stuck "Supervised" in the name and then went with an acronym because if they had to spell it out, it would look as stupid as it is: Full Self-Driving Supervised.
So, Tesla, is it Full Self-Driving or is it not? Because if it has to be Supervised, it isn't.
"But a few months in, his supervisor started calling him 'boy.' Keys heard white coworkers use the N-word and call people 'monkey.' There was a swastika drawn with a black marker near where he clocked in to work every day."

Tesla has settled a lawsuit over the fatal Model X crash, which killed Apple engineer Wei Lun Huang in 2019.
The company confirmed Autopilot was turned on, but had always insisted driver error was to blame. However, as @engadget reports, Tesla settled out of court on the day that the trial's jury selection was due to take place.

Map 🗺️ of the area around the #Tesla #Gigafactory #Berlin #Grünheide 🏭. It shows where everything is happening now and what kind of places are bordering the Tesla factory and the area where the expansion is planned. To the north are the train tracks and train station. To the south is the industrial zone. To the east are pine tree and spruce monoculture plantations 🌲🌲🌲, inside of those is the #protestor #treehouse camp. To the west is the #A10 highway Berliner Ring 🚗

Interesting, the wastewater amount in #Bastrop by #Theboringcompany / #Spacex is much higher than the #gigafactory4 #Berlin usage. #Tesla used much less freshwater than originally expected and also had less wastewater because of their water recycling plant.
The only issue they still have here is that the waste water, because it is recycled so much, has increased levels of nitrogen etc.
Maybe they can build a similar plant in Texas? 😀

Surely it’ll happen … eventually. The empty promises factory continues to produce at a regular rate, I see.
