Oh to be ignorant of the cyber truck. There are so many complaints about this piece of crap daily online. They lock out their owners, have body panels fall off, have very few protections against auto closing doors cutting off fingers, the accelerator pedals can get stuck at full speed while moving, they are uncoated stainless steel which corrodes, and replacement parts are insanely expensive.

I saw a YouTube short of someone claiming Tesla fixed the trunk door cutting people's fingers off. He demonstrated with a banana at first. It detected the banana and immediately opened the door again. It barely made a dent into the banana. So he's like imma try my finger now lol. So he tries his finger and of course that fucker clamps down hard on this mf's finger, which gets stuck for a short while before the Tesla gives up and opens the door again. But his finger had a huge and deep dent in it, bro. You could tell he was in big pain. His hand was shaking minutes after the event.

I don't know what's worse, the door, or this idiot thinking a banana is an accurate prop to use in place of a finger. I would've used something smaller than my finger. If it detected that, you would think a finger would be safe...

One other thing here is that the sensitivity of the detection is actually decreased with repeat attempts. This is pretty standard.

The reasoning here is that people will check after the first failure. And if they then send the close request again, the car will try a bit harder. Maybe it's just some bit of oversized luggage that can be pushed down.

I swear Lemmy acts like anything shitty happening to a Cybertruck is like it's Elon's personal car getting fucked up. You're being trendy. I fucking hate that guy too but is this really funny or meaningful?

Why don't you just nuke every city in America because we all use Amazon and Bezos is a megalomaniac, evil bastard? Post it on Lemmy and laugh because we all deserved it for supporting him.

Look, Elon Musk is the most popular celebrity in the world, probably tied with Donald Trump. Of course we constantly shit talk about him, it's what we humans do. Just roll with it, or continue to have a bad time, it doesn't matter either way.

[–] TheControlled@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I think I'll continue to have a bad time on Lemmy, for $500.

Yes, Elon Musk is. Not some random car owner. This all feels like bullying to me.

Of course we constantly shit talk about him, it's what we humans do.

I pretty sure that's almost verbatim what one of my bullies said about me, who also isn't Elon Musk incidentally.

Just rip on Musk, not his customers.

Is it because YOU own a cybertruck? Lol

[–] TheControlled@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Uh, no. I own a-- Actually fuck off.

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago

That's unfortunate, I'm sorry you've been the target of bullying. I'm just saying we as humans gossip about one another all the time. If it's directed with the intent to harm a real peer I'm not okay with that. Although we do indeed require a way to vent and gripe when stressed about certain situations or persons and that's okay.

I saw once in the wild last week and it was wrapped in silver vinyl. That seems like a necessity for these trucks.

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It is, and it’s like $2000 extra

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago

Small price to pay when you're always pissed out $80k

I saw one of these for the first time the other day and was kind of awestruck at how dumb it looked in real life. I mean, I was never a big fan of the design but it really looked so much worse in person

[–] drcobaltjedi@programming.dev 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Just saw one for the first time today. Man its honestly much worse in person.

[–] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

it might be the ugliest car ever made honestly, i urge people to find an uglier mass-produced car.

[–] snapcatcher@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

It is very close in ugliness to the Fiat Multipla https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_Multipla

[–] LesserAbe@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I know we're all shitting on Elon by proxy, but the multipla, Aztec, pt cruiser, Chevy SSR and plenty others are uglier.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world -1 points 5 months ago

Aww. I kinda loved the SSR. It feels like a modern take on a vintage style.
