Tesla is a pure marketing company like Boston Dynamics with these robot videos

It's about to be seen in California streets while the heavy lifting is done by 90000 MAN trucks that nobody ever heard of
Obviously, but mf talking about how electric trucks will revolutionize long haul trucking, and ppl just eat it up :lol: It's literally fantasy.

Not sure about long haul trucking, but delivery requirements in urban area (i.e. cities & their suburbs) it seems to make the most sense.

LOL charging stations in the middle of South Dakota/Montana i doubt it.

I have yet to honestly find any business committed to buying one of those things for long-term commercial use. It seems like all the company does is produce robot dance and parkour videos for YouTube by pretending to be a B2B business of the future.

Meanwhile, potential customers -- businesses and municipalities - only seem to license a freebie for a 3-month-long pilot so that they can have their police officers and corporate bureaucrats pose with the dancing robots for the local papers and pretend that their organizations are "future ready".

It's a bit like taking your photo with the guy in the Goofy costume at Disneyland to show your coworkers how fun you are.

Pepsi is apparently buying a fleet of the semis.

Like abstract and I are saying, bunch of local deliveries around a metropolitan area...which is what Pepsi/Fritos do.

They're testing a model with overhead cables and hybrid-electric-diesel trucks here. You charge while driving that means the more of these 'electrified' bits you drive though the less battery capacity you require. And you have your diesel as back-up

They’re trying something similar with the bus line here in SLC. Only the buses charge at designated bus stops throughout the city while loading and unloading passengers.

I wonder if this Kanye situation is really more about his family breaking up then anything else. Like a murder suicide.

Wife dumps him, he tries to fuck with her on social media / through the courts so that he feels less helpless in the situation, doesn't work, so he has effectively begun to torch his own reputation as much as possible knowing that she is forever tied to him due to former marriage and kids. Burning his own house down to harm her in the last way he can.

The narcissism, ego and antisemistim are all real but the motivation for the public meltdown is he can't get over being cucked

You're looking for reasons and rationality in a person who is, quite clearly, insane.
