Honestly, tesla would probably do better to fucking fire Musk as CEO. He holds less than 13% of the shares according to a 10-second Google search, so it doesn't seem like he has unassailable control of the company.

If I were any of the other large shareholders I'd be fighting like hell to get a better CEO. Musk has switched from asset to liability.

I believed in Tesla's FSD until they decided to go visual cameras only. Now I'm convinced they squandered their decade-long lead in the market on a technologically inferior strategy.

The only issue I've heard with NACS is that the 800V battery auto makers aren't convinced it's as capable as CCS of supporting the higher voltage for that generation of EV battery. Hopefully they work it out soon.

Can you please accept the USA into your pleasant union?

True, but I bet you that the 53 isn't able to do much about that 46. At least nothing that fits in the bounds of a civil democracy.

Orange County, where Disney World is located, went for the D candidate 53-46. Don't blame them for the malignant human tumor their state foisted on them.

LOCK HIM UP

Honestly, as long as Tesla maintains its supercharger network, it will continue to blow its competition out of the water. I say this as someone who got a Korean EV instead of a Tesla.

Electrify America DCFC stations have been slipping in quality quite noticeably, just in the past year. EVgo is still catching up in the DCFC world, with a lot more slow 50 kW cabinets than genuinely fast 150+ kW chargers. Non-Tesla cars using the supercharger Magic Dock often aren't charging as fast as a Tesla, likely due to the difference in electronics.

I think you have to be the sort of person who doesn't mind tinkering a bit and putting in planning and effort to thrive in a non-Tesla, unless you simply never plan to road trip far enough to need DC fast charging.

So a lemmy user will probably be fine. The general public might do better with a Tesla for now.

Eh, that may play a role for the big firms, but most of the small to mid sized businesses just lease their real estate. They'd realistically come out ahead by downsizing their offices.

I think what we are seeing is management really struggling to adapt and find reliable metrics for performance management as well as to promote employee retention and engagement without the social bonds of an office culture.

Quit making a martyr out of this loser and wannabe terrorist. He deserves to die in obscurity, not have his story told as part of the victim's own tale.

You're mistaking annoyance for piety.

So your issue is that I didn't use the word "private" in my write-up?
