Just remember: Tesla vehicles are surveillance machines, and the cops have access to facial recognition software, so I will not be surprised if whoever did this is caught.
I find that being incinerated has made the one depicted in the article considerably prettier. At least it has both curves and some color now.
What a strange, random occurrence.
Unfortunately lithium batteries have been really unstable recently. It is just a fact of life. Nothing could be done about this.
What a beautiful picture.
The cops’ facial recognition tech: palantir.
Peter thiel’s most wide spread project. Peter thiel, the man who funded JD Vance. Peter thiel, the man who became a billionaire with (f)Elon at PayPal. Thiel, the man who decides who is invited to and what subjects are discussed at the bilderberg meetings.
Peter thiel is the most dangerous person nobody talks about.
Also, balaclavas and ski masks, my friends. And walk differently from your normal walk. Gait detection is also a thing.
To mod your gait, an ankle weight (like gym-goers and runners use) on one ankle can help.
Wee pebble in the shoe works too I hear
From now on, attending demonstrations like
Yeah a stone in your shoe is an easy way to change gait
what do you call 4 cybertrucks on fire?
-
a good start
-
a garbage fire
-
a clustertruck
-
a mystery as to whether they just burst into flames on their own tesla style

The funniest part about Teslas being on fire is that they just have to let them burn to the ground because the battery can’t be put out.
bad quality issues.
This is the Dems most potent reaction?
We don’t actually know who did it. If this is an act of resistance, it’s one of many escalations people might take.
it could even be faulty wiring. CT’s have exploded into flames before, too.
Neither half of this sentence even makes sense. Why would you have any reasonable expectation of anything you said?
Ask a major Tesla stockholder if it’s potent.
Is it potent?
Am I a Tesla shareholder?
Just a fun fact, the Tesla showrooms aren’t owned by a third party like a dealership, they’re owned by Tesla, so there’s no “screwing over a local business owner” here.
That’s really stretching the word innocent.
Am i blind? I don’t see “innocent” anywhere…
I am blind - my mind converted Honest to Innocent. My point still stands - it’s hardly an honest profession not at all like piracy.
Probably a faulty battery. Seems to be happening a lot lately. Sounds like Tesla should pull these off the market.
There is no way they are not cheering for everyone of these cars who goes up in flames. They are insured and it’s always one less that they have to fix but can’t.
Their rates go up, and the bank and underwriters will downgrade their credit rating if this keeps up
In positive news… I think the iridescence caused by the flame really makes that back panel look pretty. Overall an improvement on looks.
Stainless exhaust gets this bluing effect from the heat. I think it looks gorgeous.
Imagine getting to experience the color change up close! It must be a beautiful final moment to watch as your shittily-made Swasticar changes colors while trapping you inside…
Didn’t Elon Musk do this by releasing a shitty product that keeps exploding left and right? When four explode at the same lot, you know you’ve got a safety issue on your hands.
When the cops ask if you saw who did it :
Back in the early days of Tesla when they still had the only cool car they ever made, the roadster, they were so proud of their near fireproof battery with lots of smaller cells. I never heard about a Roadster fire, and the first few model Ss were the safest cars on the road. I guess Elon’s “fire everyone and save money” strategy took a few years to show through.
his teslas skipped out on QC to save money.
Remember he came in after they already existed, was just an investor that demanded he be retroactively called a founder. All their tech up to the CyberCuck were iterations on the original, (sans his corner-cutting you mentioned, which was also terrible).
Jet fuel can’t melt steel beams but a car fire can warp a cybertruck apparently
Well, you see, that’s because a material doesn’t need to be at melting point to lose its structural integrity.
Just to expand on this (entirely correct statement) for anyone curious about it, what specifically happened with the Twin Towers was this:
Each floor was made of a layer of concrete, resting on a steel frame. The frame was comprised of horizontal I-beams which were pinned to the outer walls at each end with L-brackets.
When the fire heated the beams, they softened ever so slightly. Just enough to make them sag a little under the weight. This, in turn, changed the angle at which the beams met the L-brackets, so now instead of all the force going straight down, some of the force was pulling the bracket away from the wall. The brackets, and the bolts that held them, weren’t designed for this kind of stress, so they failed. As soon as I’ve bracket failed, that increased the proportion of the load being carried by the brackets around it, so they failed too (this is called a cascade failure). Once this happened on one floor, all that concrete fell down, smashing through the floor below it, and so on, in an even more extreme example of cascade failure.
So yeah, jet fuel can’t melt steel beams, but it can expose design flaws.
