Disgustus [he/him]
Tesla has really been taking some L’s lately. I’m not sure if this belongs here or if it should be it’s own post, but I had some fun putting together a little recap of the past week, just the past week, of new developments for $TSLA.
California passes law banning Tesla from calling software “Full Self Driving”
The bill was sponsored after the California Department of Motor Vehicles claimed that Tesla’s FSD was “false advertising.”
Tesla ‘full self-driving’ triggered an eight-car crash
The report states that the Tesla Model S was traveling at about 55 mph and shifted into the far left-hand lane, but then braked abruptly, slowing the car to about 20 mph. That led to a chain reaction that ultimately involved eight vehicles to crash, all of which had been traveling at typical highway speeds.
US probing automated driving system use in 2 Tesla crashes
The U.S. government’s highway safety agency said Thursday it will send teams to investigate two November crashes in California and Ohio involving Teslas that may have been operating on automated driving systems.
The probes bring to 35 the number of crashes investigated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration since 2016 in which either Tesla’s “Full Self-Driving” or “Autopilot” systems likely were in use. Nineteen people were killed in the crashes.
…
NHTSA has been investigating Tesla automated systems for 6 1/2 years without taking enforcement action.
Estimated Tesla Order Backlog Decreased To Just 163,000 As Of Dec 8
For reference, it was at nearly 300,000 at the end of September and through October, nearly 400,000 at the end of August, and close to 500,000 in the period between March and July. In other words, the total value has lowered by more than 300,000 or two-thirds since July. … It means that Tesla’s production of new electric cars quite significantly exceeds sales.
Elon has sold about $23 billion worth of stock since April, promises not to sell any more
But Kuleba added that Ukraine would only extend an invite to Russia if it first faced war crimes prosecution in an international court
Not a serious proposal
Goddamn he doesn’t miss though does he

Largely yes.
I need better fitness, I need to read more, I probably need ADHD meds or I need to develop better focus.
So I can see exactly where I need to improve and I can see the path of self improvement.
