Who's of hands, who was surprised by this?

Edit: what the fuck did autocorrect mangle to come up with "who's of hands?"

I am happy you left it this way.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

I recall now, I attempted to type "show of hands."

Autocorrect gore is fascinating, no?

What I don't get about Tesla is: when will they ever update their existing vehicles, like every other car company does? The Model S has been around for over ten years. Aren't they planning an S2? Or this all the RnD they have?

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Considering Elon's current politics, the successor of the model S will be the model SS.

They've completely re-engineered most of these vehicles, multiple times. As well as constant iterative updates. There's just no good reason to re-engineer them from the bottom up. Other than the general shape, there's basically nothing the original and current Model S have in common.

You mean like VW and the Golf 2? Just because it's the same name, doesn't mean it's the same car.

He can drive tRump around in this crap

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

He probably literally can't, since it's basically just a big RC car on an extremely tightly controlled loop.
