well frick bro, say that next time

i do believe Elon is right and that either optimus or something like that will be in many houses within 5 years to do the day to day work. there was a humanoid test I saw yesterday with it folding clothes, it wasnt nearly as good as human, but within a year or 2 it will pass a human up imo and not just with that, the cleaning for the whole house, prolly mowing the lawn or the robot lawn mowers will have made enough progress by then that they handle that.

I do see it for that but not some of the other stuff and traditional trades or work in the manufacturing/oil/petrochem industries for a long time.

hilarious coming from you based on your bumper sticker slogan advice in this thread, while ignoring any of the legitimate questions/concerns.

All of which is easily learned by reading or listening to some podcasts.


Well, why don’t you share?

Minimal effort is telling someone to look it up themselves.

Can only beat the data center dead horse so many times.

Arguing water usage and noise after participating in 2 dozen threads on the topic is just choosing to remain ignorant that they are bullshite fear porn topics.

I think the other models were discontinued because the Model Y is so popular and versatile. The Model 3, Y, and Cybertruck hit their price points so there isn't a need for anything except something in the $20k range which they are supposedly working on.

Well yeah, if the community decides they want a project and you don't want to be near it. Move.


How does the community decide they “want” these when the local and state politicians approve the deal giving variances and tax breaks with no input from the community?

Hard for a community have a say when they aren’t informed of the project until it’s already approved and groundbreaking already started a month ago.

Landry has outright admitted that transparency on these deals kills them more often than not.

Can you find any quotes from a single Louisiana politician on the campaign trail talking promising to cut secret deals giving tax breaks and variances to Bay Area based companies?

According to Government Meteorologists, the excessive heat will melt the ice caps and drown us all.
Or am I just dreaming a bad dream? Maybe it was Cow Farts?
