For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

That's not it m8, the average speed on the 401 is 120kph on slow days 130 typical and speed limit is 100. And suddenly having a vehicle drop from 130 to 100 because it saw a sign is fucking dangerous.
The Tesla was doing about 125 or so when I started merging and I was 3 car lengths behind them, then randomly braked when there was nothing in front of em.
There is nothing safe about abrupt actions which those POS do all the time
If you're close enough to the car in front of you that them slowing down by 25kph causes you to almost hit them, you're too close for the speed you're traveling.
It doesn't matter if there's a clear reason for it or not, or if everyone else is breaking the law. You're responsible for maintaining a safe distance, not the person you're behind.
3 car lengths is not a sufficient distance for 125kph.
Easy Karen I don't need a driving lesson, I did not get into a fucking accident because I was paying attention to the road and traffic around me. Something the driver(s) of the Tesla was not doing because who the fuck slows down suddenly on a highway with no one in front of you?
Seriously take the hard sandpapery object out of your ass and calm down
Apparently you do, since you're blaming others for your mistakes.
And I would argue that you would see 10 humans do this same action in the same time you'd see a robot to it once. Humans are horribly inefficient drivers, and eventually, computers will be far superior. I hope to see much better advances in the coming years.
They need to just... don't call it "auto pilot" until it actually functions like auto pilot.
Hahahahahahaha
Tesla won't because cameras alone won't work. The people who have access to lidar and radar as well as mics aren't anywhere close to universal safe autonomous driving (outside of a predefined/maped location).
And machine learning is in its infancy right now, it is unpredictable, unreliable in a lot of applications. And don't even get me started on this stuff operating in any other conditions than bright sunny days.
I've used lane assist (Elantra, Tuscon) and I find it to be terrible in many cases, long turns being the worst.
Autonomous vehicles in warehouses have just as many issues and nowhere near the variables that a car needs to account for...
Please take your head outta your arse and come back to reality please
