Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Oh, I know this one! It's like the Hans im Glück (Hans in Luck / Variants) tale: Hans starts with a cow and ends up with a rock, through a series of "advantageous" swaps.

Will the price eventually hit 0 or is it asymptotic?

Eventually, Elon will pay people to take his "trucks."

No, as there will always be a lot of metal for scrap. What is the price of aluminium at your local scrapyard? That will give you an idea for the price floor.

Those batteries are easily the most valuable part.
