Makes you wonder if removing the lidar and using fucking cameras isn’t part of the problem… cheap bastards.

Was that cause of the cost? Didnt Elon come out claiming lidar was a "crutch" or something?
Well he said all sorts to try and justify it but really it was a cost-cutting exercise, of course it was a cost cutting exercise, why else would they do it?
Anyway that explanation doesn't make sense, if using lidar was a crutch then surely that's a good solution right. It's a bit like going, no you shouldn't use wings on your aircraft that's a crutch, you should be using the antigravity tech that we don't have yet.
In the long run there probably are going to be better solutions (that's how civilizations advance), but those better solutions don't exist yet, so... maybe we should use what we have.
It's an extra 60k.
Charge the stupid fuck Tesla chain of decision making with murder. This bullshit "self driving" advertising is premeditated, that's no longer manslaughter.
And charge the driver(s) with manslaughter under aggravating circumstances.
But oh no, muh profts, hurr-durrr....
Wouldn't it be death by negligence rather than pre-meditated murder. After all I don't think anyone at Tesla actually wanted this particular person to die, they just didn't really care to take any action to prevent it.
"I aimed my rifle at that person's head and pulled the trigger, but I swear I didn't want them to die"
Tesla should be broken up and reassembled with zero overlap in management.
And yes, legally it won't stick, but the shitty south african oligarch should absolutely be tried for murder.
Who's at fault?
The government for letting tesla get away with false advertising. They let them do it because they swallowed the hype along with Musk climate saviorism.
What about the people for letting the government get away with bad governing. They let them do it because they swallowed the hype.
Still governement's fault for brainwashing the population with neoliberal governemental donothing-ism which fedback into the system as paralysis and letting liars lie for clout and money (Yes, I mean the Musky one)
