The car is bad because of it’s inherent design flaws and bad UX.

Robo Taxi, “not so full self driving” and similar things don’t make the car bad but show the practices Tesla uses to lure people into buying a car. By promising features they can’t deliver. Same with Tesla Semi, new Roadster, etc.

About hating Elon. Hate is a strong word but he is clearly a faschist moron. That doesn’t make cars technically bad but I’d like to hear some arguments how a moron being in charge helps the company make better cars.

And regarding science, there are some papers that show that cars with screens are way less safe because you have to look away to interact with it and that “glorified cruise control” too because you should pay attention because the car has too many flaws but in practice people stop paying attention.

The swasticar manufacturer has the most advanced tech car?

Their cars are a joke. Opening glove boxes through menus. Getting rid of almost all buttons to just install a giant monitor in the middle?

And don’t get me started about their full self driving robo taxis next year since ages ago. At no point in time (even before the rest of the world caught on that Elon is a complete moron) was buying a Tesla a good idea.

What are the “other reasons”? Thought about trying it.

Like Microslop Word or Microslop Excel?

Though the phrase “prompt engineer” is so funny. Has literally nothing to do with engineering at all. Like having a PhD in “Google Search” 🤣

Looks like it worked 🤣

I still don’t see the benefits. It’s a bit like saying that every Februar (in the Gregorian calendar) had 29 days but sometimes it’s imaginary and sometimes it’s not.

Would you phone calendar show “imaginary days”? Could you schedule meetings on imaginary days? If yes - that would probably be a complete mess, and if not - why even call it “imaginary day” if it’s not a day at all.

Seems a bit like a bandaid that tries to make it more symmetric/pretty. We could expand all months to 32 days in the Gregorian calender and just call some of the days imaginary. That way all months would be the exact same length 🤣

Never heard of that one before. What’s the point of having an imaginary 29th?

You could just go back. Before the romans changed the start of the year to January, it was March. That way the “climate” would still be roughly what you expect from a September and not two months of. In another comment I linked to a calendar proposal called SAC13 that incorporates exactly that (it also fixes many other issues the Gregorian Calendar has).

I’m not a fan of base 10. I’m really like the consistency of the metric system but base 10 is/was a mistake and base 6 or 12 would have been way better for everyday use (including clocks) because of the number of prime factors. 6 and 12 are what’s called superior highly composite numbers (SHCN) which make them great choices for bases in a number system because it simplifies a lot of manual everyday calculations, especially divisions.

True, but that would lead to the same mess the Iranian calendar has, that you can’t calculate which year will be a leap year. This leads to fragmentation, lot of custom implementations of algorithms that are more or less accurate for the next hundred years.

You should take a look 🤣 did that, or better said that’s a side effect of starting with march.

Good start. Now you need a better leap year rule to reduce the calendar drift. Make sure September, October, November, December are now months 7, 8, 9, 10 (because that’s what there names imply) but don’t just rename them or they won’t fit the time of year people expect them to be, then make all months equal and we are almost there 🤣

Looking for a better calendar without arbitrary new year 🤣

I totally get that. Took me a while too and then I felt so dumb, because their logo was the colosseum in flames and everything made so much sense in hindsight.

Liquid democracy is a nice idea in theory but too much work in practice, especially for people that aren’t very tech literate. Lottocracy would be just as fair and way easier to maintain.

If we are lucky enough to get you as a dictator, please implement Lottocracy.

You want a accurate representation of your demographic and prevent corruption and also get rid of prr-election campaigns and funding ralleys? You should look up Lottocracy.
