Six years ago, she warned the world was ending because of climate change.
Now she laughs about it like it was all a joke.
It was always a grift.
Greta Thunberg laughs hysterically when told Fridays for Future, climate change group she founded, still protesting: 'They still do that?' trib.al/NzkW0gv

Wait, this is a perpetual $299 lease for infinity with 30k down.

Thought it was badass to see Tesla selling the Cybercab for personal use, but then read the Cybercab personal purchase terms. You don't own it. You're paying $29,990 to babysit Tesla's robotaxi.
🔒 $299/mo subscription required or it won't move. Price can change with a month's notice.
🔒 Only runs in Tesla-approved areas, which they can shrink whenever they want.
🔒 Can't sell it without Tesla's written permission. Try anyway and it's $50K in damages.
🔒 Tesla can buy it back any time at a price THEY decide, and you pay to return it.
🔒 Want a wrap, tint, or new wheels? Only through Tesla.
🔒 Tesla can remotely restrict or shut it down.
🔒 And you still pay the insurance, charging, and registration.
That's not ownership. That’s a a lease where you pay the depreciation along with a monthly ransom.
HARD PASS!

Yes, sometimes I still like to fold thrice! The Trifold has held up very well over nearly a year. I even spilt some Diet Coke in the hinge a few days ago, no Samsung Care needed!

$300/month and it’ll park on medians, curbs, handicap spots, illegal spots and I get any ticket and damage that comes with it 🤣🤣

Doug DeMuro thinks the Rivian R2 could be a smash hit. $RIVN
@DougDeMuro reviewed the production R2 Performance Launch Edition and gave it a 70/100 DougScore.
What impressed him most:
• Smoother ride than the more expensive R1S
• Premium interior that feels better than its price suggests
• Higher driving position and excellent visibility
• Spacious rear seats and practical cargo space
• Over 650 hp for around $60K
But here’s the most interesting part.
After driving the R2, Doug actually lowered the R1S’s value score.
Why? Because unless you need a third row, the R2 delivers much of what makes Rivian special at a significantly lower price, with an even better everyday driving experience.
R2 isn’t just a cheaper R1S. It may actually be the better choice for many buyers.
Great review by @DougDeMuro!

Yeah this is dumb.
Tesla - “Pay for this driverless car, but if you don’t pay $300/mo you can’t use it at all. Oh, you don’t own the vehicle after paying $30K so don’t modify it or wrap it because we will suspend your subscription and keep your $30K. Thanks dumbasses for buying the cybercab”
Here are the some of the most interesting things from Tesla's personal use Cybercab autonomy subscription agreement:
• You can only use the Cybercab for personal use (for now). You can't use it for commercial use.
• You can't modify Cybercab, including adding wraps, window tint, or changing wheels, except through Tesla or an authorized provider.
• Three or more safety strikeouts result in a one-week suspension, during which Cybercab may be unable to operate.
• Cybercab has touchscreen-based manual controls that allow movement at speeds up to 2 mph, intended for short-distance maneuvering rather than public-road driving.
• Cybercab can autonomously drive itself, without passengers, to a Tesla Service Center for maintenance and return home afterward.
• Owners remain responsible for insurance, registration, parking, charging, general cleaning, and other expenses.
The Cybercab autonomy subscription is $299/month.
