Nesher's electric loaders are super versatile.

You can use them to move bodies on renewable energy without any emission, noise, smelly diesel:

I made a few points in this article that I think are important:

1- Elon is the one forcing this all-or-nothing compensation plan. "You don't want him to get paid" is not a valid argument.

Elon Musk is not leaving Tesla, but he is using the threat as blackmail
Elon Musk and Tesla’s board keep repeating the threat that the CEO will leave if shareholders don’t approve his ridiculous...

What I find particularly funny about this post is that the account is setup as if it’s Optimus responding, but you know a human wrote it.

Just like all of Optimus’ public demos so far, it’s a human trying to pass as a robot.

This month marks 10 years that I've been writing for @electrek.co. I'm proud of that.

Massive shoutout to the best independent tech publisher on the planet, @llsethj.bsky.social , and the passionate team of reporters who consistently push to accelerate sustainable transport and renewable energy.

I tried to build a clear timeline of Musk's attempts to gain complete control over AI.

He went from trying to do it at OpenAI, then Tesla, and now xAI.

Kimbal Musk, Elon's brother and Tesla board member/puppet, basically just called Trump a "retard".

I bet the Trump/Elon fallout is ahead of schedule.

Elon joins the US gov, Tesla surge, Elon leaves the US gov, $TSLA surge. It doesn't make sense. It's a meme stock.
April 2, 2025 at 5:08 PM
I think Tesla has become a complete meme stock, and its value almost entirely hinges on people believing Elon Musk is a super genius and not a compulsive liar despite all the evidence to the contrary.

Even the most pessimistic analysts didn't expect 336k deliveries - 50,000 units fewer than last year.

The giant miss would point to especially bad performance in the US since we have pretty good visibility in Europe and China.
April 2, 2025 at 1:26 PM
The biggest irony is that Musk was pushing those baseless claims of people getting paid to attend Tesla protests, while he was himself at a rally he organized to promote the Republican Candidate for Wisconsin Supreme Court where he was financially incentivizing people to attend.
March 31, 2025 at 3:20 PM
Well, this explains how X's bank valuation went so quickly from ~$12B in 2024 back to ~$44B last month.

Musk had made the xAI offer, increasing the valuation.

Between SolarCity, his Tesla CEO compensation plan, and this, Musk is a master of negotiating with himself.
March 28, 2025 at 10:17 PM
This should be a clear message to Tesla's shareholders and board $TSLA. Without Musk, Tesla would fair much better in the US.

It's important to note that the majority of respondents in this survey reported being moderate or conservative.
March 28, 2025 at 5:40 PM
Tesla is becoming a political pawn.

UK finance minister says she is still negotiating with the US over the new auto tariffs and casually drops that she is looking into why Tesla gets helps in the UK from its EV incentives.
March 27, 2025 at 4:47 PM
Put together a list of where all EVs available in the US are assembled in this article.

The US' isolation continues. Expect reciprocal tariffs coming from everywhere.
March 26, 2025 at 10:14 PM
Canadian gov confirmed that it froze Tesla's $43 million in rebates applied days before the pause of the EV rebate program in January.

Tesla is believed to have made thousands of claims before actually delivering the vehicles – leading to dealers who actually delivered EVs not getting the rebates.
March 25, 2025 at 9:42 PM
Tesla has no backlog of new Model Y Launch Edition orders in the US. New orders can be delivered same-day.

Elon on self-driving: if you think it won't get better, it's like believing that a toddler will stay a toddler forever.

Elon is living proof that one can stay a toddler forever.

Tesla has laid off US workers and replaced them with foreign workers on H-1B visas. Many of those US workers were more senior with higher compensation and replaced with junior foreign workers for lower comp.

But that's not even the bigger problem.

Exclusive: Tesla is having issues with new version of HW4 computer short circuiting resulting in failures of the features powered by the computer, including safety features.

The issue has been affecting cars produced since July. Tesla service is being told to play it down to keep people in cars.
December 16, 2024 at 6:43 PM
This is what I've been fearing for years and more so following the giant wave of layoffs earlier this year.

Elon is only keeping and promoting ultra-loyalists at Tesla.

Here we have Tesla's newly promoted VP of self-driving and AI calling a judge corrupt for simply following the law.

It's madness
December 3, 2024 at 6:18 PM
I don't get it. Elon is upset that one of the accounts he boosts and gives tens of thousands of dollars to every month is operated by a prostitute?

That's an upgrade compared to the real scum he boosts on the daily.

Elon Musk's social media addiction beautifully visualized:

Air quality sucks today. No problem, I got my own oxygen.

Tesla has put Nissan back in the list of automakers getting Supercharger access in NA "soon". It sounds like Tesla prematurely confirmed Ariya drivers having access yesterday.

However, we hear that it should be coming soon.
