Everytime I see our local cyber truck I hope someone vandalizes it.

Most people who own these crappy cars can't even really afford them. Now they are in big trouble because they can't get rid of them. Lol.

That would be good for the EV conversion market. Since they use a lot of Tesla motors and battery packs.

If I had one I'd keep it, vandalise it myself and turn it into an anti-musk advertising vehicle. It's a bad idea to waste the resources that went into making them.

But selling a used one to someone that wants an affordable EV will potentially turn someone from buying one brand new, and therefore keeping profits out of Little Musky's pockets.

Sell a vandalised one then. At least you know it won't be going to a maga.

I'd just park it in portland overnight and file an insurance claim the next morning.

When you want a job done right, don't leave it to amateurs, go to stealmytesla.com.

What if everyone would transfer their PayPal credit to a regular bank account on the same day? Would that bring Paypal value down?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

hard to estimate, but probably not. I think what makes such companies go down is when the investors fear their money might be lost. that is, when the company is not worth much compared to their invested money.

So only, when the user count is dropping, that would be the case for paypal.

What are your thoughts on doing a Nazi salute when seeing a cybertruck? Is it okay because we are mocking them? Or is it just never okay to do a Nazi salute?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

don't do a nazi salute, you'll just end up making it socially acceptable. Middle finger instead.

Definitely do not. Might be a show of support.
