@NanoRaptor the funniest thing about the Cybertruck vs. DeLorean comparison is that DeLorean owners say the best way to clean the stainless steel is with petrol, which is hilarious considering the Cybertruck is an EV.

@thewarragulman @NanoRaptor also even #DeLorean added a clearcoat on top - something Tesla didn't but charges extra. #Why the people at #Tesla didn't choose #Aluminium or #Titanium is beyond me... @kkarhan @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor I strongly suspect the reason is Elon Musk is a nostalgia freak for the 80’s and the DeLorean is made of steel. Even Cyberpunk, which is dystopian and shouldn’t be replicated in real life except for aesthetic, is an 80’s thing. @0xF21D @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor the point is #Misk and his followers don't understand that #CyberPunk is a #dystopia not to be aspire for, unlike #SolarPunk, which is a #utopia we all should work towards... @kkarhan @kkarhan @Kavus @kkarhan @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor as long as corporatized “SolarPunk” is avoided. That’s just dystopia with solar panels. @0xF21D @Kavus @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor I mean, duh... #SystemChangeNotClimateChange is the core difference between #Solarpunk and hypercapitalist #Cyberpunk dystopias... @kkarhan @0xF21D @Kavus @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor I have a theory that at the apex of Maslow's hierarchy, the megarich all become philosophers obsessed with trying to assert their foundational beliefs as objective truth, and that this is the only thing that takes precedence over material concerns. A common core tenant is that society is and always will be adversarial and zero-sum. Nothing would cause them greater existential trauma than people supporting each other and all benefiting. @FullyAutomatedRPG @kkarhan @Kavus @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor They're pretty far along after having dismantled the open internet. @0xF21D @FullyAutomatedRPG @Kavus @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor also we see that kind of #hierachical and #classist thinking already , with some #TechBros and #Billionaires wanting to turn the #SiliconValley into a #paywalled #GatedCommunity where they'll get all the good and nice urbanization with walkable- & bikeable cities as well as #PublicTransport whilst basically banning everyone who isn't working for them. - Kinda like #Lanai, but worse!https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanai @kkarhan @0xF21D @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor I fear it's not that simple. For musk and like-minded people, #solarpunk is a total dystopia. Equality? Radical democracy? How dare you stop superior people from rising to their rightful positions above the masses? Curbing technological advancements in favour of sustainability? Clearly you've lost the big picture! End capitalism? The economy will be terribly inefficient! @0xF21D @lex @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor the #sarcasm is strong in this one but joles aside some #AnCap|s and #Musk-Fanboys do believe that... @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor In other words, the best way to clean a cybertruck is with electricity? 800 volts I believe? @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor you could always try cleaning a Cybertruck with battery acid. @thewarragulman @NanoRaptor "Dumbass tries to hose down his cybertruck at a gas station, endangers everybody" is a headline I expect to see any day now. |
@thewarragulman @NanoRaptor The actual best way to clean the panels on a DeLorean is with soap and water, after priming and painting the fucking things.
