For like 3 hours, it was glorious as my friend group wondered what part of the Cybertruck could have spontaneously combusted.

Then video came out and there's colorful lights and we still weren't sure.

It took a official report before we accepted it was a car bomb.

The Delorean fan in me loves the asthetic and used to get jealous.

Cyber trucks being POS deathtraps that basically fall to pieces when you breath on them, their inability to do anything a normal truck can do, and the fact they make you bleed touching an door alleviated that completely.

So thanks for making them embarrassing junkers, Elon.

I keep hearing that they keep falling apart and catching fire, yet no one links pictures. I have seen exactly one out of the 27 thousand that is claimed to have had a battery fire and looks like it did.

Bro, what's Elon's cock taste like? You've been sucking it all over this thread.

I almost agree with you, but the subtle changes made from the concept to reality make it not even look cool like it could've

I don't think you can compare the two really.

Except that Delorean does not equal a Cyber Truck.

Self controlled IED

[–] rickdg@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (6 children)

akchually this can be legitimately spinned in favour of tesla

police are already saying that the explosion wasn’t as bad because it went off inside a cybertruck

Cops will say any damn thing that lets them lick the boot

Yeah, it would have been worse if it went off inside something valuable

Pedestrians should be thankful that the windows gave out so easily, otherwise the body panels might've turned into giant shrapnel.

Or that the guy wasn't good at bombs. If it has been filled with ANFO they would have been identifying victims from tiny parts and investigating by video evidence. Many in the hotel would have been killed

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I remember ANFO from Mythbusters. It really hates cement trucks and train station mock-ups.
