Quote:Decent people care when self-aggrandizing lying lunatics, such as yourself, Trump and Musk, run their mouths constantly, bragging about personal accomplishments that don't exist. You would think somebody would beat Trump and Musk to death to shut their mouths, but nobody will do it. At least not until now, because somebody died:

Elon Musk’s Self-Driving Tesla Lies Are Finally Catching Up To Him
For nearly a decade Elon Musk has claimed Teslas can truly drive themselves. They can’t. Now California regulators, a Miami jury and a new class action suit are calling him on it.

A federal judge in San Francisco just greenlit a class action lawsuit by Tesla owners to sue the carmaker for exaggerated claims by CEO Elon Musk and the company about the self-driving capability of its electric vehicles that stretch all the way back to 2016. It’s the latest blow to plans by the world’s richest person to reposition Tesla as a leader in artificial intelligence and autonomous driving amid a dramatic slowdown in its EV sales.
Nine years ago, Elon Musk told reporters that Tesla was taking a bold leap into the future by equipping its electric lineup with all the tech it would ever need to one day operate as truly autonomous vehicles.
“The full autonomy hardware suite will be standard on all vehicles Tesla makes from here on out,” Musk said. When fully utilized at some later date, as the AI-enabled software was refined, an array of digital cameras, ultrasonic sensors and radar would give Teslas full “Level 5” autonomy – a designation indicating a robotic ability to drive under all conditions.
It wasn’t true then and still isn’t.
From hyperloops to solar roofs to trillion-dollar savings from federal budget cuts by DOGE, Musk has developed a reputation for excessive boasts and telling outright whoppers. For years, that habit hasn’t been a big problem for his companies, his image or wealth, but it’s shaping up to be one for Tesla, already stung by a 13% drop in its global EV sales in the first half of 2025.
The class-action suit comes on the heels of a separate federal case in Miami this month in which a jury determined that Tesla bore some responsibility for a fatal 2019 crash that occurred while its Autopilot feature was engaged, and ordered the company to pay $243 million in damages. Meanwhile, the company could temporarily lose its ability to sell cars in California, its top U.S. market, if a judge in a case brought by the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles determines it misled consumers by overstating the self-driving ability of its vehicles.
“The overarching thing is none of this is new. This has all been a long time coming,” said Phil Koopman, an autonomous vehicle tech researcher and professor emeritus at Carnegie Mellon University. “We're sort of seeing the pieces fall into place now, but it’s not out of the blue by any stretch.”
Neither Musk nor Tesla responded to a request for comment.
“Right now, there are real robotaxis carrying real people on real roads. None of them is a Tesla.”
The legal setbacks aren’t a huge financial problem, at least so far, but a reputational one as they undercut Musk’s continued rhetoric about Tesla being a leader in autonomous driving, despite no hard evidence to support it. Alphabet’s Waymo, which operates commercial robotaxis in five major U.S. cities and is testing in 10 more, has solidified its position as the dominant player in that space. Musk said on Tesla’s results call that the company will ultimately overtake Waymo because its system is much cheaper, though a robotaxi pilot Tesla launched in Austin in June, with human safety drivers in the front seat, suggests it has a

X Agrees to Settle $500M Class-Action Lawsuit Over 2022 Layoffs, Severance
The company, then known as Twitter, laid off almost 60% of its employees after Musk’s acquisition and did not honor severance agreements, according to a lawsuit.

Elon Musk’s X has agreed to settle with thousands of former employees who sued the company after they were dismissed following Musk’s 2022 takeover.
The company, then known as Twitter, laid off almost 60% of its employees after Musk’s acquisition, affecting nearly the entire content moderation and communications teams.
Employees sued, alleging that 6,000 former Twitter employees were owed $500 million or more in collective severance pay. Courtney McMillian, the company’s former Head of People Experience, and Ronald Cooper, a former operations manager, claimed that X failed to adequately inform staff about changes to their severance plan and did not adhere to the plan that was in place before Musk bought Twitter.
The case was dismissed in July 2024, but the judge left the door open for McMillian to file another, amended suit. That suit was scheduled to go before a federal appellate court next month, according to Bloomberg Law.
Employees were originally promised two months of base pay, with an additional week for every year they had been at the company, according to the filing. However, the lawsuit alleged that employees, in many cases, received only one month’s pay.
This isn’t the end of X’s employment disputes. In 2024, some of Twitter’s former top brass, including CEO Parag Agrawal, Chief Financial Officer Ned Segal, Chief Legal Counsel Vijaya Gadde, and General Counsel Sean Edgett, filed a separate lawsuit claiming they were owed more than $128 million in unpaid severance.
The platform also faces the threat of a criminal investigation in France for alleged “organized interference," as well as a lawsuit alleging X was negligent in its handling of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and slow-walked its response to reports.

Quote:There is a reason why Musk had children with twelve ( or is it twenty? ) different women and yet none of those women will live with him. Same reason that Trump (the rapist, sex obsessed, frequently divorced, hooker briber, Jeffrey Epstein's best friend) was Musk's pal, until their conflict, doubtlessly about sex. Trump and Musk are nuts.

Shut the fuck up, idiot.
Nobody cares.
And if you had one single person in the Democratic Party that wasn't a lying piece of shit just as bad or worse than anybody you complain about in the Republican Party, somebody might give a shit.
But you don't, so you don't.
If you've got nothing productive or useful to say, shut the fuck up and die already.
