Good to know this isn’t about fuckcars at all, it’s about fuck Tesla and changes to upset the Gas industry.

Good to know as I’d rather enjoyed Lemmy but if it’s a Russia, Saudi and US lobby pushing their agenda here, ohh well

They where made to open car doors and Tesla chose a design which you can find on cars from 1990 on sportscars to reduce drag and increase efficiency.

But ok let’s stick to the pickup truck handles and efficient…

So anyone in a sports car? Porsche, Massaratti, Audi, Ferrari and many others used these way before Tesla…

I have had many people ride in my Tesla and most of them opened the door by pulling the emergency handle… By instinct. So great job reading a headline and commenting without ever being in a Tesla, calling something you have never seen “bad design”.

Some kind of argument this group deals with when people say " busses/trains don’t work [instead made up thing they have never seen]"

Great job furthering the cause or any change at improving anything.

It is. I very much enjoy fuckcars and push for public transport when possible. However I hate the traditional car companies more for lying and burying alternatives to ICE more than I do the one company that in 10 years changed a stagnant Gas/Benzin polluting product which got bigger and bigger to a now Electric alternatives. That includes the side effect in my city for electric busses which were not a thing before said company and the change in zeitgeist around EV vs ICE.

So yes I’m in fuck cars and I am saying while I hate the current CEO of the company, I also recognize their success have pushed and improved my local public transport system and city (which in 2030 will ban all ICE cars from its center with a much larger push towards public alternatives at the same time).

Many people in my Tesla have janked the emergency handle, rather than clicking the button to get out without any emergency, there isn’t any Door handle, there is the emergency handle… Which kinda proves my point and your outrage comment proves you haven’t even been in a Tesla yet comment on “it’s bad design”.

Same kind of comments from people against seatbelts when they were introduced. “It’s not the standard and people will burn in their cars” without seeing or trying a seatbelt.

It very much is because it’s a Tesla because my point about Tesla not being the only car which use electric windows control pre opening the door. Yet people hating on “EV needs power to get out” failing to realise that many Gas powered vehicles require the same thing. Some even implemented explosives that need to push the door off to be able to get out.

Why is it Lemmy is okay with Outrage culture when it targets Tesla/SpaceX/Apple, yet criticized else where?

So reading these comments most people don’t understand that many cars have electronic doors for several valid design reasons and yet all I have seen have manual overrides. Tesla as many other cars without window trims have to lower the glass before you can open the door. Most if not all cars even German makes do this electronicly but like my Tesla, have a manual handle that mechanicly drops the glass windows panel so you can open normally.

Both my Tesla and friends VW Benzin(Gas) car som 15 years ago use the same system… If the car have no trim and electronic windows, you also have this design issue, which extends this to ALL car brands.

But yea let’s throw reason out the window and yell “Tesla bad!!!”…

How if it is true some models don’t have the manual override (and that might include none Tesla cars if there indeed is no regulation that mandates it) I feel bad for the people not knowing or the safety ratings ignoring this oversight.

I can just say, mine does and is mentioned in the safety rating used in EU.

You made the mistake of commenting positively on a product you like on an lemmy post about that product. People on lemmy post only about companies to hate on them, much of the time without reading, thinking or knowing anything about it. And yes everyone who don’t jump on the bandwagon is downvoted.

Apple and Tesla seems to be the main targets, yet no valid alternatives or constructive discussions are ever to be had.

Spot on 😆

So you do use an iPhone great! Because it’s the only phone OS not bypassable by your own government and FaceID is optional. Making their password unlock th most secure in the industry and being someone of high authentication security you must then use it right?

Ofc you don’t, you just shit on an optional featur bacuse you have other totally unrelated issues with the device or should I say company…

Sad when a secure and fast way to unlock your device is seen as a vulnerability, just because you live in a 3rd world country military state where you fear and are in odds with your governments law enforcement. For the rest of us, it’s secure and like others said, easy to turn off with a few button presses if the need arises.

Agree with the others. Also try not using the word “Killing” on a platform famous for using automated moderation almost exclusively. The word is fine in the context you are using, but it will probably trigger a few mod bots.
