SpaceX is too big to fail. It's important for national security.

I wonder if Elon wants to tangle all his businesses into SpaceX so they are all kept afloat by SpaceX's importance.

I think he will spin Tesla off since electrification and autonomy are no longer cool (he can’t build good quality cars or reliable FSD)

FSD is incredibly reliable. Build quality of US built cars is middle of the pack, Europe/China built Teslas are top of the pack.

Oh c'mon now. Damn model 3 and model S I have driven were considerably lower quality interiors than an ass end Citroen or Fiat. The Model S, a 2023 model the doors didn't even fit properly. And that was all Europe.

As for FSD, nope. Unless you redefine the word reliable.

Edit: I owned a 2018 Model S as well. Literally the worst fucking car I have ever owned or driven.

I disagree. Model 3 has soft touch everywhere. Freaking bmw 3 series has plastic on most frequently touched bits.

Since you are in europe you have no idea how good fsd is.

BMW actually has a reasonable control surface though, not a grand user interface experiment by some crack heads.

As I'm in Europe I just get trains.

The bmw interface is the actual fucking joke. Everything you need on Teslas is accessible from the steering wheel in addition to the touchscreen.

Apart from the speedometer which is outside your safe FOV in the Tesla.

And everything in the BMW you should be dealing with when driving is on or around the steering wheel.

The article you linked agrees with me. Greatest resolution in the macula which is a span of approximately 6 degrees from the centre.

Sigh...

No, it agrees with me. You’re NEVER looking at the road and reading your speed at the same time.
