Lol at people posting copium in response to it
however everybody a lil bit involved in industry knows that this sort of things on photos are considered normal in first steps of mass production.
I’ll pull my “I actually work in manufacturing” card and reply: lol, no it isn’t. This is the type of shit you work out when you’re setting up the production line. How the fuck did these pass final inspection? Did they even do a final inspection?
I also used to work in manufacturing and whenever we started making a new product, the first batch of units is hand-checked by operations, then hand-checked by engineering, then a handful are kept as gold standards references. If there are any problems, it’s all hands on deck working overtime to get them fixed immediately, because YOU DON’T KEEP MAKING FAULTY SHIT.
I’m also going to pull my manufacturing card and second @NewAcctWhoDis@hexbear.net. Not only is this shit that you work out when you’re setting up the production line, this is stuff that I would expect from a manufacturing product that has been running for a few years and isn’t subjected to as much scrutiny in Quality Control because the defect and liability statistics for it are well known and within parameters, therefore it is more cost effective to just deal with problems as they crop up on the consumer end.
This coming out of a new product, fresh off the line with new processes, is a sign of a complete lack of quality control. That said, there is absolutely no way that they are ever going to make this SolidWorks abomination look good at-scale. You just can’t guarantee that level of precision to make those block structures look clean (not that Tesla has good QC for their paneling on their rounded edges and doors anyways). It continues to boggle my mind that any engineer actually signed off on this. I mean, I guess I can see it from a sufficiently bazinga-ed mechanical engineer, but they must not have consulted with a single manufacturing engineer before designing this thing. I would absolutely hate to be on the line in any capacity for this project.
Yeah, what are they trying to say? That you mass produce and sell garbage for a while and then only after you set up more factories you fix it? I thought the whole point of mass production (outside of maybe a food context) was that you can take something very precise and then replicate it without losing any precision, letting you produce a consistent product on a large scale.
Wait so when the Marketing Department needs to do a prerelease photoshoot of the brand new flagship product, they arent asking you to send them the worst shit you have ever seen??
Well obviously they send their best models to the customers and the worst models for marketing purposes.
This makes people extra satisfied when they order a piece of garbage and instead get the most meticulously crafted, perfect vehicle in existence.
But we all knew Elon is a marketing genius from when he renamed twitter to X, giving free marketing when everyone started saying things like “wtf is x.com? Is it like xvids?” and “twitter fucking sucks now, I mean x dot com fucking sucks now.”

Yes, but only if it’s December 1941, your factory was just dumped in a field in Siberia two hours ago and the Red Army expects the first T-34 to roll off your line tomorrow morning.
Elon took my anti-aliasing, can’t have shit in 2023
calling it now, air will get through the body panel gaps, and due to the linear/planar panels, will lift them completely off the car body
the car itself will also explode but this is nothing new for a tesla
You know how clothing knockoffs will often just take a screenshot of the piece they wanna copy and print that screenshot? This feels like the 3D equivalent of that.
i want to see someone buy this and drive it around in my town. just because i could use some extra laughs
I’ve had two people show me their pre order and watched them both visibly deflate when I said “Oh hey it’s the Halo car.”
I had a teammate see one in our parking lots and he said “this is one of the benefits of working in Silicon Valley, we get to see cool cutting edge technology like this all the time”
But an AI robot will scoop the ice cream automatically!!! Isn’t it great how they don’t even have to confront how much of their lifestyle is built off the backs of highly exploited low wage labor, even domestically?
Can’t wait to hear the hiss as the atmosphere leaks out of the seams of the X brand model X space colony ship halfway to Mars.
That shits self-destructing the moment ground control announces they’ve passed cis-lunar orbit
