I'll give Tesla a bargain basement deal and take the job for 1% of that, and can guarantee I will be less of an obstacle to improvement.

No balls, you won't do it!

It's typically a bad idea in negotiations to say "the thing you want to happen will happen if you don't do what I want!"

warned

Warned or promised? Don't threaten shareholders with a good time.

I might buy some stock so I can vote no.

Activist investing, I like it.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 10 months ago

Il run tesla for half that, and by simply doing nothing I will do a much better job than Musk.

The stock will go through the roof if he goes....It'll drop at first as the fanboys bail, but then institution's will have faith again and invest and it will pop off when he stops kneecapping the company.

I don’t know enough to have my own solid thoughts on this, but people I trust and know more than me have all said that Tesla is wildly over valued compared with any other auto makers and considering their P to E. Considering that, I’ve been thinking that once the Musk distortion field goes away, the price may just drop down to where it “should be” by normal standards.

My heart agrees with what you’ve said, implying that musk is actually holding back the price at this point, but my brain says that might not actually be true.

Didn't he just steal a bunch of GPUs from Tesla for use at Twiter?

I'm sure that another SEC investigation will be done for this and Elon will drag it out for years.

[–] [email protected] 72 points 10 months ago

That is the best thing that could happen to Tesla right now.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

WYM, warned? Warnings are used for bad things.

Call his bluff!

Were you just made a moderator of c/news, @jeffw? If so, congratulations!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Moderating a forum isn't really a thing to be proud of or congratulate someone for squid.

"Oh you were just made a moderator? I'm sorry." is more appropriate.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

"My condolences"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago

It's true, we do have a lot of thankless work to do (I moderate a bunch of communities), but we also, or at least I do, try to promote community growth and discussion. I sort of view my jobs as much as an ambassador for the community as I am someone who enforces rules.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

IM GONNA LEAVE, I SWEAR!!!! In just two more years...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

Don't threaten me with a good time!

I would consider buying a Tesla after a couple years then ... maybe.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

We're just 1 year away from the pay out, same planning as FSD and others "predictions"!
