The more likely case is that the equipment (an autonomous cab) is unprofitable to own once you factor in risk with liability and damages.
This is most likely just a way to offload liability
And to make the owners pay for maintenance and electricity.
If they lock the feature behind a higher price tier, a subscription, or a cut of the profits, it's a low-risk income stream with minimal expenses.
The last one he looks happy.
If only. That's the "I'm agitated and I will bite your fucking finger if you come even the slightest bit closer" look.
Crest slicked back = "agitated"
Beak open = "I will bite"
All you had to do was say nothing, Timmy.
You're an asshole, but only PC gamers had a reason to care—because you tried to buy your way into a dominant position by employing anti-consumer, monopolistic practices like paying for distribution exclusivity deals with third-party publishers.
The best possible choice here, clearly, was to voluntarily align yourself (and by association, Epic Games) with Nazis and pedophiles. I sincerely hope the board forces you to resign, you absolute chode.
“I literally lost my only friend overnight with no warning,” one person posted on Reddit
It was meant to be satirical at the time, but maybe Futurama wasn't entirely off the mark. That Redditor isn't quite at that level, but it's still probably not healthy to form an emotional attachment to the Markov chain equivalent of a sycophantic yes-man.
Democratic governments should allow all voices to be heard, not silence speech they dislike.
That's real fucking rich coming from the government that:
- Removed all references to "trans-" regardless of context.
- Retaliates against left-leaning press.
- Calls information they dislike "fake news".
- Sends immigrants to concentration camps.
Not good enough. His personal wealth is still backed by his ownership in Tesla stocks, and he'll keep profiting and using them to bankroll his fascist fuckery and geopolitical interference.
Force him to sell his shares and divest.

Valve wins by doing nothing... it's a tale as old as time.
Steam's market share is a huge factor in why their competition never succeeds, but it's hardly the only reason. Steam is a whole platform, not just a launcher or storefront. And they're also cognizant that the consumers are not just a revenue source to be milked, but actually long-term customers whose loyalty is important.
It really shouldn't be a surprise that when you enter an established market, you're not going to accomplish shit by providing a lesser service while simultaneously treating the consumer worse.
Critics argue Musk is driven by conflicts of interest
I'm shocked, I say. Flabbergasted. Nonplussed. Flummoxed.
The rich hypocritical narcissistic shithead is using his status and position to amass even more wealth that he won't ever use in his lifetime? Say it ain't so!
Fuck Musk and everything he stands for.
You think that's bad? They have four of these "promo" dialogs to push users to the Reddit ~~spyware~~ app.
- Unreviewed community (the one you're seeing).
- NSFW content.
- Trending content (yes, you read that right).
- Special events (like r/place).
Fuck Spez.
