Oh, that planned obsolescence that's going to be forced on us will be wild. Phones programmed to self destruct after 18 months and shit

 

[zeke]

Had our monthly townhall at work. This time our VP of sales was leading it. Funny nugget was they experimented with an AI agent for sales leads. Without any instruction, it started offering prospective clients $100 giftcards if they met with the sales team. So uh, they stopped using it.

 

[zeke]

pretty cool.

So apparently these “rockets” are powered by a 200 litre tank of extremely highly pressurized nitrogen gas (~10,000 PSI) that’s stored underneath the two front seats.

So, uhhh, yeah. You’d basically be driving around with a fucking bomb under your seat that, if ruptured in an accident, would immediately turn you, your passenger, your vehicle and anything else in the immediate vicinity into a cloud of pink mist & high-velocity metal, plastic & composite shrapnel.

I'm guessing the entire battery was removed to make that fit and make the car way lighter.

If the car was even made from practical materials of course.

 

[Kritter]

I think they pulled this entire script from the ‘Dukes of Hazzard’

My neck and back hurt just looking at the jarring thrust to get it in the air. Very cool stunt though.
