A Cybertruck ‘blew up’ outside Trump’s hotel in Las Vegas

It’s still not clear what caused the fire

It's a Cybertruck.

Is this an omen for the new year or just a fitting metaphor for it?

Whoever is in charge of writing this simulation is just getting lazy.

Wait, your telling me this was on purpose? I just thought the cyberjunk was so shit, someone visiting the building just HAPPENED to blow up

The weirdest thing about a cybertruck bomb is that the world has become so shit that it's not even interesting. Like, I just cannot care because every day something insane happens.

That's the real fucking signal IMO.

It's like the opposite of early-2000s games, where the car models had an ever-growing poly count but the fire was still an animated 2d sprite.

A cybertruck in it's natural habitat

Looks a lot like a trunk load of fireworks exploded.

Good video on the Guardian's channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pq9_zvpamUk

Video on the YT channel of The Times. Don't know who is talking but they killed me: https://youtu.be/JrDnramp8i8?t=34

Says a lot that like nobody knew what to make of it until the propane tanks were found.

Its still unclear if the driver intended for it to explode or if somebody tossed a bunch of flammables in the back and the truck lit it.

Where the fuck are mods....

Like holy fuck, all the comments blatantly ignore everything?

2 cars rented from the same company both used clearly for terror and all you got to say is "Roflmao! Just Tesla things!"

Fuck this place, worse than Guardian comment section. Yes I am angry and yes I do expect better. I found more civil comments on reddit.

The irony in the headline alone is enough sustenance to carry me through the lean months ahead.

It must be a metaphor of Trump/Musk presidency 🤣🤣🤣

IntentionalRennaissance.

That entrance doesn't even look 2nd rate, it looks more like a 3rd rate hotel.
I thought Trump liked things to look expensive, but this looks like it's built with the cheapest of the cheapest standard parts available.

Sounds like it's full of fireworks.

Praise the cameraman.

the fire was put out within an hour

How does that work? I thought that with electrical car battery fires, you basically just had to spray water to keep it cool until it was done with what it wanted to do.

I'm so cold right now. I could use a cybertruck in the fireplace right now.

Foreshadowing

Someone tried to copycat the FBI building bomb from 1995.

lol

I'm hoping the vehicle's onboard camera views are released. Teslas have many cameras, including one watching the interior. They are all stored in the vehicle and unless all online activity is disabled are uploaded to Tesla for training the fleet and investigating failures

Tesla almost certainly know who owns or owned the vehicle and has video of whoever most recently drove it, possibly including view into the cargo area which seems to have been filled with a fire bomb
