Tesla workers report explosions, concussions, and grisly robot injuries at Texas factory
It seems "move fast and break stuff" includes breaking people
Is that even a surprise after he moved to Texas to get less worker protections?
I consider anyone still driving a Tesla to be a moron at this point.
A lot of people bought a lot of Tesla over the years and aren't going to sell.
But anyone buying one? At best they are a class traitor and increasingly likely support White supremacy and transphobia
It's really sad because prior to being acquired by Musk the company was actually doing something really interesting and disrupting an industry badly in need of a shakeup. Then muskrat comes in, ousts the founder, steals the credit, and proceeds to fuck everything up.
So far Space-X has managed to avoid Musk screwing things up, I guess actual rocket science is too technical for Musk to micromanage it to death. In a perfect world they would manage to oust him from the company completely and continue doing good work, but I guess we'll see how it turns out. Hopefully when Musk gets tired of breaking his new toy over at Twitter he finds something else to fuck up and doesn't head back to Space-X.
Tesla, the official car of the KKK!
There isn't much decent choice in a lot of the price range.
Another one for the Lemmy NPC collection, thanks.
Grisly robot injuries?!
Like bear robot or regular robots, just gravely wounded?
But are the robots racist?
i knew those mechanical bears were a bad idea
This is the best summary I could come up with:
As Tesla prepares to deliver its first Cybertrucks to customers, a new report paints a grisly picture of the Texas factory where the truck is being built, including a casting machine explosion and a robot allegedly goring a worker.
One incident in 2021 involved an engineer who approached a supposed shutdown robot arm but got clawed and pinned to the wall by the machine performing its programmed motions.
A witness who saw surveillance video said the explosion sent a ball of fire and smoke into the air, damaged the die, and curled up a door that seals the chamber.
In June, contractors installing metal grating for elevated walkways in the factory fell to the ground due to a lack of protective equipment.
It’s not the only time things fell from above: The Information reports incidents of air conditioning ducts, steel beams, and other building materials crashing to the ground near autoworkers.
Tesla has been accused of underreporting injuries and of failing to address hazards in an outdoor tent that was erected for the assembly line, incurring fines.
The original article contains 567 words, the summary contains 177 words. Saved 69%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
This is some great inspiration for a horror movie.
I legitimately believe Elon uses a bot army.
The good news is they have vastly overrated range and break in the rain
He probably does there was once a reddit post that linked to the job posting for "Internet influencers" for him. I think that was about 5 years ago and if he did that then.
he doesn't need a bot army, he has plenty of fanbois
Apparently it’s actually evil robot unicorns, doling out grisly injuries with their razor sharp horns.
