Each time I see a new article about drop in sales, the percentage is higher. I love it.
I keep thinking it’s same article being reposted before noticing the drop is 10-15% greater than the last time I saw it. I hope he’s kicked from Europe entirely.
If you buy a Tesla now, it says something about you as a person…

Aren’t there alternatives to Paypal, like Wise and Revolut?
Germany tries to make one every two years. The newest one is called Wero/kwitt
Ah, I should have read down further. I’ll look those up.
I actively boycott Zuckerberg’s offerings bar WhatsApp coz the bastard bought it out from under us. Fuck him, fuck Meta
Agreed, though I don’t think Thiel is involved in Paypal anymore.

PayPal was not founded by Musk

Please actually read the article
The company was originally established by Max Levchin, Peter Thiel, and Luke Nosek in December 1998 as Fieldlink. Later it was renamed Confinity,[9] a company which developed security software for hand-held devices.[10] When it had no success with that business model, it switched its focus to a digital wallet.[11] The first version of the PayPal electronic payments system was launched in 1999.[12]
In March 2000, Confinity merged with X.com, an online financial services company founded in March 1999 by Elon Musk, Harris Fricker, Christopher Payne, and Ed Ho.
Musk founded a company that merged with the company that invented PayPal.

Is there a Canadian version of paypal that works the same way? I was searching but couldn’t find one and ever since AI came around my business shrank to almost nothing. Also, other than having an old nearly defunct facebook account, what $ would I be unwittingly giving to Zuckerberg? Serious and naïve question.

Not quite but credit cards and Interac e-Transfer.
Good.
Say what you will about faceless corps, but toyota won’t send some jackass out a the public face to do sieg hail, and be the gleeful butcher of government programs.
You have to be nestel levels of horrific before it breaks out of the corporate bubble.
Gone from the coolest car to the most embarrassing, and these people are supposed to be smart.
Let’s get it to 90%. We can do it.
go big or go home : 100%
70% is just rookie numbers
Deliver is not the same as sales. They are also launching a new model this summer so people could just be waiting. I know it’s a great news story, Europe bands together against Musk to show dissatisfaction with American politics, but it may not be true. If someone could find Tesla reports that delivers are far lower than expected I will change my mind.
I wanted to find their predictions for production in Q1 2025 to see if they planned for less deliveries before all this Musk hit the news cycle. The closest I got as 2024 Q2 production numbers. https://ir.tesla.com/press-release/tesla-vehicle-production-deliveries-and-date-financial-results-webcast-second-quarter-2024
Yeah I’ll believe it when I see the trend last more than a month or 2
And the US tax payer is going to have to foot the bill on it…Elon sucks goldfish dick
So? You subsidised him since forever.
Not a peep when he demanded to keep his factories open in full Covid times or plenty more scummy things.
Only when he became a Trumper he was no longer great papa Elon for half of you.What makes you think I wasn’t verbally critical of him? I was telling ppl that were praising him that he seemed to virtue signal and seemed shady back in 2017. I was told I was looking too much into it. But in retrospect…
OK I was generalising.
Nothing in your comment says you aren’t be one of those who simply don’t like him NOW.
Statistically more chance of that since all I saw for years was cringe papa elon, big brain Tony Stark bootlicking while it was indeed clear for anyone to see what a douche he was (not visibly fascist tho).
But Americans love their oligarch heroes.
Most people still think Bill Gates is a great philanthropist, while he is also an awful person with a more acceptable personality and image.Tim Urban put his established “accessible intellectual blogger” credibility behind some truly convincing pro-Musk propaganda pieces on Wait But Why back in ~2015 or so, which at the time were inspiring and felt very believable for people searching for signs of an improving future. For me, Musk fell hard from that grace during the Thailand cave rescue when he attacked that British caver in the most absolutely childish way. I really resent that Urban hasn’t gone back to readdress those old blog posts, but maybe he’s just another paid shill.
The only creatures that should buy a Tesla are from the fucking AfD.
Lol definitely won’t, they’re super anti-EV after all. I mean, they even want to get rid of all wind power plants. xD
This is why I wouldn’t put it past them to try to hide the real sales numbers. Wouldn’t surprise me if they’re down 90+ percent and the company is effectively dead already. The board of directors are Elon’s creatures and their personal wealth will depend on keeping the facade (and stock price) up so they aren’t about to cry foul.
I live in one of the Eastern countries and surprisingly most tesla owners I see on the street are from Ukraine. We don’t even have developed infrastructure to use that car.
Because only rich Ukranians could afford them, and the rich ones fled Ukraine when the war kicked up.
Beautiful news.
Well I don’t want to celebrate in advance, Model Y facelift just released, let’s hope this trend continues and doesn’t show a reversal.
My heart pumps purple piss for fElon.
They are on track to be worth less than BYD, the two will likely cross over quite soon.
Next, space x?
In shorttime growth in a billion company…this is poisioness for tesla…elon all te blame…reminder of history is bad this company must be wiped out
