Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

You don't need Jedi powers when you have more money than many nations.

That's the last sign you see before your Tesla choses to drive you into a pillar, a truck or whatever else.

Tesla, Trump Transition Team Both Oppose Car Crash Reporting Regulation

Tesla-Trump Transition Team Opposes Car Crash Reporting Regulation

[–] elrik@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Tesla believes it is better at reporting crash data than its competitors, and so the discrepancy in numbers makes them look bad.

It's almost as though leaving safety and associated reporting requirements in the hands of private business doesn't work out for consumers. If only there was some public institution that would hold all vehicle manufacturers accountable and enforce reporting requirements. I cannot possibly imagine how that would work though. /s

How clearly can Musk telegraph that if you want safety, you shouldn't drive a Tesla? More evidence that he is a genius CEO.

I wonder how quickly the safety of new US cars will plummet

[–] Saljid@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

And their international sales

I've seen the video of an orangutan driving a golf cart.

I've seen that the orange man likes playing golf.

Question: Can the orange man even drive a car? 🤔

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 7 points 1 year ago

Chances are he can't, growing up in New York and having been chauffeured his whole life.

[–] Pringles@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

That savage is known for driving his golf carts over the greens. That alone shows how mentally unfit he is to be responsible for anything. That being said, I've never seen him drive an actual car, so I have no idea.

Interesting, makes sense though. I wonder if he ever drove anything bigger than a golf cart before he was ever president?

So what's he gonna do with that Cybertruck now? Go sit in the back and suck Elon off?

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Why? Seems like wasted energy.
