Lucidlethargy,

This is misinformation and I just really want everyone to be aware of it.

The Cybertruck is NOT a BOAT! It is, however, a “submersible vehicle”. This means it can go underwater up to, but NOT exceeding, 4,000 meters.

This will, amazingly, bring you to the titanic within around 200 meters of the max. This said, please be careful when you get close to the maximum specified depth.

Keep on Truckin’ Cybertruck owners! You are so very special, unique, and powerful. Go find your dreams!

pinkyprincessfiona,

I feel so lost…. What’s going on???

There were those rich people who died when their submarine was squashed by pressure during their attempt to reach titanic and let’s say no one was sad here. And now op encourages supertruck owners to maybe end up in a similar situation as a somewhat dark joke.

Another take would be a coupon for landlords only titanic dive. I mean I am one but like no one will read that far

zbyte64,

The disclaimer just means you’re innovating.

Here’s an excellent video about the Titanic wreck as it sits today which is worth a watch.

explodicle,

There’s definitely gold.

It’ll get hard, too (rigor mortis)

DannyMac,

Don’t forget to put the cyber truck in car wash mode first

Pika,

The fact that I can’t tell if you are joking or if there’s actually a car wash mode scares me lmao

There actually is a car wash mode for the cybertruck. It was mentioned in that article about the guy who’s cybertruck lost power for like 6 hours or something after it got rained on.

Pika,

I just read the how to clean your Cyber truck article from Tesla and holy cow you might as well have written purchase vehicle, store directly in garage indefinitely, cause just about anything damages it lol

the link if anyone else was curious

milicent_bystandr,

If taking Cybertruck to an automatic car wash is necessary, Car Wash Mode closes all windows, locks the charge port, and disables windshield wipers, Sentry Mode, and walk-away door locking.

Doesn’t seem too stupid to me. The rest of your link looks mild enough too, just don’t use anything harsh on your exterior or the steel won’t look its best any more.

Then again, I forget the sort of rich person who buys a Tesla is also probably the sort of person who cries if it doesn’t look brand new every day, so yeah - sneeze and your beloved car is irrevocably besmirched.

Pika,

I was moreso referring to the do not wash in the sun, do not use hot water, do not use car washes that use pre-cleaners, and the fact that apperently having tree resin or dead insects on the vehicle is enough to cause corrosion of it.

I agree the carwash mode sounds logical, I’ve just never heard of it or needed it for any of my vehicles, I just don’t open the doors or windows in the wash.

hoss,

Yes there was a law suit about it

Thorny_Insight,

Many new cars have a carwash mode. Not in any way exclusive to the cybertruck.

kerrigan778,

Rather important for rain sensing windshield wipers to not immediately break

Kolanaki,
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

If that’s what it’s for, then that makes sense. Wouldn’t want the wipers going on while you’re in a drive-thru car wash. None of the articles mentioned that feature, making it seem like it’s doing something to protect the electronics from getting wet. Especially since they were articles about damage from being wet. lol

the_crotch,

It does close the charging port, which one would think should be closed anyway when the car is running

Wizard_Pope,
@Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world avatar

I mean if you have the automatic mode constantly on it mightbe an issue. If you have the wipers off I see no reason for that.

StoneyDcrew,

WARNING: this will only work if you drive it with a PlayStation controller.

helpImTrappedOnline,

Sony controllers will not work, it must be a bootleg controller that only works on Windows and requires sketchy drivers.

the ai to determine if you will make it back okay

def will_i_make_it_back_okay(my_present_circumstances):
  return False

deegeese,

AI can only make inferences based on existing data. Statistically speaking the vast majority of people who have visited the Titanic wreck came back safely, so the AI will say True.

polonius-rex, (edited )

depends on what kind of ai you're talking about

deegeese,

I’ve described the most common AI in use today. What kind are you talking about?

polonius-rex, (edited )

no you haven't

you've described the buzzword ai = neural network

e.g. video game ai has existed far longer and has been in the public consciousness far longer and it's mostly just a decision tree, or at best, an alpha-beta tree

While I’m not downvoting you, you’re making a similar comment to “don’t you mean facial tissue?” when someone asks for a kleenex. Technically correct but everyone knows what is meant by the initial comment.

polonius-rex,

my guy, i'm not the one invoking pedantry

i'm invoking the opposite of pedantry

deegeese,

I suggested you might have missed a potential joke, and you’re debating the definition of AI.

pkmkdz,

you’re correct, ai is entire field of computer science, machine learning is a sub-category

The AI craze just made people associate term incorrectly, but what can you do

Also the training dataset includes several articles from The Onion so it will probably actively encourage the user to leave their material possessions and become a fish person.

xx3rawr,

Get your trains off here. We only travel by hyperloop pods

Lucidlethargy,

You’re just a hater, and I’m so tired of seeing Musk haters!

The Cybertruck can absolutely make it down there. Go look it up, it’s all there for everyone to read! I use ask.com, myself. It’s a lot better than dogpile these days. Stay ahead of the trends, everyone.

BudgetBandit,

Shoot to the moon

TropicalDingdong,

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

All the other cyber trucks didn’t come back because they’re too busy filling their truck up with gold you better get there fast before they get it all

Lucidlethargy,

Nobody talks about this! There is approximately 34 TONS of gold hidden within the wreck of the Titanic. If I could afford such a cool car as the Cybertruck, I’d drive it into the nearest harbor and set sail for the 2024 gold rush that is the Titanic’s final resting place!

Just be aware it’s not a boat. You need to drive it DOWN into the water to reach it’s full potential.

milicent_bystandr,

set sail

Dude, nobody told me Cybertrucks are also wind powered!

nilclass,

That’s a common misconception. The cybertruck’s sails are designed to be pushed by a high-power stream of gasoline, not wind

yesman,

This is highly misleading! You don’t need an expensive ship or spend hours sinking into the ocean. So long as you charge up on the beach, you should be able to just drive to the wreak.
