    Fair summary.

    But ultimately concerning with the level of trust and wilful ignorance people are putting in this technology.

    It is clear from your posts that the supervised FSD is…to use your words "positivly dangerous" and you are certainly entitled to form that view. In contrast RDW have also formed a view after 18 months engaging with Tesla and full consideration and their view is that the supervised FSD … to use their words "makes a positive contribution to road safety". It is not possible to reconcile these two different "opinions" but they are put forward in the interest of balance and each person can form their own view

    Maybe they could open all their data and accident information for 3rd party analysis. As until then they're lying. They've quite literally gone to court to guard data from the DOT in the US .

    New report reveals Tesla officials' efforts to hide potentially damaging data: 'Would suffer financial and economic harm' https://share.google/i8dtUEzESYrWRRZNn

    I don't trust them, neither should you based on imperial information that's out there.

    And as always ive stayed self driving based of camera analysis is at the minimum the worst possible sensor arrangement for road and object analysis. It's cheap and cheerful and rubbish.

    I doubt I'd even be having these conversations at all if Tesla had stuck with their original hardware setup when they first got into road and object analysis. Before musk saw costs could be cut to very little using cameras..

    Well you said they updated their terms did you not ? And there is only one person going to war on this, spoiler alert it's not me.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,672 ✭✭✭✭listermint


    I did. But I replied earlier that perhaps I got that wrong.

    I mean what more do you want? I responded to this very question from you earlier.. ??

    Cool just checking, also jol1 has articulated what everyone else has been saying and you now agree, glad to see common sense has prevailed.

    Anyway gmits interesting that the Dutch have rigorously tested this and find it a positive advancement.

    Can you give any further insight as to the difference between what they have approved and what's currently available to us consumers , I wasn't aware there was a difference.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,107 ✭✭✭...Ghost...


    Say what you mean, because we can't see what you think. Memory is malleable, but facts are not. Nowhere in the comment that multiple people have mentioned (the one I screenshot for you) did you make any distinction between EU and US versions of FSD. If you clarified your position soon after, that's grand but I don't recall you doing that. It looks like an attempt to rewrite predictions occurred only after the RDW approval mention.

    The functionality and safety score performance is separate and while it is relevant, it seems to only be used to fluff up your position and deflect from what you are claiming you didn't post.

    We all make predictions that we are passionate about. It's pretty clear what was said. You got it wrong. Time to own it. Plenty more debate to be had in other areas Tesla related.

    The difference is between the US and the EU. I never said anything about consumers at all. Is this you trying to skew the conversation again ?

    Go have a look yourself the RDW fairly explicit that it's a European version and does not reflect what is available in the US.

    Not sure where I anyone said anything about consumer version?? Confused....



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,672 ✭✭✭✭listermint


    A whole load of yada yada yada. To rope the conversation back to things I never said.

    Like when are you going to stop this stuff ?

    I haven't changed my position at all.

    In fact Tesla have. Nothing to do with me. Chopping and changing their offering to suit the RDW. Alas I guess that's what the RDW is designed for. They prob don't bend their rules and tests. So Tesla manifestly had to make changes.

    Still, I don't trust tesla at all. And they still have the worst form of self driving technology. A cheap one .

    Why are you massively in favour of the cheapest form of tech driving you and your family around ? It's odd you all ignore those things each time raised and want to roll back to the nonsense discussion of word smithing.

    But alas you do it because it's a vain attempt to wind me up. As youre throughly at sea in terms of defending the tech. It's like an ocean of magic that your consumed by. You don't understand it so you steer away from talking about it. The elephant in the room is that it's a sham.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,107 ✭✭✭...Ghost...


    Talk is cheap when you dont own your words.

    Failed to deal with the post, choosing instead to try undermine it with weak "yada" in line 1. Classy.

    You're providing the rope. Pulling the noose tighter when you deny the facts presented.

    Fluffing again with your safety claims...none of which I have denied, or argued against. That's a separate debate. My only point was that you posted something and then denied it when people challenged you on it. I posted the proof above. Did you, or did you not post the content of the screen grab I pasted? And does it, or does it not mention anything about EU v US FSD supervised? I ask the second question only because your latest assertion is that the EU version is nothing like the US version.

    Your assumption about attempts from me to wind you up is probably your emotional entanglement in this subject. I have made no such attempts. I forwarded you the opportunity to show if you had clarified your position prior to the RDW news. Somehow that's seen by you that I am in favour of the cheapest tech driving me and mine around. I'm not seeing the connection you've made in your head on that one tbh.

    I would like to know how my understanding of how autonomous, self driving (supervised or not) cars has any connection with my assertion that you appear to have made a statement, but later claimed you hadn't made the statement. Can you answer that?

    Can you at least tell me if you meant something else when you wrote those words? If not, then I'm afraid any statements after that will carry as much credibility as a bucket of nothing, despite you apparently being so knowledgeable in the tech.

    I've spent the day addressing all of this. So no.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,107 ✭✭✭...Ghost...


    I've only seen you deny that you said what I later pasted for you. No addressing that. But, OK. You don't need to clear anything up. You're not on trial, but I won't take your posts credible going forward. Same as I wouldn't be inclined to take Elons tweets seriously. I don't assume that matters to you, but it's a set of statements I'll stand by and own. Good evening.

    Have a great evening too. I've no ill will towards anyone. And I've no need nor want to cover what I've covered many times over and over. And I doubt you've spent any time reading any of that coverage today in any great detail.

    Hence why I'm cutting it short.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,382 ✭✭✭✭Cyrus


    I've never tried to skew anything , again for the hard of learning what has been approved in the Netherlands is the supervised fsd that consumers (you and me but probably not you ) can purchase for their Tesla's. It has been available for years in the US and pretty widely used. You are saying that what is to be available in Europe differs greatly from this , this article outlines the differences and they don't seem huge to me (https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-fsd-us-vs-europe-features/)

    As for it being the worst and cheapest form of self driving , maybe so but it was good enough to get this approval so it must be better than you suggest it is.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,107 ✭✭✭...Ghost...


    I took a quick look into the US v EU differences and on the main, it seems to be that it’s just more conservative for the EU version, with no mode changes (chill and madmax etc) as well as hand position tracking. So hands need to be ready to take over.

    Netherlands Tesla now has subscriptions available at 99 a month. That was fast. I wonder will Tesla keep the purchase option open until all EU have adopted it.

    LM, you said categorically that the version of FSD bring presented to the RDW a few weeks ago wouldn't have a hope of passing. Whether it's a US version, a modified EU version, or a pink fluffy version, you categorically said (using your claimed industry insider experience) that it would be denied, and not just closely, but emphatically scrubbed from the annals of submission history.

    Yet it passed.

    And rather than say, 'fair play all, I was mistaken', you've tripled down and suggested that somehow in the couple of weeks since submission Tesla has magically watered it all down to a Listermint-spec FSD offering and that's what you really meant all along??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,672 ✭✭✭✭listermint


    Lads can you stop with the lies. I literally said and you quoted it that Austin hadn't a hope of passing in the EU austin where they are trialling Robot taxi. Not Austin where Elon is testing some FSD that only you seem to know about despite FSD being available for some years in the US.

    Enough of this nonsense mojo. Enough .

    Now unless you want to enlighten me to some FSD in Austin that I wasn't aware of can you cut the ****.

    Fair enough 😂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,672 ✭✭✭✭listermint


    I'm glad you were able to provide insights into this new secret FSD that's being tested in Austin. Is it capable of goal lifting ?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 19,930 ✭✭✭✭ELM327


    Can you two get a room or something

    Definitely, but I'm not paying.

    Are there no mods on this forum anymore?

    This thread has become an absolute disaster of petty squabbling



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,107 ✭✭✭...Ghost...


    I don't think any rules are being broken. MOD might be hesitant to step in. An individual was previously banned for regularly bringing Elons political leanings into the thread. The recent "squabbling" is at least directly related to Tesla products and is respectful, but I can see how it could be wearing people down.

    I see a new zen grey interior for Shanghai - built Model Y, interesting.

    Looks more like a sand colour than grey. Smart though, and finally something a little different from Tesla.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,785 ✭✭✭✭Red Silurian


    Anybody tried the Multipass yet? Looks to be pretty good on paper, only issue I can see is it not actually working haha!

    Hi lads. Posted this in the used ev section but this is may be a better place. With regards to the Tesla basic mechanical warranty, do any of you know of any instance where someone was able to activate the extended warranty subscription when the basic warranty has long expired? Google Gemini is saying that Tesla allow it if the car passes a "Paid Vehicle Inspection" at their service centre. Would definitely add some peace of mind when buying a second hand Tesla.
