Well, would you? Would you buy an Optimus when they go on sale next year?

[shish_kebab]

I realize you Trump haters would never buy an Optimus just because of your petty hatred for Trump. Didn't you Moonbats go out and burn Tesla dealerships and your neighbor's car, just because you hated Trump? 😜

When production scales up Elon is hoping to be able to sell the Optimus for as low as $20,000. Financing might be available but that's not a sure thing yet.

The Optimus sports a 2.3 KW battery. Under light conditions the Optimus will work for about 8 hours. With heavy lifting and continuous walking that drops to 3 to 5 hours. But when the robot craps out it heads back to its charging station and juices back up. The robot can fully juice in about 2 hours.

While you're out working or doing whatever you do, your Optimus could be at home taking care of all the boring crap.

(For the woke liberals out there... It's not yet been announced with the Optimus' pronouns are.)

[lightbulb27]

hey that be cool if one stood gaurd of the house when gone, took care of things and did security detail. But can they be armed like robo cop?

I just don't know about firing my yard mowing crew... I think they need jobs. if not employed they try to rob me. What else can those robots do?

Walk the dogs?

[shish_kebab]

Keep your yard crew, because you can find other things for your robot to do.

Elon said one of the most difficult tasks of creating Optimus was creating the hands. I think us humans take for granted a sophisticated her hands are. You can lift heavy objects with your hands and you can also thread a needle.
The latest Optimus model can do the same. Also, let's say you have beer in your refrigerator some is warm and some is cold. You tell your robot to go get your cold beer and it can tell which ones are cold because Elon has put temperature sensors in the fingers. That right there is a huge selling point. 😜😜

[lightbulb27]

scotty... beam me up...:)

[shish_kebab]

Me too!

[OneViewpoint]

Yes, I already have a down payment on 5 units. I'm working on a weapons loadout for my personal security detail. Lots of modifications to the weapons. What can go wrong?

[shish_kebab]

Nothing should go wrong if you keep the safety on.

[OneViewpoint]

Does a robot require a concealed carry permit? Open carry? Can a robot be charged with murder? Hey, I didn't do it, it was Unit #3. Talk to Elon. I told Unit #4 to wash the dog and it put my pit bull in my front loader. Must have been a horrible death.

[shish_kebab]

It depends what subscription you get. The gold subscription comes with an open carry permit, Grok and a police scanner.

[Kassandra1994]

If I am extremly busy working over time heck yeah.

[shish_kebab]

I'll have one shipped out to you tomorrow.

[Kassandra1994]

Thanks dude.

[shish_kebab]

You're welcome. I get a 10% commission on them.

[WhitneySnow]

Probably they/them

[shish_kebab]

Damn! Girl, you just made my Sunday! 😅😅 That's some funny shit right there.
I'm lying in a hospital bed as we speak and you put a smile on my face.

Your reply balances out the demonic reply of the other pink on the thread. 😜

[Just_Ken]

You most of that stuff can be done by robots already. I've one that mows my lawn.

[shish_kebab]

You have a robot that pushes a mower or you have a robotic mower?

[Just_Ken]

Robotic mower. It doesn't need another robot to push.

[shish_kebab]

Okay, that's cool, I've always thought those were awesome. But I just like robots in general. I wish I could afford one.

[Just_Ken]

Have two vaccum robots. They keep the floors reasonably dust free, need one that mops too.

[exitseven]

I enjoy mowing my lawn and other boring chores.

[shish_kebab]

I enjoy watching robots do those things.

[Cidknee]

Ayyyyyeeeeeee, or Optimus could go to work and i stay home and cook. Yeah, I'm considering it!

[shish_kebab]

I've actually heard that being discussed. Your robot works around the house all day long then at night when you go to sleep, you send Mr Optimus off to his night job. In the morning he comes home and hands you the cash. 😂
Sign me up!

[Cidknee]

Yeah!

[shortster]

If I get to control it myself; instead of someone else.

[shish_kebab]

It's autonomous. It controls itself.

[shortster]

For tasks it isn't trained to do, a worker remotes into it to teach it how to do those tasks.

[shish_kebab]

I didn't know that. Elon said it could learn from watching youtube.

[shortster]

Well, that was the plan when they were announced a few months back, April I think. I haven't really kept up on the current features.

[shish_kebab]

Neither have I. I'm mostly just inquiring about the concept of a robot, and not so much about the specifics.

[Ariesman81Nshiiit]

Comes with a whistle?

[shish_kebab]

A whistle a can opener and a USB port to charge your phone.

[Ariesman81Nshiiit]

Hmmm... what's the trade-in policy look like

[shish_kebab]

It's pretty good but it depends on what the odometer reading is.

[Ariesman81Nshiiit]

Forget trade in. What's cash price?

[shish_kebab]

I'm not sure. My nephew told me that when Tesla finances one of their cars and you stop making payments, the car will just drive itself back to the dealership without you.
Would that be funny if it was the same with the robots? So you're driving down the road and you see a robot heading back to the dealership. 😜

[Ariesman81Nshiiit]

Carrying it's fucking heels with it😂😂

[shish_kebab]

Yes!!!😜

[EmmaMary]

What a complete and utter waste of money.

[shish_kebab]

You go, girl! Spread the Sunday hate. I've read many of your replies, and they are all hate-filled. Nice!

[EmmaMary]

You're so absolutely right.

[shish_kebab]

The site doesn't allow me to name names but there's about three or four of you that do nothing but spew hatred throughout the site.
Well, it's a tough job that someone has to do it.

I on the other hand, spread nothing but joy throughout the world. 😜

Now if you'll excuse me I have to go sing kumbaya.
