SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A jury has found Elon Musk liable for defrauding investors by deliberately driving down Twitter's stock price in the tumultuous months leading up to his 2022 acquisition of the social media company for $44 billion. But it absolved him of some fraud allegations, finding that he did not “scheme” to mislead investors.

[...]

The jury awarded shareholders between about $3 and $8 per stock per day as damages, which the plaintiffs' lawyers said amounts to about $2.1 billion in stock and another $500 million in options. Musk's fortune is currently estimated at about $814 billion, much of it tied up in Tesla (TSLA) shares.

Although Mirani “repeatedly” warned her bosses about it, they “disregarded [her] legitimate safety concerns and continued to send large amounts of high-voltage batteries to the… facility,” according to the complaint. At the same time, the filing alleges, “large amounts of hazardous material were being delivered into the buildings, compounding the dangers of the buildings being over capacity.”

My comment that I can't see if I am not logged in to Youtube:

@buffalox8492 for 2 timer siden (redigeret) How is that piece of sh*t car street legal in Norway?
The design conflicts with standards that protect soft/vulnerable road users as well as other cars and the driver, The sharp edges are a hazard to soft traffic, and, the extreme rigidity lacking crumbling zones and weight of the car is an insane danger to everybody, even including the driver. And there are numerous safety issues with the technology that you depend on to drive it.and something as simple as the lights on the car are simply designed wrong for safety!
I thought Norway observed EU standards, but apparently not. Shame on them for allowing this car on their roads. Norwegians should demand to have it removed ASAP! For their own safety. Be warned, This is probably the worst most dangerous car to drive in modern times!

This video explains some of the problems that make it illegal in UK:

"John Oliver discusses how an already flawed Twitter got worse under Elon Musk, how it continues to impact us all, and what it has to do with the 30-40 trillion cells humans are composed of. Or, wait, sorry, Twitter doesn’t have anything to do with the cells. It’s about our understanding of the universe. Maybe. You’ll just have to take that last part up with Elon directly."

Almost half of the prospective jurors for a Twitter investor lawsuit against Elon Musk were disqualified because they declared their hatred for him.

“Buying a car today is an investment into the future. I think the most profound thing is that if you buy a Tesla today, I believe you are buying an appreciating asset – not a depreciating asset.” – Elon Musk, 2019

LOL that quote aged like milk (or worse, like a Model S)

It's hard to make memes designed to disgust. Just gets downvoted to oblivion. But I'm gonna post it anyway. Out of spite; pure spite.

Didn't make it a single year in the hot seat. I'm sure this bodes well for the Tesla sales bounce-back!
