stop buying tesla, stop supporting spacex, and stop buying starlink
Starlink is the only decent satellite internet provider
^^ this. In America the only vote that really matters is the one you do with your wallet.
But what launch provider should I use then?
Boeing? No, I don’t think so.
don’t use any. space programs are wholly unnecessary
You don’t like GNSS?
Also space programs have been the source of a lot of world changing inventions.
because spending money on space exploration when people are homeless and hungry is wrong
Are you 12?
Are you? stfu or go invent a microwave that prevents neoliberal mayors and govenors (at least in the US’s system) from sicking cops on their own constituents while giving the real estate contracts to their buddies who are only interested in building McMansions. 🤡
I agree that manned space programs are unnecessary and unmanned should be very limited. Starlink shouldn’t have been allowed. Unfortunately the US government let telecoms off the hook when it came to serving rural areas.
…Ok, now what? Is evil defeated yet?
if boycotts didn’t work they wouldn’t try to criminalise them
Because criminalizing having a different political view definitely sustains democracy.
SpaceX will be the only game in town once the new administration eviscerates nasa
And stop using Xitter.
I would have no other alternative for internet access unfortunately
You could live like the first 2020 years of our timeline.
I don’t understand your sentence can you rephrase ?
rent seeking strikes back
Hehehe, we all know how that’s like. I’m sure this income will truly be used to improve their services and support robust and reliable API infrastructure.
What’s the data? The article says the app was fleet management? So location and remote opening doors or something?
You can do basically everything you can do from teslas own app, but automated and even a little more. For example I use it to automatically control charging power to match the surplus of my solar panels, that keeps my grid-use for my car to 0kWh for roughly 5 months of the year. And I can set the charging power lower than I can in the Tesla app (app is 5A minimum, API goes to 0A), which is convenient for the solar charging.
And of course you can pull battery data, odometer etc. with it as well.
Tesla can eat penis.
A bag of.
Si musk pulled a Reddit spez?
Not surprising as musk is a scammer who got incredibly lucky, always has been.
Fuck spez and fuck musk
Fuck Elon. Fuck Tesla.
I was their target demographic amd Elon made sure that I never even consider their trash. I went BMW instead.
Did u have to unlearn how to use an indicator?
Isnt that a mandatory class before they let u buy one?
BMW does have shady monetization tactics with their newer car, but Subaru shred almost every other car brands to dust
BMW lobbies against non-car based infrastructure and car industry regulation here in Germany. Biggest shareholder is the Quandt family, who are descendant from literal Nazis, and now use part of their billions to fund the conservatives (at least they aren’t giving it to the far-right. Yet.)
So yeah, fuck Elon, but fuck BMW too.
I’m surprised devs didn’t see the writing on the wall after Twitter all but murdered its API
Wasn’t that still Dorsey twitter though?
I could swear it was too, but I double checked before the comment.
Elon closed the deal on Oct 28, 2022 according to Wikipedia, and the first API woes I remember was the killing of third-party clients, which happened in Jan 19, 2023
There’s no laws against profiteering?
Tesla is an American company, in Texas, at that.
It wouldn’t matter if there were.
When Twitter (and Reddit) pulled this off, I was just mildly pissed. Can’t do interesting things with my data, oh no.
…Image that, except it’s an expensive luxury car you’re no longer allowed to do interesting things with.
Reminds me of the Fall Out Boy song “Dead on Arrival”.
Something to note: Tesla has two vehicle APIs, the Fleet API for commercial accounts and the Owner API for individuals. This change currently only impacts the Fleet API.
If you are an individual owner who accesses your vehicle data from the Owner API (usually via a self hosted tool like TeslaMate), this does not affect you. Yet.
Hey kid, don’t waste your breath defending corporations. You will end up being wrong in the end, and before that you just look like a fool.
Highlight where in the above post I am defending anything.

Reddit got the idea from Elon’s twitter API fees. This is Elon being consistent(ly terrible).
