I think it's really cool messaging that a car comes with a complimentary beer

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 9 months ago

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 65 points 9 months ago

[-] FanonFan@hexbear.net 29 points 9 months ago

Twitter's primary function is finding and inventing new types of guys.

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 46 points 9 months ago

forced himself to drink it? classic beer mentality

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 45 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

If he wasn't a fascist I'd say critical support to Elon for fleecing techbros.

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 41 points 9 months ago

Look if someone bought "Tesla Cyberbeer" they deserve whatever happens to them.

[-] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 30 points 9 months ago

for $75...

take this as a life lesson dude

[-] RoabeArt@hexbear.net 36 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Aren't aluminium bottle caps, like cans, supposed to have a clear plastic coating on them to prevent the metal from corroding and reacting with the drink? Did they forget to make the caps with that stuff on them or something?

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 44 points 9 months ago

They did, but with .03 micron tolerances

[-] Zvyozdochka@hexbear.net 25 points 9 months ago

It's usually only on the inside/bottom of the cap, the part where the drink actually touches the cap

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 20 points 9 months ago

Aluminum also doesn't rust IIRC so idk what's going on here.

[-] The_Walkening@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

Beer bottle caps are steel usually - looks like they contracted out a batch of beers and let them sit in bad conditions - also they used a clear bottle which means the beer develops a bunch of off-flavors bc of the light hitting it.

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 34 points 9 months ago

Didn't even call it "Cybeer"

[-] roux@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago
[-] nephs@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 9 months ago

SO FUCKING OBVIOUS!

[-] Elon_Musk@hexbear.net 32 points 9 months ago

hehe, gottem

[-] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 31 points 9 months ago

Trump's going to come after Elon for stealing his shtick.

[-] usernamesaredifficul@hexbear.net 22 points 9 months ago

Elon is just if Trump wasn't funny

[-] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 31 points 9 months ago

$75 beer should come with bottle service. melon-musk ability to grift his base is cheeto-man level

[-] lemat_87@hexbear.net 30 points 9 months ago

Do you also think "Tesla John" is somewhat cringe?

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago

Sounds like he cruises for sex workers in his Model Y.

[-] windowlicker@hexbear.net 28 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

"why did you drink it?"

because that's the purpose of it????? it's a beverage for consumption??? elon can't do anything right, he can't even make a beer that is drinkable.

[-] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 30 points 9 months ago

I interpreted it as why would you drink a beer that was in a comprised container and tasted weird.

[-] Venus@hexbear.net 4 points 9 months ago

I mean it's alcohol, idk how bad it can really be even in a compromised container.

[-] Chump@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

If you’ve ever heard someone talk about a beer being skunked, they’re referring to it having gone bad. Happens more easily than you’d think and especially with beer, where the Abv isn’t really high

[-] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 5 points 9 months ago

Skunked beer is from oxidation of hop compounds, not biological spoilage. Beer can be contaminated with undesirable microbes but the dangerous ones can't grow in the low pH and alcoholic (even when it's low abv) environment.

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 26 points 9 months ago

Forcing yourself to finish what wound up being a terrible investment is incredibly relatable, ngl. Though if it's a bad beer I'd just cook some brats in it, if anything.

[-] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 17 points 9 months ago

It's called sunk cost, I suppose...

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

Elon said that the Cybertruck is watertight enough to be a small boat. First person to test that is gonna have a real sunk cost on their hands.

[-] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Talaga?! Welp, their funeral...

[-] nephs@lemmygrad.ml 17 points 9 months ago

They also lost the chance to call it cybeer. Disappointment in so many levels.

[-] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 15 points 9 months ago

Lmao you gotta respect elon's grift

[-] Venus@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

Idk grifting when you're born into riches just seems overkill. I respect it when you're born poor and you get rich grifting, but Elon couldve done nothing in his entire life and still been rich

[-] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

as a beer enjoyer, i need to find someone dumb enough to get me a cyberbeer. it sounds truly awful

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 9 months ago

Hey at least it didn't combust unlike some other tesla products.

[-] Posadas@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago

What is rust if not a slow combustion

[-] Awoo@hexbear.net 12 points 9 months ago

Wait.. They give away alcohol with their vehicle that is illegal to drive when under the influence of alcohol?

Geniuses.

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago

my-hero looking into it

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 9 months ago

Better than C++ bottle caps at least.
