You say that like it's a bad thing...

@arstechnica what exactly is the downside of that scenario?

@arstechnica “Musk threatens to withhold incompetent meddling resulting in boost to share prices; employs passive-aggressive tactics to induce board to fire him so he can moan about it on his failing social media platform”

Cool! So there we have it. Elon is all about the money!

@arstechnica he doesn’t. And if he pays less attention they might actually properly refresh their models and stop the slide in dashes.

@arstechnica Maybe running 5 companies isn’t a great idea for 1 person.

nazokiyoubinbou , vor 27 Tagen

@arstechnica Uhm, him paying less attention to it actually would be a positive, so it's kind of win-win to not give him the money. In fact, the less he is paid the more the rest of the world wins...

That would be an improvement for Tesla.

This is how you know they aren't a serious company.

@arstechnica Musk divorcing from Tesla might allow Tesla to survive, his energy is destructive as evidenced by his historical behavior. Musk ain’t no Nikolai Tesla and usurping his name for his profit is repulsive.

@arstechnica I wonder who he owes $45b to that suddenly wants it back

For 46 Billion dollars, Tesla could give cars away and still make money.

nrcha , vor 27 Tagen

@arstechnica Ok, guys, I’ll do it for 20 billion..

@arstechnica him leaving Tesla puts Tesla back on the list of potential car candidates for me

@arstechnica I'm not seeing a downside.

Over here we demonise workers who threaten to withdraw their labour in pursuit of excessive pay claims.

@arstechnica trying to figure out how Elon spending less time at Tesla could be a bad thing for Tesla 🤔

3dcandy , vor 27 Tagen

@arstechnica that can only be a good thing. Don't pay him everybody!

thomas_klopf , vor 27 Tagen

@arstechnica I wonder if anyone at Tesla realizes that a large portion of society won’t buy their cars because they associate Tesla with Musk. If they do, I hope they factor that into their decision here.

@arstechnica the guy who recently kneecapped the crown jewel of the company just because someone talked back to him might become "unmotivated"

Good.

@arstechnica this just keeps getting more hilarious with every new chapter 😄

@arstechnica How is less time possible?

apicultor , vor 27 Tagen

@arstechnica Holy shit.

> Musk could devote less time to Tesla if pay isn't re-approved, shareholders hear.

That's what I call win/win. Sack him and save $46bn.

@arstechnica I wonder if the diverted GPUs to Twitter was a threat. But then he’s in dereliction. This seems like an ultimatum born from a weak position, on news of other EV sales increasing while Tesla slumps. Amidst quality control and like 10 years of ”next year” auto driving. Maybe last straw for apartheid 90s internet cowboy.
