Both. A 35% change in one month, when the production lines are being retooled for a new version of the most popular model… is nothing special. Because it was planned and couldn't be managed differently (except by stuffing inventories,

That's an opinion, which I shared. The problem is that we believe this opinion-driven effect is proved by the dip in sales, but the numbers can easily be explained by a simpler reason: the Model Y, which accounts for 2/3 of the co

They stopped selling the Model Y (>65% of their sales) because the production lines where down for retooling. What did you expect?

Yes, because the drop in sales relates to the retooling of the Model Y production liens in all 4 factories at once: Fremont, Austin, Berlin and Shanghai. In Europe, deliveries re-started on March 10 after the official launch in mid January.

The "Take" isn't solid: >In fact, Model 3 is down 29.4% in Europe so far this year despite plenty of inventory. Sedan sales have been down for a while so Model 3 isn't trendy. Also, last year Q1 had the new "Hig

They have a total of 1059 new vehicles in inventory in the US (data from https://ev-cpo.com/# on March 24, 2025). Seems like a tiny number for an OEM that had 4.2% of US auto market share at EOY 2024.

>A 35% sales drop is pretty crazy. It's not, if you realize they started the quarter with almost no inventory (12 days in end of December, which is nothing for an OEM with no dealership). More importantly, they shut down the product

While their European production lines were down because of the switch to the new Y "Juniper" version? Of course sales are down if you start the quarter with near zero inventory and shutdown your factory. Also, the Y lines were als

Why not try Kagi? Serious question.

Fastmail and Kagi. The former is amazing – Gmail UX and speed is atrocious in comparison, and the latter is amazing to find reliable, to-the-point results.

Open-source does very little good if no one actually contribute to the code except the company who controls it and no one else has the means to participate (other than taking the code as-it-is). The giant players are more than happy to keep

by rcMgD2BwE72F 2y ago
Rather than a foundation for their products, I think they're just trying to make it impossible for new competitors to enter that market because if when all the biggest models are open-sourced, a new player can't convince investors

Kobo has a sideloading mode that disables all connected-services by default (no need for an account, no online store necessary). Highly recommended alternative. https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2022/01/21/kob
