I love how transparently this is made out of some angle iron a couple facilities people picked up at home depot
I also love the twitter sign that they got stopped halfway through pulling down by the cops a few days ago because they didn't have a permit to operate the cherry picker

trying to rotate this in my head to imagine how much shittier it must look from the ground (when it looks this bad from a relatively good angle).

the AP writeup has some photos from a shittier angle which make it evident that the infill on the "wide leg" of the X is just made out of black poly sheeting

fuckin 700$ erectorset ass sign seems here just to attract the press but I'm glad the high schooler is getting noticed i guess

cat @catball7/29/2023, 1:59 AM

yeah, that looks sufficiently half-assed to represent the company

BáiYù @baiyu7/29/2023, 2:01 AM

I cannot wait for some winds to knock that thing down because it looks about as stable as the site infrastructure itself

@Ballance7/29/2023, 7:54 AM

I'm low-key worried it'll come loose and crush somebody on the street below

I'm trying to process this. The scale looks off, that kind of "channel with holes in it" shouldn't... be... that big... it looks like a photoshop. zoomed phone photos are a special kind of visual hell so maybe this makes more sense if someone took a real picture of it but i am just strugglign to figure out what my eyes are seeing.

I WANT TO SEE THE BOLTS

Nire Bryce @NireBryce7/29/2023, 7:21 AM

nm it uses zip ties

Alex Froio @dukecarge7/29/2023, 2:09 AM

what the fuck is that

Jama @Jama7/29/2023, 2:14 AM

It looks like a bad monitor mount.

Christian Simmers @Xuelder7/29/2023, 2:15 AM

My favorite description of it has been "It looks like its built with an old Erector Set!"

Binary @binary7/29/2023, 2:20 AM

It really does lmao

Kauko @kauko7/29/2023, 2:18 AM

taking bets on if they have a permit for this? or even permission from the building owner? lmao

Ghostpaw Snowmiaux @snowmiaux7/29/2023, 2:59 AM

ding ding ding lmao of course they didn't

@bile7/29/2023, 3:17 AM

i thought they weren’t even paying rent at this point they’re so getting evicted

JP @vectorpoem7/29/2023, 2:26 AM

my immediate thought was that this sucker isn't sufficiently secured and it's going to plummet onto market street and kill a few people.

A cat, a cat, and a cat @chiaki7477/29/2023, 2:28 AM

God I cannot wait for them to just get evicted.

@AndrewJPlant7/29/2023, 3:17 AM

Home Depot is generous, I’m not convinced they didn’t fashion it out of torn up server racks and cubicles.

Zuthal @Zuthal7/30/2023, 1:29 PM

To make things worse, it flashes brightly at night, aimed directly at an apartment complex across the street

This shit is gonna give someone a seizure and i hope when it does the person finds a really good lawyer to represent them pro bono and sues Musk's pants off
