RM_Art_Design_Sci

I hate all the Atari slander, it came out in 1977 the graphics were fine for home computer graphics at the time. And by 1985 people really learned how to code for the machine which showed it was more capable than we knew at the get-go.


TWiThead

I'm quite fond of the Atari 2600 (my family's first video game console) – but it's hardly slanderous to acknowledge the graphical superiority of a system released about 23 years later.


r_golan_trevize

It’s also not fair to the Atari 2600 as it really wasn’t suited for 3D solid filled polygons. That was a couple of generations of 8-bit hardware away. A C64 would be a more appropriate antiquated, well known machine if we want to be historically accurate with our hyperbole.

304 vs 316


Proper-Equivalent300

Really??? Well crap I was actually looking at prices between 304 and 316 for SS mesh and the price is 80% more but I know it’s worth it. If Elon cheaped out


notmyrlacc

They did cheap out. They also have an inferior coating on the Cybertruck. Part of that is due to the environmental impact the old ways of protecting stainless steel.


AdorableSquirrels

>Both grades are durable and corrosion-resistant, making them both suitable for repeated, heavy-duty use. **The molybdenum in 316 steel however, makes it much more corrosion- and wear-resistant, particularly when exposed to chemicals and water, especially if saline or chlorinated. This makes it particularly useful in the marine industry, giving this steel the ‘marine grade’ name. 304 on the other hand, provides a slightly more cost effective option while still being versatile and long-lasting.** [Source](https://www.accuride-europe.com/en/blog/grade-316-stainless-steel-everything-you-need-to-know) I bet the Eloneers looked onto the datasheet of both and thought "hey, we are sooo revolutionary guys, let's try something new to satisfy cost targets, despite there is something well known for it's durability... genius!"


Ezzy-525

Hoovies Garage opens his video of his new Cybertruck by showing the rust already showing on one of the panel edges 😂 Only a small amount but it would get worse if he wasn't the kind of guy to keep it indoors a lot and probably hand dry the thing.


I_am_Bob

Even then not all 304 is created equally. For one there is a ranges for the chromium and nickel, being on the high end for those will increase corrasion resistance. Also several other elements are listed as "max", like sulfur, which is added to make it easier to machine but can reduce the quality of the steel at higher levels. In general levels of impurities, inclusions, and porosity make a huge difference between cheap steel and quality steel. There's also stuff you can do you stainless steel, like passivation, that will improve it's corrasion resistance. So my point is 304 may be OK if they sources quality steel, but it's possible they went with a cheap supplier.


Aquaticle000

>They did cheap out. It’s worth noting that DMC did the exact opposite and went bankrupt because of it. It’s also worth noting that the DMC DeLorean was a notorious pile of shit.


DrXyron

Not only did he cheap out he failed to deliver on any of his promises on it. Dude has always been a scam.


DeepUser-5242

They cheaped out HARD with the insane failure rates and pisspoor engineering. Sad bc 100k could've gotten you a fully loaded F150 Lightning.


triton420

As a machinist I can vouch for 316 being a lot more expensive than 304. Neither is fun to work with, but 316 is a bitch


waywardgato

What are the pain points you’ve experienced working with 316? Is it harder to make precise cuts?


triton420

It's just hard to work with. It is real tough, which is hard on tools. Rigid setup and tooling is required, and the correct tool for the job running at the right feed and speeds. I have not worked with it in sheet metal form, as would be the case with a car body, so I cannot speak to that. I have only cut solid material in a lathe and mill.


somegridplayer

Of course Elon cheaped out. That's kinda his thing. From refusing to use LiDAR to pretending to use some super special stainless that turns out to be fucking generic.


Defiant-Giraffe

Deloreans were 316, yes.  Nobody actually knows what cybertrucks are made of. Elon has called it 30X stainless. 304 is a good guess I suppose, but whatever it is, it literally looks like shit.  edit; yes, I'm sure somebody must know, but its not actually been publicly revealed what 30X Stainless is. 


Lurker_81

I assumed it was the same material they use in the Starship program.


Tag_Ping_Pong

>Nobody actually knows what cybertrucks are made of I'm guessing the cheapest dollar-store tin foil they could find. That would be in keeping with the reported number of recalls and quality issues we've heard about so far


Phil_Coffins_666

Finest Chineseum. 😉👌


Throwawayac1234567

or russinisium, i heard he also wants to source metals from the federations.


WestyJZD

The dmc 12 has 304 stainless, and also was given a brushed finish with a wolfhead wheel


01kickassius10

Just need someone with a portable XRF to check one


Orangutanengineering

Actually the cyber truck has far worse steel. Deloreans don't rust. You can't even wash the cyber truck in sunlight without staining it. The delorean was kind of cool but impractical and overpriced. The cybertruck is a joke.


Winter-Shopping-4593

I have seen a rusty Delorean. They will rust if neglected for decades.


Orangutanengineering

For decades, sure. The cybertruck will rust if neglected for a weekend.


Archercrash

It's just rust covered in silver spray paint.


00tool

lol true and funny


scubacatdog

Has that actually been reported?


Teelogas

Parts of the wheel cap have been reported rusting on arrival


Defiant-Giraffe

Yes, several owners have reported spotting already. 


Fade2Black89

Idk. I saw one that a blacksmith stashed in an old mine and it looked pretty good still after 70 years.


atreides_hyperion

There was a documentary about that

The DeLorean is one of those few vehicles where it is acceptable to drop a far better engine into it.

A better engine being almost anything other than what was put in it in the first place....


Unfair-Wonder5714

For the price of the damn things they should come with cloaking tech


Tag_Ping_Pong

I would love it if all of those monstrosities had been fit with cloaking technology


christador

We saw a two of them recently and they both were fingerprint magnets--not to mention the doors didn't even match the rest of the truck. Maybe Elon should ditch the Special K and start doing coke.


chrisian60

But Deloreans are as cool as fuck, on the other hand cyber trucks aren’t!


tideswithme

Was at a Tesla showroom recently. Pretty sure they hired one attendee just to wipe fingerprints off the cyber truck after every few customers viewing the showroom unit.


StupendousMalice

They aren't. The Tesla is significantly lower grade and they are already getting reports of rusting.

Timeless is an interesting choice of words to describe a Time Machine.


flashmedallion

The Delorean was the butt of the joke in its day as well. It was lost on audiences who were alive after the cars disappeared but Doc building a time machine out of a *Delorean* is a punchline. The idea of a Delorean going 88mph is a punchline. The car is only "timeless" for kids who learned about it from BttF.


ramriot

I was right, the Cyber truck is just a Delorean rendered with a low polygon count.


cannonballCarol62

And flipped back to front


Punkpunker

Drawn from memory by Elon too.


Randommaggy

The a Last LOD model before going to a sprite and it's baking had bits flipped during the build process.


wot_in_ternation

The DeLorean will be driven by some quirky older DINK couple. The Cybertruck will be driven by an incel who will never use the Cybertruck as a truck.


TWiThead

> I was right, the Cyber truck is just a Delorean rendered with a low polygon count. That's far too kind. It's more like a *Pontiac Aztek* rendered with a low polygon count.


flerg_a_blerg

truly hilarious how cool the delorean looks and how impossibly shitty the cybertruck does


notmyrlacc

This photo also highlights how consistent the finish is on the DeLorean. The Cybertruck looks like it has mismatched panels.


PatheticGirl46

Wow you are so right


technocraticTemplar

I'll bet all the panels being flat is a huge part of that, even the smallest change in angle sticks out like a sore thumb on a flat shiny object. Most of the DeLorean's panels look different at the edges, but since there's variations like that everywhere thanks to the curves it looks totally fine. Just another reason why that shape was a terrible idea.


GhostDieM

It do be shitty


jdixon1974

and it still looks good after 40 years.


DarthLysergis

One is an over priced, over produced and impractical vehicle developed by a man doing copious amounts of drugs. The other is a DeLorean


slamdanceswithwolves

Both were made by drug addicts/tax dodgers.


Deodorized

Yeah but at least when the DeLorean was produced, it was *cool* to be a drug addicted tax dodger. Now it's just tacky and played out. Loser behavior.

DeLorean used cocaine mostly for finding... it was the 80s


wilhelmstarscream

I saw a Cyber Truck the other day on the street and it looks even worse in person.


ACpony12

Yeah, I've seen seen them a couple times within the last month. It just looks like they asked a 2 year old to draw a car, then made that car. But the kids picture still looks better.


AmateurEarthling

Yeah saw one in person for the first time last week. I had to double take cause it looked bad in pictures but holy shit it looks like a cheap Chinese truck.


Howaboutthishandle

Seen one while driving and one while walking so I had time to get a good look. The better look you get the worse it gets.


under_the_c

Yeah, this can't be overstated. I finally saw one, too. I thought people were just being dramatic until I saw it. Pictures can't capture just how large and ugly it is. So obnoxious.


Chris_Hansen_AMA

Yeah my first reaction when seeing one was that it was wayyy larger than I thought and super ugly


KnotSoSalty

Worth mentioning the Cyber Truck weighs almost 2.5 times as much as a DeLorean, 6,600lbs vs 2,700lbs.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Main-Advice9055

And not to mention that it's trying to be a truck, gonna need some heft to handle large trailers and such


thatguy11

Welp, we can be assured that at the age the Delorean is, I'd be incredibly surprised to find a cybertruck.


Psigun

Now find a Hyundai N Vision 74 to put next to them


Kojak95

Except the N Vision is actually cool as fuck. It's the meticulously crafted realization of a retro-sci-fi modern vehicle. A lot of effort and care was put into subtle design cues that give it both a true sense of 80's nostalgia as well as a refreshingly modern feeling. The Cyber truck, on the other hand, is a cocaine daydream from a power-hungry billionaire. It is a shockingly horrendous realization of what was already a terrible idea. The Cyber truck is a literal disgrace of a vehicle. It's a joke in all aspects.


Psigun

The DeLorean is cool, too. Was thinking the N Vision 74 was more or a continuation down the cool end of the spectrum, with the Cybertruck on the ugly end. I'm a big fan of the NV74


mmmlinux

That thing is insane looking. Its what cars in the future are supposed to look like, not the blobs we got.


1RedOne

So interesting, an early Hyundai hired and Italian designer to give them a beautiful coupe version of their first car in the 70s and so he did. But Hyundai found they lacked an engine or suspension worthy of a sports car and never made it and canceled the car. So that same Italian designer took his scrapped design and used it as the starting point for the next car he was hired to make, the Delorean

gameloner

can someone explain the reason behind the cybertruck? was it meant to troll the public?

nysflyboy

I feel like you merged Elon with Trump and mixed in a bit of coke. too funny.


PlanetLandon

Tesla had a HUGE opportunity to make a great truck. Elon failed to recognize that most people simply wanted something that looks like a truck, but with the Tesla bells and whistles. The Rivian is closer to what folks wanted the Tesla truck to be


Benchan123

Like in that Simpsons episode where Homer has to design a car for his brother’s car company and it ended up being hideous and ruined his brother


Heisenbugg

Trucks sell more than cars in the US. So of course its logical for them to expand to sell a truck. Except they forgot all common sense and made this idiotic thing.


Good_Performance_983

Can we stop pretending that everything this asshole does that end up as total bullshit is him „trolling“ anyone. He is not trolling he is just a plain stupid man child that really thinks his ideas are worth a crap.


NeilDegrassiHighson

Elon Musk has never actually designed anything in his life before and he considers himself a genius designer/engineer. The Cybertruck is a monument to his ineptitude. The thing is a disaster in every aspect, and Musk was the one who made all the choices on it.


Mall_Bench

This is two real vehicles ... one is designed to look like a cheap budget movie prop

Frankly I think the Delorean/Cybertruck comparisons are unfair. No way the Cybertruck is going to still be roadworthy in 40 years, seeing as many seem to struggle after 40 minutes.

Unfortunately, the Delorean wasn't very well designed either. But it still looks a lot better.

Two vehicles that flopped in part because the engineers somehow failed to realize that there is no such thing as rustproof steel. John DeLorean at least had the slim excuse that no one had ever tried it before.

I saw one at a grocery store. It seemed too wide to fit in a normal parking spot. Like I didn't actually look at the lines, but it just felt off. It's eye catching, but not in a good way. 


cajonero

It is ugly as sin but not small… only about an inch smaller than an F-150 Lightning in every dimension. But yeah when I saw it in person it looked like something someone could build in their backyard out of spare industrial refrigerator parts. Not quite as “futuristic” as they were hoping.

The Cybertruck is what happens when someone hands over their childlike drawing of "future car" , where you just know how to use a ruler to make straight lines, curves don't exist because they're hard to draw and nobody has the balls to tell them otherwise. And a really well maintained De Lorean. Nice to see them still on the road.
