Hate to spoil the anti cybertruck band wagon here, but apparently the owner discovered that they were doing something wrong. I think they seated the charger incorrectly, which allowed it to charge for a bit, but then the safety mechanism from the truck turns off the charging. These trucks and other electric vehicles can charge at this temperature range, but they will have reduced range.
Elon is still a Nazi, and these trucks look horrendous.

I still think the connector on a 24 amp line shouldn't be something you need to take apart as a consumer.
Eh, if you're careful and know what you're doing (e.g. Google stuff), it's effectively screws and copper. Nothing too special about it.
I know we're all geniuses here and just being part of the fediverse is proof of that, but the average consumer that bought an incel Camino might be a slightly different demographic.
Well, if they die, it's just natural selection to me
I mean, things go wrong with gas cars too, some people fix it themselves and other people go to shops, how is this any different?
Because the people who bought these cars paid $100k (at least) for them and they drive them around as symbols of technological power and efficiency.
Meanwhile, the rest of us are traveling around in a $19k Toyota Camry that works just fine.
Must be nice to be able to afford a $19K Camry. I'm just happy that I could afford my 20-year-old $10K 350Z (and only because I had some life insurance money).
Yeah, I thought that would be a good generic example.
I went ten years without driving or owning a car.
Sure but, traditionally 'nicer' doesn't mean 'easier to work on' for cars.
ICE doesn't require a lock out/tag out.
Yeah you're right but still shouldn't fall on the consumer to do it for a $100K car
You could say that just about anything. If you know what you are doing and can Google stuff you can build fucking rockets with parachutes and what not. Every repair a mechanic does can be sumed up in less than a single page.
