Updated with video from reporters on-site at the bottom of the post! Late Sunday night, four Tesla Cybertrucks caught fire in a Seattle holding lot near 2nd Ave S & S Spokane St, just five minutes from the local Tesla dealership. Initially, reports indicated two burning Cybertrucks, but as the fire spread, the number grew to 4 Cybertrucks. Investigators have offered no details as to whether this was arson or another case of a Tesla Cybertruck bursting into flames spontaneously. See video from the scene in the full article.

Yeah, that does strike me as incredibly suspicious. To be 100% honest, when I ask AI about advice for stuff on things I know about, it tends to make INCREDIBLY basic errors. The worst kind of errors.

Like when I asked the AI on how to hide my face from cameras, I did ask it about my eyes specifically, and if it was night time, it said to use... sleeping eye covers. Nope.

Wait, so how DO I successfully hide my face from cameras?

Covering your face and having sunglasses is sufficient. My question was doing it at night when sunglasses basically make you blind.

I actually wore ww2 era flight goggles that didn't hinder your vision at night. Only problem is they are conspicuous as hell.
