So it's a taxi.

Motherfucker loves trying to reinvent the wheel only to end up at the goddamn wheel.

"I'ma invent a giant system that goes underground so we can move people around faster!" That's a subway, you santorum-covered condom.

Isn't the Cybertruck steering wheel called a squircle?

I cringed. I don't know if you made that up or not, and the fact that I genuinely can't tell made me sad for this stupid timeline.

Apparently it fucking is. God I hate everything.

Terrible name for a terrible design. Yoke style steering wheels are not safe for cars because they create awkward handholds as they rotate.

Yoke style works in planes and race cars where they aren't rotated 360+ degrees regularly, rarely over 90 degrees either direction.
