This first of its kind self defence weapon will only allow users to pull the trigger if an enemy of Elon Musk is detected. To be safe, the gun has a setting to detect friendship. According to Tesla, friends include anyone who has praised Musk in the last three months, bought the cyber truck, has a shrine to Musk in their home, or giggles and twirls their hair while thinking about him. Enemies include those who still call X \u201cTwitter,\u201d have criticised Musk in the past five years, or anyone who wouldn\u2019t buy a Tesla if given the opportunity. A source close to Musk tells us, \u201cTeslas are the best cars ever and anyone who doesn\u2019t want one is a loser anyway.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If no enemy is found, a screen will pop up on the gun that reads \u201cfriend detected.\u201d However, users have been getting occasional errors in this system, causing the screen to read out \u201cbootlicker detected\u201d instead. This error should be fixed shortly according to Tesla, though no timeline has been given.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The gun has a unique design, with a trigger that retracts into the grip for a more sleek look.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> In addition to friend detection, the touch screen also includes the ability to play music so users can feel as if they are main characters in a movie.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Critics of the weapon have noted that there is no safety mechanism on the gun. This is clearly an oversight on Musk\u2019s part, though he has not admitted to it, stating \u201cmain characters and friends of mine don\u2019t need safety.\u201d It will not be fixed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Some might be wondering why Elon Musk feels the need to have this \u201canti-meanie gun,\u201d as those on X have started calling it. What many don\u2019t realise is as a genius, billionaire, and ladies man, he has many haters. It can be lonely at the top and even the most perfect men in the world need a shoulder to cry on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Tesla Gun: Friend Edition is set to officially be on the market by June 2024, but new gun prototypes are already in the works. This Includes the anti-poverty edition, which will help to eradicate poverty around the world. It will only allow users to shoot those who make under a million pounds a year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The invention of the Tesla Gun marks an exciting new endeavour for Elon Musk into the world of self defence weapons. In the future, these weapons may be integrated into Tesla cars and even into SpaceX. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In Musk\u2019s hands, self defence weapons will take on a whole new life and will propel us into the future \u2013 as long as you\u2019re his friend.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the makers of the Cyber Truck, comes the all new Tesla Gun: Friend Edition.
