Let's have some fun with you, Loser-2!

First post (and note this is the order they appear in in Thunderbird 
with threading turned on) has two images (with broken URLs, because 
Loser-1 still hasn't figured out enclosing URLs in angle brackets):

<https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GREBCFKXMAEXOdx?format=jpg&name=small>
<https://cowboystatedaily.imgix.net/tesla-superstation-10-1-23.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&q=75&auto=format%2Ccompress&fit=clip&w=2048>

Neither of those shows the building that allegedly contains the generator.

Post 2: mine and contains no new image links

Post 3: from Loser-1 and contains no new image links

Post 4: mine and no new image links.

Post 5: Loser-1, and he just repeats the same links.

Post 6: Mine.

Post 7: You! And you do include:

<https://slate.com/technology/2022/05/elon-musk-tesla-twitter-fables.html>

Which is an article from 2022 and which does show a video of the 
building alleged to have a generator inside it...

...but the only generator in evidence is a portable one...

...which was only there on a holiday weekend...

...and which as there in 2015...

...NINE YEARS ago.

So fail.

Your other links were:

<https://www.generatorsource.com/blog/September-2023-(1)/Does-Tesla’s-Mega-98-Supercharger-Location-Count-O.aspx>

That just regurgitates the same single report, but doesn't add anything 
new...

...like a video of the building with the telltale noise of a diesel 
motor running.

And your last link is just a repeat of the cowboystatedaily.com image 
that doesn't show a single generator; let alone one in any building.

Post 8: my reply with a source rebutting the basic claim

Post 9: you raving that images of Superchargers themselves are 
supposedly "generators".

Post 10: me asking to be shown the alleged generators

Post 11: you lying and claiming you've already shown them.
