@theapplehub Did I? Do I? One of the greatest designs. I miss the tech from 15 years ago. Can you imagine where it will be in 15 years from now?

@SamVale29 I replaced one of mine. Went from an LG G5 to a Sony Bravia 8ii. It was the spyware on the LG that did it for me.

Scam alert: Santa Rosa, California warns of callers posing as federal agents who say you're helping a secret "sting," then tell you to move cash, gift cards, precious metals or crypto. Real agents never do this. Hang up. Would your folks spot it? #ScamAlert #30A

@Kevin_Logan I know, some folks are having a hell of a time. Seems that Cursor uses a lot. Going to do some coding this week, so I will have an update next week.

@HandsomeHank_ Hank, what could the "other" be? Curious to see how it goes.

How @Apple how could the previous version of Siri, when I say "Siri, make the lights in Chucks room blue" it would make them blue. Now when I say it, it asks what room and then will turn the lights on, or off. I use @tweethue and have for nearly 17 years. How can I change the color of my lights with Siri now? #siri #apple #phillipshue

I seriously need time to slow down. I feel like the last 15 years has been a blur. Especially from 2018 to now. Enjoy every day because it gets faster as you get older.

A Grok reset is sounding really good right about now!

[30A Nerds @30anerds]

@CreeCoder Hell, I followed just out of the principle of this post. Fantastic!

[30A Nerds @30anerds]

@JustinPiet99444 @JR_TeslaX Yeah, this may be my perfect vehicle. With those folded down, I will have a lot of room. Thank you for the reply!

AI can clone a loved one's voice. Missouri police warn of fake accident or kidnapping calls that keep you on the line and push for money. Their tip: pick a family safe word, then hang up and call back. Does your family have one? #ScamAlert #AI

@randomlybrian @Tesla Okay that is fantastic to know! Thanks Brian!

[30A Nerds @30anerds]

Wait. There is Tesla insurance? Do I have yet ONE MORE REASON to get into a @tesla ?

[Matt @ninjamattic]

Why have I bought into the Muskonomy? This is why. At 9pm on a Friday night I got in my wife’s car to pick up her Target order. I made it one house down before the car started throwing flat tire warnings. I pulled over and sure enough. It was flat. I very slowly drove it right back into our driveway, hopped out, and filed a claim through the Tesla app with my Tesla insurance. Within minutes a tow truck was dispatched to pick the car up and take it to the nearest Tesla service center. Since they’re open Saturday’s, the car will be ready for pickup tomorrow with a repaired or new tire. On any other car this would be a nightmare. Trying to find a tire shop over Saturday and Sunday, make sure my tire is in stock, pay a towing company to come get it… it would consume the weekend. Not with my @tesla though. A few taps of the screen and all I have to do it pick it up at the end. Wow.
