@unusual_whales I guess I’m buying a iPhone Duo after all. #apple #iphoneduo

@MissJilianne Agreed. Tesla boasts, “The best part is no part”, and then they over complicate the doors for no reason… so dumb.

@gurgavin The product announcements were great but WS loss credibility when they announced the “Telus discount”. A discounted $60 phone plan is a joke. How is that helping Canadians save when I can find a cheaper plan myself, @Wealthsimple ?

NEWS: Tesla has registered 1,655 vehicles for its ride-hailing service in California, a spokesperson from the California Public Utilities Commission said. The company has registered 798 drivers.

That's up from 28 cars and 128 drivers in August. The vehicle number reflects cars that have been approved for use, not the actual operational fleet number. The spokesperson also said Tesla isn't required to update the state as it adds new drivers, which means the current number could be higher.

🇺🇸 SAN FRAN BLACKOUT – WAYMO FROZE, TESLA DROVE

Waymo’s robotaxis got a little too real last night - by completely shutting down when San Francisco’s power outage knocked out traffic lights.

Meanwhile, Teslas on FSD? Kept rolling. No drama, no headlines - just handling chaos like it’s a walk in the park.

This is what happens when you train your AI on billions of real-world miles instead of coddling it in a simulation padded with perfect data and wishful thinking.

Waymo bet on maps and order. Tesla bet on mess - and won. When the lights go out, the difference isn’t theoretical. It’s traffic.

@gurgavin Does Trump even have the power to cut subsidies?

Needs more LIDAR I think

[Chicken Genius @chickengenius]

Trump had a lot of support when he campaigned for fair trade. I mean, you tax me 20% I tax you 20%. Fair game.

He has since lost plenty of support from the people that donated to him. Fixing trade deficit is so fking stupid. Watch this clip of Jeffery Sachs that went viral.

EU AND CHINA START NEGOTIATIONS TO ABOLISH EU TARIFFS ON CHINESE ELECTRIC VEHICLES - HANDELSBLATT

[kira 👾 @kirawontmiss]

Chinese people are creating AI generated videos mocking Americans because of the tariff war😭

[808 @8obmac]

@farzyness Your mighty Trump who thought he could bully the world, folded. 56 countries reciprocated tariffs on the US and guess what, Trump folded. This is when the entire school ground all pull together and fights back the bully. The world now knows how to fight back. Good luck on day 91.

[808 @8obmac]

@farzyness Why would the Western world want to play nice with Trump after he just made enemies of his "friends"? Very risky strategy fire bullets at the world and then expecting those victims to side with America. If the majority of the world side with China, it's End Game for US.

[808 @8obmac]

@garyblack00 The Chinese are resilient people; they can and will outlast the US if these tariffs escalate further. A bonus is that the US has made enemies of its "friends," which will open doors for China to trade freely with them.

I’m hearing they are dumping UST to try and move rates to shift narrative and make our upcoming Treasury auctions more expensive.

May make sense to delay auctions to next week. China can’t sell indefinitely.

[808 @8obmac]

@wholemars Such a sh!tty car company. They should stay in their lane with FSD, AI, and robotics. Leave the auto industry to the legacy automakers living in the past.

[Ray @ray4tesla]

Another shocking scenario that blows the minds of Chinese FSD testers: FSD patiently waits for the opposing traffic to clear before proceeding in this lane-less construction zone with no human intervention. It probably perceives tire track as a lane. FSD seems to have a human brain, knowing exactly what a human driver would do in this case. Wonder how competing systems would handle this scenario.

FSD nailed it flawlessly. @Tesla_AI @aelluswamy
