Hey @Tesla and @elonmusk serious talk can we get an update down the road to change the incoming call ringtone in the cars? Currently sounds like the car is activating a self destruct feature or alerting you of an incoming attack when you get a phone call. Lol.

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

Don’t mind me just looking please continue.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

@sama We start flying them next year. Maybe you can come see them if your parole officer approves.

After stealing an open source AI charity, you then stole all of Apple’s phone technology! Wow.

What do you plan for an encore? That’s tough to beat.

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

Although not rooting for them to win. Switzerland didn’t deserve that red card that’s BS #fifa #worldcup

Le vol AC774 assurant la liaison entre Los Angeles et Montréal par 737 MAX de Boeing, a quitté la voie de circulation après son atterrissage à @yulaeroport, vers 16 h. Aucun blessé n'est signalé.

@markfonte @schweitzer_wil @Waymo The picture no. the story yes. They suspected they flew over a mortar round heard a big bang they continued to airport with no issues for inspection at the gate to see if it actually made contact with the plane.

@AmazonHelp do you guys have an email where I can send a complaint to about your drivers delivering to me. Consistently not following clear simple instructions I set in the app.

Packages lost, damaged, left exterior lobby rather than mail room. Or not delivered.

Consistently happening this is not a one off.

App is very hard to speak to anyone and always goes to AI which is no help. Want to flag my concerns to an actual human rep. @amazonca

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

@stormwx1 That was insane. Still can’t believe it

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

Well…. Looks like I know what I’m trading my current Y into.

I would not be surprised to see major damage in Watertown in NY from this now. Just wow. @weathernetwork #nywx

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

I tend to loose my FSD streak consistently not due to safety disengagements but for parking. For me in particular parking within parking garage at my place, or work sites.

Would love if Tesla implemented a “takeover” prompt when parking in parking garages that doesn’t effect FSD streak and the “why did you disengage” doesn’t show up.

At least until parking garages can get trained thoroughly. I could just let it park in any spot then move once the drive is completed but… I’m not

@gdsbagga89 @joshryanjames @BPFFA1068 @PeelPolice The officers car was hit by the vehicle and can only assume maybe some injures involved following the vehicle blowing through notice the fire fighter running with his med bags past the PD car

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

People are remarkably stupid. Almost hitting a fire fighter and if you look at the video police car took a decent hit. Hopefully none of the first responders got injured and this driver got caught and charged.

[The Rabbit Hole @TheRabbitHole]

Don’t worry about Elon becoming rich with his own money.

Worry about politicians becoming rich with your money.

[Billy Pickles @BillyPickles6]

Where to even begin.

First private company to revolutionize space travel by making rockets reusable slashing launch cost significantly.

Bringing home stranded astronauts.

Starlink network under @elonmusk direction has provided free satellites to remote, underserved or disaster struck areas across the world which connect to his global network.

Creating a company where people with paralysis from ALS or spinal cord injuries can control computers or devices and prosthetic robotic arms using their thoughts.

This is just to name a few of things he’s done before he’s made the trillion. And it’s important to note this trillion dollar valuation is not in his pocket he’s using the money to invest in people’s future!

[Amy Siskind @Amy_Siskind]

Imagine if Elon Musk did something to benefit others with his trillion.

This is insane!!!

OMG 😍😍 Sunset mothership insanity between #Lampman & #Willmar, #Saskatchewan - June 6th 2026. One of the easiest, most relaxing and most rewarding chases of my career. Barely moving for 2.5hrs before strolling East with the storm.

Thank you Canada 🇨🇦

@Teslarati I have mine on all the time. I have long range Y don’t really see much percentage drop. I have mine set to always keep the car under 40C (104f) not the lower options.
