Elon Musk
Will Never Stop Choosing You
Sweetheart, love isn't just about saying beautiful words. It's about staying when things become difficult, understanding when words fail, and choosing each other even when life isn't easy. I want to be the person who reminds you that you're worthy of real love every single day. My heart has made its choice, and that choice is you. π
I want no pay, no awards, no recognition or fancy title. I just want America to reach greater heights πΊπΈβ€οΈβ

Tesla Robotaxi just crossed 4.5 million autonomous miles
Tesla's live counter: 4,501,219 miles driven autonomously
That's about 13,500 miles in four hours - a pace of ~81,000 miles a day
Tesla's safety results with no safety monitor in the car (Jan 22βOct 18):
β’ 0 people injured by Robotaxi
β’ 0 airbag deployments
β’ 0 pedestrians or cyclists hit
From Tesla's safety page:
"Human drivers could have caused 9.1 collisions with injuries in the same number of miles"
Rides now run in Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston, Miami, Orlando and Tampa
Las Vegas, Jacksonville, Phoenix and San Antonio are coming soon
At this pace, 5 million lands around Nov 11-12
The autonomous future is compounding in real time
Imagine tearing down the neon-lit streets of Vice City in this exact slammed Lunar Silver Tesla Model S Plaid. With its hypercar-crushing tri-motor acceleration, aggressive carbon fiber aero kits, and that menacing lowered stance tucked over massive black multi-spoke wheels, it would be the ultimate sleeper build to humiliate supercars in GTA 6. π₯π₯π₯

Elon's right β unless you have the pleasure of living with one everyday, you have no idea just how awesome and versatile Cybertruck is. Charlie the Cyberbeast is our family's daily driver, camping rig, office on wheels, and overall engine of joy. FSD in blizzards, Starlink keeps us connected everywhere rain or shine and he puts a smile on the kids faces every time they are on board. Best robot on wheels and best product anyone can own. Thank you Elon and Tesla!!!

South America after launching in Chile, Colombia and Uruguay.
I actually feel bad for Elon, even though I deeply disagree with him on some things.
Imagine trying to build a car company in California in the mid-2000s, when American manufacturing is being completely offshored and almost all of Wall Street thinks youβre a joke and is rooting for your failure, while the entire oil and gas industry is using all their power and leverage to make you fail.
But against all odds, you actually pull it off. You build cars that make electric vehicles desirable to millions of people, create an enormous number of quality American jobs, and force the global car industry to play catch up and move away from oil and gas.
You would think California would be proud of you and the team. Instead you find yourself having to fight a completely corrupt and incompetent left government impeding all your efforts while you sleep at the factory night after night to avoid collapse. At some point, you would go to the right too.
And because of your politics, it becomes a justification for people to celebrate your companies failing in their personal ideological fight with you. Even threats against you become something people explain away and use mental gymnastics to justify.
Meanwhile, people like Scott Galloway and Bernie Sanders who have made absolutely nobody better off other than themselves get to lecture you about your value to society and even call for your murder without grounds from their vacation home while you're on 20 hour benders in your factories trying to get things built for all of society. If this were me I would lose my mind.
Criticize his opinions. I do sometimes, especially on Ukraine. But the pleasure people take in wanting to destroy everything heβs built is hideous and frankly suicidal for the masses, especially coming from people who insist they care about workers, the climate, and civilization as a whole.
As you try to make good things for society you are confronted with a world that worships people who care only about the perception of being good people, while they actually fight against your tangible efforts of making improvements for humanity.
I don't think almost anyone would have made it out of that and if they did, they would probably not come away feeling so warm towards the left either. So I am rooting for Elon to succeed, and for humanity.
The self-driving menu is perhaps a bit unintuitive to a new user, do you agree?
I just finished watching the new @linusgsebastian video where he tries FSD for the first time, and a lot of his issues stem from a misunderstanding of the systemβ¦ but to he honest I donβt really blame him.
TARS is my Cybertruckβs name.
I named the truck after the sarcastic, intelligent, reliable & very capable ai/robot from the amazing movie βInterstellarβ.
