@SawyerMerritt@SpaceX Schwab gave me 17 SPCX shares of the 250 that I requested. I am probably going to wait until my TSLA shares turn into SPCX shares after Tesla is bought out.
@Teslarati After moving from NY to FL, I switched the Cabin Overheat Protection option from On to No A/C. My battery was draining pretty fast - even after adding the maximum legal tint everywhere. The No A/C option is better than the Off option as it keeps items from melting.
@SawyerMerritt@Starlink I had this thought initially also, but Amazon launched Leo satellites tonight using ULA’s Atlas V. It looks like they didn’t expect to use the New Glen to ferry these for a while. That being said, it’s going to be a while before LC 36 is back online.
@SawyerMerritt@wholemars You would still give us FOMO Sawyer because you would not be able to resist posting about it. Maybe a better solution is to have more than two levels to select in the Software Updates section: Alpha, Beta, Stable. Then announce as each release is pushed.
@Teslarati Tesla FSD prevented two accidents this past week. In both cases, a car swerved toward the rear driver's side quarter panel of my Model Y and my car swerved to the right lane. Unless you have eyes in the back of your head, you would not have avoided these.
@SawyerMerritt@RonDeSantis@Tesla Thank you Sawyer for reaching out to my Governor. I have lived here less than a year now, but have noticed an abundance of CyberTrucks and very friendly people. Sadly, those two things are rare together.
It’s and epic sci-fi adventure with lush, dangerous alien beauty — think Avatar meets Arrival meets The Martian, but grounded in real atmospheric science. Sweeping orchestral score that shifts from wonder to urgent danger, with deep bass rumbles and crackling fire undertones.
hey @LegionMOfficial - I was chatting with Grok about the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout Earth’s history and it started to sound like a movie. Grok made me a movie poster and scripted the trailer for it. WDYT?
Title: OXYGEN
[FADE IN: Deep space. A sleek colony ship glides toward a blue-green planet. Voice-over — calm, authoritative female narrator (think Sigourney Weaver or a warm yet serious tone).]
VOICE-OVER:
“After decades of searching… we found it.
A planet almost identical to Earth.
Same gravity. Same day length. Same blue skies.”
[Cut to the landing sequence: The crew — a diverse team of scientists, engineers, and the determined mission commander (a strong, thoughtful woman in her 40s) — steps onto the surface. The air shimmers slightly. They take deep breaths.]
COMMANDER (removing her helmet, eyes widening):
“My God… feel that. The oxygen — it’s reading 34.8%. This isn’t just breathable… it’s alive.”
VOICE-OVER:
“But evolution took a different path here.”
[Wonder montage — beautiful and unsettling:]
• Vast forests of towering ferns and giant lycophytes swaying in the breeze.
• A dragonfly the size of a hawk glides gracefully overhead, iridescent wings catching sunlight.
• Herds of robust, mammal-like reptiles grazing — larger and more muscular than anything on Earth.
• A sudden spark ignites dry brush; fire races across the landscape with terrifying speed, yet the vegetation regrows almost instantly.
VOICE-OVER (building excitement):
“Here, every breath grants power.
Endurance without limits.
Strength you were never meant to have.”
[Action ramps up — music intensifies:]
• The team running effortlessly through dense jungle, barely sweating, covering ground that would exhaust any Earth human.
• A crew member laughs in disbelief: “I just sprinted two kilometers and I’m not even breathing hard!”
• Close-up on the commander: She effortlessly climbs a sheer rock face, muscles moving with unnatural efficiency. Subtle changes already visible — sharper eyes, faster reflexes.
[Surprise and danger elements — the “mildly familiar but surprising” angle:]
• A meter-long millipede (familiar segmented body, but scaled up massively) calmly crosses their path.
• An eagle-sized flying insect suddenly dives; the team scatters with surprising agility.
• One scientist examines glowing bioluminescent fungi: “High oxygen accelerated everything. Bigger bodies, faster metabolisms… and fire is a constant architect of this world.”
• A tense night scene: The camp is surrounded by shadows of giant arthropods. Firelight flickers wildly as flames spread unnaturally fast in the oxygen-rich air.
CREW MEMBER (urgent, excited):
“This planet didn’t just evolve differently — it evolved better. We could become something more here.”
[Dark turn — the cost of paradise:]
• A crew member winces as a small cut heals visibly faster… but then shows early signs of oxidative stress (subtle vein patterns or fatigue in the eyes).
• Commander, voice steady but concerned: “We came to colonize. But this air is changing us. Faster healing… higher energy… and maybe faster aging if we don’t adapt.”
VOICE-OVER (slow and ominous):
“A new home.
A new atmosphere.
A new version of humanity.”
[Climactic action sequence:]
• Epic shots: The team fighting a fast-moving wildfire while using their enhanced stamina to save equipment and each other.
• A dramatic standoff with a massive, fire-adapted creature that uses the oxygen-rich environment to its advantage.
• Final powerful image: The commander stands on a ridge, wind whipping her hair, looking out over a burning horizon and a vast, alien-yet-familiar forest. She takes a deep breath — empowered, yet wary.
[Title slams in with glowing, fiery text:]
OXYGEN
[Tagline appears below:] “Some worlds don’t just welcome you.
They remake you.”
VOICE-OVER (final, resonant):
“Colonize at your own risk.”
[End card:] “Arrival imminent. Adaptation… uncertain.”
@Teslarati do we know who got the invite to purchase? Was it previous Model S/X owners? I didn’t get an invite. I was an original Model 3 reservation holder and a Model Y Launch Edition owner. Guess that’s not enough.
@SawyerMerritt Don’t forget they have a five year lifespan and will need to de-orbit them before the fuel runs out. V3 Starlink Satellites are too big for anything other than Starship. Total bandwidth in space would be a better metric to watch, but the cadence is so impressive.
