@FredLambert @ZacksJerryRig What is the load rating in the cyber truck? Assuming this is not AI..

@ionnaofficial What is happening at the Placerville, CA site? Went there last weekend for the 20c / kWh promo but it is still not switched on.

@erscrofano @SenatorSlama @om It’s a decent chunk of change now… and 5G is becoming competitive with new service options.

[Marc Musgrove @MarcMusgrove]

This will be interesting to track and see how it works out. The @robotaxi fleet could potentially use this capability

🇺🇸 Florida is putting wireless EV chargers inside the highway itself.

Drive over it, get charged, no more anxiety issues.

If this scales nationally, the last real argument against EVs just disappears.

@Losty2 @anishmoonka @ElectrifyAm Well yes, but it’s a start…

@Nolliag66 @frontlinekit This is an April Fool surely?

@CarsonRanger @HVconditions @skiheavenly I think that’s what they are saying - gondola closed so sightseeing is available at the tram instead. And if they let you walk around at the top, you can easily walk down the cat track to Lakeview and eat lunch.

[Marc Musgrove @MarcMusgrove]

@CarsonRanger @HVconditions I would think so, but you should probably call to confirm

@shai_wininger @Tesla Presumably this is being trialled in AZ to see if the concept works and then rolled out to CA etc? How will it work with a mix of FSD and human driving. At times, we still need to drive when FSD has some issues currently.

Was definitely chilly up @KirkwoodMTN too last night!

[Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch]

THE ALGORITHM STAYED IN BEIJING

They told you TikTok was sold to America.

They lied.

December 18, 2025. The most sophisticated information operation in human history just received official U.S. blessing.

The deal structure they hope you never read:

ByteDance retains 20% direct ownership. ByteDance “affiliates” retain 30%. Combined: majority economic interest still flows to Beijing.

But here is what changes everything.

The algorithm never left China.

Per sources familiar with the agreement: ByteDance will continue to own and update the recommendation engine. American “auditors” will observe. Observe. Not control. Not own. Not modify.

You are witnessing the birth of algorithmic colonialism.

170 million Americans will wake up tomorrow believing their feeds are now “American.” They will scroll content served by code written in Beijing, optimized in Beijing, updated in Beijing.

The attention of half the U.S. population under 30 remains architecturally tethered to Chinese servers.

Oracle gets cloud hosting fees. Silver Lake gets a press release. Larry Ellison gets a photo op with the President.

China keeps the engine that shapes American reality.

This is not a divestiture. This is a licensing agreement disguised as sovereignty.

The precedent now established: Any nation can maintain psychological infrastructure inside America as long as the holding company has a Delaware address.

What was sold: A corporate shell.
What was retained: The machine that decides what 170 million people think about next.

January 22, 2026. The deal closes.

The algorithm stays exactly where it has always been.

Welcome to the age where ownership is theater and code is control.

The empire that writes the algorithm writes the future.

They did not sell TikTok.

They rebranded it.

@mrfundman Seems like it has a ways to go
