Spencer Pratt got 0 out of 24,000 votes in a late night LA ballot drop.

0/24,000

A guy getting around 30% support got 0 out of 24,000.

Astronomically small probability of happening.

Impossible.

California no longer even hides it.

Doors need to be kicked in.

And for some reason, there are airlines that chose the unproven solution. Wake up people! Choose @Starlink already!

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Starlink V3 satellites have >10X bandwidth of V2 and there’ll be >10X launched, which means >100X more bandwidth.

Also, altitude will be 350km vs 550km, so min latency can be cut in half.

Light travels 300km/ms in space, so physics round trip min latency drops to <5ms.

According to artificial intelligence, the statistical probability of Spencer Pratt getting 0 out of 24,000 votes in last nights late night Los Angeles ballot drop is “1 in trillions”

California Democrats are rigging the election

@MyBankIsFat I missed it b/c of work. Congratulations!

NEW: Goldman Sachs reportedly forecasts SpaceX’s AI division revenue will grow 9,900% within four years, reaching $322,000,000,000.00 by 2030.

This is definitely in need of a major overhaul. It’s 2026!!!

Dear @elonmusk,

I swore I would never buy anything but a Tesla ever again…

You asked people to make more babies

I can’t do both unless @tesla builds a full size SUV off the @cybertruck platform!

-Sincerely
Everyone

@SEGA I remember choosing you over the Super Nintendo. Happy birthday!

Nothing like taking an hour out of your day to drive your kids to school then realizing that they forgot something at home so then you have to do it again. (28 minutes one way) I’m definitely thankful for Full Self Driving. It makes it less like a chore and just enjoying the ride.

[Elijah Nicolas @eejay]

Four years of amazing ownership with our @tesla Model X. Only imperfection is that it’s HW3. Saves me ~$4k a year. Probably more.

Comparative Cost Analysis to a Honda Odyssey (better gas mileage than SUV @ ~20mpg) which we still own.

101,150 miles
10-12 oil changes = $1200
101150/20mpg = 5,057.5 gals * 4.49 average = 5057.5*$4.49=$22,708.175

101,150 @ 32,755 kWh @ $0.20 average = $6,551.

22708.175-6551=$16,157.175 which comes out to an additional ~$4k a year.

Note: I’m using a lower average price of gas and a higher price of kWh. Real numbers have a higher differential so essentially I’m being more conservative. EVs are truly the best family mover.

Also, you CAN’T discount the safety of Full-Self-Driving, the crash rating, comfortability, sound system, entertainment system… overall it’s been tremendous! My wife genuinely thought this model of car would be her last. Almost traded in for the outgoing last model but we were too slow in pulling the trigger. Maybe we’ll ride it out another 100k miles.

[Pejjy @CuriousPejjy]

This is insane...

It took 69 years for governments all around the world to launch nearly 4,900 Stateline in orbit.

But it only took SpaceX 8 years to launch nearly 10,000.

🤯

[Elijah Nicolas @eejay]

If basic WiFi on aircraft can’t even stream short stories on instagram or load posts on X, what are we even doing? Can’t wait for @starlink to dominate, well, except the two carriers choosing to be different in the US.

Colombia just held their election.

They require voter ID and use paper ballots. They hand-count the votes of each station one by one. No machines or mail-in ballots due to security concerns.

~24 million votes.
It was all done in a couple hours.

Like honestly "it's going to take us several weeks to tell you who won the election" is failed state shit and should be much more stigmatized.
