Tesla has now delivered more than 10 MILLION vehicles and deployed over 130 GWh of energy storage worldwide

That includes millions of electric vehicles, Powerwall batteries for homes, and massive Megapack installations supporting electricity grids

And Tesla is also working on an entirely different scale of transportation and automation with Cybercab, Semi, Optimus, and autonomous driving technology

Phil Ivey won £7.7 million at a casino that refused to pay him. The UK Supreme Court later ruled he cheated. Poker legend Daniel Negreanu called the way casinos treated him “disgusting.”

In the video below, Negreanu explains why he believes the casinos were happy to exploit Ivey until he found a way to beat them.

Ivey and his partner spotted tiny differences on the backs of the cards. They persuaded the dealer to rotate certain cards, allowing them to distinguish high cards from low ones.

The casino supplied the decks and agreed to their requests. Ivey never needed to touch the cards himself.

Negreanu argues that a casino cannot offer someone a game, accept their money and then reject the result when they win. He points to the free drinks, flights and other perks casinos use to keep gamblers playing.

He also describes casinos offering Ivey rebates on his losses. They wanted his business badly enough to give him better terms, and he worked out how to use those terms against them.

If a casino agrees to every request and then refuses to pay when you win, who actually broke the rules?

I see the protests in France are trending.

Since I just spent 10 days there during the heart of them, I figured I'd chime in with what's actually going on.

The news and clickbait accounts on X will show you the outlier events: burning buildings, raging violence and everything that triggers you.

I was in the heart of Aix en Provence during the biggest protest day and filmed the center where it was happening. (See below)

This is right the University, across from the church, dead center of town.

The students are dancing, singing, kicking soccer balls and have comically barricaded the entrance doors to force the school to close.

I visited many cities in France during the protest period, and saw zero violence or malpractice of any kind.

More broadly, I spent more than a month this year in France across 3 trips and 10+ cities, including Paris, Bordeaux, Aix en Provence, Nice, Antibes, Biarritz, and others, and it's incredibly safe, charming, peaceful and beautiful.

Every city I visited is nicer than almost every American city, and there's zero comparison.

So much that it wouldn't even be insulting to France to try, because nobody who has spent significant time in both countries would take this comparison seriously.

I spoke with the students at length about their views. I also spoke with waiters, drivers, merchants, staff and whoever.

They were all civil, well articulated and genuinely wanted to see change.

We can disagree about their reasoning, logic or whatever, and it's true that France has fiscal problems, but to chalk up the France protests to raging extremist violence from "pick your favorite group to blame", is a laughable misrepresentation of what's actually going on.

If you exclusively watch the news and believe the top 1% extreme situations, you have likely been psyoped.

Bill Burr: “How big does your yacht have to be? I have no problem with people having zillions of dollars, but pay the workers, give them benefits. Most people don’t have ridiculous demands. It’s like I would like to have a family, be able to clothe, shelter, and feed them and not have to worry every month that I’m gonna be homeless. The more of a reptile you are, the more ruthless you are, it’s respected in business. They hide behind well that’s how business is done. No, it isn’t. That’s how you’re doing business”

Reporter: You said that Iran cannot have nuclear weapons. Why not? North Korea can have nuclear weapons.

Trump: Kim Jong-un. He's a friend of mine. I like him. As long as I’m around, he’s going to be fine. He respects me, and he likes me.

Trump is unfit to be the POTUS.

So weird, the Kennedy Center was financially stable and a meaningful contributor to the arts for 55 years. It was revenue positive by $41M in 2024. Gotta wonder what happened in the last 16 months to bring it so low.

In the United States of America, billionaire stadium owners should not be able to silence artists because they speak out on political issues.

Today it is the genocide in Gaza. What's next?

If they can silence one artist, they can silence anyone.

Ron White to Joe Rogan: Talarico didn't cost this state $6 million in fines and lawsuits, and that happened with Ken Paxton. Guess who paid that $6 million? You and me paid the $6 million for his bribery. His own party impeached him. He's a criminal. He's a piece of shit.

@rampagepoker Congratulations on all of your success. I think I'm in the first 46000 :-)

[Rampage @rampagepoker]

The name “Rampage” originated long before 2018. It spawned in 2009 as I ventured into my very first attempt at content creation. As a 12 year old, I was obsessed with Call of Duty and needed a username to both join a clan and attempt making content about the gameplay. This started my journey into trying and failing over 20 different YouTube channels/ideas between 2009 and 2018 until I discovered the poker niche. 

I tell this story to set context - it’s extremely easy to look at someone with X number of followers on social media and think everything portrayed like sunshine and rainbows. When you look at all the biggest creators in the world today, everyone started with the same number; zero. The common denominator that sets them apart is consistency, dedication, and a delusional amount of self confidence. I’m not here to compare myself to the top creators but I did put in the time, effort, and work to get to nearly 400,000 subscribers on Youtube. This was by no means an overnight success story, especially competing in a small market niche space like poker. But the reel above shows my subscriber count in 2018, when in reality my journey started in 2009 recording videos with a flip phone that was propped up in a frisbee disc between 2 remote controllers. Talk about bootstrapping.

My start with poker content started like a lightning in a bottle, after all my trial and errors with YouTube - I uploaded my very first poker vlog, my best half assed attempt to display a semblance of knowledge about the game even though it was my 3rd time every playing. This was classic 101 larping. But I recall within 24 hours of the upload on YouTube, this video generated over 1,000 views and I FREAKED. This was an unbelievable number that I’ve never seen before in any of my previous content ventures. Immediately all indicators pointed towards poker, there was clearly something special here. And even though I knew nothing about the game, I was going to document the entire journey and used poker as a way to create content.
