Elon Musk explains why charging your EV to 100% on a road trip is a mistake:
On a road trip, your instinct is to fill the battery all the way up.
That's how you'd treat a gas tank.
But a battery doesn't work like a gas tank.
Charge to about 80%. Drive it down to 10% or less. Repeat.
This is just for long trips, when you want to spend as little time at the charger as possible.
Elon: "Getting from 80 to 100, it takes about as much time as getting from 0 to 80."
The reason is what's happening inside the battery.
Lithium ions travel from one side to the other, looking for a place to settle.
Think of them as cars hunting for a parking spot.
When the lot is empty, they zip right in.
As it fills up, they have to circle around, like at a packed mall.
So the closer the battery gets to full, the slower it charges.
The last few spots take the longest to find.

Captain Ibrahim Traoré stood before his nation and spoke a truth that had been buried for over a thousand years. He named the Arab slave trade. Not in whispers. Not in academic papers. But in a televised address, to a country that is overwhelmingly Muslim.
"The people came, first the Arab-Muslim conquests. That is over a thousand years of slavery in Africa," he said. He spoke of men castrated so they could not father children. He named the year 1962, when the last slave market closed in Medina. He refused to let silence protect a historical crime.
This was not an attack on Islam. Traoré is a Muslim himself. This was an act of reckoning. He was saying what the entire continent had been afraid to say: that Africa was enslaved by two systems, and only one of them is allowed to be remembered. The West's crime is taught in schools. The East's crime is erased.
The reaction was swift and fierce. Gulf states condemned him. Some clerics called it Islamophobic. But Traoré pressed forward. He announced that Burkina Faso would recall hundreds of students studying Sharia law abroad, warning that some returned with teachings incompatible with national unity. He declared the state secular, and no religious law—Islamic or otherwise—would govern it.
Why does this matter? Because the Sahel is burning. Jihadist groups are recruiting with a distorted version of faith, and that distortion has been imported and funded from outside Africa for centuries. By naming the Arab slave trade, Traoré severed the spiritual authority that foreign clerics have held over African Muslims. He asked a question that should echo across the continent: "Are we cursed?" His answer was no. Africa was not cursed. Africa was conquered, colonized, and enslaved by two different powers. And the only way to break free is to name it, teach it, and refuse to let it be silenced.

Elon Musk just dropped Neuralink's craziest bombshell:
“In the next 6 to 12 months, we're going to implant the first vision devices. Even if you're 100% blind from birth, we're going to write directly to your visual cortex… and you're going to see.”
“And that's just the beginning. In the long term, you'll have ultra-HD resolution and real superpowers: you'll see in infrared, ultraviolet, and even radar. Literally like a superhero.”
The future is no longer science fiction. It's Neuralink.
“He could have solved world hunger instead of building a flying car”
My brother in Christ,
In 2021 the UN claimed they could solve world hunger with $6 Billion.
Elon offered them the $6 Billion if they were transparent with where the funds were going.
The UN never took his offer.
Your God will ignore terrorists that massacre his children daily, allow kids be born with cancer, do nothing to politicians that steal his people’s future but then decide to show his power to teach me a lesson for not believing he exists
In the year 1516, the Catholic Church had a problem, they wanted to rebuild the Saint Peter’s basilica in Rome, but had no money to do it.
What did they do?? 😂😂😂😂😂
They sent a man named johan tezel to Germany to do one of the most nonsense and trivial bullshit in the history of religion and mankind 😂😂😂😂😂
He was sent across Germany to tell the people to drop money for their relatives in purgatory to be freed 😂😂😂😂😂😂
And people actually paid money to have their dead relatives in purgatory to be freed 😂😂😂😂😂
This my dear Protestant Christians, is the origin of your Protestantism you practice today, courtesy Martin Luther, who actually disagreed with the “holy” Roman Empire’s bullshit and it actually led to a war (which is a story for another day.
Whatever you do, always remember! Religion, culture and tradition are all man made and as such, are all subjective to change in the course of time. Emancipate your mind from mental bullshit
