@RealSkipBayless That aged well…

The scale of Starship, for those that think it’s not that big

[L’Aurel @laureldascal]

@Riley_Gaines_ How do we know this had to do with race? Fights in sports can happen for many reasons.. Is there more context here? I didn’t watch the game so can someone help me understand?

@ThePursuit7 @7thGeneration3 @SawyerMerritt For standard autopilot or older FSD, I agree it’s useless other than on the highway.
New FSD can drive pretty much anywhere (March update).
I recommend you try it again if you prefer self driving over other vehicle features.
Never driven Lucid so I can’t speak on its FSD.

@commander91 @ZaleskiLuke @elonmusk Where would Tesla be without Musk? Finding the right people and risking your fortune on something that seemed impossible is a bold undertaking. I don’t have to be a fan, but I can recognize his team’s efforts and his contributions.

No cell reception so I tried to watch the stream on my Tesla and it worked flawlessly!

@GewoonLukas_ @lazaro25noguei1 Darn it. Guess I’ll have to wait to see my first launch :( thanks for the info!

[L’Aurel @laureldascal]

@GewoonLukas_ @lazaro25noguei1 Does this mean I shouldn’t drive 6 hours hoping for a Wednesday launch?

Elon Musk talking about Tesla competing with the large traditional automakers back in 2008

~85% of the cars on American roads are used to transport only one person. That’s a lot of empty seats and wasted space. The vast majority of Uber rides only transport 1-2 people. Because of this, Tesla's Robotaxi likely won't be as big as the Model 3/Y.

Tesla's Robotaxi will be an entirely new car based on Tesla's next-generation platform. It will be very efficient and cost up to 50% less to produce vs Model 3/Y.

It'll use a groundbreaking manufacturing process that Tesla calls the "Unboxed Process." Parts are assembled simultaneously in dedicated areas and then all put together at the end. This will reduce manufacturing footprints by 44%. could cut production costs by 50%.

Regarding safety, a primary aim of Tesla's push for full self-driving and the mainstream adoption of Robotaxi is to save lives, a goal that everyone should support.

Tesla owners have now cumulatively driven over 1 billion miles on FSD, and all without a single recorded death, a stark contrast to the 1.33 deaths per 100 million miles traveled when humans are driving, according to NHTSA data.

Lastly, all this doesn't mean that Tesla's ~$25k compact car is canceled. That car and the Robotaxi are based on the same platform. It's possible Elon has become even more confident in FSD since version 12 launched that he wants Tesla to start production on the Robotaxi first and maybe do the $25k version with a steering wheel later, which they can likely do pretty easily due to the shared parts.

August 8th should be very interesting.

Totality: An HDR composite image of yesterday's eclipse. This photo used 5 cameras to capture thousands of photos during a 4 minute period.

My goal was to capture the magic of the visual experience, and I hope this photo evokes similar emotions I experienced while watching it.

@giftgab538 @elonmusk I’m a believer that we do need to help less fortunate individuals, but the method is important. We don’t want to be the richest country in the world and still have disabled or elderly people on the streets. At the same time we don’t want to pay people who are able to work.

@mkryst70 @semisweetjenn What if you financed and you car gets wrecked? My insurance and financier won’t offer gap insurance to Tesla anymore.

@shhmobby Herman Miller Aeron. Best chair ever. New is 1.5K but I got a used for $450. Every office building has them. You can literally sit for hours with no discomfort
