@Vierdan3 @eurofounder Did Trump invent the model Y?

[Jonathan Morton @mortonovich]

@therealmissjo I wonder how often it happens and no-one realises.

[Jonathan Morton @mortonovich]

@HarryTinders @eurofounder I find it funny

All you're gaining (or offering buyers) is $100/month for the life of the car. That's not worth much. Maybe cost will increase, but only until the competition catch up.
That said, I bought one with that in mind but it's my daily driver. In the future it may be a robotaxi but in the meantime I've got a great fun car.

@SERobinsonJr, have you seen this?
A great idea.

Hey @elonmusk, hopefully you see this. I know Tesla is planning to move FSD to a subscription only model, which makes sense from a business perspective.

But I have a proposal. The people who bought FSD outright didn't just buy a feature. They invested in the vision. They funded the early development and helped train the AI to where it is today. That contribution should be recognized, not erased.

FSD should stay with their accounts, not be locked to one car's VIN. In ten years, when they upgrade to a new Tesla, they shouldn't have to start a subscription. Instead, they should carry FSD forward as a badge of honor. It would be proof they helped build this.

Imagine a small identifier in the app showing they were early believers. We all love Tesla and believe in an autonomous future. This would honor the community members who truly paved the way.

Let's recognize the pioneers who helped make FSD a reality. @aelluswamy @Tesla_AI @siddawa @larsmoravy @Tesla @tesla_na @cybertruck @woodhaus2 @wmorrill3

@lucagrecoita SCORECARD

[Luca Greco @lucagrecoita]

I track every 6,000+ ton die casting machine in the world.

Not estimations. Not press releases. Verified installations.

Most people in this industry are guessing which OEMs are winning the Gigacasting race.

They're reading announcements and assuming they'll become reality.

But here's the truth:

→ Many Chinese suppliers announce massive orders that never get fulfilled
→ One company ordered 6 machines - only 1 was installed
→ The gap between "announced" and "installed" is massive

I've spent years building a database that tracks:

- Every 6,000t+ machine ordered AND installed worldwide
- Which OEMs own them and where they're located
- Which suppliers make them (IDRA, LK, Bühler, Haitian)
- The real Gigacasting production numbers - not the hype

I've put together a one-page scorecard showing:

- Total machines installed by region (China vs Europe vs Americas)
- Top 10 OEMs by machine count
- Which manufacturers dominate the market
- The "announced vs installed" reality check

This is the data foundries, OEMs, and analysts ask me for every week.

Want the Gigacasting Machine Scorecard?

2. Comment "SCORECARD" below

I'll send you the PDF.

Dogs have been bred for specific purposes. You want a dog "fit for role". Rounding sheep, a sheep dog, for hunting, gun dog, or suitable for whatever you are hunting, perhaps a Weimaraner if it is lions. Companion, one of the smaller poodle breeds or poodle cross. Standard poodles are gun dogs. Etc.

@AngelaBelcamino I see you 😊
