I want to trade in my model 3 for a model 3 performance in stealth grey with black interior, and take advantage of the FSD transfer this month. I live in OK, and local Tesla service is telling me I can only purchase from MO - who do not have the car I want. Memphis has 2, and I'll be there next week, but apparently I can't buy there? @Tesla @elonmusk Help? How do I get the car I want?

@elonmusk Tesla delivered on its promise of a $35k car in 2019. I bought one. I got the upgrade to + from SR, and paid for FSD, but here's the receipt showing the base price of $35k

[div odd sieve art @odddiv]

@sunbin280356121 @alojoh @Tesla I bought one. In 2019. Model 3 SR+ base price was $35k before fsd and my + upgrade.

a while ago you asked what content we wanted. I learned how to cook (as opposed to heating things from boxes) watching GE, and since no one has an attention span now, short-form works (just... maybe not tiktok) I also think the moving overhead view rig you had would go over well.

@altonbrown charcoal is for the grill. gas is for the range/oven. electric is for everything else.
Although I will admit an electric smoker is outstanding for temp control, and while I like the idea of induction ranges, it would be easier to buy a new house than to retrofit, for me.

@tkulogo @elonmusk The first two digits are 80 - this theory doesn't stand up to even the most brief scrutiny

@mita_nyt @elonmusk @John_M_Q Math is hard, huh? 181 is prime. So is 281 and 881.

It's really depressing that ars has abandoned any pretense at journalistic integrity. There's a lot of inconvenient (to the author, and the author's narrative) facts that got left out, as well as some very creatively delivered falsehoods - like this: "What violence has occurred at protests themselves seems limited to on-site spats that mostly target protesters" - where the author deftly inserts "at protests themselves" and "seems" to make it appear that the only violence has been aimed at protesters, while the truth is that protesters have repeatedly engaged in violent acts, shooting at and setting fire to vehicles and property.
The claim in the article that, "every protester who spoke to WIRED insisted that they are not being paid and are exactly what they appear to be" is another great example of misdirection - the author can stand behind that statement as true because the only people they talked to toed the party line, and the author took them at their word with no further investigation (why would a journalist ever need to investigate or validate anyone's claims). Sure, they aren't paid or outside funded - please ignore that Indivisible logo on their pre-printed signs. That's definitely not any kind of proof of outside funding, and since Musk didn't post all of the evidence himself - he just linked and reposted it - the author can say that Musk offered no proof.
This shoddy and misleading reporting is a disgrace.

Congress is supposed to make the laws.
The executive branch is supposed to enforce the laws, provide direction, and set policy.
The judicial branch is supposed to interpret the laws

What actually happens:
Congress refuses to pass laws, instead using the underlying issues as campaign topics to keep their base engaged and get themselves re-elected. Congress delegates much of it's rule making to NGOs so that it can use that process to line their personal pockets.

The executive branch, hamstrung by Congress' refusal to make laws, issues executive orders to try to bridge the gap cause by congressional inaction. Everyone against the EO sues, leaving the judicial branch to try to arbitrate issues and ultimately establish the laws that congress refuses to write.

The judicial branch, having gotten it into their heads (because of congressional inaction and resulting executive overreach) that they are responsible for both enforcing and establishing law, issues blanket injunctions across every spectrum trying to patch all of the holes caused by no one doing their jobs and everyone trying to point fingers at everyone else.

The root cause is Congress, and their refusal to do their jobs without lining their own pockets and continually seeking to consolidate power into one political party.

You want to fix things? Fix Congress. Term limits, ban PAC's and all other forms of lobbying, ban elected officials from being able to go work in the industries that they were just responsible for regulating, ban omnibus bills, and - more than anything else - enforce the oaths that everyone in Congress takes to uphold the laws and constitution of the USA.

THIS is the difference between republicans and democrats. The gop posts a tweet. you will never see or hear any further action. If this was MAGA supporters risking lives to influence an election you'd see the media leap to action with 24/7 coverage of outrage, daily violent protests, and dozens of lawsuits.

@matt_vanswol @SpeakerPelosi The millions left without care are the millions of illegal aliens her party is responsible for importing (also illegally). I'm not sure how she plans to line her pockets though - usually she does that through insider trading. Clearly she has a plan - she wouldn't lie.
