I suggest that you read any articles here on X that @BrianRoemmele posts
My parents were so resistant to using @Tesla FSD
Now, they consider it their favorite innovation
Persuade your elders to try it!
An 80-year-old praises Tesla FSD for making his 3,000-mile road trip easier and less tiring.
Bill Sniffin took the trip with his wife and daughter. He says his Tesla handled about 2,800 miles while he stayed attentive and supervised.
“This feature, alone, makes this car a good fit for an older person.”
He loves driving, but gets tired more easily at his age. Tesla made the journey less tiring, helping him keep enjoying something he loves.
This is why FSD matters for older people. Tesla is building technology that can make a real difference in everyday life.

This update to Grok Bot with integrated calling is spectacular!
I have dozens of clients and myself that use this daily with an external MPC. But with version 0.77 we will have this integrated!
Grok Bot get better just about daily!
Look for a whole slew of Grok Bots I will release that will make calls.
Some never seen before.
Stuff only Grok Bot can do.
Grok @Bot can now call someone or a business for you, make a request on your behalf, take notes on the response and send you a note summarizing the conversation!
I believe the same Creator of the Universe that Jesus called “daddy” calls @nayibbukele “son”.
This post reminds me of Moses leading his people across the Red Sea, David running towards Goliath, and Jesus calling Lazarus out of the grave.
May justice come through his courage.
Muchos mensajes, análisis y comentarios como este, asegurando que las pandillas de Haití no son como las de El Salvador; que son sanguinarias, que están fuertemente armadas, que nadie ha podido vencerlas, que todas las misiones han fracasado, que estamos cayendo en una trampa, que no sabemos a lo que nos enfrentamos, que será nuestra ruina, que vamos camino a nuestro Waterloo.
Pero cuando Dios nos conceda la victoria, los mismos que hoy dicen todo eso cambiarán su discurso. Dirán que siempre fue fácil, que cualquiera podía hacerlo, que las pandillas de Haití no eran tan peligrosas como se pensaba.
En fin, nunca los hemos escuchado y no vamos a empezar ahora.
Todos los que se han enlistado son creyentes y hemos encomendado esta misión a Dios, mientras que las pandillas de Haití son satánicas y es de conocimiento público que hacen sacrificios humanos.
Dios nos concederá la victoria. El Creador del Universo está con nosotros.

More Than A Marathon On A Wharf
For nearly 12 hours, the Capitola Wharf became a moving interview studio as I filmed for more than 20 miles, primarily walking backwards.
@rizautile and @IanUtile (my dad) had invited people to join them for the Capitola Wharf Marathon as they set out to walk a full marathon along our local pier built in 1857. They wanted to live stream their friends’ stories while encouraging donations to the local Peoples Pantry that feeds hundreds of families per week.
This memorable day brought together people who lead small businesses, city government, and local communities.
Albert Wright opened the morning by sounding a shofar, an instrumental ram’s horn about three feet long, as the sun glistened behind him on the Pacific Ocean. He has been showing up for important moments in our family’s lives for the last decade, and this was how we wanted to begin another one.
I was excited to meet people and learn from an experienced media team, having helped at similar events before, but filming while communicating through a headset with a router in my backpack provided an exciting new challenge.
These articles reveal some of the things that stuck with me over the last couple weeks from the conversations that went on as the day unfolded. I hope to not only show the passion in these attendees for the purpose they’ve dedicated their lives to, but the impact, and what this means for each of us.
After the echo of the shofar faded across the water, my dad cast the vision for the day: “Let’s walk!”
Small Business Culture Can Impact Local Community
When the Santa Cruz wildfires forced people from their homes in 2020, Jeremy Schmidt turned a grocery store parking lot into a place where his neighbors could come for a free dinner.
After tending to his own family, Jeremy looked for ways to help. Some people needed somewhere to store cars during the evacuation, so he made space at his auto-repair shop. Others were forced to stay in hotels and fall back to eating out, which led him to cook food for his neighbors.
He went to Costco to buy meat, and then let people know when to meet together. On some of those nights during the fires, his community lined up in a random parking lot to eat together. “I saw a need, so I wanted to fill it,” he told my dad (@IanUtile) during their conversation at the Capitola Wharf Marathon.
That concern for people also appears in how Jeremy describes running AE Motorsports (and now his second shop, Nate Smith’s Optimal Auto). Customer service and employee happiness are priorities in his business culture. Yet he acknowledges it must stay financially healthy enough to provide his staff with options like healthcare and retirement.
The community meals and the employee benefits are separate ways to fill a visible need, but both required Jeremy to put forth the effort to turn what mattered to him into something people could actually receive. In the middle of an anxious time, that included offering his auto-repair shop space, his ability to cook, and the resources he had to meet tangible needs around him.
In our day-to-day lives, how can we respond in ways that make our personal culture felt to those around us?
We joined a disc golf competition together this week at De LaVeaga. It was so fun to play together. @rizautile got her very first par. She also won the women’s division and received a bunch of prizes for getting 1st place. Riza was the only woman that competed. Sometimes just showing up and trying can make you a champion. – at Santa Cruz, CA
