An open offer to Tesla: We fully support putting Cybercab first, and we’d be glad to take the Cybertruck line off your hands.
We’d fund it with a consortium of investors and run it at no cost to Tesla’s floor space, headcount, or focus. All of that goes to Cybercab. Cybercab gets first call on battery cells too. We’ll wait our turn.
Tesla gains incremental profit: a license fee, plus FSD and Robotaxi network revenues on every vehicle built.
We’d build the Cybertruck, a three-row CyberSUV, and an unmanned CyberCargo hauler. More autonomous miles, across every surface of this planet and beyond.
Worth a conversation?

‘Waymo is basically like when you are pretty good at basketball and then all of a sudden you play a black person. and then you realize you’re not good at basketball at all that’s kind of like what’s happening with Waymo and Tesla right now.’

Doubt this gets seen or acknowledged, but seriously @teslasi please fix this! I’ve lost 2 aero covers already because of how narrow FSD takes right-hand turns in 📐. I hoped 14.3.10 would fix it, but it’s still happening. @wmorrill3 @aelluswamy @Tesla
Listen, lots of us love @cybertruck, but there are some that don’t, and FSD 14.3.8 waiting until the absolute last second to merge over before an exit or turn is making it damn near impossible to not intervene because someone doesn’t let me over. Please fix @teslasi @aelluswamy

Sounds like @cybertruck PowerShare with Powerwalls is coming very soon. 🤞🏼

My favorite capture of the night: The moment the moon's shadow split the sunset in half, leaving a diamond ring in the sky and a breathtaking view. I call it "Shadows on the Balearic Sea".
I'll have prints available for this one linked in my bio for a few days only.
The navigation in/out of parking lots might be the most fundamentally stupid part of FSD. It’s riddled with constant little unnecessary turns. Make it smarter please @teslasi

They left home as boys 8 decades ago to go out and save the world. Last night they sat at the WWII Memorial together and celebrated their country's 250th. Still heroic.
Much of NJ is out of power right now after the storms lastnight. A couple neighbors have generators, but even some have had them quit for random reasons. I have never been more grateful for my Tesla Powerwalls and solar. Powerwalls got me through the night and solar is recharging now to hopefully keep me powered until the grid comes back on tomorrow.

Once they send the OTA update for PowerShare to the home from my Cybertruck, I’ll never need to worry about grid outages again. Hopefully we’re not far from a fix? @wmorrill3 @teslaenergy

Homeless, yachtless Elon Musk, who actually builds rockets, EVs, and neural tech trying to benefit humanity, should apparently cough up $50 billion in taxes on unrealized gains.
Meanwhile, Laurene Powell Jobs ($15B inherited), Nancy Walton ($20B inherited), and MacKenzie Scott ($40B divorce) never built shit, never risked shit, and never shipped a single product that changed the world.
But they get the praise and zero scrutiny. Because they have the right politics.
(BTW ~25% of Walmart employees are on government benefits.)

Shame on every media outlets that inaccurately portrayed this as Tesla’s fault, misleading the public and damaging the company’s reputation in the process.
Tesla has just officially confirmed that the driver of the Model 3 that crashed into a home in Texas manually overrode the vehicle's self-driving system by pressing the accelerator pedal.
The vehicle struck the home at 73 mph. A lot of mainstream media wrongly mislead people into thinking that it was the vehicles fault.
Case closed.

I know how Elon Musk became a trillionaire. I don't know how Nancy Pelosi, Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren became millionaires...

Beaucoup de figures de gauche, aux US comme en Europe, qualifient Musk d'extrême droite. Certains vont jusqu'au mot « nazi ».
J'ai fait l'inverse de l'accusation : lire avant de juger. Deux biographies. Des dizaines d'heures d'interviews et de documentaires. Zéro once de racisme détectée.
Ce que j'ai trouvé, c'est une obsession constante pour la liberté : rachat de Twitter au nom de la liberté d'expression, réintégration des comptes bannis, publication des Twitter Files, ouverture du code de l'algorithme, open-source de Grok, brevets Tesla libérés en 2014, Starlink rallumé pour les Iraniens coupés du net pendant les manifestations et pour l'Ukraine, refus répété des demandes de censure étatiques.
Maintenant, faisons l'expérience de pensée que ses accusateurs ne font jamais. Imaginez que Musk soit réellement evil.
Cet homme possède un réseau de satellites qui couvre la planète, soit une capacité de surveillance quasi totale. Il possède la place publique numérique la plus influente du monde. Il possède la première fortune à 1000 milliards de l'Histoire, depuis l'IPO de SpaceX le 12 juin. Aucun individu n'a jamais concentré autant de leviers.
Un Musk réellement malveillant, avec ça dans les mains, ne tolérerait pas une seconde qu'on le traite de nazi H24 sur sa propre plateforme. Il bannirait. Il surveillerait. Il écraserait. On serait déjà dans 1984.
Or regardez la réalité : les comptes qui l'accusent de nazisme tweetent toujours. Tous les jours. Sans entrave. Sur son réseau. Avec son algorithme. La dystopie totalitaire qu'on lui prête se démontre par l'absence du goulag.
Voilà le retournement. 1984 le contrôle de la parole, la surveillance de masse, la désignation publique des hérétiques ce n'est pas son projet. C'est le fantasme de ceux qui l'accusent. L'accusation décrit toujours l'accusateur.
C'est du Girard à l'état pur : on désigne un bouc émissaire pour ne pas voir le mécanisme qu'on porte soi-même. Celui qui hurle « nazi » rêve souvent, en silence, du pouvoir de bannir, de ficher, de faire taire.
L'homme qui aurait tous les moyens de bâtir 1984 est précisément celui qui laisse ses pires détracteurs parler. Demandez-vous qui, dans cette histoire, rêve vraiment du télécran.
