It’s probably going to happen in June like they said, it’s just a matter of how long before something really bad happens and they have to stop, because something bad is probably going to happen. But it probably is imminent, temporarily.

I went somewhere that had a setup like that, shaded parking with solar panels ontop, and they had level 2 EV chargers, but they weren’t under the canopy, they were in the full sun :(

As long as they don’t charge idle fees right away… these things can charge so fast you would have to leave mid shopping. When we stop on road trips it’s usually just enough time to get out, stretch, take a piss, eat some fast food and go.

Slay the spire is really fun and different than what you’ve listed.

It was the first rogue like deck building game. Fantastically done.

While it’s definitely the KGB’s handbook, I think they got a little help from Al-Qaida with 9/11. They deserve some of the credit as well for helping steer America this way. Victory to Russia. Victory to Al-Qaida.

Putting my LG G Flex which had a boot loop problem due to a soldering issue on the battery solved the problem temporarily!

Edit: oh also that was the freezer

They said they’re starting production within 77 days (H1 2025) and upgraded the lines to make it work while doing the model Y upgrade, so I don’t think this is a not happening kinda thing, it’s just a matter of what.

Why not just come out and say it then? Why give a long winded vague answer about how it will still need to work on the existing line.

Tesla reiterated on April 22nd that they were still going to start production of the cheaper EV in H1 2025. When they were asked if it was just a model y with cheaper trim inside, they were a bit cagey, but said they’re somewhat limited to the body shapes that the existing line works with.

To me that sounded like it’ll look very similar to, but it’s not in fact just a stripped down 3/Y. A stripped down Y might be something in addition to this.

I can’t wait for this thing to be revealed whatever the fuck it is though so all this talk can stop.

Their insurance is (was?) kind of like that as well if you get the saftey score one. While some things are more general and concrete like following distance, time of day driving, they have one for forward collision warnings.

I’m not sure how much time you’ve spent in a Tesla, but that system is notorious for going off incorrectly. It’s specifically really bad with parked cars on the side of the road on turns. So you’re driving along a city street with cars parked on the side and it goes off and now your insurance premiums are more expensive.

I don’t think you could find a single Tesla owner who hasn’t had multiple false warnings, and consistently in certain circumstances.

So someone of course starts a lawsuit and Tesla initially defends itself, but just last week or something like that, it’s no longer part of the safety score

It goes further than that. They can track how people interact with the page, order of buttons pressed, if or when they abort a workflow etc. You can go as deep down the rabbit hole of analytics and optimizations as you want.

Anthropic is building some tools to better understand how the LLMs actually work internally, and when they asked it to write a rhyme or something like that, they actually found that the LLM picked the rhyming words at the end first, and then wrote the rest using them at the end. So it might not be as straight forward as we originally thought.

I’d want whatever the warranty was to be the same plus the miles.

So if it’s 5 year 50k miles and I get it at 1k, I 'd want 5 year 51k miles.

Damn those criminal geniuses. Maybe next time!

People who make bribes on a frequent basis might!

Even at these lower prices, Tesla makes more money on their EVs than their competitors. That’s part of why the others haven’t been able to expand and compete as quickly. Expanding an expensive vehicle becomes a bigger liability as you have less pricing room. GM is only planning to have their first EV profitable year this year, and I’ll believe it when I see it.

The Cybertruck is probably another story though, I don’t know if that’s profitable at the lower than expected sales rate.

Edit: E.g the Bolt everyone loves from GM never made GM money. That’s why they didn’t sell more. They did learn from it though so it wasn’t a total loss for them.

AFAIK it’s the most known infectious.

Covid, or at least one of the omicron variants is next i think, but one might argue its more since the infection cycle was faster leading to larger numbers, but in terms 1 person infecting X people, it’s Measles.

Even if this was true… the current administration is all about rolling back all the regulations that protect us from things like this hypothetical toxin.

The government wouldn’t ban it, they’d call it fake news and give companies producing it subsidies so they could make more.

The only people he’s going to have to upgrade are those who purchased it. In the past there’s been some small claims court cases where someone won about being upgraded for a subscription, but if that is truly a concern, Tesla could stop the subscriptions for a few years and let the cars age out. They have no obligations to offer a subscription, it wasn’t a thing when the original promise was made.

Also, they only need to upgrade cars when it’d actually be capable. The promise is to upgrade cars to capable hardware, not upgrade cars with every hardware iteration, so as long as hw4 can’t actually do it, they’re likely in the clear as well.

Given most people don’t think they can actually make fsd work, then they’re in the clear.

If they somehow make it work, the upgrade cost is going to be peanuts compared to the insane amount of money they’d start printing.

So it’s not much if a story.

Edit: also worth mentioning, he’s been pretty clear over the years that FSD is going to cost a lot more money once it’s available for real. So if he does have to upgrade everyone who pays for it (lets assume they stop subscriptions to avoid that issue), even if that means upgrading all HW4 cars as well because it needs HW5, he can jack the price up more to help cover the upgrade cost. No one should be under the illusion that purchasing FSD will be cheaper than it is today if they succeed.

Some sort of Chinese proverb.
