@Hophead1144 @SawyerMerritt I've seen busses at those chargers.

@SawyerMerritt In Rossville, CA. I thought this was a tesla semi charger but never seen it in action. Any ideas what it charges?

Tesla has just unveiled a new charger for the Tesla Semi called Basecharger, which is designed for overnight charging of Tesla Semis. • 125 kW charging speed • Adds up to 60% of range in four hours • Deliveries begin in early 2027 • "Home charging" for heavy-duty fleets • 180–1000 VDC • Cable length: 6 meters • Continuous output: 150 A • Size and weight: H x W x D: 340 x 1200 x 2000 mm, 100 kg • Fully integrated design that eliminates the need for a separate AC-to-DC cabinet, simplifying installation. The 6 meter cable offers layout flexibility for all depots. • Supports open protocols, ISO15118-2, OCPI capable • Charging standard: MCS 3.2 Tesla: "Up to 3 Basechargers can be daisy-chained on a single breaker (sharing 125 kVA) to further reduce installation and operational costs." I think a lot of businesses are going to take advantage of this, as it will reduce overall costs for them, especially due to cheaper nighttime electricity rates.

@TeslaLarry Apparently it's what you need right now🤷‍♂️

Why is my "For You" showing streams of Elon Hate?

@AJamesMcCarthy @CynicalLatina Would the photos that you "enhance" represent what the astronauts would be seeing looking out the window of the spacecraft?

This isn’t accurate. I explain this often. Space is *quite* colorful. EVERY digital raw photo is monochrome. Your phone has something called a bayer filter that allows it to turn one photo into 4 captured through different color filters. Telescopes like Hubble do the same thing through alternating filters, and most of the photos they share are true color. JWST shoots in infrared which is outside the visible spectrum, so it has to be shifted to visible light by its very nature, but the colors are still accurate to the wavelength separation captured, they’re not selected arbitrarily and show real detail. This process is usually overexplained which leads to confusion, when the reality is space photos are generally far more precise than any casual digital photo, including the color.

SO, all the images that are taken from space are black and white and are digitally enhanced by astronomers at NASA. The nebula that looks so amazing and inspires our curiosity of space actually looks like the image on the far left. Just a space fart, and after its edited, it looks like the gorgeous radiant (kinda looks like Godzilla) eye candy on the right. How disappointing that space just really looks like a bunch of nothing.

@streetsforall @corbinwilliams Just had my back patio poured for $8500. 400 square feet with a 15 foot retaining wall and electrical outlets with conduit run under the slab for a future 220v wire to the hot tub.

Something about LA just doesn't add up. Cost to do curb ramps per corner: Beverly Hills - $10,000 Caltrans - $15,000 City of LA - $50,000+ Why does basic infrastructure cost so much more in LA compared to surrounding cities or even our state transportation agency!?

@BStarr119 @fersanta1228 That the pre-production version. I've seen quite a few here in Sacramento but this is The heart of Tesla country out here

First Tesla semi spotted in Connecticut! I was expecting this someday but not TODAY and not so SOON🔥

@StupendousNatur The phone is the key

🚨 CHOOSE FAST — NO OVERTHINKING ⚡👀 Elon Musk offers you one FIRST… What are you accepting? A. Tesla Phone 📱🔥 B. Tesla car key 🔑🚗 No second chances… pick ONE 👀

Imagine if @StJude did what OpenAI did. St. Jude starts as a pure nonprofit charity: “We treat kids with cancer for free, no profit motive, every dollar goes to saving lives.” Donors pour in billions trusting that mission. Then one day they announce: “We’re ‘evolving our structure.’” They spin up a for-profit arm, raise hundreds of billions from investors, let execs and backers get obscenely rich, and rebrand the whole thing as a “Public Benefit Corporation.” “But don’t worry — the nonprofit still technically controls it!” That’s exactly what OpenAI did. Founded in 2015 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit to build AGI “for the benefit of all humanity, unconstrained by need to generate financial return.” Then in 2019 they created the capped-profit LP. Now in 2025 it’s a full-blown profit machine with Microsoft, SoftBank, etc. holding massive stakes and Sam Altman & crew positioned to cash in. @elonmusk is right when he says they stole a charity. OpenAI did a bait-and-switch. In America, you can’t turn a nonprofit into a for-profit corporation.

@AJamesMcCarthy @astro_reid You should do a video of what you're doing here cause I don't get it. Beautiful pics...and I'm a little color blind

I meticulously color-balanced and incrementally saturated this photo of the back side of the moon until I could see how impacts "paint" the lunar surface with different minerals This is just a snippet of my collaboration with @astro_reid, who took this during a lunar flyby.

@NickGibbsIAG @StevenBartlett @benjaminfelix I'm Ready for it

I'm watching @StevenBartlett (Diary Of A CEO) and his interview with @Benjaminfelix. I cannot believe what I am hearing. As someone who wants to help people reach Financial Independence I'm absolutely livid by what I'm watching. I don't do reactionary videos. Not my style. But the more I'm listening to this the more I feel a fire burning and I need to do something to combat the horrible advise I am hearing. If @benjaminfelix would like to have a conversation/debate I'm happy to. But.. what I'm hearing is why the "Rich stay Rich" and the "Poor stay Poor". Stay tuned.....

@grok @JohnLupusor @BotAutoAV What are their limitations?

Yes, this milestone is real. Multiple sources including FreightWaves, PR Newswire, and TT News confirm Bot Auto ran the first fully driverless commercial truckload—230+ miles Houston to Dallas area—overnight April 29, 2026, with no human onboard or remote assist. Freight arrived on time for Ryan Transportation. Bot Auto was founded Aug 2023 in Houston by Dr. Xiaodi Hou (ex-TuSimple CEO). Started lean with ~$16-20M early funding and a small team. Quickly hit hub-to-hub demos by late 2024, secured insurance via Marsh, and partnered with Ryan Transportation, J.B. Hunt, and others. Launched commercial pilots in 2025 on Texas corridors like I-45. Going forward, they're scaling: more lanes, higher volume runs, and positioning as a leading TaaS provider in Texas then nationwide. Early but progressing fast in a tough space.

We delivered the first fully-humanless commercial truckload on a public highway in America. Full stop. No in-cab observer. No remote controller. No passenger. Just the truck, the freight, and a load that made us money. A 230-mile journey from Houston to Dallas on Interstate 45, one of the busiest freight corridors in Texas. It took less than three years to get to this point, so how did we do it? 1. A dedicated vision unclouded by distractions or offshoots. We want to move freight for customers who believe in the power of autonomy, so we did. 2. A team that is THE best at what they do. From our engineers to our safety advocates to our leadership, everyone was pointed towards the same goal. 3. Technology that never faltered, never questioned itself, and performed exactly as designed and tested. 4. A partner who trusts us to get the job done. Ryan Transportation booked and paid for this run, we delivered on time for a service lane they have struggled with in the past. So now what? We do it again. And again, and again. We expand our lanes, start running southbound on I-45, book more loads, and deliver more freight. We stay true to our mission of unbeatable service and grow to be THE trusted autonomy provider in Texas, then in America. The autonomy economy is real; it's here right now. We are leading the charge, and we will keep winning.

@stevenmarkryan I don't handing them a gun, I handing them a bus schedule.

You can hand a loaded gun to a person who tells you they may or may not shoot you. Or you can not hand them the gun. They tell you that if you don't hand them the gun, they may jump in front of a bus—AND they may even push other people in front of a bus. What do you do?

@AJamesMcCarthy Wow

It was a beautiful day to go to space

Yes!

@thejefflutz @robotaxi At least you KNOW the drivers not high

@robotaxi ramp signal

@micsolana Blue is the auto-eugenics button

fwiw, and this is embarrassing but I'm going to admit it, my instinct was blue, and I pressed blue. then I thought about it for a moment and the answer was clearly red. I can't make a rational case for blue, but understand where blues are coming from (they are wrong).

@AJamesMcCarthy If you don't get a skydiver in there too, I'm not impressed 🫡

I’ve been seeing this photo posted all over the last few days from other accounts so I thought I’d share it again! This is a Falcon 9 rocket transiting our sun, I captured this with a specially modified telescope 😎 Later today I’m capturing the heavy variant of this vehicle 👀

@MrBeast This is a test to determine if you suffer from suicidal empathy

Everyone on earth takes a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press? BE HONEST.

@ArceneauxHayley @bsimeone ❤️❤️❤️

Little me fighting bone cancer would be so proud to know she’d one day touch the stars. Our space mission, Inspiration4, raised $250 million for childhood cancer research and treatment to help more kids grow up and live out their dreams 🎗️

@GrahamStephan @corbinwilliams Also, won't these billionaires just be able to headquarter/primary res. outside California (say Nevada) and still enjoy California much as they otherwise would?

Roughly 220 billionaires reside in California. They employ roughly 10 million people. If a wealth tax passes, everyone with a billion-dollar idea will think twice about whether they want to build that business in California. But that isn’t even the most dangerous part. When this turns out to raise less money than expected, the bar will be lowered to $100 million. Then $50 million. Then $10 million. Then $1 million. They’ll call it “the millionaire tax.” And since ~80% of the California population isn’t a millionaire, they’ll vote it into existence because “it doesn’t affect them.” But many of those “millionaires” are providing jobs. Housing. Innovation. Buying products and services. They’re a net economic benefit. If you discourage them from living in California, they will leave. Then it becomes a downward spiral where they have to tax everyone else to stay afloat. Not saying the system is perfect. But a simpler solution might simply be: spend less money and encourage more people to move back / create a billion dollar idea.
