@DuskNixx @jchybow @OverlyTrev But if they say it isn't there a chance they can sell you a $300 tire. I concur, that is likely patchable, there's a good inch of bonding area till the sidewalk bend. Although I also lack a tireoligy masters certification, I'd have used a $5 plug kit.

Update and it’s not great. Discount tire is closed on Sunday so went to a local Firestone. They said they could not patch it and refused to patch it. They said it was too close to the wall of the tire. Really had no choice but to get a new tire, they didn’t have the OEM tires in stock so I’ll have a mismatched one which sucks, I hate that. They gave me a little bit of a discount but had to spend $300 on a tire wasn’t on my agenda for this trip. It is what it is.

Just woke up and see a lot of comments telling me to “just plug it yourself it’s not difficult”. Thanks for the suggestions but this is the scenario 👇 1. I don’t even have a tire plug kit with me. 2. Iv never plugged a tire. 3. Im not going to try to mess with that while we have a 10 hour+ roadtrip home. 4. Discount tire can do it for free or a local Firestone shop that is a few miles down the road can do it for $35 professionally. So no I’m not going to just do it myself. Is it something I might learn to do in the future? Yeah sure but on a Sunday at 7am when you’re trying to get home? No. I filled the tire up last night and the Good news is it’s a very slow leak. The front right tire is one with the nail.

@JoeTegtmeyer @OverlyTrev Having the open clearance makes the task so much easier than trying to work inside a constrained wheel well, or bumping up against a mud flap. Don't assume something that seems obvious is a given for someone else. Failure to articulate nuance is the fault of the teacher.

@JoeTegtmeyer @OverlyTrev Pro tip: spend the extra time to inch forward/backwards so to get the puncture in a good spot before removing the nail/screw. I like to have it facing directly backwards for the rear, for the front you can also turn the wheels. You want a good amount of open space for the tool.

@anytimeFXmetal Weird, I've never towed less than 600 miles round trip and never needed to drop the trailer to charge. Oh, I guess one time we took an overnight break at home on a return leg and so I dropped it curbside overnight. Here's one such trip: x.com/i/status/18130…

@D0li0 @ZPEdisclosure If only the technology existed to actually harness free fusion energy so we could all live independently from the utility power grid… there must be some way of doing it. That’s what Elon should’ve been working on this whole time! 🤬

If Elon actually cared about energy he'd be funding fusion not selling solar panels and batteries. The real money is in making the grid obsolete, not selling products that depend on it.

@kchau Pretty sure anyone trying to give the cybertruck a door ding would do more damage to their own car.

I love Cybertruck. Totally just banged the door into the cart return. Dented the pipes on the cart return.

My client this week wasn’t excited about the Cybertruck before we started this week’s tour. She doesn’t like Elon, and probably still doesn’t. By Friday though, she wanted me to take a photo of her on the truck photographing a grizzly bear. The truck slowly won her over after riding along all week!

@ICannot_Enough @ZPEdisclosure I mean, how are powerwalls, megapacks, and autobidder going to make the grid obsolete? Grid forming tech is just enabling an antiquated tangle of wires almost noone uses anyway... Sheesh! ;)

What if there were a huge fusion reactor in the sky that ran all the time, generating and radiating unfathomable amounts of light and heat energy, and there was never any need to buy more fuel to keep it running or perform maintenance on it- so it was truly free- all you had to do was build some photovoltaic cells to convert its energy into usable power that could be stored in batteries? What then??

More body positions than atoms in the universe? "The robot’s made up of ~40 motors. Every motor can spin 360 degrees, all the way around. So mathematically, how many states it could be in? Body positions, is 360 to the power of 40." "The difficulty here is, how do you control it? You can’t write code to make this work."

BREAKING: First-Ever Full Tour of Figure's Humanoid HQ CEO Brett Adcock Exclusive look through every department on their San Jose campus: BotQ Factory, Testing, Design, Demos & more. Brett walks us through how Figure is built: - System integration lab: where robots are stress-tested with software faults & physical pushes - Helix AI: team floor where the controls & neural network engineers train the vision-language-action model that runs onboard every Figure robot - Reinforcement learning & stability testing: where Figure demos the Vulcan project — surviving a lost knee mid-task - Home: environment where Figure 03 autonomously tidies a living room using their Helix neural network (no teleoperation) - BotQ: manufacturing facility where heads, batteries, and limbs come together on the assembly line, including the custom-built battery line & end-of-line burn-in bays - Industrial design studio: (opened publicly for the first time) housing every generation of Figure robot ever built, including: Figure 01 with its Frankenstein forearms, Figure 02, & the sleek Figure 03 that recently appeared at the White House, plus the evolution of Figure's hands & feet Brett shares why he believes humanoid robots may achieve AGI before any other form factor, why Figure pivoted entirely from hand-coded controls to neural networks, & teases that Figure 04 will be their "iPhone 1 moment." This was so much fun!

@TeslaTravelstx Maybe you could do a test run. Just head off on the trip for a half hour and see if it's adjusted to the speed by then and turn around. I'm not sure how quickly it will recalculate the route, but maybe you'll learn and share. I've done numerous 2k mile trips, I just go.

Day 17 of owning a @cybertruck and I’m….confused I am planing a trip from Houston Tx to Conway Mo in May and I’ve been mapping the trip out in the app so I know time and charging stops. It’s been telling me about 15hr 41min with 6 charging stops. Today I put it into the trucks nav and it showed the trip being 13hr 35min and 4 charging stops. How can they be so different and which do I go by to plan? They both have the same start/end point and the same start/end SOC. To check I did the same for a trip to Starbase and I get the same issue. Tell me what you think and your real world experiences!

@TeslaTravelstx The truck map looks like it's got 2½ hour legs, which is probably pushing it. It's probably based on your current <500Wh/mi efficiency? You may be pushing ~800+Wh/mi if your hauling a$$ at 80+mph. Generally it's best to drive faster, charge rate is faster than ground speed.

@TeslaTravelstx When in the truck, after it does it's route, I regularly tap the chargers icon, make sure it's on the fast(⚡⚡⚡) options only, and see if there are plenty of other optional stops that it hasn't chosen. Worst case, if there are none, you can slow down to increase range.

@ogre_codes @TeslaTravelstx @cybertruck Ya, if your normal daily is slower roads & more efficient then the truck nav will recalibrate itself during the first high freeway speed lower efficiency leg of the trip and then be more accurate there after. It sounds like the app is assuming the lesser efficiency high speeds?

@TeslaTravelstx @cybertruck The truck nav computer is pretty spot on most of the time. It bases estimates on an average of recent driving efficiency. The app I'm not as sure about.

Just got a new version of FSD V14.3.2. Same release notes. Wonder if Tesla made changes to the FSD disengagement popup screen.

Okay here’s my first attempt at a solution to contain the asshole ducks who seemingly don’t realize they can fly. What do you think? Will it work? Guess we will find out at 6:30am tomorrow when they make their daily migration to the neighbors garden. 🤣🤦‍♂️
Ælectric Cybersolarfarmer@rhensing

Wife just had an emergency meeting with a neighbor. BLUF these little assholes leave the farm every morning and go rooting through his flower beds. My wife was like “we need to fix the gate to prevent the ducks from going to his house” and I was like “excuse me Whut?” And she goes “watch the gate camera from this morning.” lil fuckers. 🤣🤦‍♂️
