@JaxonSmithWX @JoshJohnsWx @TxStormChasers Dissipated very quickly

@JoshJohnsWx @TxStormChasers This sucker is gonna be huge

(4:54pm) Dry line sitting right over the Metroplex. Green values are dew points, lower numbers are dry air. There’s lots of fuel along and ahead of the line and clouds are attempting to break a weak cap. Next two hours will be telling. If a storm pops, will build quickly. #TXwx

@ScottPuglisi @mhp_guy There’s a pretty big garbage dump north of 121 in Lewisville. They’re working on it

@mhp_guy Would it kill the Metroplex to build a fake mountain or something to at least add to the skyline instead of another 1990’s generic building?

This is the best real estate in the world. 1:1:1 Chipotle to Chick-Fil-A to Crumbl ratio. More HOAs per capita than anywhere on Earth. Only 3.5% property taxes. Only 45 minutes to downtown Dallas. Every house has a privacy fence. Current entry level price: $1.2 million

@bayrakmedya All have a probability of being stopped except for C, assuming we are disregarding the slosh phenomenon. So based solely on probability, C is the most likely to be correct though the answer itself is unknowable

Üniversitede fizik öğretmeninin öğrencilere sorduğu tek final sorusu: Sizce hangi kamyon en yüksek hızla ilerliyor?

@Pir8teAngel @IMAO_ A photon is absorbed and emitted in the very same instant, regardless of distance

@IMAO_ Time dilation. The closer you get to the speed of light the less time it takes to get there, relative to your experienced time. It’s still more than 11 years experienced on Earth before he’d get back.

Near the end of Project Hail Mary, I think the computer said it would take four years to get home but I thought he was over eleven light-years away. Did I miss something? Is that some relativity thing?

@AdmiralQuality @DJSnM @joerogan @triggernometry Yes same. Nothing about the man just the guests for the most part. Hard science vs open skepticism is usually a fun match. He’s done a few but Scott has the perfect charisma for a good episode

@Fnaftaft @DJSnM @joerogan I don't hate Rogan but, yes, he rarely has guests I'm interested in. (Reminds me, I still have to watch the @Triggernometry guys' last one.) Usually it's fellow pugilists and what I like to call ostensible comedians.

Ok what do I do in Austin for the next few hours? There all these events that need passes or invites so I’m not getting to those, just going to wander and look at stuff

@AdmiralQuality @DJSnM @joerogan As someone who doesn’t enjoy his podcast much, I would watch this one 😳

@DJSnM Maybe you can get a last minute booking on @JoeRogan?

@thweetnic @CollinRugg What exactly is the breakthrough? We have jets, modern manufacturing, and engines. I don’t see a breakthrough; I see someone trying to get into the news If you make ten million units, cost comes down to this, sure. But that’s also not going to happen

@Fnaftaft @CollinRugg Every breakthrough sounds like a lie at first. Until it isn’t

Shawn Ryan astounded after 22-year-old CEO Ethan Thornton of Mach Industries, a defense tech startup, tells him he will give him a "miniature fighter jet." The Viper is a 6.5-foot vertical takeoff "miniature fighter jet" that can take off and land if needed. It reportedly costs under $100,000 per unit, can reach speeds of 600 mph, and has a range of several hundred miles. Insane. Video: @ShawnRyan762

@thweetnic @CollinRugg We used to just call them lies

@CollinRugg $100k for something that flies 600 mph? That sounds either revolutionary or terrifying

@NobodymrRobert @JasonHarmon2 Tbh I thought this was going to involve gasoline

@JasonHarmon2 Interesting.

Is it a game changer.

@IvankaTrump @POTUS @realDonaldTrump @WhiteHouse Can’t believe Monica fit through there

@ggalletti1 @wholemars @Tesla @Tesla_AI @elonmusk I was stopped at a red this weekend and it tried to run straight into traffic before the light changed. Not there yet.

FSD is solved. @Tesla @Tesla_AI @elonmusk

@AmyShiraTeitel Look I just don’t want to fold clothes anymore. If it means I can’t sleep at night, fair trade

Uncanny Chasm = BIG NOPE - PAO youtu.be/9p-5FuIwCOc?si…

@HambrechtJason @benjamincowen It’s actually the same exact chance of heads and tails the fourth time

@benjamincowen I can flip tails on a coin three times. The forth time? Likely heads.

Historically, the #BTC market cycle top is in when or just before the 200W SMA crosses the prior ATH. Something to keep in mind...

@Teslamojo @imdavidbryan @KyleCherrick

@imdavidbryan @KyleCherrick So you're all complaints and no solutions. Besides being a dick on the internet, what else have you done to reduce your reliance on burning shit for energy?

LOL - 3.5GW solar plant built for $0.61/watt all-in. Cost per kWh probably sub 2 cents per kWh, add batteries, maybe 3-4 cents. Only other power that comes close is really big wind. No concrete foundations, no grading. Just inert steel driven into the ground. As we use to say, it’s a placeholder for future development with all minimal footprint. #SolarIsEatingTheWorld

@Erdayastronaut Flappy

Still absolutely speechless. That was one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen in my entire life! Huge congrats to the teams @spaxex for getting SO MUCH DATA!!! 🙌 rest for us here and then review footage tonight!

Forward flap is melting through

@bradsferguson @alex_avoigt L1 Lagrange point magnetic field would probably be the answer. Redirecting solar winds actually requires surprisingly little energy (1-2 Tesla/170-340kW) and the planet would cease losing its atmo. Not even a megawatt of power

@alex_avoigt terraforming will take much longer. probably have to live in caves.

Totally get that Mars is the first "backup" plan, but it doesn't look like a fun place to me...?🤷🏻‍♂️

@DJSnM Nosewheel fairing but mains retract? I'm confused. Looks a bit like a Glasair

I guess I own part of this plane now.

@technoking_420 @TSLAFanMtl Explain why the structural pack MY with castings is heavier than its stamped counterpart?

@TSLAFanMtl Keep in mind 4680 is a structural pack. So in reality it’s actually much lighter and in the lead compare with other cells. Other batteries are dead weight.

Just 3 years ago, Tesla detailed their plans for a new battery design that would feature a number of innovations, including innovative manufacturing methods. Not only did they design the cell, but also all of the machinery to build the cell, the battery pack etc. - all from scratch. There are only a handful of companies that build batteries at this scale globally. In just 3 years, Tesla already has a battery pack in mass production and in a vehicle that has better pack-lvl energy density than Panasonic’s 2170 cell packs. In only the 4680 cell’s 2nd iteration and before many other cost and energy improvements. Incredible accomplishment. Anyone who claims 4680 a failure bc Tesla is behind its own ridiculous benchmark that *it set for itself* is not serious and needs to broaden their perspective.

@DJSnM You will be held to the highest level of internet accountability- now please continue 😂

Before you start quoting me on Starship failure modes, just remember I’m not a rocket scientist, I just play one on the internet.
