@TeslaLarry I saw my first Waymo ever on Wed. coming home from an appt at Vanderbilt. I was going the right one way down a small, one-lane road, and coming up the wrong way was a Waymo. No driver, so my angry glance did nothing. Worse: it didn't slow down. I pulled into a yard to miss it!

This is the same guy who told us - 5 years ago - that warranty costs would bankrupt Tesla.

From zero to 25 robotaxis is "vertical" according to the most ardent Musk fluffers. Meanwhile, Waymo is doing 500,000 paid driverless miles per week, or 2x its rate just 12 months ago, in 11 cities (not just Texas, where old AV laws are in effect till May 28th). $TSLA $GOOG

@Ellieinspace Hmmm... I'll be 67 in a couple years. Might be a fun toy. (And, the 6-7 fad will probably be well over by then!)

The moment during the livestream on @Ellieinspace when I saw the @NASAArtemis II Astronauts looking at the images the had just taken and I knew they were going to be historic!
The first officially released images do not disappoint! How amazingly impressive, majestic and humbling to see our planet and its moon in this way! Historic for sure!

@Ellieinspace Thank you, Ellie! Looking forward to seeing it!

Don't miss the lunar flyby! I will be streaming at 12pm CT my time tomorrow!

@TeslaBoomerMama I'm thankful and glad he's okay and feeling up to eating. What did y'all have? (When I'm struggling with respiratory issues, I don't usually feel like eating.) Not sure what the weather is like there now (probably very beautiful), but here it's early spring, and chicken parmesan!

Pneumonia it is, we caught it.
Thank you so much for your prayers.
Now onto what we love most: eat

Thank you all. Still waiting for XRays but Doc listening to his lungs says "no water" 🙏 Lots of blood draws, results in an hour

We could do with some prayers, in the ER with TBP.
Thank you.

@TeslaBoomerMama Maybe she's hoping for a triple word score!

@TeslaBoomerMama Oh, wow! Well... I hope y'all have a wonderful evening! Have fun! Be safe! Take care!

@TeslaBoomerMama @TeslaLarry @ldzi3lak I think I'd probably have said "I would like a premium." I don't need it. I'm not selling my shares. If SpaceX wants to subsume Tesla, I'm not opposed to that. And, if they want to give me extra, I'm okay with that. I just don't want to be bought out for a pittance.

@TeslaLarry @ldzi3lak Not sure I'd call it "funny"

@herbertong Well, I'm looking forward to seeing what they're going to reveal. As for "way cooler"... that's always nice, but I drove a minivan for 35 years because it's practical, not because it was cool. (Although, you know what? Practical IS cool!)
English
🚨 Elon Musk hints at a new Tesla vehicle that’s “way cooler than a minivan.”
What do you think? 👀 $TSLA
Elon Musk@elonmusk
@LeahLibresco Something way cooler than a minivan is coming

@TeslaBoomerMama @cyberbulls @herbertong @thejefflutz @TeslaLarry @CernBasher I'm just glad y'all are okay. Take your time; rest, recharge, and we'll all be delighted to see you when you come back!
English
my apologies for skipping this show, I was hit with extreme fatigue since we are back.
Thank you for understanding, and thank you to my @cyberbulls brothers for being the best.

@DillonLoomis @SawyerMerritt I would gladly let a Cybercab cart me around. And, I could probably swing $30k. Bring it on!
English
@SawyerMerritt yeah this is b-i-g
for elon to feel comfortable shipping cybercabs to customers this year is one of the most bullish things weve heard in awhile. keeping them in house on the network is one thing...this is something different entirely 🚀
English
Elon Musk just confirmed that Tesla will deliver a Cybercab to a customer for $30,000 or less by the end of 2026 😎
Sawyer Merritt@SawyerMerritt
Marques Brownlee in October 2024 on the Cybercab being delivered before 2027 for $30,000: "There's no way they're actually going to be able to do that. If they do, I will shave my head on camera. I'm that confident they won't do it." Today, Tesla announced that the first production Cybercab has rolled off the manufacturing line. Now, the company needs to deliver on the $30k price. There's 10 months left in 2026 :)
English
@TeslaBoomerMama In the SpaceX acquiring Tesla scenario, do we get to keep our stake in the company, but as shareholders of SpaceX, or does SpaceX give us money for our shares, and we own nothing but a chunk of cash and a large, taxable event? I'm in Tesla for the mission and the growth.

Figure uses a foot to autonomously lift the dishwasher door - very humanlike!

Introducing Helix 02 It's our most powerful model to date - it's using the whole body to do dishes end-to-end and it's fully autonomous
English
@DillonLoomis Yeah... the algorithms. I never look at the 'For You' tab. I only look at 'Following. It's not that I don't care. I get enough news from everywhere else. But, I am more interested in what y'all have to say about stuff.
English
My problem with my "For you" tab is that it way too quickly becomes one subject. Just because I engage for a day or two with a topic does not mean I've lost all interest in everything else. Right now the ONLY thing I'm being shown is the debacle in Minnesota. Every single post.
English
@FutureAZA I'm absolutely interested! Looking forward to the full review. If you will, I understand it's the same width as the regular Y, but with the added length and different seats, is there more room by the driver's side left foot? (Does the wheel well protrude into the foot space?) Thx
English
@Ellieinspace Oh, Wow! Congratulations! Y'all are going do great! Looking forward to future mission updates!
