@cybrtrkguy I’m coming up on 5 years of near daily use on mine, I must have lucked out!

I’m on my 3rd Mobile Connector in 4 years. They’re not made for daily use.

@briandstone $160 a month with my old M3LR. We just bought a new Model Y and now it’s $180 a month.

Why in the world is Consumer Reports quoting these insane, unrealistic insurance rates for Teslas? I’ve never heard of anyone paying $400/mo to insure a Model 3.

@MikeWingerii Dislike buttons encourage a hive mind, I’m not a fan. The diversity of opinions is part of what makes X good.

A dislike button on X is going to be extremely interesting, even if many of us end up disliking it. I know of certain accounts I’ll be paying attention to because I don’t think they truly realize how disliked their takes are.

@esjesjesj If that was the case, she would have come to a complete stop more than 200 feet before the collision. The most likely scenario is that she deactivated FSD and didn’t realize it. Tesla really needs to make the deactivation alert more noticeable.

Btw what happens is drivers see that autopilot is about to cause a crash and disengage it to try to stop the crash and it’s too late. Then tesla gets to say that autopilot wasn’t engaged

@MissJilianne If that were the case, the truck would have stopped two hundred feet before the barrier. More likely they didn’t realize they had disengaged FSD and so they didn’t takeover until far too late.

Elon admits the human disengaged Autopilot 4 seconds before the crash. Well yeah…if you’re about to crash due to Autopilot making a critical mistake, you’re going to naturally slam on the brakes which disengages Autopilot\Full Self-Driving.

@SavianoAlan @niccruzpatane With as many partners as they have, that shouldn’t be a problem. It took Tesla a long time because they’re one company and only sold EVs which, to this day, is a small segment kf the market. It was far smaller when they began collecting data.

@niccruzpatane Might want to start collecting billions of miles driven or it’s a moot point.

Jensen Huang in a new interview on NVIDIA’s Self-Driving Partnerships: "We’ve been working on self-driving for about ten years now. Our strategy is not to build a self-driving car. Our strategy is to build a platform, so that everybody can have self-driving cars. We partnered with Mercedes first. We’re now on the road. It is the highest-rated safety autonomous vehicle in the world today."

@jakedell73 Eh, it was a slow slip. The really big issues don’t pop up until around a thousand years in.

Yes. Catholics did get the first 1500 years wrong.

@ryanjaycowan Is your RWD a Premium? The Model Y Premium has a phenomenal sound system!

I actually think ppl might buy the Model Y L just because of how good the sound system is. My jaw was on the floor. And does NOT COMPARE to our RWD Juniper 😭

@TheresaArueyin1 Two things: God often uses physical elements to impart grace, think Baptism and Communion. If something helps us focus on God, I see nothing wrong with it. The Liturgy is made to help us direct our attention to God and remember His promises.

Random question: Why do so many religions use prayer beads? Catholics have the Rosary. Muslims carry Tasbih beads. Hindus and Buddhists use Malas. But when you read the Bible, Jesus never told believers to use objects to reach God. John 4:24 says, “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.” Why do people feel the need for something in their hands when talking to God? What are your thoughts?

@andrewjclare If I had to restart my setup, I would go with the Neo. It’s more than enough for what I do. Currently rocking an M2 Pro MBP. I love the screen but this device is insanely overpowered for me.

air or neo?

@wholemars @MeaganScaringe That sucks, I hope things are better for both of them moving forward. I think RJ is close to exiting the most challenging years of his career, I’m very excited to see what Rivian does over the next few years.

Missed this story from last year. RJ Scaringe and his wife got divorced in July 2025 following 2 years of divorce proceedings, and as a result his ex-wife @MeaganScaringe now has 3.6% voting control over Rivian

@grok @fuzzzypan @nalinrajput23 Don’t do this. The tolerances on MacBooks are super tiny. Any keyboard cover means those oils and crumbs are going to directly touch your screen. At best, your screen will be dirty. At worst, it will get damaged.

Use a slim silicone keyboard cover to shield the keycaps from friction and oils—typing feels almost the same. Clean weekly with compressed air + 70% isopropyl on a microfiber cloth (no liquids directly). For heavy use, plug in an external keyboard. That stops the letters from vanishing fast.

How can I stop my MacBook keyboard from ending up like this?

@SawyerMerritt @Tesla I just picked up a 2026 RWD Premium for my wife. She previously had a 2022 M3LR and I have a 2021 MYP. It’s shocking how much better the new Model Ys are. The old ones were already fantastic, I didn’t realize they could improve so much.

The first customer Model Y deliveries began 6 years ago today. Since then, @Tesla has sold an estimated ~5 million of them, generating over $200 billion in revenue. That's one Model Y sold every 38 seconds, on average. In 2023, Model Y became the #1 bestselling car in the world, gas or EV, just 3 years after it launched.

@WmWeedon Do you have an associate pastor? This may be the time to double down on training the next generation of the clergy. I worry for the liturgy, I love to see pastors who have a deep admiration for it.

I know I’m old when… the voice dies after the second sermon and Bible Class and the second communion liturgy is a train wreck. Grr. I used to be able to do this, no problema. Not anymore.

@techiedani @Tesla I feel like they’ve forgotten about Tesla theater and Tesla arcade.

When is Apple TV support coming to @Tesla? What other channels would you like to see here?

@Shibu_Thobs Bryan Wolfmueller @bwolfmueller. He does a wonderful job keeping true to biblical theology while also remaining gracious to those caught in heterodoxy.

Please recommend good preachers that I can watch on YouTube.

@briandstone Actually it’s the Contacts app. An entirely separate app for something that is already included in the Phone app.

Ironically, the Phone app on the iPhone is the least function, worst app on the entire iPhone.

@DylanMcD8 That’s why I bought a Vision Pro as an accessory for my Neo. The screen can be as big as I’d like! /s

So far my only real complaints for MacBook Neo are: - No MagSafe is disappointing, but partly because I already have a lot of MagSafe cables - The screen is pretty small, can be hard to see a lot at once Of course, I make these complains as a tech enthusiast who uses my Mac for everything. These are fine tradeoffs for the target market. Though I do hope they add a 14" or 15" option at some point!

@SnazzyLabs I like the new rear but the front is terrible. Lightbars are ugly and make everything look cheap

The Tesla Model Y is a fantastic car. Its biggest issue is that its refresh is ugly and makes it look like a generic Chinese car.

@BenBajarin @DylanMcD8 How does the trackpad feel? That’s my biggest hang up.

But MacBook Neo only has 8gb of RAM! Well, I ran Geekbench, played a movie, worked in a handful of apps and it didn't blink, still smooth, no latency in app usage or app switching. Here is how many windows were open. 8GB of RAM is not a problem.
