The natural drift of the Overton Window is to the right, which means a bias in favor of right-wing policies. We need a strong left to pull the window back to the center. Therefore, if you favor centrist policies you should support the left.

Tesla registered just 4,186 Cybertrucks in the first quarter of 2026, down from 7,140 in the first quarter of 2025. Sad that the incredible technology in this vehicle is not in the hands of more people. Overall Tesla vehicle registrations in Q1 were down from 130,389 last year to 105,436 this year.

@liorsela Twice tonight 14.3.3 parked in a parking lot by straddling the line and taking 2 spaces.

📣 FSD v14.3.3 users, what’s the biggest improvement you’ve noticed in the latest updates? I’m still on 14.2.2.5 (with the spring update), and it already feels much smoother while driving, with better traffic flow and fewer unnecessary interventions compared to earlier versions (other than for changing parking spots or navigation). Those of you who already have 14.3.3, how does it feel? Is it noticeably better than 14.2.2.5? Any areas Tesla still needs to improve?

My local target now has a bunch of these Electrify America chargers. As nice as this is I wonder why they didn’t go with Tesla destination chargers because these are so bulky and just an eye sore to look at.

A genuine question to Tesla FSD subscribers: Which driving mode do you actually use most often? For me, it's 90% Hurry mode, and I'm really curious what other people prefer or experience with the different modes. • Sloth: Very conservative, sticks to or below the speed limit, few lane changes. • Chill: Relaxed pace, usually a bit over the limit, calm and smooth. • Standard: Balanced, follows traffic flow nicely. • Hurry: More assertive, quicker passes, higher speeds. • Mad Max: Aggressive, pushes the limits, frequent and fast maneuvers. Share why your preferred mode and why…. 👇🏼

Richard Childress Racing has elected to suspend use of the No. 8 and will run the No. 33 at Charlotte Motor Speedway and beyond. Kyle Busch was instrumental in the design of RCR’s stylized No. 8 and it has become synonymous with Kyle and an important symbol for his fans and the NASCAR industry. No one can carry it forward to the level that he did. The No. 8 is reserved and ready for Brexton Busch when he is ready to go NASCAR racing.

The Alabama football white helmet debate is making the rounds again. Alabama wore white helmets on occasion through 1971 under Coach Bryant. Ray Perkins brought them back for selected games in 1983 and 1984. I want y’all to weigh in. Would you like to see Alabama wear white helmets again?

@mikepat711 Our parking deck at work has reserved spaces and my MYP always wants to park in one or a handicapped spot.

To those talking about the new “streak” stat and feeling concern about gaming FSD: This will not end up being a big deal, and almost nobody will care about it after a few days. Why? Parking. You’re still going to disengage very frequently for parking. It’s just the way it is for now. Tesla really can’t solve this today for everyone, because there really isn’t anything to solve. Parking is subjective, and people have their own preference for where they like to park. For example, I prefer parking close to the pin at my apartment, but at the grocery store, I enter from the back of the lot, and FSD needlessly goes to the pin before searching for parking. On 14.3.2, there was no “blue P” in my apartment lot, so FSD parked perfectly because I just saved a pin-drop for home where I wanted it to park. With V14.3.3, my apartment lot now has a blue P, so FSD immediately parks in the first available spot, which I’d love for it to do at the grocery store, but not at home. How could Tesla possibly train this? They can’t. FSD isn’t doing anything wrong in either case, it just can’t predict my preference without me being able to talk to it. We are going to need tools for parking commands, either by talking to Grok or having an app to fill with preset conditions at our favorite places. That is what it will take. For now, you aren’t going to get a 10,000 mile streak without driving yourself insane. So there’s really no point in trying unless you’re a madman like @DavidMoss The good news is that this sort of thing doesn’t really matter for autonomy, but for private owners, we aren’t going to want to get rid of the steering wheel until we can give specific parking commands.

A question for all Tesla owners: Full screen visualization or split screen? Full screen gives that immersive, futuristic and clean vibe, but split screen keeps the map handy with more information visible. What’s your go-to setting? Full screen 🖥️ or Split screen 🗺️

@aakashgupta The biggest issue is not the charge port location it’s the absolutely horrible ergonomics. I’ve tried numerous times to use mine and I’d rather use a $5 generic mouse.

Let me explain exactly why Apple ships the Magic Mouse charging port on the bottom, because no one seems to get it. This is not an oversight. Apple has shipped this exact design since 2015. They updated the mouse in October 2024 to USB-C and kept the port on the bottom anyway. They actively block the mouse from working when it receives power, which kills every third-party case that tries to move the port to the side. Apple watcher John Gruber has said Apple designers tried front-port versions and rejected all of them because every one looked worse. Ten years of memes. A decade of competitor mockery. An entire cottage industry of accessory makers trying to fix this. Apple held the line on every single attempt. The reason is the entire Apple thesis. Every other hardware company asks "is it usable?" Apple asks "is anything visible that I wouldn't put on a museum shelf?" When usability and visibility collide, they hide the usability. iMac power button on the back since 1998. Headphone jack deleted in 2016. Every port stripped from the MacBook Pro for five years before they admitted defeat. Touch Bar replaced function keys for a cleaner look and died after five years. The Magic Mouse is the purest version of the discipline. The cost is a few minutes of charging downtime every couple of months. The benefit is the mouse looks beautiful 100% of the time it is in your hand. Apple ran that trade in 2015 and has refused every chance to renegotiate it. Run the math on what this aesthetic discipline buys them. Apple sells a $99 mouse that has to be flipped on its back to charge. Logitech sells better mice for $40 with the port in the right place. Apple is worth $4.3 trillion. Logitech is worth $15 billion. A 280x gap on the same category of product. The trade was never even close.
