@LamarMK Consider that most wealthy people who can actually afford a real chauffeur with ease, don’t bother. No one is going to pay $300 a month for unsupervised, at least not anyone in large numbers. People already are not paying the subscription fee in any significant numbers.

Owning FSD outright on your Tesla is going to make so much more sense once FSD Unsupervised is released. Subscriptions could then rise from $99 to $299 monthly.

@Vivek4real_ Sure, it has no inherent value, and is therefore subject to the slightest of winds.

CAN ANYONE PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME, IN SIMPLE WORDS, WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH BITCOIN??

@WashingtonSRC @doll_elizabeth We are having solar installed. Why pay a utility when you can spend that same money building your own production capability?

Aniara (2018) is one of the most underrated sci-fi films of the century. What begins as a hopeful journey to Mars becomes a existential drift through space. Based on a 1956 Swedish poem, it turns the vastness of the cosmos into a mirror for human despair.

@JeebsTX @cybertruck $540k buys you a starter home in the PNW.

@cybertruck Love it 🥰 Better 0-60: 2.6s Much better price: $99,990 $540,010 leftover to buy a Mansion with AC cooled Garage in Texas. 📐❄️ Read my pinned tweet people, I don’t have single Cybertruck referral. lol

Hey Luce

Brother, I’d shit myself if I did this on IRACING. Imagine winning like this in the greatest race on the planet. I think the electricity in my blood would send me to another dimension

@KobeissiLetter @grok are nitrates higher in poorer countries? If so, would people in lower socioeconomic brackets in the United States have high birth rates than those in high brackets?

What is happening here? The US birthrate is now down -30% since pre-2008 levels while financial wealth is at record highs. Why? Because only asset owners are able to afford this economy. As shown in our below analysis, this crisis accelerated in both 2008 and 2020. And, with every recession and every round of inflationary economic stimulus, the crisis simply accelerates even further. Now, we are seeing the biggest divergence between the S&P 500 and the US birth rate in history. The result? Tons of young Americans simply cannot afford to have kids in another sign of the "K-Shaped" economy. The US is facing a massive demographic crisis.

@future42org Our PSE bill last month was $600+. We have an appointment with a solar company tomorrow morning. Enough is enough. The electric utility can never have a monopoly on what can be produced at home.

“Plopping down a thousand dollars a month for your electric bill is just nuts,” Canadian owned Puget Sound Energy has raised utility prices to the moon in Pierce County to come into compliance with Washington's failing Climate Commitment Act. Now they want an additional double digit increase next year as well. Good thing the CCA is going towards such important progressive community groups such as [checks notes] Mother Africa to [squints] promote climate justice.

@TimurNegru @derek_j_scv $40M-$50m in the Seattle area. 160km to Romenis less than a 2 hour drive.

Someone is selling an entire hill in Tuscany. 45 hectares, for €1.3M ($1.5M). That's 111 acres of southern Tuscan countryside with a 500m² stone farmhouse on top, 9 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a pool, and an outdoor wood-burning oven. The estate sits at 400m altitude on a privately owned hill near Saturnia, 8 km from the famous thermal baths and 50 km from the Tyrrhenian Sea. The farmhouse was built in the early 1800s by the Piccolomini Counts as the steward's residence for what was once a much larger estate. The current 45 hectares break down as 37 ha of woodland, 7 ha of arable land, and 1 ha of olive grove with 50 trees. It borders a nature park and the Albenga River. What makes the price interesting is the land. 45 hectares fully consolidated and bordering a protected park is rare at this level in Tuscany. Most farmhouses in this price range come with 1-3 hectares of land. Here you're buying the hill itself. The trade-off is access. You're 160 km from Rome airport and 200 km from Pisa, so this isn't a fly-in-for-the-weekend kind of place. Then again, if you're buying a hill in Tuscany, being hard to reach is probably the point. How much would something like this cost where you live?

@SawyerMerritt No FSD is a non-starter

Mercedes has just officially unveiled the production version of its all-electric AMG GT 4-Door Coupe. • Range: ~315 miles (EPA) • 1,153 hp • 0-60 mph: 2.0s • Peak charging speed: 600kW • 106 kWh battery • 10-80% state of charge as low as 11 mins.

@thetatemotive Tell Elon again how rich you are, lol.

🚨NEW: Andrew Tate pulls up in a purple Cybertruck and sends a message directly to Elon Musk. 😂💜 "I made the Cybertruck look better. Free marketing for Tesla. All I want in return is a gazillion dollars." "I'm the king of designing Teslas."

@GabLad92 @tesla_na Mine is 1/2 the cost of my gas car.

@tesla_na Please add insurance policy price... its about 2-3 times higher than a regular car.

Home charging + FSD Supervised + almost no maintenance = exceptional bang for buck for less $$$ than your gas car Gas car at 25 mpg & $4.53/gal nationwide: $210/mo Model 3 RWD at 18¢/kWh & FSD Supervised: $149/mo

@Uprighttrading @tesla_na @TeslaCharging The cool thing about electricity is that you can produce it at home through solar, freeing you from utility increases.

@tesla_na @TeslaCharging Any plans on reducing SC cost? Been consistently increasing. “Low Price” is now $.34/kWh. Not long ago off peak/low price times was like $.17-$.20/kWh

@GeniusGuyMan @tesla_na The insurance on my 2026 Model Y Performance is $135/month, for comprehensive. Half what I was paying for my crappy 2023 Nissan Pathfinder Platinum.

@tesla_na Insurance cost negates all those savings lol

@AAGDhillon @realkarenjean @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept Don’t forget Washington’s ‘assault weapon’ and mag ban!!

The @CivilRights Division just opened an investigation into another state—Washington—that incarcerates men with women, violating women’s privacy and putting them in harm’s way. This @TheJusticeDept will defend the rights of ALL women! justice.gov/opa/pr/justice…

@fourboxesdiner @FischerKing64 My employer paid for 100% of my electrical engineering degree. They also paid me hourly to sit in school and learn. There are better ways than learning on YouTube.

@FischerKing64 Generally speaking, I don’t recommend going to college unless you must go as a credential for law or medical school etc. Otherwise, go to work, make $$ and learn on YouTube

Over half of all Americans attend some form of ‘higher education’ today, something that was once reserved for a small cohort of people. A large chunk of them don’t even get a degree - just the debt. Closing down 75% of universities will not result in any loss to mind or culture, will save people a lot of $$, and will force schools to fire administrators and focus on research and teaching - for students who actually belong there and want to be there. Pinching off these schools is a good thing.

@sciencegirl Gasoline (bought two EVs)

What is something you've officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting?

@CRPAPresident @guns_ny A reminder that Bruen unleashed an uncharacteristically large torrent of new gun laws, that completely ignore SCOTUS. I don’t know that we need another ‘win’.

SCOTUS passed over Duncan and the other hardware cases again today. Spinning in the wind!

@GuntherEagleman Personal agency IS a myth. It doesn’t matter which boxes you check, or if you check any boxes at all. Free will is an illusion, but that doesn’t mean actions shouldn’t have consequences.

Elon just endorsed it. Gad Saad dropped the hammer on Fox this morning. We now live in a world where: - Rape victims get less sympathy than their rapists - Homeowners get less than the squatters breaking in - American vets get less than illegal migrants - Repeat felons with 186 charges get 200 more “chances” because “society made them do it” This isn’t kindness. This is suicidal empathy. Universities spent decades teaching our judges, leaders, and elites that personal agency is a myth if you check the right oppression boxes. So criminals become victims, victims become bigots for complaining, and the whole system rots from the inside.

@PNWForestKing I sold my 2023 Pathfinder and bought a new Tesla Model Y. My gas bill went from $850/month (when gas was $4/gal, to only $110/month to charge the Tesla. Same miles driven.

THIS IS NOT AI: This is filing up your family / household vehicle with gas in Washington State every 4 days..
