Body by Ford/Toyota. Engineering by Tesla
New video out: youtu.be/k77X47h6OVU
Ford and Toyota have recently canceled most of their EV plans.
While the media sees it as retracting from EVs, in fact they have only canceled older, money-losing designs - while doubling down on TESLA’S unboxed manufacturing breakthrough.
But while they share the same technological blueprint, their survival strategies are radically different - One is transforming the mothership; the other is building an ark to let the old ship sink

One thing I love about orbital datacenters is that their radiators, ahem, actually are radiators.
Unlike cars, PCs, and terrestrial datacenters -whose 'radiators' are mostly just convectors.
Finally, physics and terminology match.

To all the "Elon's buying the government" halfwits - let's make a deal.
Let government pass a resolution that all SpaceX deals will be closed at exactly 10% off the price of the nearest competitor!
(sounds fair - if you don't mind paying more😂 )

Wrong on every count. The annual wealth tax would have forced Elon to divest of his assets. Tesla and SpaceX would have disappeared as independent, vibrant assets, and US exceptionalism along with it. Many, many Americans would be far poorer today than they were then. And none of the poor would have seen a dime of the taxes (since the US and the States, in particular California, spend far more than they collect.) You can't cure dumb. For reference...see Europe.

If Bernie's 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires had been enacted in 2012, Elon Musk would be worth less than $365 billion instead of the $1.2 trillion that he's worth today.
Elon would still be the wealthiest man alive & every family in America would have universal childcare.

Anthropic: We want government to regulate AI to make sure it’s safe
Government: We hereby regulate Anthropic’s AI as we find it isn’t safe
Anthropic: No we meant regulate the other guys

If you have not seen the latest Video from @ConnectingODots I strongly suggest it. Great take on Ford's future EV's along with Toyota.

Ford's smaller all-electric pickup truck spotted testing on public roads for the first time. Ford says it will have a starting price of around $30,000 and launch in 2027.
It's definitely noticeably smaller than the F-150 Lightning. The bed is interesting.

Toyota's CEO issues a stark warning: the auto industry faces a fight for survival against China. Unless Toyota radically transforms, it will die. We dissect the strategies and technology behind this disruption. video here: youtu.be/k77X47h6OVU #Toyota #Ford #Disruption

Historical milestones never looked so sexy. Or potent.

Each one built with love. When @elonmusk said that, really choked me up. Everyday we make our products with our customers in mind. We love all of you more than you know. Thanks for CONSTANTLY lifting us up. ALL THE LOVE!!!!

Historical monuments were never this fun

After nearly 18 years I can stop working on Model S and X. We put so much love into these products, but will continue to pour that into the future products. Thanks to everyone who believed in and supported these cars through the years. We strived for the best and will never stop. Saying goodbye to something great and making room for something even greater!

QUESTION TO CAT PARENTS
My cat just chin-rubbed my phone (now officially hers) then tried to paw it off the table, but I stopped her
Now I feel guilty:
Since her phone, should I have let her drop it?
And am I allowed to even use it anymore, or do I need to buy myself a new one?

X Android app needs a "Set app language" option — exactly like the standalone Grok app already has.
I keep my phone in the local language for other reasons, but I want X fully in English.
It was only a minor annoyance before. Now that auto-translate is added, it's a real problem:
Foreign posts (German, Korean, etc.) suddenly appear translated into my local language instead of English. They become basically unreadable for me.
Replying with quote is even worse — I have to switch my entire phone to English → force-close & restart X → copy text or take a screenshot → then switch back. Super annoying.
A simple per-app language setting would solve this for thousands of users.
If this bothers you too, please repost 🙏 (helps way more than a like) or reply so the team sees it.

🚨 NEW TESLA PRODUCT COMING? 👀
In my latest video, I shared a prediction about a new Tesla product I believe is coming soon - and it’s something nobody is talking about yet.
I mentioned I’d make a full video on it, but I also promised a hint… and during editing, I accidentally left it out
The only hint I'll give is this pic👇
(differences between two versions unimportant)
Take your best guess in the comments - what new product do you think Tesla is about to release?

Have you or someone you know ever had Tesla FSD prevent what could have been a serious accident?
I’m helping @connectingodots gather credible first-hand stories for a video aimed at pushing autonomous-friendly regulations and facilitating the approval of Tesla's Robotaxi pilots in major cities.
Please contact @connectingodots directly.
