“@teslaownersSV A surprising number of people think that Tesla survives on subsidies. That is true of our competitors, but not of Tesla.”

“@Teslarati @KlenderJoey This was *extremely* difficult. Huge props to Tesla engineering, supply chain, production & key suppliers.”
“Longer version of self-driving demo with Paint It Black soundtrack https://t.co/YuUmyEaCgR https://www.tesla.com/videos/autopilot-self-driving-hardware-neighborhood-long?redirect=no”
“@RyanZohoury @TeslaCharging @Tesla And, of course, you can pay in Ðoge”
“@ecommerceshares The cemetery of automotive startups over the past century is very large & will get larger. Tesla & Ford are the only American car companies that haven’t gone bankrupt.”
“@BLKMDL3 Haha, FSD 9 beta is shipping soon, I swear! Generalized self-driving is a hard problem, as it requires solving a large part of real-world AI. Didn’t expect it to be so hard, but the difficulty is obvious in retrospect. Nothing has more degrees of freedom than reality.”
“@TesLatino Annual tire rotation is actually optional. Only worthwhile if you see significant differential wear on inside vs outside of tire.”
“Super appreciate free concert for Tesla during this intense time! 🖤🖤”
“@WholeMarsBlog That’s where we get most of our lithium. Also, whereas phone batteries make heavy use of cobalt in cathode, Tesla uses primarily nickel, which is trickier, but has better energy density (range). Iron cathode cells are now competitive for stationary packs & mid range cars.”
“Getting there was super hard. Very proud of Tesla team!”
“The Tesla team did a great job clearing out the broken conveyor system within 48 hours!”
“@flcnhvy @thatdogegirl @WhatsupFranks @TeslaGong Becoming multiplanetary is one of the greatest filters. Only now, 4.5 billion years after Earth formed, is it possible. How long this window to reach Mars remains open is uncertain. Perhaps a long time, perhaps not. In case it is the latter, we should act now.”
“@Halo @pewdiepie Cybertruck is inspired by games like Halo. Warthog irl!!”
“Looks like the Model S P100D Easter egg will allow it to do 0 to 60 mph in 2.4 sec and a 10.6 sec 1/4 mile via software update next month”
“@Teslarati @13ericralph31 SpaceX has more active satellites in orbit than rest of Earth combined, tracking to double rest of Earth soon”
“RT @SecDuffy: Stopped by @Tesla Gigafactory in Austin with @ElonMusk to see firsthand the future of autonomous vehicles. We need American…”
“To simplify production, many Tesla Model S & X interior configs, will no longer be available after Nov 1. Order now to be sure of the one you want.”
“Please let us know what improvements we can make to any aspect of Tesla SolarGlass roof! Critical feedback is much appreciated.”
“@Teslaconomics You’re right. The actual time from when FSD sort of works to where it is much safer than a human is several years. The legacy car companies won’t design the cameras and AI computers into their cars at scale until several years after that. So this is maybe a competitive… https://t.co/9W5TaSTjwQ https://x.com/i/web/status/2008418074152636903”
“@TeslaGong That is my gaming laptop, which has never had a sticker until now”
“@TesLatino Sorry, this is one of the last neural nets to be updated to surround video (from single camera, single frame)”
“Vote tally shows ~85% of unaffiliated shareholders in favor of the Tesla/SolarCity merger! Thanks for believing.”
“The FSD price will continue to rise as the software gets closer to full self-driving capability with regulatory approval. It that point, the value of FSD is probably somewhere in excess of $100,000.”
“@teslaownersSV @_hamster_coin Volume should be measured in units of hamster 🐹”
“@MightyTesla @SamTalksTesla @ElonsWorld @Nikola_Truth @WholeMarsBlog @RenataKonkoly @stevenmarkryan @vincent13031925 @HyperChangeTV @TeslaPodcast Hell of a ride!”
“@Scobleizer An accurate assessment. What is also mindblowing is that the inference compute power needed for 8 cameras running at 36FPS is only about 100W on the Tesla-designed AI computer. This puny amount of power is enough to achieve superhuman driving! It makes a big difference that we…”
“@cybrtrkguy The regulatory process for approval to offer insurance is extremely slow & complex, varying considerably by state. Tesla is hoping to offer real-time (based on actual driving history) insurance in Texas next month. Probably next year before we get approval in New York.”
“Those who predicted Tesla & EVs would be dead & autonomy would never happen are same people attacking Tesla today for 6-12 month delays, while ignoring major automakers 5+ years late. Why the double standard?”
“@RomainHedouin Tesla is worth more than all other automotive companies combined. Which of those CEOs would you like to run Tesla? It won’t be me.”
“@TeslaratiApp @Teslarati I bought a pair of XL”
“@WholeMarsBlog HW4 software will lag HW3 by at least another six months, as our focus needs to be on getting FSD on HW3 working super well and provided internationally.”
“@spideycyp_155 @teslaownersSV @TheTexanNews @MayraFlores2022 I’m thinking of creating a “Super Moderate Super PAC” that supports candidates with centrist views from all parties”
“Btw, Tesla actually receives *least* subsidies of any automaker in US. Federal tax credit applies to other automaker EVs, but no longer Tesla.”
“@PPathole @Tesla @SpaceX High pain threshold”
“@WholeMarsBlog This variant of the Model Y doesn’t start production in the US until the end of next year. Might not ever, given the advent of self-driving in America.”
“@nichegamer Would be fun to add to Tesla”
“@TesLatino We created our own connector, as there was no standard back then & Tesla was only maker of long range electric cars. It’s one fairly slim connector for both low & high power charging. That said, we’re making our Supercharger network open to other EVs later this year.”
“Most people don’t know that the Tesla Supercharger network allows easy long distance travel throughout USA, most of Europe, Canada and China https://t.co/ZzN9Tabq8C https://www.tesla.com/findus?v=2&bounds=70.04727546592196%2C-72.3304073559143%2C-11.962870650187314%2C-138.2483761059143&zoom=3&filters=supercharger”
“@rough__sea Yes. Optimus will be the first Von Neumann machine, capable of building civilization by itself on any viable planet.”
“Thought it would slow way down today, but Model 3 order count is now at 198k. Recommend ordering soon, as the wait time is growing rapidly.”
“@Teslarati 310S stainless is better for high temp outer skin, as it can take ~1450 Kelvin, so active cooling with cryogenic fuel only has to mitigate 300 degrees of delta temp”
“@WholeMarsBlog We need to predict what pedestrians will do based on their behavior, including limb angle & direction of sight. FSD currently sees all pedestrians as cuboids, so is overly cautious. Also, diffusion seems to be more compute-efficient than transformers for vision.”
“@BillyM2k @heydave7 Indeed. Over time, Tesla will generate hundreds of billions for the government in terms of employee income tax, product sales tax and property tax, in addition to profit taxation.”
“@RustyRoad @teslaownersSV @RyanGirdusky @GoodPoliticGuy Human are absurdly concentrated on a tiny percentage of Earth’s surface. That’s why people in cities think Earth is “full” of people, when in fact it is basically empty.”
“@VanSeedBank I promise that we will make a pickup truck right after Model Y. Have had the core design/engineering elements in my mind for almost 5 years. Am dying to build it.”
“@MatthewDR @Tesla Maybe they’re right, but I just have a lot of frens … 🤷♂️”
“@Teslarati @ResidentSponge Pure vision Autopilot is now rolling out in North America. There will be an update of this production release in 2 weeks, then FSD beta V9.0 (also pure vision) a week later. FSD subscription will be enabled around the same time.”
“As mentioned earlier this year, cost of the Tesla FSD option will increase every few months. Those who buy it earlier will see the benefit.”
“@teslaownersSV @RaheemKassam @nypost Their posts are super boring”
“@Teslarati @RDAnglePhoto First orbital stack of Starship should be ready for flight in a few weeks, pending only regulatory approval”
