    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I haven't heard of HW4 cars running FSD in emulation before now. A quick query found the summary below with an emulation reference. I'll be trying FSD V12.3 for the first time once it stops snowing here in Vermont. Does HW4 emulating code trained for HW3 cars mean that FSD won't work...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Strongly agree. I live in Vermont and until now the nearest service center has been a four hour round trip to Lathrop New York. Just had my first Ranger service visit a few weeks ago (to fix a fog light) and showed a bad panel gap to the technician. He measured and said it was sufficient...

    SpaceX Starship - Integrated Flight Test #2 - Starbase TX - Including Post Launch Dissection

    When telemetry with Starship was lost, wouldn't the velocity readout stop showing increasing velocity? Either stay at last velocity data point received or go blank? I wonder how long before the visual dot disappeared was telemetry lost? I'd speculate that the earlier it was lost before...

    One demo should be towing a Raptor engine. Unless they have the Plaid Cybertruck with Raptor mounted on back ready to go.

    And please Lord, let such a smaller, modestly fast Roadster be a full convertible like it's grandfather. Even if only as an option!

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    Florida, Louisiana,Texas, North and South Carolina, and Georgia have a combined coastline of 2700 miles. Gaza's coastline is 25 miles. I think the IDF can shut down weapons smuggling by sea into Gaza.

    They'd have to bulk Optimus up a bit....but yes, I can see that working.

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    I would speculate that Ukraine can figure out weapons to blow up a yet to be started naval base sooner than Russian can build that base.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Yesterday a law firm announced they'd filed a class action suit against Origin. Origin Class Action Suit So some good analysis work would be needed to figure out if the suit is merited or not and how much risk it introduces investing in the company at this low entry point.

    What other tech stock to consider?

    Thanks for posting. I'd never heard of Origin but if they can produce more environment friendly industrial materials at costs low enough to permit fast scaling, it would be just what the plastic choked planet needs. I imagine you got the 10 B order book figure from company statements. Is...

    Great post! There is a killer EV vs ICE education ad based on this post just waiting to be created by some forward looking company and broadcast during a Super Bowl.

    Optimus (not) driving the Cybertruck across the stage with FSD v12? den Holy sugar! I may have accidentally made a point in a post! :D

    Russia/Ukraine conflict

    I'd like to request some help from the group on finding the truth about an assertion by a good friend of mine who monitors news of the war daily. It is not anything about the current discussions around whether Starlink was covering coastline of Crimea or not. My friend asserted that some...

    Elon Musk - SpaceX version

    I watched the CBS Sunday morning interview with Isaacson today, and it was the host who added his Twitter post clarification after he explained his book and WaPo article version. Isaacson has done many interviews since the book's release. Where did you find the more lengthy clarification...
