    Bought FSD, but X is stuck on 2020 software build without it

    Not because of the MCU1. Because of MCU1 combined with HW3. People with standard HW1 or HW2 and MCU1 config have been getting recent updates like everyone else. Really wished I knew at the time that update to HW3 for (eventual) FSD would permanently freeze firmware updates. I wouldn't have...

    Bought FSD, but X is stuck on 2020 software build without it

    If you look at Teslafi, most of the MCU1 and even AP1 cars from 5 years ago have the latest 2021.41 version of firmware. It's not MCU1. It's the combination of MCU1 and HW3 upgrade. Everyone that did the HW3 upgrade for FSD has essentially frozen their car out of updates from the time they did...

    Who is also stuck on 2020.48.37.6 ?

    No, it isn't a limitation on the MCU1. There are plenty of MCU1 cars out there with 2021.40 software, even older ones with Autopilot 1. On Teslafi, over 30% of AP1 cars are on 2021.40 software. It is a limitation on the configuration of MCU1 and FSD updates from AP2.5 to AP3 hardware. So few...

    2020.48.37.2 just released?

    Same here. MCU1 with HW3 upgrade. Still stuck on 2020.48.37.2. Went in to service center for another issue and had a big arguing match with the tech as to why I'm stuck with 7 month old firmware. Showed him that less than 1/10 of one percent of HW3 cars are on 2020 firmware, from TeslaFi...

    2020.20 update on Teslafi

    I would give up the fluffware if I could just turn off the Autopilot nag and get the streaming service to save my last position when I restart the car.

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    Being a good chip designer doesn't make you a subject matter expert on all possible programming and computer science algorithms that run on your chip.

    Preview of Cybertruck's Autopilot.

    I'm pretty sure this also solves the problem of drivers casually falling asleep with Autopilot engaged.

    Preview of Cybertruck's Autopilot.

    Although I do admit, it does better that I could in keeping its lane.

    Preview of Cybertruck's Autopilot.

    Seems pretty similar to the one in my Model S. Autopilot on Twitter (Make sure to turn on the sound)

    Blog SpaceX Offers to Buy Out Homeowners Near Texas Launchpad

    Why didn't they just build on a remote site in the first place? This had to be a consideration before building the launch pad.

    Video: Driver left scene of an accident / Update: driver caught

    In the entire history of Humanity, has any hot young girl broken up with her boyfriend because of "bad boy" behavior? To ask the question is to laugh.

    2019.8.5 dash cam

    I have the same problem. Dash cam used to work fine until update to 2019.8.3. Can't get the gray x to go away, no matter how many times I reformat and re-create the TeslaCam folder.

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    Off topic, but if I want to eventually root my Model S, should I refuse the latest updates? Right now I am at 1018.50.6. Will the new updates close off all the means of rooting the MCU?

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    I remember in some other thread he said it wasn't disengagements that triggered logging, but certain specific environmental triggers. He called them "campaigns" where a certain thing to look for was enabled on a small subset of the fleet. I think someone else said that supervised learning...

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    How much profit you make is a very good proxy to how well you are doing your job. If you give your product away, you will lose money and soon go out of business. You charge too much, no one will buy your product, you soon go out of business. Maximizing your profit maximizes your capital to...

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    Probably a bit early to start lawsuits. But I suppose it is better to be prepared. I bought FSD in late 2017, but the cost was only 2% of the total for the car, so I'm not going to get too angry about it one way or the other. Someone that bought it with a $40,000 Model 3 would end up paying...

    Software Update 2019.5.x

    I wonder why it has such rough granularity. If you notice, it jumps back and forth at least 2 feet. You would think it would be inaccurate, but smoothly moving around. It seems to be quantized at a very granular level.

    Software Update 2019.5.x

    Yeah, their NN isn't very accurate at judging distances for surrounding cars. I suspect this is why Navigate on Autopilot is going to FSD. Hardware 2.5 isn't going to cut it even for NOA because of how poorly it estimates distances. Which means everyone that purchased EAP is probably going to...

    New FSD details

    All they have to do is get rid of nag for early FSD purchasers and I would be perfectly happy with that. Costs them nothing but slight lawsuit liability. Maybe they could put a disclaimer when you disable nags that you are on your own.
  20. I

    New FSD details

    Not likely. No way they could afford that. If they give it away for free now, I will feel pretty foolish for buying FSD from the beginning.

    Charging a P100D - questions about house installation

    I was going to ask the same. $90 for a 14-50 socket is outrageous.
  23. I

    Do you use a Tesla Wall Connector?

    Garage already had a 14-30 socket, so I bought a HPWC and wired a 14-30 drier plug to it and just plugged it in. Also limited it to 20 Amps. I charge overnight, so it is always topped off in the morning. Plus I can keep the portable charger in the trunk if I need to go somewhere without...

    For those that own a Model S Ludicrous without breaking the bank, what is you total comp or job?

    P100D L Sold 6% of some Bitcoin I had mined in 2011. Paid cash, around $150,000

    Impact of February 28 Announcement on Current 100D Owners

    Everything gets cheaper as economies of scale improve. BTW, Elon doesn't really get to dictate the market price. The market does. If sales are slowing, he has to lower the price to keep production up. Some people will complain about anything.

    New FSD details

    I forget, did you buy the original FSD?

    New FSD details

    Well, finally some good news for us FSD purchasers. At least they threw us a bone.

    New FSD details

    As far as I know, EAP will inherit Auto Lane Change without confirmation when it comes out. I don't think there will be one ALC with confirmation and one without.
  29. I

    New FSD details

    This is how Elon throws a bone to the FSD purchasers. He now gives them some features that basic AP doesn't have. So even without any of the original FSD features, people can still feel better about getting something for their FSD purchase. Before, the FSD purchasers got exactly nothing.

    However, all levels, even with no Autopilot use all 8 cameras for collision detection and blind spot monitoring.

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    The "Green" hacker/member (I can't remember his exact username) has pretty conclusively shown that at least so far, Tesla doesn't use supervised learning on any of the fleet of cars. They record certain events and send them back to the mothership, but none of the events involve what the driver...

    On the road to full Autonomy with Elon Musk (Podcast Ark-Invest)

    US S.3559 115th Congress

    Exactly. I bought a Model S P100D, and got the full credit. But I would get rid of the tax break if I had the power, even if it took away my benefit. It is welfare for rich bastards. You want to increase EV sales? Increase taxes on gas and diesel and the market will make EVs more economically...
  36. I

    So all model S are 100D now

    I suspect that the 2170 was really created at the behest of Panasonic so that Tesla-made batteries wouldn't end up competing with their other device markets. Since they are incompatible with laptop batteries, etc.

    Regulators are always the foil to divert blame. I don't even mind that FSD is delayed. I just wish Elon would come clean and admit it is going to take a lot longer than anticipated instead of blaming "regulators", etc. People will forgive you for a misstep. They are less likely to forgive...

    EAP is going to use all 8 cameras from here on out. It is the only safe way of doing it.

    Supercharger price hikes: what's your opinion?

    Found the socialist. If Tesla doesn't charge market rates, they will eventually go out of business. Then no one gets Superchargers at any price.

    Supercharger price hikes: what's your opinion?

    Yep, that's why I used the word 'most' not 'all'. Averaged over all s/x owners, most live in single family houses. I never said anything remotely similar to that. I AM saying that they should use a market-driven Supercharger price to keep wait times at a minimum, earn capital to expand the...

    Advanced Summon Almost Ready to Roll Out

    The imaginary one that Elon talks to in his dreams. Pretty much the typical pattern is for software delays at Tesla to be blamed on "regulators" for deflection purposes.

    Supercharger price hikes: what's your opinion?

    That is for additional equipment in the car needed for compatibility with the high-current superchargers. All current cars have it built-in from the start.

    Supercharger price hikes: what's your opinion?

    Most model S/X owners are wealthy enough to own their own home and therefore charge at home. I have lifetime free supercharging from when I bought my Model S over a year ago. So far I have used a supercharger 10 times total. As far as price, Tesla should charge whatever the market will bear...
