Sure, my point was that the alternate uptick rule kicks in at a 10% drop from the previous day's close, not anything pre market. You called out the correct trigger of 151.03, but stated they got it to 1% of that point when it was still 3% away at the lowest point.
There have much closer days.
Depends who the naysayers are. When they're Apollo astronauts, he cares.
Never did hear any contrition from Armstrong et al when SpaceX did successfully land a rocket, then 2 rockets at once, then reused those rockets numerous times, and has now done it ~150 times!
Did any one of them publicly apologize to Elon? It was well deserved...

Given Armstrong was dead several years by the time SpaceX landed a rocket successfully I think he gets a pass on not commenting on them accomplishing that.
As I stated "any one of them." Wasn't just Armstrong...

It also wasn't actually the critical anti-spaceX stuff 60 minutes claimed either- and many of them DID CALL THEM OUT ON THAT.
Including Armstrong.
Who wrote a letter to 60 minutes after the story aired pointing out they'd been incomplete in their reporting- and many others likewise criticized or corrected 60 minutes over the years.
See some examples here:
Why were Neil Armstrong, Eugene Cernan, and Neil DeGrasse Tyson all opposed to SpaceX?
Answer (1 of 10): I’m sure my answer will ruffle a lot of feathers. But here it goes… Corporativism. Some of those characters want things to stay the same, cause they have friends that might loose their jobs due to SpaceX. Or simple feel that their territory is being shrunk. None of those guys...

They did not. And they will not anymore than people here have apologized for past bs nor will apologize when you know what becomes something amazing they had no imagination to, well, imagine.
Yes, Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan congratulated SpaceX after the 60 minutes interview. 60 minutes didn't really represent Armstrong's testimony in Congress accurately, and issued a correction. It's not at all surprising that Apollo era astronauts would have doubts about private space programs in those early days. It took a monumental government effort to put them on the moon, after all.

Umm...wut?
OMG. Bad copy paste. That's my friend's mom. I put in a request to the mods to delete.
THIS is what we just put out today. Enjoy!
Other than this short term benefit edge case:
If one qualifies for the credit, is financing the car, and has sufficient tax burden, the credit lowers their 2023 expenses at the cost of higher payements and ultimate price. Basically paying 3,750 in taxes with the loan.
Since its the holidays, I'll share what brought me here to this forum...it's to find like-minded people that care about averting climate change.
Here is a good link as it outlines some quotes from Obama to the UN in 2016:
www.scientificamerican.com
“If we don’t act boldly, the bill that could come due will be mass migrations, and cities submerged and nations displaced, and food supplies decimated, and conflicts born of despair,” he said.
Most of it already sounds familiar to current events, yeah? Happy Holidays, everyone...

With you.
Not with you.
As someone who regularly gets absolutely slammed by devastating natural disasters because of where I live, I have no idea what this has to do with mass migrations, which I assume you mean to be from Central America into the US (I have to assume, because you didn't explain).
I have a post above that might apply:
Haiti...Dominican Republic...Cuba...Guatemala...Peru...etc. just in 2022.
Without getting into speculative territory, it's worth reading through the major events that preclude the mass migrations from those countries into the US just this year in 2022...e.g. Haiti.
Yeah, still not with you.
I have a suggestion that might help moderate things so I can go back to mostly just reading and not posting. If you want to talk about things not *very immediately directly related to TSLA or Tesla* you can just DM me. I like to chat!
Or:Talk to some computers
These appear to be local govt incentives but I'm not easily finding them from official Chinese sources. Anyone have a link to the original documents in Chinese for these incentives?
Ok, would people have to migrate en masse if the infrastructure for clean energy was available fully in their countries to have more resilient capabilities to live their lives (e.g. battery + solar)...?
Tesla tried to prioritize deliveries of products to Puerto Rico due to a few hurricanes that hit the island the past few years. Same with Tonga...Musk is trying to at least add internet connectivity to these countries with Starlink (e.g. Google Haiti and Starlink, if interested).
Mod: END THIS O/T DISTRACTION
I have no idea what you're going on about. I get hurricaned badly, regularly. It's been happening forever where I live. Can you please just DM me or something? Or talk to chatGPT?
I'll happily go silent again for a couple months if that'll help the thread get back on track, but I was naively thinking a little nudge would help! Because you guys aren't helping yourselves at all.
