holy crap...so Cathie violated youtube community standards?
Yeah, sorry. It was marked live which is why I pulled it up. It was actually taken down now.
Here in the AH I will anecdotally add that in the city of Munich three malls are each getting a 12-stall v3 (250 kW) supercharger (one is already open, 2/12 in use just now) - in addition to the superchargers along each Autobahn near the city. So it's not like Tesla is planning to leave any of the car market to the local auto makers. In fact, one of these malls is right next to the BMW HQ...
We're gonna need a bigger chart.

A Montana mountain was on the shortlist, but the spouse straight up refused to live there due to the Dutton’s shenanigans.
But are you sure you beat me to the punch? I picked the mountain out last August. Regardless, congratulations!
Not sure the tire pressure matters within normal limits. There is the tire pressure sensor which will tell you at least that much.
We’re talking about tread wear right?
The sensor would be fixed but the tire will turn side to side as you drive. That would give you something akin to visual disparity. So you don’t actually need an active sensor (maybe you need illumination) such as Lidar.
Tires rotate while you drive of course.
I’d think you could get a decent surface map with low-to-moderate spatio-temporal resolution imaging or pseudo-imaging.
As for suspension travel, you might be able to get by with just sampling within a relatively small band of travel gauged wrt to the wheel directly or to the road.
There’s probably a lot of time to sample given reasonable rates of tire wear, unless you are interested in real edge cases.
However, I’m not an engineer by training despite having played a software engineer in Silicon Valley and working with and within technical teams (including auto R&D) through much of my career. Also, I think different, waaay different, so ymmv.

Hey, what's going on? Is it high tide again at 700?
I'm trying to work, it's throwing off my game. I read about a police car incident and Boom, it jumps up?
Learning to expect anything at this point.

I mean I already live at mine and conduct firearms drills from the main deck daily in various states of sobriety. I understand construction for yours is still being planned, while all I have left to build on mine is the helipad.

Deep sympathy! That looks so painful! I also got the Coolant low message a few days ago and had to scram to SeC today; still drivable. Leaking vents. On back order. Got a confusing spanking Audi A7 diesel rental (32 km on the odo) on insurance meanwhile. Can't wait to get back my trusty ole Lessmog! Must be patient for GF4 to build my next, a Y.
At least it was an (overly) exciting outing in the wild for a day. Can hardly wait to expose ourselves to the mad clamor of Metropolitan Mölndal and slide back to normality again!

It wasn't Jerome who brought the SP up.
In actuality, it was the eariler poetry that was the catalyst. Just sayin'
Jerome should get an honorable mention for the assist.

You’ve got some cajones, buster. I’ll admit I thought of your poem not-so-fondly when we were in the 660s today.

Let us know if Hunter S. Thompson is hiding out with you. Sounds like a perfect intro to Where the Buffalo Roam, or Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
You probably just wanted to keep him away from that hottie Beth.
I'm wondering if they can deduce like tread wear by the performance of the tires?
How much they slip in particular weather conditions, the NN knows if the road is wet or dry, and how wet.,
The traction control / ABS knows if the tires are slipping.
A long term average of reduced grip in actual driving conditions is the best measure.
This doesn't need a camera, however in marginal cases a Robo-taxi or Tesla owner could visit a special drive through tire assessment bay at a service center,
The bay can have cameras and identify the car via WiFi/ Bluetooth.
The combination of these 2 approaches should give a very accurate estimate, and perhaps there is a learning feedback loop where the system can improve overtime.
Tesla can also partner Tire Makers to test specialist EV tires on Robo-taxis (longer wear, reduced rolling resistance)
The Tire Maker program is going to benefit for lost of accurate feedback data on real world performance, grip and wear.
Didn't Tesla beefed up underbody protection shield 7 years ago with Model S? I thought they would be extra careful and added extra protection for Model 3 as well, regardless if Titanium was used or not.
