So the one that was supposed to pick up the sweater tried to hand it on the peg in the meeting room but obviously missed and just dropped it on the floor. Then just stood there for like 30 seconds until the gal asked to have the cup picked up. And the one wiping up the puddle of soy sauce or...

I can not understand why anyone would buy a Vinfast.

Yang called his UBI a "freedom dividend". The idea that, as citizens, we should all benefit from the productivity of our economy. He often said, paraphrasing, "it's not socialism, it's capitalism where income doesn't start at zero" In other words you're free to earn as much as you wish on top of...

Would and will.

It's diesel.

"We have prototype one and two being assembled in our factory. 6 passengers plus a pilot. To get the prototype off the ground it still needs a bunch of motors and our batteries. First assembly trail of the full pack was completed last week. There a few bugs to fix, but nothing major. We need a...

My best friend is leading the design of the battery enclosure for Lilium. Crazy challenge. He's basically inventing a new material. We were talking about how to perform a dielectric withstand test on a panel of the substance the other day. Stock has been doing well. He said it's because Lilium...

In all my years watching the stock, I don't think I've ever seen it move in such an exact inverse of VTI as it has today.

Yes, yes we all miss him very much.

Well I also have an 11 year old leaf 😃

I dunno. I tried my best to justify, economically, the cost of buying a Tesla and it just doesn't pencil out compared with keeping my old golf. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1m-HU4LNLfjbo3FOZk6SbNv3R_Ro7cM2N/edit?usp=drivesdk&ouid=115126032459488159390&rtpof=true&sd=true

Unless you're Subaru. Their PZEVs have partial zero emissions. Partial zero. 🙄

Anybody know how much these things weigh? Optimus, Figure01...?

Thanks

Looking at buying a 2017-2019 Model X. Trying to figure out whether the USB ports in the car (for charging phones & stuff) are USB A or USB C. Thanks.

I've been attending the 2024 NABCEP conference all week and it's batteries batteries batteries

Eh, it's closer to 3 acres per MWdc for fixed tilt. https://www.energy.gov/sites/default/files/2022-01/lbnl_ieee-land-requirements-for-utility-scale-pv.pdf

Also, NOx.

I'm late to the climate change party but I'm surprised nobody mentioned Elon's frequent advocacy for a carbon tax and his, correct, opinion that it an unpriced negative externality. I sure wish this idea would get some traction. In fact I think I prefer that approach to handing people cash to...

Where did you come up with that number? https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/401k-limit-increases-to-23000-for-2024-ira-limit-rises-to-7000

Joke is on them, MV underground cable is mostly aluminum! I've been thinking Tesla should be manufacturing MV transformers for a few years now.

I liked Zach a lot but he always sounded to me like he was apologizing for something. Just the way he speaks I guess.

Sorry, I guess I'll HODL my stories to myself, like I HODL my TSLA (since 2012!)

Cold car antecdote: my Golf TDI failed to start this afternoon. 19F when I parked it at work this morning. My strong suspicion is that the intercooler is full of ice and blocking airflow to the motor. This is condensed water vapor from combustion introduced by the low pressure EGR. Functioning...

Kempower stock has been dropping like a rock too. Anyone know why? Something going on with NEVI? Edit: looks like a similar trend for charge point. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/chargepoint-holdings-inc-chpt-stock-215019818.html

I just signed up to demo my Leaf!

"some room for improvement"

43. This was my first post on this forum. I have been invested in TSLA since 2012. I follow the perpetual thread every day. Just don't have much to add usually.

My best friend growing up was actually named Nikola Tesla. I just called him Nik.
