I'm heading back to Nepal, then on to Ethiopia in December. This is where the big stories are and I've got a lot of high level exclusives in the works. Thank you to all of you who support me on X, Patreon, and YouTube. Without you we couldn't make this happen.

Pretty proud of this little victory. Managed to get an impersonator of @NickGibbsIAG taken down today. – at Kelso, WA

Crikey!
Maybe more sensors would have helped! It's all about the brains.

Guys, this is important stuff. We gotta ban seatbelts and airbags because they're going to destroy the hospital industry. Why won't anyone take this seriously?!?
A protest has taken place in London against Robotaxis, calling for their licences to be revoked. Is an autonomous Robotaxi future the one we want? or are we destined to fall further behind the USA as Tesla Robotaxis and Cybercabs operate successfully in multiple cities? Let's take a look (Video in thread below 👇)

Say Technologies questions got downright professional!
Here are the top 7 voted for questions by retail investors for @Tesla's Q3 earnings call this Wednesday: 1) How does the Cybercab fleet scale past Austin, and what’s the regulatory path outside Texas given NHTSA’s open safety review? 2) When can we anticipate FSD unsupervised in customer cars? 3) When will the CyberCab be available for customer purchase/ownership? 4) What’s the unit economics per paid robotaxi mile, and how does it compare to the thirty-cent target? 5) What’s the cost per Optimus unit, and what does the first paying customer look like? 6) When do you anticipate Optimus will begin generating revenue? 7) Tesla has acknowledged that HW3 vehicles cannot support unsupervised FSD. When will owners know whether they can upgrade their hardware for free, and when will Tesla provide a clear plan?

Ah yes, the classic "flying car" I saw at the Detroit Auto Show (among others,) a few years ago. If you think it looks bad in this footage, it's hilariously janky in person.
It’s not even a car! 🤣 It’s six drones held together with popsicle sticks and duct tape wearing a car outfit and bicycle tires! (the automotive equivalent of that cartoon trope where 3 little kids stand on each other’s shoulders in a trenchcoat pretending to be an adult)!

Seems like it would be cheaper to just put playing cards in the spokes.
I will forever hate the faux engine sounds they create for electric cars

I think it's a bit too sexy for most to handle, which is why they keep the ankle covered out in public. You guys get this, right?
This might be the coolest thing I’ve ever seen on a car… And what a badge to have on your performance package! In years gone by across the automotive industry we’ve seen performance names like Shelby, Banks, Whipple, NOS, Brembo, Paxton, Dinan, Calloway, Abarth, Brabus, Saleen and others. But having the name SpaceX on your vehicle takes it to a whole other galaxy!

My Meet & Greet time was set nice and early. They must have known how a double-scoop like me melts in the sun. Thanks again to @SjvTesla @teslaownersSV and everyone who came out for the fun, information, and to share and expand our friendship.

For the curious, the answer is 26,000 miles. Which is crazy because people who don't drive an EV, or who drive it like it's stolen, have assured me they only last 10,000.
Take a look at the remaining tire tread and guess how many miles are on this Tesla.

This guy drives by looking in the rearview mirror. That's one strategy, I guess. Unless you have a time machine, this method is unlikely to bear fruit.

Today in Bandon it backed me into a nose-in spot. In Coos Bay it just drove past the angle in chargers entirely without stopping and removed it as a destination. Never been here before. Is this quiet area problems or a regression? – at Eastside, OR
Again, consistently inconsistent @Tesla . I'll go ahead and finish backing up since the car couldn't

An interesting poll out by Mergy McMergeface... At least that would have been my vote. 😢
Ok, I promised I'd change my name for 24h once we have a merger announcement. What's your preference?
