Tesla adds 64 Megacharger locations to map, revealing Semi truck charging routes Tesla has updated its “Find Us” map with 64 new Megacharger locations across 15 states, giving the clearest picture yet...

I think the Supercharger network is probably Tesla’s best product ever.

If Tesla can replicate that playbook for trucks, it would be a massive deal, enabling long-haul electric trucking.

It would be pretty funny if this brown-nose demon called the absolute top in her attempt to protect Epstein's friends.

Obviously aside from the fact that Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, and his board member, Kimball Musk, are actually in the real Epstein files.

Tesla is having a hard time turning over its FSD traffic violation data Tesla secured a second extension in NHTSA's FSD traffic violation probe, pushing crash data delivery to March 9 — far past the original January deadline.

Tesla got a new extension on delivering its FSD violation data to NHTSA.

There are literally too many and Tesla has to take the time to ask for redaction on everything.

This is Tesla's Epstein files.

Tesla has to pay historical $243 million judgement over Autopilot crash, judge says A federal judge has rejected Tesla’s bid to overturn a $243 million jury verdict over a fatal 2019 Autopilot crash...

We are aware of dozens of similar cases currently going through the court process on top of half a dozen known settlements since the original verdict in this case.

We are talking billions of dollars in potential settlements and verdicts over the next few years.

The fact that it's been eight months and Tesla hasn't delivered a single additional car this way confirms what we warned about at the time: this was a marketing event, not a technology deployment.

Tesla is framing a limitation as an advantage, and the CPUC filing makes that framing explicit in a way that Tesla’s marketing carefully avoids.

The blackout argument is revealing because of what Tesla isn’t saying. Yes, having a human driver makes you more resilient to power outages. It also means you haven’t solved autonomous driving.

These are not competing approaches to the same problem, they are fundamentally different products at fundamentally different stages of development.

Waymo operates actual driverless vehicles at a scale of hundreds of thousands of rides per week. Tesla operates a supervised ride-hailing service with about 42 cars in Austin and runs a ride-hailing service with drivers using FSD (Level 2) in the Bay Area.

In its own words, Tesla describes a service that requires a trained human driver in every vehicle, backed by teams of remote operators, using a Level 2 driver-assist system that legally requires constant human supervision. Then it calls it a Robotaxi.

Tesla admits it still needs drivers and remote operators — then argues that's better than Waymo Tesla filed new comments with the California Public Utilities Commission that amount to a quiet admission: its “Robotaxi” service still...

This regulatory spat between Tesla and Waymo is proving to be quite revealing.

This filing is the clearest illustration yet of the gap between Tesla’s “Robotaxi” marketing and its actual operations.

AI has been a thing for 5 minutes and these maniacs are already using it to kill people.

Humanity is begging to end itself.

As Tesla moves away from promising unsupervised self-driving in consumer vehicles, I've been working on a model to try to determine Tesla's potential liability for the false promise on millions of cars.

Any thoughts?

I’m currently in Tulum testing the BYD Shark.

I increasingly feel like this vehicle and others like it, PHEV pickup with decent all-electric range, could be the missing link to help boost EV adoption n the pickup-hungry US market, which is being left behind the rest of the world in electrification

Lately, Musk has been trying to claim that Tesla doesn't rely on teleoperation for its Optimus demo. He explicitly claimed so for the Tron premiere demo and in the kung-fu demo posted to socials:

Tesla has been using VR headsets to train the robots and do remote control.

This is suspicious as hell. It was reportedly recorded at Tesla's 'Autonomy Visualized' in Miami this weekend and posted to Reddit.

Optimus falls as if it is removing a VR headset – pointing to human teleoperation.

I think the rest of the world should learn from this. Instead of pouring capital into meme coins and made-up stores of value, we should invest in electricity generation and storage.

They are going to let the rest of the world hold the crypto bag while they have more electricity generation than anyone to power their industries, which are already taking over the world.

And I think China has figured this out, as evidenced by its new electricity generation surpassing the rest of the world combined and by its ban on cryptocurrency.

If electricity is the backbone of global trade and the metric of productivity, the kWh ultimately becomes the real currency of a truly electrified world.

The petro-dollar is dead. Long live the electro-dollar.

In this op-ed, I tried to explore the idea that if the present is electric and the future is even more electric, then it makes sense for electricity to be the foundation of the economy.

You can swap attachments easily. There's the included bucket and optional: grapple, auger, snow plow, or forks.

There's also a digging arm to bury bodies:

You can use them to move bodies on renewable energy without any emission, noise, smelly diesel:
