Disobey Tesla at your own risk: Woman tries to update vehicle while inside as temp hits 115
A California woman who said she found herself stuck inside her Tesla at a Chick-Fil-A parking lot while installing a vehicle update.
The TikToker, who is named Brianna Janel on her page, said she installed software update 2024.3.10 which was estimated to take 24 minutes but ended up taking around 40. Afraid to damage the car, she decided not to use the manual exit and wait out the process.
"Inside my car it's 103 degrees, so I'm slightly freaking out. I hope I don't run out of air," Janel said in the initial video posted last month. "I can't open up the doors or the windows otherwise I could potentially damage my car, so I'm just stuck in here roasting like a frickin chicken dripping sweat."

Tesla's valuation beggars belief. $556 billion is absolutely ludicrious. Underpants-on-head and butterfly nets territory. It might be a failure of imagination on my part but I don't see it.
That's how much money the company is going to be worth when they break into russia, china, and india....allegedly.

Elon Musk's "successful" brain implant:
85% of wires detached (getting worse all the time)
Patient asked if implant can be fixed, replaced, or just REMOVED. NeuraLink declined.
He's stuck with a non-functional implant.
Moving on to victim #2.

The Yugo's reign at the top of the Worst Automobile Ever list may finally be coming to an end.
Quote:Rear Wheels Breaking Off. “Floppy Wet Noodle” Windshield Wipers. Easily Humiliated by a Subaru. This Is the Cybertruck.
Having now recovered from myriad parts-sourcing and manufacturing issues, the Cybertruck has seen its belated introduction to prime time greeted with much hype—and worry. It’s not just the overwhelming size and weight of the thing, or its documented struggles in scaling off-road hills, or its sharp, stainless steel edges, all of which could prove fatal in the event of a collision with pedestrians, bikers, or other drivers. Really, it’s … basically everything about this boxy monstrosity. During the November rollout at Tesla’s Texas Gigafactory, tech reporters and other observers made note of the truck’s complicated doors, its floppy and lengthy windshield wipers (which … don’t cover the entire windshield, are rather expensive to replace, and apparently “flop around like a wet noodle”), its windows’ rebranding as “rock-proof” instead of “bulletproof,” and its incredibly faulty anti-crash features. Not long after the event, even more concerning elements came to the public’s attention, in the least ideal way possible: publicly, and dangerously.

It's a shame she wasn't in the drive-through. Think of the gnashing of thighs.

Trump weighs possible advisory role for Elon Musk
Former President Trump and Elon Musk have begun speaking on the phone several times a month, including about a potential advisory role for the Tesla CEO in a second Trump administration, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Why it matters: Musk has become one of President Biden's most prominent online critics, leveraging his massive X platform to attack Democrats and promote Trump's messaging on the 2024 election's top issues.

Nature confirmed other similarity vetted research by actual scientists that Elon Musk has been spewing nonsense for years.
His SpaceX Mars mission plans don’t work; likely never will.
Quote:SpaceX has published over various media (e.g., its official website, conference presentations, user manual) conceptual information for its reusable Starship to enable human exploration missions to the Martian surface by the end of the decade. The technological and human challenges associated with these plans are daunting. Such a mission at that distance would require excellent system reliability and in-situ-resource utilization on a grand scale, e.g. to produce propellant. The plans contain little details however and have not yet been reviewed concerning their feasibility. In this paper we show significant technological gaps in these plans.
Based on estimates and extrapolated data, a mass model as needed to fulfill SpaceX’s plans could not be reproduced and the subsequent trajectory optimization showed that the current plans do not yield a return flight opportunity, due to a too large system mass. Furthermore, significant gaps exist in relevant technologies, e.g. power supply for the Martian surface. It is unlikely that these gaps can be closed until the end of the decade.
Overall, with the limited information published by SpaceX about its system and mission scenario and extrapolation from us to fill information gaps, we were not able to find a feasible Mars mission scenario using Starship, even when assuming optimal conditions such as 100% recovery rate of crew consumables during flight.
