@DillonLoomis22 For I determined to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified. (1 Corinthians 2:2, NASB) As aliens and sojourners, our focus shouldn’t be on earthly things, but telling the good news, which is the only thing that can make a difference.

Loaned my Tesla Model Y to my daughter for a road trip, and I get to drive her ICE SUV. Feels like I went back twenty years. Decided to fill it up using Tier 1 gasoline, so … 1. Google the nearest @Chevron . Analyze the map for the station along my route home. Start route

Somewhere, there's a teacher that paid more than $11,000,000,000 ($11B) in taxes.

In my view, a teacher should not pay more in income tax than the wealthiest person in the country.

FSD Beta V11.3.4 running over a traffic cone. Notice the white pickup truck approaching. You should be thankful there is no audio. My beloved bride let out a blood-curdling scream. I was shocked, too.

Electric vehicles are much more expensive than gasoline cars, cause way more pollution, require expensive battery replacement, and can’t go more than a few miles without needing a recharge that takes 8 hours. You can’t find a charger, and if you do, it costs more than gasoline.

@leedom_tyler Because I (and others) don’t consider it a mild mistake. If I had not stopped it, I would certainly have had a head-on collision with the white truck. I posted this to make other Beta testers aware. I’m a Tesla bull, and love all of Tesla products.

@DirtyTesLa You’ll notice it slows to a crawl coming beside the people on the right. I pushed the accelerator to avoid blocking traffic and to speed up from about 5 MPH to about 15-20 MPH. As many pointed out, I think it was the original lane markings that caused the problem.

No one bought a pickup truck just to drive around in a pickup truck. Yesterday, I saw a Lincoln pickup truck and thought, “That HAS to be the epitome of a ‘princess pickup’!”
