@MarcusHouse Would have made more sense, imo, to put a stap harness around the nose and pull from the pins used when landing on chopsticks. Also use more than one towing ship simultaneously if one can't easily defeat the current. Other solutions exist but more expensive.

@Matt_Pinner I have the same identical weights. They hang from chains that drive our German cuckoo clock.

@fhjdixbdkdjdh @slye Short answer - Yes. I find the engagement sequence important (mySigen settings first, then plug in car).

@ryanjaycowan If your HW3 car is on the 2026.26.x pipeline then you're limited to 'standard' updates (cruise control, auto pilot, enhanced auto pilot). To switch to the 2026.20.6.x pipeline (and prepare for v14 lite) you'll need to subscribe to FSD-S (which only gives you EAP for now).

@ryanjaycowan 2026.20.6.9 arrived for my 2023 RWD Model Y a few days ago. This puts my car in the 'FSD' pipeline, with 2026.20.6.11 (or greater) containing the v14 lite stack. I don't think mainstream Aussies will get v14 Lite for 2 to 4 months (influencers and early access program earlier).

@elonmusk Strap on a battery, propeller, starlink dish. Battery powers the devices. Remote control over starlink steers it ashore.

@craigkellyAFEE Further, tens of thousands of homes in Australia also have solar on their roof, powering their homes throughout the day and charging up their batteries to power their homes overnight. This also reduces the dependency on coal & gas plants throughout the day.

@craigkellyAFEE This may be true but you have (conveniently?) failed to mention that the number of homes in Australia with batteries that power their home overnight has dramatically reduced the dependency on coal & gas.

@JamesMcPherson @Tesla_AI How about every person that talks about FSD issues (or praises) start off with their 2 letter country code. That way I'll know if the post concerns me.

@Fa21519230 Grok: This post is partially based on a real study but significantly exaggerates, misrepresents & sensationalizes the findings. It promotes a strong "high cholesterol = longevity" narrative that the evidence does not fully support, especially after corrections to the key paper.

@FreeVoice023 There should be a rule that whenever someone posts an AI created content (video or otherwise) it is labelled as such so that people don't assume the video is real-life footage.

@BitcoinIntelX Gifting to family members (if in the rules). Possibly buy some art (but hard to do in 30 mins). Buy crypto (like USDC, ETH, RPL etc) if in the rules.

@SawyerMerritt Same in Australia. I asked AI and there are only 3 cars in Oz that are level 2 anonymous today (2 of which are Tesla's, being M3 and MY).
