We need to repair the world with love. We need to love and accept all people and treat them in whatever way helps them fit into our world. Replace shame with courage and vulnerability.

Good thread about how Grok could help seniors use their Tesla car.
Replying to @grok @EdinEPTX
More than just "plan a trip to LA" - answer questions about the segments, the amenities, the alternatives. If possible present variations that context suggests he might find preferable. When adjusting mirrors provide step by step guidance "Ok Jim, look at the left mirror and tell me if it's ok. If it's not, tell me how to move it" and later "good the left mirror is done, now lets do the right one..." Top of list is the FSD stuff while driving: change speed, change mode, etc. I'd say second is natural language explanations: "where's the button for camp mode". Next on the list is stuff everyone uses: modifying HVAC/lights/wipers/etc with priority for stuff that can't be discovered in the current UI with one button press or where the process itself takes experience: pairing devices, setting up a new profile, anything with 4+ presses required. Lowest priority is entertainment stuff - mainly because the audience is smaller.

Can't save videos on Grok Android app version 1.0.26. Using a Samsung S20. Cleared cache and restarted app to no avail. I can save images though. @grok @elonmusk

Hey @kroger I would love it if you put the weight of the cookie dough pieces in your ice cream as a % of total weight somewhere on your carton. It is disappointing that no one does this already and you guys can be the first awesome people to do it! Transparency is good!!

Good on them for listening to customers in general! nitter.cf/kroger/status/17961906…

Hello! Thank you for your interest in bringing back the Private Selection Cookie Dough ice cream. We'll share your feedback with our product teams for review. Have a wonderful day!

Next time I get asked for a tip I have some questions before I decide how much: 1. How many dollars worth of tips do you get in a day? 2. How many customers do you have in a day? 3. If we divide #1 by #2, what would the average tip be? 4. Do people who buy more food typically leave bigger tips? If so, go to 5. 5. What is the average order amount in dollars per customer? 6. What is my order in dollars divided by the average order in dollars? Then what is that number multiplied by the number from #3? Because that will be my tip. Thank you for helping me discover what your service charge would be if you had one. Now why did you decide to do it this way? This is why I avoid places that ask for tips. Too much effort to avoid feeling like I over/under paid the tip!

Tested multiple times and I'm getting that problem as well, consistently. It works on Wi-Fi when I'm home, but if I try to use a voice command right after leaving home, it won't work for a while.
RANDOM ENHANCEMENT REQUEST Any chance the @Tesla infotainment team could figure out a way to improve voice command readiness after the driver enters the vehicle? Currently it seems to take at least 3-5 minutes for the voice command feature to fully initialize (MCU2 & MCU3). This is frustrating as I typically want to tell the car where I need to go within 30 seconds of getting seated. Currently I get multiple minutes of timeouts or connectivity error messages like the one pictured below. Any help here would be greatly appreciated @Tesla_NA!

This actually has boosted my mood and motivation a lot. Started last month.
Replying to @BillyM2k
I boycott whatever made me in a bad mood. Lately it's tipping, phone companies, Google (working on that still), Facebook/Meta, Apple. Anything I am missing?

I finally edited my bio, and I plan on doing this every time my likes or dislikes majorly change, and this will be a thread of those changes. Must people won't care, but... whatever.

That's a lot of miles on the original battery.
Not bad for a vehicle built in a tent

Want me to test this?
Replying to @CYBRLFT @Tesla
Similar story: I haven't really had any lane centering issues, but I did get a new windshield on my Model 3. It was also slightly dirty (as if it was cleaned with a slightly dirty rag, or not cleaned enough on the very upper part of the inside of the windshield in the camera housing. And that reminded me that The only major issues I have had were possibly due to that upper part being dirty. There was a traffic light that was really close to the car and FSD was going to run the red light. Maybe because the wide angle cam needed to see that red light because of the angle and it being so high and close. I might repeat that test a few times and see if it is consistent, then recalibrate and retest, then clean and recalibrate and retest a 3rd time. I will report back here if I do all that.

Okay guys, how do we end tipping culture for good? I'm not a big fan of unclear expectations, and this definitely creates them. I'm also not a big fan of using regulation because we all know how the government messes everything up. Here's my long conversation with Grok about it. nitter.cf/i/grok/share/28Tg9lrkF…

I love that FSD has gotten so good that this is the kind of thing that we're focusing on fixing now. It's a really good sign!

Sesame @sesamecare (the healthcare company online) is scammy. I tried to save money on a prescription by using them to get another year supply of my medicine and they tried to give me a 3 month supply instead for no good reason. Well, I assume the reason is so they can make me pay 4 times as much as I expected to pay. That makes it about the same price as I was paying elsewhere, all things considered. And my expectation was shaped by their own website, which misleads people to think they will get a regular amount of pills that every other healthcare provider would normally prescribe (see image) And then they refused to refund my money that they changed before I could even find out that this was their plan all along, despite me refusing to tell the where my pharmacy was and thereby rejecting the service completely. Customer service was very hard to contact and then they were useless. Luckily, my credit card company was able to refund me, but only after quite a bit of time and anger. Let's boycott them! If we are going to have less regulation in the US, then we need to learn to take matters into our own hands by boycotting and calling companies out! Happy to provide screenshots if you don't believe me! I documented it all. Please reply below if you have similar experiences you would like everyone to know about.
