Elon Musk: 34:18
Earth as a small blue dot in a fuzzy beam of light."Channeling Carl Sagan. Look again at that dot that's here. That's home. That's us. On it, everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you've ever heard of, every human being who ever was lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering. Thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines. Every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every King and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer. Every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every Saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there. Automotive dust suspended in a sun beam.

Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all those vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. The earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There was nowhere else, at least in the near future to which our species could migrate."

Tesla (TSLA) stock down after electric pickup unveiling — market is missing the point - Electrek

"...Tesla figured out some significant cost improvements in both battery costs and manufacturing a vehicle with this new exoskeleton structure...
...Right now, the cheapest vehicle that Tesla is selling with a 100 kWh battery pack is the Model S Long Range, which costs $80,000.

The Cybertruck starts at half that price."


A few too many rounds: Tesla CyberTruck window shattering
"The leading theory is that the repeated launches of the steel ball against the window led to microfractures, which compromised the glass leading to its ultimate shattering on stage."

Elon Musk on Twitter: "Franz throws steel ball at Cybertruck window right before launch. Guess we have some improvements to make before production haha. https://t.co/eB0o4tlPoz" / Twitter
