[SPEAKER_02]: Hey everybody, I'm Zach, and I'm Jesse, watching Tesla Time News episode 658.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, no, you know.
[SPEAKER_02]: Want cheaper car insurance?
[SPEAKER_02]: This isn't an ad, by the way, but lemonade posted if you're driving a Tesla in Tennessee, FSD miles now costs 50% less to ensure with lemonade, autonomous car is now live in Tennessee.
[SPEAKER_02]: So what?
[SPEAKER_02]: So lemonade will connect via Tesla's fleet API to your car with your permission, of course.
[SPEAKER_02]: And every full-sup driving mile will save you 50% if you sign up with their service.
[SPEAKER_02]: Eligible vehicles require AI for hardware, I saw.
[SPEAKER_02]: Intensy is the fifth state, lemonade's 50% off FSD Teslas is also available in Arizona, Oregon, Indiana, and Colorado.
[SPEAKER_02]: Nice.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so obviously you have to sign up and then you're paying per mile.
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's great if you want car insurance, but you don't drive that much, or you drive a lot with full self driving.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's still maybe cheaper than Tesla insurance in Medicare.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, cause it's only like pennies a day if you don't move your car.
[SPEAKER_02]: But if you are driving a lot, you know, obviously it's by mile.
[SPEAKER_02]: Tesla Japan posted this come on cool needs oh I do we have a translation for this yes we do a new flagship store in western Japan is coming to life the Tesla Grand front Osaka will open on August 8th on September 17th we plan to open the Tesla Gallery where you can experience Tesla's latest technology and world and speaking of Japan Tesla Japan also announced this
[SPEAKER_02]: It's there you can now get a power wall three very good is because I said a bunch of Japanese characters power wall three something Japanese flag So it's now available in Japan very good eligible for subsidies very good nice and over to India Where Tesla's Model Y has won the 2026 luxury EV of the year by ABP network auto awards so congratulations I forget that they're in India.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a luxury car there
[SPEAKER_02]: And over to France, where, Tesla Europe Middle East and Africa says 195,000 kilometers of fully autonomous supervised driving has been tested in France, including over 60% on urban and rural roads and no notable incidents.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well that's great!
[SPEAKER_02]: They should have FSD any second now, but you know who doesn't want France to get full self-driving.
[SPEAKER_02]: This guy, Philip Tavero, the Minister of Transport.
[SPEAKER_02]: The French Ministry of Transport opposes a approval of FSD in Europe.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, you know what you have to do my French friends?
[SPEAKER_02]: Write him a polite letter, perhaps, so here's his address.
[SPEAKER_02]: I didn't know he stays at a hotel when he's in Paris, but apparently does, so that's where he lives in Paris.
[SPEAKER_01]: Or you can call the Ministry Switch Board, O-1, 40, 81, 21, 22, and ask for the Minister.
[SPEAKER_02]: Or go to the government website.
[SPEAKER_02]: Here it is.
[SPEAKER_02]: And search for the Minister of Transport or message Philippe on X.
[SPEAKER_02]: There's his address.
[SPEAKER_02]: And tell him, Newsvalon, let FSD.
[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully, he knows what you're talking about.
[SPEAKER_01]: So there's a new boring station in Las Vegas.
[SPEAKER_02]: Good morning, Las Vegas.
[SPEAKER_02]: I want to hear some boring music.
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll be back with the traffic report and weather.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, not that kind of station.
[SPEAKER_02]: This, the new boring company station that just opened at the Sahara Hotel in Las Vegas.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, that's the 12th loop station in Las Vegas.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's crazy that they're still digging.
[SPEAKER_02]: They only have four and a half miles of tunnel.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's open to the public, but I think there's, like, plans for miles of miles.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm excited for when it goes to the airport, I'm excited for when it's the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_02]: I feel like people are now getting to know this and they don't want to stay at hotels that aren't connected to it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Didn't I hear that there's going to be like a taco stand that's going to have a station?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like, they can open a station anywhere that touches above.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's really easy for them to do.
[SPEAKER_02]: So, if you're touching their line, you can possibly get your own station.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: What if it's like your house?
[SPEAKER_02]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_02]: Why not?
[SPEAKER_02]: It's just your own personal little.
[SPEAKER_02]: Exactly, because it doesn't slow down the rest of the line.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's great.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, time for the Savitruck Roundup.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah!
[SPEAKER_02]: This is our track roundup.
[SPEAKER_02]: So remember last week when we told you about the Kede 4 Max 3D printer?
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, our viewer, Burkko 3D just wrote in to say, hey, Zach and Jesse, I'm a huge fan.
[SPEAKER_02]: Just got my $59,000 Savitruck and I'm blown away.
[SPEAKER_02]: The lack of storage bothered me a bit, so I took on a huge challenge and designed in on shape and printed my own Savitruck console.
[SPEAKER_02]: Hope you like it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Feel free to share the link if you find it useful.
[SPEAKER_02]: Just FYI, I'm not promoting anything, and there's nothing to buy or send.
[SPEAKER_02]: and 3D printing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: So if you're looking for a reason to get a 3D printer and I mean this shows you how much room there is in the front console.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean it's like a multi-level storage thing there and I mean I don't know why you need two more cup holders because there are two cup holders right here but they're in an inconvenient spot I will say like if you want to have elbow room if you got a wingspan and obviously for full self-driving you don't need to keep your hands
[SPEAKER_02]: So you can try and put your arms wherever you want.
[SPEAKER_01]: I do see wanting more cup holders I'm curious if people like this sign if they would want to see anything different Yeah, and if you make it by the way, please send in some pictures.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'd love to see it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, Bryco 3d So Colton Garen from out-of-spec noticed something about Cybertruck He said the other day when did Cybertruck get carbon fiber under body pain?
[SPEAKER_02]: handles working on a brand new cyber beast and knows the carbon trays both front and rear right under the motors.
[SPEAKER_02]: And West Moral, cyber trucks lead engineer responded, good eye.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a new material.
[SPEAKER_02]: Testing showed it to be more durable than the aluminum, while being lower weight and cost.
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, slight efficiency improvements since we can better form the areas around the bolts to keep the underbody airflow cleaner than what stamped aluminum allows.
[SPEAKER_02]: Wait a minute, so carbon fiber is cheaper than the aluminum.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, I guess they make some sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, maybe it's scale.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're Tesla.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's true.
[SPEAKER_02]: If you're Tesla, you can do whatever you want.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's so cool that they didn't even announce it.
[SPEAKER_02]: They just started doing it.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think we're up to like 97,000 cyber trucks.
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_02]: So according to NASA's Richard Jones, the deputy director of the commercial crew office, SpaceX has replaced what are called mind-resistant ambush protected vehicles or MRAPs, if you know from the military.
[SPEAKER_02]: They use these at Florida's Cape Space Launch Complex 40, and they replace them with cyber trucks.
[SPEAKER_02]: Jones says the cyber truck provides a speed advantage that lets astronauts evacuate the blast danger area faster.
[SPEAKER_02]: That makes sense.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, the whole point is not, you're not running away from mines here.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're running away from an exploding or potentially exploding rocket, so getting out of town fast is what you need.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm sure the cyber truck beats that thing.
[SPEAKER_01]: Interesting.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you get the stainless steel, you get the speed.
[SPEAKER_01]: All right, so for some more SpaceX news, is this SpaceX's next space port location?
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you to S.E.
[SPEAKER_02]: Robinson, Jr. for these photos and reporting.
[SPEAKER_02]: According to local reports, the final stages of a deal are in place for SpaceX to build the new space port on Pican Island in the Vermillion Parish of Louisiana.
[SPEAKER_02]: And Governor Jeff Landry is expected to make an announcement this month.
[SPEAKER_02]: SpaceX would gain control of the land through a coastal lawsuit settlement in which Exxon mobile turns over property at its own since the 1950s included in the deal our coastal restoration provisions.
[SPEAKER_02]: And so yeah, we're seeing some beautiful coverage of it here.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's about 136,000 acre site.
[SPEAKER_02]: Most of it would be buffer because obviously you want to keep away from people in residential areas.
[SPEAKER_02]: So very similar to like if you've ever been to the space port in Florida, you're like, oh, is that NASA?
[SPEAKER_02]: Like there'll be a big size.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now so and you're like, oh, let's go see in the turn we've done this before.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're like, let's go down and then you're like, oh, there's like gate.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, because it's all buffers so just in case this happens you don't have to be around you don't you don't you don't get hurt So huge site right on the coast just two big advantages two things you kind of need for a space port Mm-hmm kind of away from everybody else Mm-hmm kind of an upgrade from ex on mobile land that just sat there true.
[SPEAKER_02]: You know you get to track people to the space port That's true.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's gonna be kind of close to Houston.
[SPEAKER_02]: It's gonna be kind of close to is it become or become
[SPEAKER_02]: we live.
[SPEAKER_02]: How far has become island from star base?
[SPEAKER_02]: It's about 560 miles by road, obviously a little bit shorter by sea or air.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's going to be exciting if they allow it because I think it's going to be a huge boon for Louisiana.
[SPEAKER_01]: And the question to me is, you know, we've seen recently kind of the plan that they have to fly Starship in B-Cott because obviously it has to come back.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it can't come back the way it came, right, because of orbits has to go around Earth.
[SPEAKER_02]: How are they going to do that with Houston being right there?
[SPEAKER_02]: It's kind of a big population center.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, they won't fly it over Houston.
[SPEAKER_02]: You right.
[SPEAKER_02]: You'd have to come in from the north or something like that.
[SPEAKER_01]: Gulf of America.
[SPEAKER_01]: So on Friday, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman awarded SpaceX Engineer Andrew Berkowitz with NASA's exceptional public achievement award.
[SPEAKER_02]: Jared Isaacman said, Andrew's pioneering research to better understand liquid methane and oxygen explosions is helping enable the next generation of rockets that will return Americans to the Moon establish a sustained U.S. presence on the lunar surface and prepare us for Mars.
[SPEAKER_02]: America's greatest achievements in space are built by extraordinary people whose work often happens behind the scenes.
[SPEAKER_02]: Andrew's contributions will help shape the future of exploration for years to come.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're going to talk about more about this on Patreon bonus stories, because it's a little bit nuanced, but, uh, congratulations, Sandra.
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's now time for Patreon bonus stories and time to announce the first winner of the three July Patreon giveaway prizes.
[SPEAKER_02]: The model life from cooler goes to congratulations to Chris Badpock in Canada.
[SPEAKER_02]: Chris is one of our now, you know, investor club members, and he has been supporting us for six years now.
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you, Chris.
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think it's the second time winning something, which is Chris.
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you're like, well, George North, it was six years ago that he actually won something.
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't even remember what it was.
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even know either.
[SPEAKER_02]: It was not a front cooler because the model I didn't even exist yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, six years ago.
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe just Jason had the front cooler.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, they didn't.
[SPEAKER_02]: And we'll announce our other two July Patreon giveaway winners in upcoming episodes, a stay tuned to see if you won.
[SPEAKER_01]: And we have four great prizes that we are giving away this August over on Patreon.
[SPEAKER_01]: And I really good news.
[SPEAKER_01]: It is much easier to sign up for this one.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, thank you for doing that work.
[SPEAKER_02]: So we realized that this was a pain and that a lot of people didn't get down to the bottom Patreon post.
[SPEAKER_02]: So Jesse, you made like a form or something?
[SPEAKER_02]: there's a form so yeah if you support us at the one dollar level you get one chance to win if you support us at the five dollar level you get two chances to win and if you support us at the ten dollar level you get three chances to win and it's all in a nice little google form so it's nice and simple depending on your level you get to choose each possible chance to win how do I find the form the form is pinned on patreon so you need the first post you see so you want to do one thing for the whole month
[SPEAKER_02]: I've kept it a lot simpler.
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on, we're making it easy for that.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's because we're giving away four things.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, what are we giving away?
[SPEAKER_02]: We are giving away the Model Y canopy.
[SPEAKER_02]: Ooh, how many people even thought about getting the canopy?
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, the lights it looks cool.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's really nice.
[SPEAKER_02]: We're giving away another Model Y front cooler because it's summer.
[SPEAKER_01]: We're giving away an EV eject escape connector.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep.
[SPEAKER_02]: And what else is the other thing?
[SPEAKER_02]: The on the road vessel.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yes.
[SPEAKER_02]: So me not a big prize, but it increases your chance of winning that prize because I noticed on the last one on the July giveaway that, you know, a lot of people on the cooler, a lot of people wanted the mattress, but not as many people were voting for the EV jack.
[SPEAKER_02]: So you had a higher chance if you.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm just saying more chances to win everybody.
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm really excited for winners and August.
[SPEAKER_02]: So
[SPEAKER_02]: Head on over to Patreon.
[SPEAKER_02]: Not only do you get Patreon bonus stories and shout outs and the investor club, but you also get four chances to win great prizes.
[SPEAKER_02]: What are you waiting for?
[SPEAKER_02]: It is possible for you to win all four.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's true because that's how math works.
[SPEAKER_02]: What kind of crazy.
[SPEAKER_02]: How could you win all four?
[SPEAKER_02]: Take your three chances.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh no, it's not possible.
[SPEAKER_02]: No, you can win up to three.
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_02]: I forgot.
[SPEAKER_02]: But if you're friend, okay, whatever.
[SPEAKER_02]: Alright, we're back from Patreon bonus stories time for the shoutout, too do we got today.
[SPEAKER_02]: Bob Cab Jeff, Don De Young, Joseph Rogers, Nate Peash, and Vic Lugo.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you so much for supporting us.
[SPEAKER_02]: We can't do this show without you.
[SPEAKER_02]: Alright time for Elon's X's of the week.
[SPEAKER_02]: Steve Dereco said, I made hubgrock.me for finding grock build apps, and Elon said, cool, cool.
[SPEAKER_02]: I mean, all this stuff that you don't even know you need.
[SPEAKER_02]: Jerry says it's mind blowing to me how few people realize that the lives and everything they know will change drastically in the near future.
[SPEAKER_01]: At this point, it should be pretty clear, and Elon said a hundred years.
[SPEAKER_02]: Elon said Optimus will be epic.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, well, we're waiting for it if you want to come on.
[SPEAKER_02]: Demis says SpaceX is star-based currently covers around 1,100 acres and plans to annex over 7,000 additional acres.
[SPEAKER_02]: Elon said best place on Earth.
[SPEAKER_02]: Not the happiest place on Earth.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's Disney land, world, Disney world, world and Florida.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, one of them's the most magical place.
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Happy to get to it, just talking about Disney land, most magical is Disney world.
[SPEAKER_02]: Elon said worth noting that any USAID funding that appeared to have the slightest merit whatsoever for helping people in need was moved to the State Department.
[SPEAKER_02]: Only the funding where they provided no evidence at all for who would receive the money was stopped.
[SPEAKER_02]: Funding was also stopped where the cause described made no sense to be funded by U.S. taxpayers, like cutting off the four skins of dudes in foreign countries at extremely high prices.
[SPEAKER_01]: Crown face emoji.
[SPEAKER_02]: This from 2014, Elon said worth reading super intelligence by Boston, we need to be super careful with AI, potentially more dangerous than nukes.
[SPEAKER_02]: And then you'll on said as I was saying, you'll on said, oh, the irony is too much.
[SPEAKER_01]: How are you going to keep people from taking advantage of that, you know, that deal basically and is there going to be a limit on the number of items that someone can take that are discounted at that level from that essential basket?
[SPEAKER_01]: So our RFP makes very clear that this is a program for New Yorkers to be able to put food on the table, not a program for people to be able to make a quick buck through reselling.
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to pass it over to our EDC Head G-PAC to add some additional details.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so if you're looking at our RFP for the operator, we are looking to make sure that we target New Yorkers, whether it be at sort of a library card, S-C-C-C, and also we manage who's buying and that is focused on every day New Yorkers.
[SPEAKER_00]: We are mindful of that.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so we're going to make sure that we have all the place, all the things in place to make, ensure that that does not happen.
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, this because Mondami is going to be opening up grocery stores, but they don't want just anyone getting into these grocery stores.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because the prices are going to be lower.
[SPEAKER_02]: So they're going to make you show ID.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: So New Jerseyans don't try it.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_02]: Because you wouldn't want to let people in from outside to take your resources.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
[SPEAKER_01]: Everyone knows that Democrats hate that?
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_01]: That's what they've always stood against is letting outsiders take your resources.
[SPEAKER_02]: And what Elon said is what they're doing won't matter, AI and robots will actually deliver the free goods and services that those thieves pretend to offer while actually stealing from others.
[SPEAKER_02]: Mondami is a thief and a liar plain and simple.
[SPEAKER_02]: Gagger Capital said we don't want non-citizens to abuse our system, so you need valid ID to buy milk.
[SPEAKER_02]: Recaring ID to vote is racist and sexist.
[SPEAKER_02]: God's sod said the cognitive inconsistency is breathtaking.
[SPEAKER_02]: Elon said AI is a supersonic tsunami, so that was back in 24 when people said it so over.
[SPEAKER_01]: Sean McGuire said many of my close friends and loved ones don't understand this yet.
[SPEAKER_01]: Elon said same.
[SPEAKER_02]: He also says breaking the free press has uncovered that a former Zoron Montgomery campaign videographer called America the fourth Reich dismissed the Yuger Genocide SCIA propaganda and said Elon Musk is a valid military target.
[SPEAKER_02]: Elon said if they come after me, I will come after them and finish the job.
[SPEAKER_01]: Damn, oh, oh, right because he's a billionaire.
[SPEAKER_02]: Right, uh, trilliner.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, not any more.
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, not any more, folks.
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, it's after some new super chargers.
[SPEAKER_02]: What do we got this week?
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 27 in Poland is the eight stall in strikeout Poland.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now, is that strikeout looking or strikeout swing?
[SPEAKER_02]: We're 108, nearly the 12 stall in Foyano, De La Chiana.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 75 in Maryland is the eight-stall in Baltimore, number 12 in the Czech Republic, and LaVosci, Czech Republic.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 276 in France is the seven-stall in Vosso-Mara France.
[SPEAKER_02]: What's up with all the odd numbers stalls in Germany and France?
[SPEAKER_02]: Is it something to do with their electrical greater sun?
[SPEAKER_01]: Sir, problem with the Earth's gravitational pull.
[SPEAKER_02]: I need to know more.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 11 in Ireland, the eighth stall in Wicklow.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 118 in Taiwan is the sixth stall in Taichung.
[SPEAKER_02]: An expansion from eight to 16 stalls in Castello, Bronco, and Portugal.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 90 in Washington is the 12th stall in Isekwa, Washington.
[SPEAKER_02]: The sixth stall in Chongqing, China.
[SPEAKER_02]: Another sixth stall in Chongqing, China.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 224 in the UK, a four-stall EV on the move in telford.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 249 in Florida is the eighth stall in Obedeo, Florida.
[SPEAKER_02]: The three-stall in Nanjing, China, the four-stall in Wuzhu, China, the three-stall in Beijing, China, the three-stall in Shanghai, China.
[SPEAKER_02]: Another three-stall in Shanghai, China.
[SPEAKER_02]: And number 2,789 in China is the three-stall version four in Suzu, China.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 158, Australia, the four-stall in Newstead, Queensland.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 232 in Texas is the 16-stall version four in Houston, and eight-stall version four in Urshinburg, Germany, and expansion from 28 to 36-stall's version three-stall's in Guestor, Germany.
[SPEAKER_02]: Ah, see, they're listening to me in expansion from 9, which is odd to 18 stalls in Gassen France.
[SPEAKER_02]: But that's just doubling 9.
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_02]: Hmm.
[SPEAKER_02]: You're just doubling an odd number, which makes an even number.
[SPEAKER_02]: But then if you double it again, it's still even.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how math works.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 327 in Germany is the three-stall in Souder-Lugum Germany.
[SPEAKER_02]: T, three-stall odd again.
[SPEAKER_02]: That's weird.
[SPEAKER_02]: Number 51 in Indiana, the 12-stall in New Albany, Indiana.
[SPEAKER_02]: And number 47 in South Carolina, number 3,183 in the United States, and 8,850 in the world, is the Forstall version 4, presented by the Island Center in Isle of Poms, South Carolina, and take a look how pretty those are.
[SPEAKER_02]: Isn't that beautiful?
[SPEAKER_02]: It's so cool that they made the superchargers have an inside or have a middle, and now we get to print really pretty stuff on it.
[SPEAKER_02]: I think they should all have that.
[SPEAKER_02]: They should all have that.
[SPEAKER_02]: They should hold local contest, local artists, and make some cool stuff about the local area.
[SPEAKER_02]: I love that idea.
[SPEAKER_01]: VPS Special Operations, Jesse, or you make people advertise on it, so it's lose diner.
[SPEAKER_01]: Which would also be fine.
[SPEAKER_02]: Thank you so much to join us today.
[SPEAKER_02]: Everybody, don't forget to head over to Patreon next for your bonus stories and enter for your chance to win four great prizes this month.
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see you on Thursday, everybody.
[SPEAKER_02]: Now you know.
