In a post Saturday on X, Musk said: "To be clear, I am NOT taking drugs! The New York Times was lying their ass off."

He added: "I tried 'prescription' ketamine a few years ago and said so on X, so this not even news. It helps for getting out of dark mental holes, but haven't taken it since then."

I had a ‘prescription’ manhattan this afternoon, followed by two prescription margarita with floaters and a half bottle of prescription champagne. Hopefully the other half will get me out of this mental hole.

Sounds like you should top off with some weed and Vicodin.

It doesn't matter, astronauts are not going to be fooled if he makes a push to nudge the thresholds a few percentage points. This is a hard stop because he can't coerce, threaten, or pressure anyone to get on that vehicle. There is no leverage.

Dude, we're going to have a six week reality TV show to find the replacement astronauts that are hardcore and not a bunch of coward ass pussies like the current group.  Got it?

You kidding me? The visionary Michael Bay has already shown us the best place to get new astronauts - oil well drillers, DUH!

Actually he nails it right at 2:30: This was indeed a Full Self Driving Crash.

 

End of argument, he said it, here's that clip cued up, you can stop 2 seconds later.

Can't you fucking defend Tesla until your dying breath on another goddamn forum? You're so fucking annoying, jesus christ.

It was a FSD crash. SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Who knew Operation Weserübung would have such far-reaching implications?  Fucking Norwegians, man.

Man....and they still fucking HATE them some nazis.  The museum at the Akershus fortress is all about "here's how utterly fucky the Nazis were, and here's how much we hated them.  And we executed that fucker Quisling right over there -- get your photo taken on the exact spot where we ventilated the shit outta him!"  So, you know.....going full Nazi when trying to sell them cars is certainly a choice.

I watched the video - I would argue that it POTENTIALLY could absolve FSD as the cause of the crash.

MAYBE

But not fully (because even guy in the video say that it could have been the FSD system doing this).

AND

It really raises another issues with FSD that is a problem 7:10 of the video (until about 7:35) - FSD and Autopilot it sounds like does not give warnings when disengaged inadvertently. He outlines in that clips that the NHTSA did analysis of crashes, there were 43 instances that Autopilot was inadvertently disengaged by the driver and they did not know.

That shouldn't be a thing. If Autopilot (or FSD) are disengaged through the system deciding they should be off, then the car should alert the user. There should never be a debate on the state of these systems, and the user should know OR there should be a log of "WE SOUNDED THE FSD DISENGAGED ALERT". The system just being off is not a valid state.

Yeah I can't think of a good reason for the car not alerting the user.

Because the car alerting the user that the system the user is relying upon just disengaged is WOKE.

Why are you afflicted with the WOKE MIND VIRUS, bro?

Was the driver a man? Maybe the Tesla is female -  and it just assumed that the man knows that she’s not engaged when she doesn’t talk to him or give him the time of day for a while.

"Hey FSD, how are you doing?"

"FINE."

Also listened to Bloomberg Radio.

The system absolutely provides an alert when FSD or autopilot disengages.  There is an audible alarm and a screen notification.  Whether or not a driver notices the alert is another question entirely.

I can see I've given you more credit for being an intelligent person than you deserve. You "breathlessly" ran over here with a yt video that debuted online just yesterday claiming it conclusively disproves something posted here. But you ignored that it's totally inconclusive AND that an EV website -- one historically very pro-Tesla -- wrote an article about the crash you're trying too hard to disprove in which the journalist SPOKE WITH the driver of the automobile. You're completely full of shit.

You either didn't watch the video or didn't understand the data presented.  There is left torque applied to the wheel prior to the accident.  The same torque that was applied to the steering wheel that caused FSD to disengage likely caused the swerve to the left.  Go rewatch 5:05-6:10 of that video. 

The Electrek article talked to the driver.  It did not review the data.  The data and the driver's story don't match.  

The data point to user error with the driver somehow applying left torque to the steering wheel which disengages FSD and steers the car off the road.
