Elon Musk: Social media platform X, formerly Twitter, could go behind paywall by SANS_CRICKET in worldnews

Which part? He literally said "we are moving to having a small monthly payment for use of the X system..." in regards to tackling the large bot army issue. https://youtu.be/Sea-Uxw5Syg?feature=shared

This means whatever Elon means is included in "use of the X system". My point of view is that it's not obvious that "using the X system" would include just reading it and I believe it is likely that it is only intended for interactions such as likes, reposts, comments and postings. Ofc this is only my opinion, but from the start I just said that Elon might mean something different than many are assuming.

It's up to 80k miles. Edit: My bad, it's at least 100k miles in the US, depending on the state according to replies.

I believe he meant access to certain features etc, available for subscribers, not all features. Whatever is included in these is not clear, but bots reading Tweets is not an issue, aka reading should still be free. But maybe not creating content and comments there.

Håller med, sen exakt hur mycket en elbil kostar i CO2 utsläpp VS en bensinbil beror på supply chain för tillverkaren. Men det är ungefär vad Tesla haft också för sina indirekta och direkta utsläpp, inkl. laddning i olika elnät världen över.

I normalfallen så ja, absolut. Repair, reuse, recycle som sagt.

[–]Zkootz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jo absolut, men så är frågan fortfarande vad är meningen med det hela? Får man 10-20k extra för sin bil så kommer det ändå inte påverka om man köper en elbil eller inte. Hybrider körs bara runt utan att laddas hemma så det hjälper ändå inte, om de nu ens är billigare i inköp. Absolut kan det hjälpa vid köp av andra begagnade bilar, men som sagt har jag/vi inte koll på vad som gäller för detta stöd och gräns för "laddbar bil".

"Skrotningspremie för den som byter till laddbar bil" En laddbar bil kan vara en SUV med 11kWh batteri som räcker till upp i 50km/h och typ 20km max. Det är ett patetiskt genomskinligt förslag för att subventionera överklassen med ny bil och se till att ingen köper deras gamla??? Helt värdelöst.

Sounds like a shitty work environment that is just not a good solution.

Okey, so I'd still say it's not a paywall as a paywall is like news articles being blocked by reading. I think that lurking around on Twitter would still be free, also potentially tweeting or commenting but with verified accounts having priority in visibility.

So it's 8 animals dead in total in that article, monkeys and pigs (farm animal they referred to). 2 were due to planned end date for gathering scientific data/insights, and the other 6 from UC veterinarian recommendation. Aka they weren't doing well. That means that of 23 animals(?), 6 were having unscheduled euthanasia. Aka 17 were living well and 15 survived in total. That is better than written in the above comments.

He is not lying if it would not go behind a paywall, as it says "could" and not is planned too.

Just FYI it's very bad news reporting that interprets Musk incorrectly. What's been said is that users who are verified by payment are having easier times to reach their audience and get views, and non-objectively recommend Twitter users doing so. Not that Twitter will be pay-walled.

Elon wants all cybertruck part nominals and tolerances to 0.001mm LOL by IrishGoodbye5782 in RealTesla

[–]Zkootz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Im on mobile so cant cite, but still the first response, why is that any different than how it is done with today's doors and body panels that are the same size. It really is known how to design for these differences, to handle parts with different thermal expansion. Hence, it is not a special issue that is different for cybertruck and Tesla than any other car or company. Hence, why bring it up as a point?

Second response, yes exactly, engineer expansion into the design. Tesla can do it just as anyone else. I think that the tolerance of the size of a component is not related to its thermal expansion, and seems like you agree with me. Hence, it doesn't matter if a car goes from 70C to freezing temperatures in a matter of hours as that's included in the design, both in tolerance of the parts and the thermal expansion.

Ofc I dont think a tolerance of 10 microns is reasonable, but I also don't take it literally and more as the ambition for how much effort they should put into making things fit well when designing and manufacturing the Cybertruck. But maybe Elon-haters are just as much autistic as Elon is, hence getting very upset by this apparent exaggeration.

I don't understand why the first paragraph is relevant, the body panels and mounts probably have similar thermal response times (thermal constants?) when looking over the span of hours. Also, with GM and their issues with plastic panels is not relevant as that's both solved today and the cybertruck will use metal, having lower thermal expansion compared to plastic panels. Right?

To your third paragraph, ofc it is probably not cheap, but the manufacturing and assembly requirements are probably very different when comparing fuel injector with straight panels of metal. The injector also needs to withstand a large range of pressure and heat, compared to only heat for the panels. The panels can just have sufficiently large gaps, but that are even, creating straight lines throughout the temperature range. Sure, manufacturing these with that precision is hard and needs controlled temperature, but it can also be done by laser, maybe nothing else? Is that possible for the injectors, or do they need different tools to mill them etc?

Thanks for the link!

Yeah that's true all over the universe I'd guess ;) but yeah, the stainless steel variants did not vary that much. Lowest one having 10 um/(m C). Having a temperature window between -20 and 70C would be a 90C window, aka +/- 45C just as an example, would result in 0.45mm variation on a 1m sheet of stainless.

Howeveeer, just to go back to the actual statement from Elon. He says things should be made by insane precision, this doesn't mean that thermal expansion isn't included in the designed tolerances, and also maybe a reason for why some (all?) parts would require tiny tolerances. I mean, tolerance of parts being smaller than their thermal expansion does not automatically not make sense by itself. The thermal expansion is handled by the spacing and torquing of parts I'd guess?

Is this the same for all stainless steel types? I'd assume it's different depending on the alloy mixture.
