My decision to turn down the Chris Cuomo show was wise at the time and is only growing more wise as time passes.

Fuck the Cuomos. Hosted one hell of a D&D session that night instead.

They said the novelty cowboy hats were oversized, but those look way too respectable.

The Cubs made some high impact moves at the trade deadline that seem certain to affect their playoff chances

For a couple days there, the Cubs were the best team in baseball and nobody can ever take that away from them.*

β€œ.. Within about three minutes of the crash, the Modelβ€―S uploaded a β€œcollisionβ€―snapshot”—video, CAN‑bus streams, EDR data, etc.β€”to Tesla’s servers .. The vehicle then deleted its local copy, resulting in Tesla being the only entity having access.”

2019 – 2024 – Repeated denials and discovery stonewalling
Through years of communications with the police, the plaintiffs and the court through the investigation and later the discovery process for the lawsuit, Tesla never mentioned that it had all the data that explained how Autopilot saw the crash, which everyone was seeking, sitting on its servers for years.

The facts are:

Tesla had the data on its servers within minutes of the crash
When the police sought the data, Tesla redirected them toward other data
When the police sought Tesla’s help in extracting it from the computer, Tesla falsely claimed it was β€œcorrupted”
Tesla invented an β€œauto-delete” feature that didn’t exist to try explain why it couldn’t originally find the data in the computer
When the plaintiffs asked for the data, Tesla said that it didn’t exist
Tesla only admitted to the existence of the data once presented with forensic evidence that it was created and transfered to its servers.

This whole story is insane. Tesla apparently did everything it could to avoid providing the data it had about its Autopilot crash. This is just a snippet and there's a lot more. electrek.co/2025/08/04/t...
