It works in the dark

Yesterday I mounted my suction cup GoPro mount to the glass roof of the Tesla to capture the new FSD in action. When I first got my Tesla years ago I did a LOT of Tesla content but that has pretty much dried up for the last couple years. I recorded both my drive to and from work.

On the way to work I intervened once to facilitate making a right turn out onto a busy roadway. The car was being cautious, I was being less so, relying on hard acceleration to get me merged in. On the way home the car did so with zero help from me. I did nothing but babysit the steering wheel and pedals, it was very impressive.

I ran to Costco last night and put FSD to it’s first night time test and it again passed with flying colors, taking me from the Costco parking lot to my house with zero interventions. I am very impressed with this latest iteration of full self driving and would love to have it on my car full time but I just can’t pay $200 a month for it, that’s stupid. If Tesla was smart they would drop the price by 50-75% and make up for it with a much a greater buy in rate. Here are the two videos of the trips, there will be more to come.

I got to remove the compression stocking this morning for hopefully the last time and take a normal shower. It’s now a wait and see to determine if the problem veins disappear as they should. I played pickleball yesterday with the compression stocking on which was technically outside what I should be doing but I got through it ok.

Last year I had two entries. The first one was a state of mind dump that was related to my ex. After reading this and realizing everything I allowed to happen after that point I just had to shake my head in disgust. I thought I had finally seen through the bullshit, seeing the error in my ways, or so it seemed. The second post was describing the whirlwind of improvements I had set in motion. The first few months at the new house were very, very busy.
