I was curious so I went to look up the average egg price and see the reported price by the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows it is an average of $3.13/dozen as of March 26th, magically down from $8.17/dozen on March 1st. However, the lowest reported price in any state is $6.79 in Virginia. So something is quite fishy.
Edit: This article seems to shed a little more light on things. The wholesale price has dropped but retail prices will lag. Sounds like a drop in egg demand due to high prices and farms getting caught up on egg laying hens and causing the wholesale market to settle down.
Depends what you want to do. They don't require a network connection to operate as a vehicle. So if you don't care about the remote app features (local ones such as lock/unlock still work over BLE), live traffic, streaming music or updates, then a network connection isn't necessary.
If you do want any of those features, then you would need to either get root access to the gateway and infotainment systems to modify the endpoints or take over the C&C server (formerly named "mothership") domains and certificates.
The main things are removing the cellular connection and disabling the connection back to the Tesla services. Back in the old days you could pull the SIM card, root the center and driver's displays, setup firewall rules to block traffic to/from the Tesla servers, and disable the VPN.
This is more difficult with the newer models. You can still pull the SIM, but would need to get creative for root access since it is a continuous game of whack-a-mole between the root methods and patches.
Will certainly be a bummer if they do go under, I really appreciated their serviceability. Have several in the immediate family that have been going for over 7 years at this point though all kinds of calamities. Each time can I just pop out all the components clean/replace as necessary and get it back in service, good as new.
I set the VPN tunnel from the VPS to deny everything to the internal network by default, then put the services that need to be accessed on the allow list in the firewall. So the VPN endpoint from the VPS can only hit the very specific IPs/ports/protocols that were explicitly allowed. There is still the possibility of a compromise chain of VPS->service->container/VM->hypervisor->internal network access, but I feel comfortable with those layers.
You could also setup an IDS such as Snort to pick up on that exploit traffic between the services and internal VPN endpoint if extra security is necessary on top of fail2ban and log alerts on the VPS.
Sadly, a few protests now is nothing in comparison if Harris would have won. The Republican party already had preemptive lawsuits to challenge the election results before election day and the results would have been contended for months. There was a high likelihood of a repeat of Jan. 6th 2021 on Jan. 6th 2025 from right wing milita groups.
I like the sentiment, but that is predicated on there being another election under the same rule set which would allow either party to win. If things come to pass with the unitary executive theory outlined in Project 2025 and the dictatorship desires that have already been declared, makes it unlikely votes will work to change political parties going forward...
Yeah, the EV market is fine, just Tesla sales which have dropped some, lowering numbers for the total EV market. Sales continue to be strong for other EV manufacturers, just one brand slowing down for some strange reason..... Almost like someone has started to alienate their core customer base....
Knowing Elon's past history with wording, he is probably actually donating $45,999,999.99 or $45,000,000.01 just to say the media reports are not true. He never denied donating money, just disputed that exact figure.
My prediction is that as pressures mount on all industries, especially food supplies, we'll start to see large civil unrest leading ultimately to wars which will wipe most of us out first, then famine takes the rest. Agree on a few well off holdouts for a while.
Pretty wild that this house was built in the 1930's.
