Hey everybody, I'm Zach. And I'm Jesse. You're watching Test the Time News. Episode 409. On Now You Know. Thank you to Birch for sponsoring this video. Their 4th of July sale is live now, so be sure to head to our link in the description to check them out. Birch makes mattresses that are crafted with responsibly sourced materials like organic cotton, organic wool, and 100% natural latex. We both sleep on Birch mattresses, and for years, have talked about the difference Birch mattresses made in our sleep and how we feel. Actually, 93% of recent customers would recommend Birch to a friend, and 87% say they saw an improvement in their sleep quality. They also found in the survey that 79% of those who suffered from back pain with their old mattresses saw a reduction in pain with their Birch mattress. It was important for me to choose a Birch mattress made with organic and natural materials because I can sleep easy knowing I'm avoiding harmful off-gassing that can result from polyurethane foams. Unlike other brands, Birch mattresses do not contain fiberglass, which can be harmful to your health. Other mattress companies use fiberglass as a flame retardant in their products, but Birch mattresses are free of harmful fiberglass materials. Birch has its own manufacturing facility, which is entirely free from products containing fiberglass. Unlike synthetic mattresses, the wool in these mattresses makes it hypoallergenic, both allergen and mildew resistant. The weather is starting to heat up, so it's best to have a mattress that keeps you cool. If you tend to sleep hot, Birch mattresses rely on thermoregulating wool to promote airflow and keep you cool while you sleep. It's great to know that the mattress I'm sleeping on is made with natural and organic materials sourced straight from nature, which are both comfortable and durable. With your Birch mattress, you get a 100-night sleep trial along with a 25-year warranty. And Birch delivers your mattress right to your door for free within the US. It comes rolled up in a box and it's super easy to set up. They also offer in-home setup and removal to make your buying experience as convenient as possible.

Tesla said in Q2, we produced approximately 411,000 vehicles and delivered approximately 444,000 vehicles. Our Q2 earnings call will be streamed live on X on July 23 at 4.30 PM Central. And don't forget that we'll be covering that on in-depth the next day. So we think it's a good idea to look at these numbers visually in context to past quarters. And thanks to MainStreetData.com for this chart of Tesla's vehicle deliveries by quarter. While Tesla didn't beat their Q2 from 2023 of 466,444,000 isn't too shabby. And the market agreed sending Tesla share prices up from $209 before the news to $246 after the news. Now, if Tesla keeps producing about 1,300 Cybertrucks per week, then Q3 could start to see some meaningful Cybertruck contributions to the quarterly delivery numbers. We'll be talking somewhere probably in the 16,000 range. We'll of course be talking more about this on this week's Investor Club Bonus Stories. So head on over to patreon.com/now to check it out. And with Tesla's latest Q2 delivery numbers, if we add up all the vehicles that Tesla has produced since the Model S in 2012, we get over $6 million. 6,227,920 to be exact in the past 12 years. Mathematicians, use this chart here to predict when Tesla will make their 12 million vehicle and tell us in the comments, 'cause I don't think it's gonna take another 12 years. That's not all that Tesla produced in Q2, Tesla also makes these. And don't forget these. That's right, Tesla doesn't just make cars. Tesla also sells large battery storage. In fact, Tesla reported that they deployed 9.4 gigawatt hours of energy storage products in Q2, the highest quarterly deployment yet. Yeah, that's more than twice the 4 gigawatt hours that Tesla deployed in Q1. And that quarter was also a record quarter. I wanna see a chart of that. Alright, well here you go from mainstreetdata.com. Wow, look at that chart. It's off the charts. That's an estimated $3.7 billion of battery storage revenue for Q2 alone. And that is why Elon has constantly said that their energy division could become bigger than their automotive division. This just in from the field, we have a reporter covering the latest Tesla fire to you, Mountain Man Tesla. Hey Zach and Jesse, Mountain Man Tesla here in Rockland, California, the site of the massive Tesla fire as reported on by the news where the headlines read three to five Teslas burn and yet another Tesla fire. And then we're, oh, hold on, I'm getting something right now. Okay, so the fire was started by a gas car parked next to a Tesla, which then spread to the brush and then touched the bumper of a Tesla, but clearly still another Tesla vehicle fire calling from bands from the locals for electric cars. And I'm sure as we dig more into this, they'll find out that a Tesla must have shot a lightning bolt at a gas car, which caused the fire. So back to you guys in the studio. Once again, Mountain Man Tesla on the scene here in Rockland, California. CBS Sacramento said a couple of Teslas caught fire in front of a dealership in Rockland on Wednesday. Viewer video captured some of the flames and smoke. And then of course, X's community note said this is false, a truck caused a bush to catch on fire, which in turn damaged the Tesla. So thank you to community notes and Mountain Man Tesla for correcting everybody on that. And as whole Mars catalog says, actually a gas car that visited the delivery center caught on fire and it spread to two Teslas. But of course, blame it on the EV, even though data shows gas cars catch fire 10 times more often, mainstream media, whatever the truth is, we report the opposite. And Elon said, yeah, wow, great. It is hard to fight this stuff guys, because when we're out there in the field talking about our EVs, it's like, well, I heard me get you on fire. And nobody ever goes like, Oh, really? The Tesla saw it on fire? Let me do more research about that. They don't there you go. Oh, yeah. Oh, I heard that Tesla's do that frequently. So make sure to watch us tomorrow as we're doing a three part documentary on how Elon Musk caused me to go bald. Elon reposted this from Tesla North America. The most American made cars are sexy to honor those who have served our country, members of the US military plus their spouses are eligible for the Tesla military purchase program on a new Model S3 X or Y, not a cyber drunk. Oh, but what's the program? Tesla says to honor those who have served our country. We're offering members of the US military a thousand dollars off the purchase price of the Model 3 Y S and X. This offers available to military veterans, retirees, active duty members, and their spouses. There is no limit on the number of vehicles that can be purchased. Wow. So go buy a million Teslas and get a billion dollars off. Now, although I don't think many people have this over the air software update from Tesla yet, 2024.26 is coming and it has new features. So first up, Tesla has added YouTube music and Amazon music to Apple music tune in and title both YouTube and Amazon music require premium connectivity for $10 a month or an active Wi-Fi connection. So this would be Tesla's premium connectivity of $10 a month. Tesla's also updated parental controls. Tesla says you can now enable parental controls with a pin on your vehicle, set a maximum speed limit and limit acceleration to chill, turn on safety features such as speed limit warning, automatic emergency braking, and forward collision warning, configure night curfew to receive notifications through your Tesla mobile app when the vehicle is driven past curfew. Hmm. What's going on here? Enable parental controls from the vehicle or the Tesla mobile app. So I mean, that's really cool. So now you can set up a driver profile that's specifically for your children to describe your Tesla. So if your kids are like, don't buy a Tesla. This is why Tesla is also adding sub destinations. Now when you enter a navigation destination, you can select a sub destination such as a specific terminal at the airport to get more accurate routing detail. When Tesla is adding weather forecast and air quality, Tesla says your vehicle status bar now shows the local weather conditions alongside the temperature. When air quality is poor, your vehicle also shows an AQI symbol and index value. Tap the temperature on your touchscreen to see details about your local weather forecast such as weather conditions, highs and lows of the day, and the chance of rain requires premium connectivity. And lastly, with the new update, Tesla is adding new ways to schedule charging and preconditioning, saying from the redesigned menu or the Tesla mobile app, schedule charging or preconditioning for your vehicle, you can select a location, schedule a one off, repeat specific times or days of the week, and also control when charging starts and stops. To schedule your charging and preconditioning, tap controls and schedule. Now, interesting data here from Tesla Scope about the number of over the year updates per year. Take a look at this. I didn't know there was this many. Hmm. Did you? No. Maybe like, I mean, isn't that like a new update every three days? Yeah. But I mean, maybe they bundle them all together and that's what we're getting. We're getting bundles of multiple updates. Maybe it's quite a sounding. A lot of really great updated features in there. I'm going to talk about a destructive investing this week that Fisker is no longer going to get any updates for their cars. So that's going to make it hard to drive one of those. We're now getting our first look at a patent that Tesla filed for called controlling environmental conditions in enclosed spaces. Tesla's patent outlines the use of multiple sensors to monitor the vehicle's interior environment. These sensors may include an image sensor, an acoustic sensor, a thermal sensor, a pressure sensor, a capacitive sensor, a radio frequency sensor, or a gas sensor. According to the patent, Tesla suggests employing UV lights and a heating system to perform sanitation procedures inside the vehicle. Now, it wasn't clear to me what tech Tesla would use to sanitize the car, except that the patent mentioned the car would do it automatically. It said it would also drive to an area with Tesla Optimus robots who would aid in the cleaning. This is great news. It shows that Tesla is already thinking ahead of everything that it takes to have autonomous robot taxis. Because of course, when you have people get into your cars, they make messes and you got to clean them up. All right. It's time for the Cybertruck Roundup. Get off. The Cybertruck Roundup. Now, we don't know exactly how many Cybertrucks Tesla sold in Q2, but with a little math, we can probably get close. Now, why would we want to know Cybertruck sales? Because we now have four automakers selling electric pickup trucks in the US, and we'd like to know who is number one. Okay. All right. So Tesla announced that preliminarily, they sold 21,551 other models in Q2. So not the three and the why. So that'd be the S, the X and the Cybertruck and the semi. If we use the mid-April Cybertruck recall of 3,878 Cybertrucks and then the June 6th recall of 11,688 Cybertrucks, we can estimate that Tesla sold about 8 to 9,000 Cybertrucks in Q2. We know that Ford sold 7902 Ford F-150 Lightnings in Q2 and GM delivered 2,196 Silverado EV pickup trucks. Rivian also doesn't break down their sales between their R1T, their R1S and their vans, but we know they delivered 13,790 vehicles in total in Q2, and the R1S and the vans definitely outsold the R1T. So let's assume 4,000 R1Ts were sold in Q2. If these assumptions are correct and please comment down below if you think we're off. Then Cybertruck just became the best selling electric pickup truck in Q2. Beating Ford at number 2, Rivian at number 3 and GM at number 4. This just in their second quarter of real production. Hmm. Hmm. Hmm. I wonder who called that. The Greenfield California Police Department has announced that they will be adding several Tesla model-wise to their fleet and it looks like they're working with upfit Tesla on a Cybertruck police prototype. So they already have a Model 3. Yup. And if you live in Greenfield, please send us some photos or videos of this new Cybertruck. And of course, Elon said, "Cool". Last week we showed you an ultra red Cybertruck, this week little baby who has 23 million followers on Instagram showed off his new candy apple red Cybertruck. That is what I call free advertising for Tesla. But Tesla isn't spending enough money on advertising. And Nick Crews says that Shaq just got a Cybertruck, the only person to make a Cybertruck looks small. And Elon said, "Cool". And I think this is the first Cybertruck that I've seen in this position. What happened? It appears that a Cybertruck carrying four people in Vicksburg, Mississippi overturned on June 29th when it went up that embankment on the left. One person had minor injuries and was taken to an area hospital. The other three walked away. We get this aftermath footage from Vicksburg Daily News. Well, it must have been full self-driving that caused it. Yeah, not so fast. Cybertruck doesn't have full self-driving yet. So it was indeed, probably caused by driver error. Maybe they wanted to go off-roading. Yeah. Upside down. They certainly went off-roading and lost a wheel. So it does show that you can flip the Cybertruck. Yes. But I think that pretty much any vehicle being driven up a thing. And I think that is just physics. I don't know. I'm going to show you how we can go off-roof. Yeah. I think you'd need to have some kind of gyroscopic system to prevent a vehicle from flipping under those conditions. Now our buddy Kyle Conner is reporting that Tesla is offering some current Cybertruck owners to switch out one of their Cybertruck motors for a new drive unit that has, quote, improved efficiency and reliability. Kyle says, "Hmm, Tesla wants one of my drive units in my Cybertruck, won't say no to swap to a new one." Tesla says that the current drive unit is not dangerous. Now, all current Cybertrucks that aren't beasts have two motors and Tesla didn't specify which motor was being replaced front or back. So why would Tesla be doing this? I mean, did they see in the data that an improved motor would be better range-wise? So Tesla is conducting this study of early Cybertrucks, but yeah, then why not include the new motor on new Cybertrucks coming out of Gigatexus and then compare it that way? Why alert everyone that there's a possibly better motor? Right, because now all of our Cybertruck owners are going to want it installed. I was noticing we just did a trip down to Maryland and back, and I mean, fantastic trip in the Cybertruck. But I did notice that the front motor had a little bit of that, would you call it like wine at like 35 miles an hour? And I just wonder if maybe it had to do with noise that they're switching it out or better. Well, how would they get data from the noise study if people don't know that it's a noise study? Yeah, I don't know. Are they going to use the internal microphone of the Cybertruck to try and pick it up? Or maybe they lied. Maybe they got some data from the motor saying it was about to fail and they just wanted to quietly replace it. I don't know. Yeah, let us know what you guys think. We have not received the email yet, so. And thank you to Cybertruck owners club for sponsoring this show. If you want to find out all this information about Cybertruck and more, head on over there. And also they've got the reservation tracker so you can find out where you are in line. So much new content for you guys. As always, over on our analysis review channel this week, we reviewed something a little different. Yeah, it's still technically electric, but it's not an e-bike. Although I would argue it's only legal use is to help when traveling. We're talking about these boxes like the Superbox S5 and the DigiBox D3 that claim they can provide 10,000 movies and TV shows. Are they legal? And how do they work? We're one of the only YouTubers brave enough or stupid enough to talk about them. So check out what we learned over on the now to review channel. Now you want to see if Zach and I can ride our e-bikes up a mountain, then you're going to want to check out the latest episode of our Now We Adventure channel where we e-bike all over the place, including small mountains. Yeah, this may not be the biggest mountain, but still, there's no way that I could have biked up watch you sit mountain on a regular pedal bike. And we were a lot quieter than that Harley motorcycle. Remember that, that rider that passed us and then sat there in the lookout parking lot with the engine running. The tourist noise up here, what I said, the tourist noise up here. Yeah, the view is amazing. We would love it if you checked out some of our episodes, even if you never plan on riding an e-bike or visiting one of the places we ride. It's still an adventure because we never know exactly what we're going to find along the way. And on our in depth over the weekend, we just published our cyber tent setup experience in depth. Yeah, we've shown you the Rivian R1T's tent experience a couple of years ago, and now we thought we should share our cyber tent setup experience. Next week, I'll share my experience talking about the cyber tent actually camping, so be sure to hit the bell notification below and subscribe to now you know if you haven't already. So you don't miss that. I feel like you're going to get a lot more use out of this tent than the Rivian tent. Yeah, I think because the cyber tent sits inside the bed and tonneau cover, so you can leave it in the truck longer. This means that it's more likely to inspire an impromptu camping trip, whereas you really need to plan ahead to mount the Rivian tent. And then the Rivian tent is exposed not only to the elements, but also creates like more drag when you're driving. So it reduces range. Man, what a drag. And while I can kind of handle the cyber tent on my own, it's about 90 pounds, the Yakima Rivian tent is way too heavy for me to move by myself. Yeah. So go check out that video on in-depth. That's really cool. So we've now learned from the paper, a Chinese newspaper, that Tesla Model Y has been approved as a government vehicle in one of China's provinces. According to the paper, recently the Jiangsu government procurement network disclosed the announcement of the shortlisted participants of the 2024 2025 new energy vehicle framework agreement procurement for party and government organs, institutions and group organizations in Jiangsu Province 3, which showed that the Tesla Model Y has entered the Jiangsu provincial government's new energy vehicle procurement catalog. So you might be like me and be like, so what? It's just one province of China. That would be like if one state like Rhode Island approved Teslas for government vehicles. Well, Jiangsu Province would be like Rhode Island if Rhode Island had 85 million people and was the richest state per capita. Oh, so this is a big deal. I think so. Tesla is the only foreign-owned automaker on this list. And just since this announcement from the Jiangsu government, several state-owned enterprises in Shanghai have begun purchasing Teslas as government vehicles as well. Because don't forget, Tesla's being made in China made with lots of local supplied parts means that Teslas helped the Chinese economy. This signaling from the Jiangsu government could open the floodgates. I mean, imagine if all of Chinese governments, federal, provincial and local started buying Teslas as government vehicles. Now, we couldn't find any reliable data for how many state-owned vehicles there are in China. But as of September of 2023, China's motor vehicle ownership reached 430 million units with 18.2 million registered new energy vehicles according to the Ministry of Public Security. The federal US government bought less than 10,000 EVs in 2023 and has a fleet of 645,000 vehicles total. But imagine how many EVs China could be buying as government cars. The US has about 3 million people working for it, so that would be about one vehicle for every five employees. A 2007 study found that more than 50 million people work for the Chinese government. So if we assume a similar ratio, then the Chinese government could have a fleet of over 10 million vehicles. If just 1% were Teslas, that would be over 100,000 Teslas. And I think that a lot of this has to do with the Tesla Supercharger network in China, unlike other vehicles where it's still as difficult to charge because there's so many superchargers. I think the government finally realized, oh, our employees will be able to charge easily. I think this is also another huge thing, which is that the Chinese government has been a little bit standoffish with Tesla in regards to security because it's a car covered in cameras. They act like you could do spying using the car. Most cars, I find, aren't invited inside to the special meetings that are taking place. So I don't know exactly why they think that they would be used for spying since they can't. Well, I mean, the employees could be talking inside the cars. Yeah. It's a possibility, I suppose. But this really shows that they don't care anymore, and they would rather just have a car that works. Exactly. So with delivery and sales numbers in for Q2, Ford has remained in EV second place with 23,957 EV sales in Q2 in the US, up 61% year over year. Woohoo! And Ford's fastest growing segment, beating Ford's hybrid sales, which were also up 55%, and definitely beating Ford's internal combustion sales, which were down 5% year over year. And all of Ford's electric models did well in Q2. GM came in third with 21,930 EVs delivered in Q2, one of their best EV quarters. So close, GM. Yeah. GM has been selling new EV models like the Chevy Blazer, the Equinox, the Silverado EV, all hitting the market this year. The Chevy Blazer EV sold 6,634, the Equinox sold 1,013, and the Silverado EV sold 2,196. But I do want to put Ford and GM EV sales in perspective. Now while we don't know exactly how many Tesla's were sold in the US and Q2, because Tesla doesn't break down their sales numbers, we can estimate based on the total numbers sold of 443,956. So about 100,000 were sold in Europe, and about 200,000 were sold in Asia if historical data holds true. So that would be about 140,000 Teslas sold in the US and Q2. So these are rough numbers, but you can see that Tesla is way out in front compared to Ford and GM in the US. I mean, that would be about six times more EV sales than either of them. Now as of last Friday, the European Union has begun provisionally terrifying. Is that a word? Okay, placing tariffs on Chinese made EVs. But the EU already had a 10% tariff on Chinese imports. Correct. The new tariffs will be in addition to that and are different for each brand. So for instance, here are the tariffs on the Chinese Big 3, BYD, Gili, and SAIC. Then you've got companies like Tesla and BMW that cooperated in EU's investigation of whether China was subsidizing and they got an additional tariff of 20.8%. And what about the companies that didn't cooperate? They got an additional 37.6% tariff. You said that these tariffs are provisional? What does that mean? These new tariffs will go into effect until member states finalize their implementation through a vote. So the first vote will take place in about two weeks. The whole process should take about four months. In that time, I think the hope is that China will see that the EU is serious and that they can come to some better agreement. So this is kind of weird. I mean, one of the most popular Chinese-made EVs imported into the EU is the Tesla Model 3, which is made at the Shanghai Gigafactory. Right now, let's say in Denmark, a rear-wheel drive Model 3 costs $299,990 Danish croner. That's about $43,596. So that includes the 10% import tariff that was already there. But now, if I lived in Denmark and I wanted to buy this rear-wheel drive Model 3, I'd have to pay an extra $9,000. No, you'd have to spend an additional $62,396 croner. By the way, the Quicksilver color, the highly pigmented metallic paint with 13 layers, is now available in Giga Shanghai supplied markets for about $1,650 extra. Quicksilver used to only be available from Giga Berlin. So does this mean that the Model 3 Quicksilver is now available in Europe? I think so. Europeans, let us know in the comments if you've either seen them available or if you've seen any driving around. But yeah, so this new tariff hopefully will just be temporary. I think that's why it's not showing up on Tesla's website yet. Let us know, Europeans, if you're starting to see the effects of the tariff there. And this would only be for Model 3s imported from China. This wouldn't be for Model Ys made in Giga Berlin. Yes. Well, and that leads to our next story. Tesla has received approval from the Brandenburg State Environmental Agency for its Giga Berlin expansion plans. Giga Berlin currently has an annual capacity of 375,000 Model Ys. With the expansion, Tesla plans to increase the production rate to 1 million cars annually. So if the EU keeps these new tariffs on Chinese-made EVs, that would push Tesla to start producing Model 3s at Giga Berlin, now that Tesla got that expansion approval. It seems likely, right, because then Tesla would be able to bypass the tariff. And not only the new tariff of 20%, but then the old tariff of 10%, like that's a huge price cut. And we should note that this expansion is for the existing site and will not include clearing the forest where the protesters are currently living. Yeah, the expansion will include a new asphalted logistics area for new cars with a multifunctional tent from which the expansion of the factory will be coordinated. Also, on the north side of the pressing plant, Tesla will build new stairwells and access roads. And Tesla will be installing solar panels on some of the building's roofs. Next up is our buddy Will from Tesla Jigsaw, who's going to show us something new he's learned about his Model 3. Take it away Will. Hi Zach and Jesse, that was an unknown side-effect of removing the rear bench to make my Tesla Model 3 have a fold flat bed, so we can sleep in it in a bit more comfort. I had no idea I was about to unleash a spaceship, I urge you, follow this simple guide to removing that rear seat base and go for a spin. And additionally, if you have a Tesla Model 3, you can now sleep in extra flat bed comfort. Here's a quick guide on how to whip it out. Yeah, I've found a latch that you push that way and it releases it. The same latch on the other side, I've just lifted both the bench parts up here, I've got to just gently prize this out, I'm going to find some wire harnesses that I can unclip. Yay, you've done it. Okay, that's come out really easily. And now, the entire bench can be removed. Now we have a flat bed, fantastic. It's perhaps wise not to poke around too much under here, these are high voltage cables sat underneath a block of foam that just sits on top. And on this side, the connections for the 12 volt system. Whilst the bench is out, might as well give it a hoover, you might find your coin or two. If you remove that back bench, you get the most amazing spaceship sound from your Tesla. Listen to this. Hahaha, absolutely brilliant. The idea of adding synthetic sounds to your electric car just seems ridiculous, but to hear the whine of the actual electric motor, that's fantastic, love it. I can't believe this car keeps getting better and better. I now have fold flat seats so I can go camping in here. I have the most terrific sound now I've removed that bench. This car just keeps getting better and better the longer I have it. I've just made a five year review video about my Tesla Model 3, check it out sometime at Tesla Jigsaw. Thanks guys, back to you. Thanks Will, super fun and educational as always. Everybody go subscribe to Tesla Jigsaw. I didn't know you could take the seats out like that, I didn't either. I thought I'd need a wrench and a knife and I'd never get the seats back in. Yeah. Alright, it's time for SpaceX News, Starman, take it away. Welcome back to the Starman Report, I'm Eli Burton, your host. And before we get into this week's news, I have a Starman update for you. If you live in the Los Angeles area, mark your calendars for August 3rd. Real life Starman will be at the Tesla Santa Monica store on August 3rd from 1 to 2 p.m. doing comic book giveaways, autograph signings, and photos. Free copies are limited to the first 500 recipients. So if you are in the area, come down and get this awesome piece of Tesla, comic, and space history. Now, on with the show. This week, the Chinese company Space Pioneers conducted another test of the Tianlong 3 rocket. And what was supposed to be a simple static fire on a test stand turned into an accidental test flight. I'm not sure. According to Space Pioneers, the stand they conducted the test on was rated for only 600 tons of thrust, while the rocket they were testing was capable of outputting 820 pounds of thrust. Only in China would you put a rocket on a test stand that was too powerful for said test stand. And the fact that no one was hurt was lucky because the closest village was only half a mile away. Despite these setbacks, not all is going poorly for China's space program. The 6 Chinese robotic exploration mission to the moon, the Changi 6, ended in a massive success for the China National Space Administration. On this mission, they brought back a sample from the far side of the moon, which is a first in the history of space flight. The return stage touched down among Golia on June 25th, carrying 1,935 grams of lunar regolith, lunar regolith being the term for the moon's version of topsoil. And another win for the CNSA this week. On July 3rd, it was announced that Kazakhstan has joined China's ILRS moon base program, and the arrangement further advances China's lunar exploration plans and development. If it hasn't already become clear from the last few Starman reports, the space race is on. China is working as fast as they can to get to the moon and begin occupying resource-rich territory.

It's set on X this week that the next Starship test flight should take place within four weeks. This puts Flight 5 taking place at the end of July or early August. If all goes well, this test flight will add a new element of excitement. SpaceX plans to fly the booster back to the tower and help catch it with the aid of the launch tower's chopstick arms. Once successful, this strategy will increase Starship's flight cadence, because it will allow the booster to be inspected, refurbished, and relaunched more rapidly. Well guys, that's all for this time, and I want to thank you so much for watching this week's episode of the Starman Report, and I look forward to having you back for more of the most exciting news in space. Thanks Eli, and if you aren't going to be in the LA area, you can get your adventures of Starman over at shadowovermaris.com. And with a little bit more SpaceX news, Alex posted this kind of surprise that no one at SpaceX has cobbled together some kind of heat shield tile extractor tool. There's an opportunity to speed up the removal of the tile, but also to avoid damaging the three stainless steel clips that hold the tile. Elon says you're right, we're working on simple tooling to make this fast and repeatable. Isn't it funny that the key towels are so soft that you can just punch through them? Yeah. You get they hold up to heat. Yeah. Alright, it's time for Into the Future, sponsored by our friends at Henson Shaving. If you want to get an amazing Henson razor and get over 200 shaves for free, you can use our discount code when checking out, use code Now You Know, and you'll get those 100 blades for free, and they're double sided, so that's 200 shaves with a brand new razor. All right, let's go into the future for a minute, shall we? This is after all Into the Future. Okay, how far into the future, are we? Let's say 10 years, all cars on the road are electric and can you smell that? What the air, it's so much sweeter. It's so much cleaner. Well, yeah, I mean, no tailpipe spewing PM 2.5 and knocks. Yes, true, but also way less car fires, less car fires. How come? Well, right, because the internal combustion engine cars catch on fire 61 times more often than electric cars do. And you know, a lot of people tell us when we show them our EVs, they say, well, I wish that this Tesla Cybertruck came in a hybrid. And to that, I say, did you know that hybrid cars catch on fire 139 times more frequently than all electric cars do, so that I don't think you want to hybrid. There were 174,000 highway car fires in the US in 2021, with 650 people losing their lives. When EVs replace ICE cars, there will statistically be less than 3000 car fires and less than 10 deaths. This data on car fires, by the way, is not from some EV site. It's from Kelly Blue Book's new study, electric vehicles involved in fewest car fires that came out in 2022. And thank you to Alex Fier's post. Share this with that person who can't stop talking about EVs catching on fire. And if you want to share this story with someone, but you don't want to share the whole one hour long episode of Tesla Fine News, you can head on over to our Now You Know Clips channel where we chop this up into bite-sized clips, and you can send them just this. And then you can go ha, told ya. All right, it's time for Going Green. Case CE has just introduced its latest fully electric model, the 12 EV. It's a 3.8 ton compact wheel loader with a 1.5 ton capacity. It has a 23 kilowatt hour cobalt free lithium ion battery and a 17 kilowatt motor for the wheels along with a 22 kilowatt motor that powers the hydraulic systems. It can be run for up to six hours of continuous operation. It can charge overnight via 220 volts, level two, or in one hour using DC fast charging of I'm guessing a 50 kilowatt charge. This is the third all electric machine that Case has introduced. And if you have any experiences with electric machines like this one on your job sites, please shoot us some video and send it over to hello@nowyouknowchannel.com. And thank you. And thank you to the guys at EVject.com. If you're charging and you want to be able to get away quickly in case something goes wrong, this is the only way to do it. This is the EVject escape connector. And you may ask, how does that work? Well, all you have to do is plug this in and then plug in your charger. And if anything weird happens while you're parked and somebody walks up to the car, normally the only way for you to drive away would be to get out of the car, unplug the car, get back in your car, and then drive away, which doesn't really work if somebody's at your window. So with this little amazing piece of technology we'll allow you to do is simply stop the charge, run it and drive, and drive away. You can get yours at EVject.com and if you use our referral code NYK, you can save 50%. That's right, half off for our viewers with the code NYK at checkout. All right, time for sunspots. So grid scale storage continues to advance ahead of projections. How about this chart here from the US Energy Information Agency? Grid is actual storage deployment in gigawatts. Blue is the annual energy outlook projection from 2023. Wait, we should be at 30 gigawatts of grid scale storage this year, even though it was projected to take until 2030? Yep. Imagine where we'll be by 2030. Now we talked about this last week, but that was the IEA, the International Energy Agency. This week we're talking about the US Energy Information Agency, the EIA. It's confusing, I know, but I have an easy to remember mnemonic. Okay. Just remember this. They're always wrong. Wrong. As long as you remember that, it doesn't matter if you remember IEA or EIA. They're always wrong. Yeah. So wrong. Easy to remember. Stay. Like with wind capacity. Look at this. Red is actual wind installed in gigawatts. Now look at each of those dotted lines. That is what was projected in different years. Now is this the IEA or the EIA? It doesn't matter. You just have to remember, they're always wrong. Exactly. I mean, look at this graph though. Look at the 2015 projection and look at 2022. It's below 2021. And even 2023's projection is going to be wrong. They just don't want us to know that sustainable energy from the sun and the wind is really the answer. Going back to grid scale storage, this is what they projected just four years ago. Wait, the dotted light green line is from the 2020 projection? It says that we won't have 20 gigawatts of grid storage until 2050. And yet we have that today. Then they seem to have woken up and got way more exuberant about their projections last year. But they're still going to be wrong because that's linear and we're going exponential, baby. Exactly. You don't even want to see their EV projections. No, I do. I do. It's just going to make you mad. No, I won't get bad. Let me see. Okay. You asked for it. There's a vehicle sold per year. Look at their 2021 projection. They thought it was going to take another 20 years to sell as many EVs as we're sold last year. So is this the EIA or the IEA? Remember, it doesn't matter. They're always wrong. Okay. Wow. And if you're like, oh, but the blue line, you know, the solid blue line looks good. Look, keep in mind that the blue line doesn't include the actual red line. Yeah. Okay. It doesn't include that. That's just where that was their starting point from that year. Yeah. Boneheads. Yes. They don't know what exponential looks like. We're trending exponentially. Salkon, please reach out to them and teach them exponential curves. Exponential. Function. Well, we're too busy talking about rolling averages and hey, if you'd like to get solar on your roof or batteries in your home, talk to our friends at EnergyPal, they know all about the tax rebates and who's the best installer in your area and they'll do all that work for free. Let them know that Zach and Jesse sent you. All right. Time for our video contributor stories. Remember, we need your stories. That's what makes the show awesome. Send them to us two minutes or less. Shoot them in landscape with good audio, no music and send them to hello@naynochannel.com. What do we got this week? Jess. We have Joe Barletta with Smart Charge America showing us a difficult and expensive EV charger installation. Hey, Zach and Jesse, Joseph Barletta here with Smart Charge America. Just wanted to kind of bring to you all one of our setups that we've done in a deeded, high-rise downtown condo parking facility. You can see this is a charge point CPF 50 setup, it's a dual port setup. The actual owner of the units, he actually owns both stall number 18 and 19. Now, the difficulty in putting together a project like this is the fact that this is basically not a part of the facility's community charging that's going to be on another floor. This is individual deeded condo restricted parking charging. Now, you can see the gateway up here, that's where the antenna and the cellular SIM cards are that communicate with the network that operates both of these chargers. Now, both of these chargers are running 40 amps apiece so the gentleman's getting 32 amps continuous going to both of his vehicles. One of the things that we'll have to realize is if you follow the conduit line here, you'll see that it's going to our electric box here. It's basically being fit from ground level, which is on floor one. So this is how we pull our lines from parking garage floor to floor. We have to core, firecock, secure, all of that bracketing to and from. So if anyone basically out there is wondering what all does it take for me to get a charging station installed in a deeded high-rise condo parking area, it's a lot. It's not the normal cost of a typical charging installation. This particular charger ran us about $25,000 all-in that the particular owner had to pay for this. That is a lot of work. So this is why it's so important that buildings start to adopt EV readiness inside their building codes in order to save roughly around 90% of the cost of doing this. We're able to do it if we're able to do it in the pre-construction phase. So I just wanted to give you a heads-up on this. This is one of our setups. Why don't you guys take a look at it just a little bit more in depth, but this is what it looks like. Appreciate all the help, guys. We love you, and now you know, cheers. Thanks, Joe. Yeah, just a plug here for Joe and his fabulous team at Smart Charge America. If you were looking to have an EV charger installed at your home or business, you definitely want to check out Smart Charge America because these guys are the pros. And if you're building a building, yeah, let's do it first and not have Joe do all that hard work later. All right, time for our Patreon bonus stories. We've got disruptive investing this week. We've got investor club bonus stories. And of course, as always, for our patrons, if you join us for as little as a buck a month, you get all of our Patreon bonus stories. We'll see you there. All right, we're back from our Patreon bonus stories. It's time for the Patreon poll. Would you buy a used Fisker for $2,500? Jesse, would you? Whoa. $2,500? How is that possible? You know, because Fisker just went out of business, we're going to talk about that on disruptive investing and the used ones and the ones that were damaged are selling for $2,500. So let's see what our patrons say. 2/3 said no way. Well, you can't really get them fixed. No way. You can't. So interesting. Yeah. It's kind of a drive it till it dies. Kind of situation. Which could be faster than you think. $2,500 for a used car? I mean, you are getting the battery pack and the motors, so if you-- Worst case? If you can just use those. Worst case, you drive it till it dies, tow it back home, and then it's a power wall. And then you do the Mike Mulligan situation and you take the batteries out and you power and also them. That would only take a few $1,000 in extra time and work. And I suppose out in the yard, you could put the body and have the kids play on it as a play star. Perfect. Perfect. All right. It's time for Elon's Xs of the week. And Lex Friedman says some days, I feel like a loser. This is not a post asking for pity. I'm just being honest about the ups and downs of life in case someone out there is feeling the same today. And might read these words. We're in this together. Keep going. Keep trying. Keep creating. And Elon said same. Elon said that almost the entire media repeated the same lie with the exact same word is disturbing. The legacy news is not merely fake, but also un-originally fake. If you want to know the truth, it's on X. What was the lie? Sharpest attack. Siobhan Zillis says, do people who do well on four or five hours of sleep think the rest of us are fundamentally broken? Elon says, I don't believe anyone is operating effectively with four hours of sleep on average. He does it all the time. Elon says, join X AI to build maximum truth seeking AI with the best sense of humor, how June started and how it's going. Come cook with us at X AI and X if you're building and running the biggest computers in the world. And Elon commented on this, the First Amendment is out of control opinion essay on New York Times. New York Times, he says, is attacking your freedom of speech. Alex says the German Cam Institute published a study claiming that BMW is the most innovative automaker globally. The main reason they list BMW scores with a wide range of high level innovations in various fields of technology, worlds first, such as the level three traffic jam pilot. And then Elon says, dumber als shimmer brought, which means dumber than moldy bread. I love that Tesla's not just number two on the list, it's number 13. John Stossel says, we think our politics are formed by rational analysis, but most artists are Democrats, while most business owners are Republican, that suggests something other than rational analysis is at play. And Elon said, politics are more tribal than people like to admit, just like sports teams. Sam says, now that my Tesla on 12.4.2 drives 99% of the time, I would like a couple of features to get that last 1% and you list them all here. Elon said, safety first then convenience features. Some of this stuff like rolling stop is technically illegal, so NHTSA gets upset, but 99% of people do it. He says, Apple and Microsoft, when they see each other at the next open AI board meeting, Elon said, the fake board, they didn't even tell the board when GPT for launched. Sir Doge with the coin says, seriously, why haven't humans gone back to the moon? That's quite literally one of the top five things we've ever done as a species. And Elon said, soon, physics in history says, what's the most challenging physics concept you've ever learned? Elon said, how socks and umbrellas defy conservation of mass. As they disappear, it says, yeah, yeah. Nane said, Waymo's non-existent driver rolling down the window and pulled over by Phoenix PD is wild. Elon said, straight out of Silicon Valley show, the comedy writes itself. I love the cop talking to a computer like it's normal. Yeah, it's also high in Phoenix PD. So your car here drove into oncoming lanes of traffic. Okay, I'm going to go ahead and take a look at that right now. Gally says, I wonder how fast new car sales will plummet once the Tesla cyber cab launches. Elon said, that is indeed the question. Sorry, Merritt says, every Tesla megaback battery has the words made on Earth by humans stamped on it. Stephen Mark Ryan says, wait till the made on Mars by Optimus versions. Elon said, going to happen. Curiosity says, if you could name the first city on Mars, what would you name it? And Elon said, bar, I thought he said terminus last week. He did say terminus, bar, like a bar. Mars bar, bar, Mars. And then Elon shot this video of the Tesla Gigafactory Supercomputer cluster. Hey, everyone, happy July 4th, the fireworks in the background, just here at the Tesla Gigafactory. We're finalizing the construction of the supercomputer cluster here, which is at the south extension. And we will have this online in a few months. I guess he was there over the July 4th weekend. Greg says, I hate to admit it, but Mark Zuckerberg has swagger. Elon says, may he continue to have fun on his yachts? I prefer to work. David Sachs says, right wing conspiracy theory, suddenly acknowledged as true, Biden is senile. Democrats engaged in a massive cover-up of this for months. If not years, the Biden presidency is run by an oligarchy. Democrat mega donors, not primary voters, actually chose the nominee. Elon said, obviously. Elon then said, the legacy media are just propaganda puppets. X has the truth. Katherine Brodsky says, I feel like my sense of purpose is gone. Elon said, have kids. The president says, how soon until AI becomes president? Elon said, not long. Hassan says, Elon Musk has a good heart. Elon says, certainly, try. Speaker Mike Johnson says, the SAVE Act will safeguard our elections by ensuring only American citizens vote in federal elections. Elon says, those who oppose this are traders. All caps, traders. What is the penalty for traders again? Elon won't say, when is there not one, just one? Even attempted prosecution of that Epstein, Bill Gates, and Reid Hoffman come to mind client list. AI does their duty or the case for an entire departmental reset or abolishment is strong. Lucas says, one of the best robots, it's from one of the best all-time movies, "Interstellar." Do you remember TARS? A developer called Charles Diaz has created a fully functional TARS replica using Raspberry Pi. Elon says, maybe Tesla should build it. It would be so cute. Sarah Theistra says, the Aurora Supercomputer located at Illinois is capable of one quintillion operations per second, is the size of four tennis courts, is the most powerful AI computer on Earth and will soon map the human brain. Elon said, small potatoes. Whoo. Natalie says, who's our president? Elon says, whoever controls the teleprompter is the real boss. Elon then said, real question, does American need a president since we obviously haven't had one for a while, LMAO. Joe says, why would any lawmaker be against proving US citizenship to vote? Elon said, great question. Tim Poole says, what? Why? Who disagrees with this? Elon says, because they want to cheat. Doge designer says, 6.15 AM, I asked my friend on WhatsApp to help me find a bag. 8.55 AM, I started seeing ads for bags on Instagram. If WhatsApp messages are end-to-end encrypted, why am I seeing ads for a bag out of the blue? Elon said, because it's spyware. Car dealership guy says, to the rumor is that Elon hired Uber's founder, Travis Kalinek, to advise for a potentially run Tesla's upcoming Robotoxie division, can you imagine? And Elon said, false. That's why it's a rumor. Justine says, some impressive early results coming out of live portrait, a new model for face animation, upload a photo and reference video and combine them. And Elon says, taking catfishing to a whole new level. And then talking about that rumor about Travis Kalinek, Peggi says, if this rumor becomes true, then Tesla's stock would easily surpass $400 after $8.8. Easily. And Elon says, all that matters is improving Tesla's self-driving AI, such that miles between interventions is much greater than a human. Libs of TikTok says, they arrive and rented U-Haul's all matching, never any arrests, and the FBI can't seem to track them down. Does anyone still believe this obvious eye up? Elon says, will be child's play to follow these trucks. Elon then said, SpaceX will colonize Mars. The fundamental question is whether Earth's civilization can maintain its technology level long enough for the colony to grow on its own, even if the supply ships stop coming. If yes, then humanity will pass the single planet Fermi Great Filter. Stephen King says, Joe Biden has been a fine president, but it's time for him in the interest of the America he so clearly loves to announce he will not run for reelection. And then Elon said, even Stephen King is voting for Trump. Which is a joke. Alright, it's time for Community Mail Time. Remember, share your stories, photos and videos with us at hello@nowyouknowchannel.com. We start off with this video of a Chick-fil-A Autonomous Delivery Vehicle in Austin, Texas. Hey Zack and Jesse, Joseph here with Smart George America, downtown Austin, Texas, right and around. I saw this little Chick-fil-A mobile. I've seen, I've heard about it, apparently it's a little Autonomous Chick-fil-A delivery. Pretty cool. I mean, cool is not the word that comes to mind. It is interesting, I don't know. Please someone who has ordered show us the actual order, like how it works, you know, is it mapped and all that kind of stuff. Glenn sent us this picture of himself with the Cybertruck in Edinburgh, Scotland. Foster spotted the Cybertruck in Seabrook, Washington. CJ saw this customized Model Y in Jackson, Tennessee. Edgar spotted this Cybertruck driving on I-95 in Massachusetts. Is that you? No. No? Oh, okay. That does temp tags. I don't do it. Massachusetts doesn't have temp tags. You're a double-decker bus in Barcelona, Spain. Mugash has spotted this electric motorcycle in their hometown of Kampala, Uganda. Nice. David saw this metallic red Cybertruck in Carly Place, New York. Was that the one we showed last week? I think so. Colin spotted this VW ID5 EV in Kent, UK. Anthony saw this Spider-Man-themed Model 3 at the Crystal River Supercharger in Florida. Mike spotted these red, white, and blue Model Y's in Charlotte, North Carolina. Antonio saw the Cybertruck at Mount Rainier, Washington. And Doug spotted this matte black Cybertruck in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Wow. I mean, is that a good advertisement or what? It's a driving billboard. It's mainly a driving billboard for Tesla, but you can put other billboards on it. All right, so I'm for EV Tip of the Week. Remember, send us your EV tips at hello@nowyouknowchannel.com, and this is our tip of the week. So Zach and I just helped a family member by installing a Tesla wall charger for their new Tesla Model Y, and this made a huge difference in the cost of fueling their Model Y. Yeah, instead of having to supercharge every couple of days at rates that were three or four times higher than their residential electric rate, they now can plug in at home. But our tip goes one step further, and it kind of adds to a tip that we heard about from Mark in Alabama a couple weeks ago. Yeah, Mark talked about how he reached out to his electric utility and was able to get on a new electric plan that offered off-peak charging rates, and he's now saving a bundle. I think many of us have an aversion to calling our electric utility. Please hold for an hour while I eat my lunch. But in many places, there are special rates for EV owners. Also, you can probably do better than the rate you have now, just by doing a little searching. And I know that many of you watching, like Mark, have already done this research and have found some pretty amazing deals, so here's your good deed for the day. No matter where you live in the world, please post a short comment below with where you live, what electric deal you found, and that way your neighbors can also lower their electric rates. We're going to be monitoring the comments and putting all the helpful ones into a basket and the lucky winner will win a portable 300-watt hour battery. So get your calmer points for the day and start commenting. And if someone's comment helps you back to lower your rate, give them a thumbs up and thank them. That's what our awesome community is for. I love you guys. And by the way, we just did it ourselves here in Massachusetts with National Grid. We lowered our base electric charge from 24 cents per kilowatt hour to 13.8 cents per kilowatt hour, and we didn't have to call our utility. We did it online in about 30 seconds. We signed up with Smart Energy for the next six months. That is 100% renewable sources. Nice. Yeah. That's... I think the hack here is that a lot of times you sign up like this and you're like, "I feel good." And you're like, "Well, I'm saving so much money." Six months goes by, a year goes by, you forget, and the rates go back up and you were no longer saving that money. So go check your electric bill today, make sure that you are actually saving what you thought, and if you have to sign up for a new plan, do it. And there's a lot of basically third-party, because smart energy is not National Grid. And so these are companies that want your business. They want to provide you with 100% renewable energy, but they aren't National Grid, and all you have to do is call them up and they do a lot of the work for you. All the work. All right. It's time for Supercharger Reviews. Let's see what we got out there in the world. Hey Zach and Jesse. This is Mike from Alaska. I'm at the new Supercharger here at the North Birchwood Exit in Chewgiaq. This is the second Tesla Supercharger in the state of Alaska. And it's in the parking lot of the Three Bears grocery store. They have a gas station here. You can get snacks in there, or you can go inside there and do some grocery shopping. There isn't much else here, but it is directly off the highway. I would give this location a 7 out of 10, because it's right off the highway. I think with this being here more things will come in the area as far as amenities goes. But number two, and it's close to most of the people in Alaska, so that's exciting. And now you know. Welcome to the newest Supercharger in Southern California. The West Covina, California West Covina Supercharger. It's got 16 stalls in a great convenient location, 250 kilowatts. And this is what it looks like on my screen, because it's raining. So it's right there, you see my car right there. And as far as things that are around here, I think it's an excellent location. I give it a 9, because it has an 85 degree bakery, excellent bakery, a great place for coffee too. There's a file place to the left of me over here, just a beautiful day for some soup. Other restaurants back there, in fact, if all I have to do is just go like this, see the whole list of restaurants, and there's a liquor shop, about between 24 hours. And there's a, yeah, the file that's called Calantro Basil, Canon Chinese, Dog House, Plap a classic bird, sushi, me rolling, it's a really good, great excellent location right here, right off the 10 freeway. So not too many people know about it, because it just opened last week. And I apologize for the car, because it's been raining heavily. But now you know, have a great day as I can just say. Hello, my name is Greg, and I'm at the 8th stall, 250 kilowatt Supercharger station in Shelby Nearby, there's a Cracker Barrel restaurant with General Store, and right across the street, there's Wendy's, and a Speedway gas station, and right around the corner, there's a steakhouse. Overall, I have to give it 7 out of 10, just because the restaurants are not 24 hours, but it is conveniently located right off the freeway. Back to you? Hello world. This is Holger from Austria again. I'm here in Czech Republic at Lobosic Supercharger, this Supercharger is 3-3, and it has 8 stalls. There are also 4 IONITY stalls. It's in the city center, not too far from the highway. The next restaurants are like 200-300 meters away, so I give this a 6 out of 10. Now you know. I love how many of the European Superchargers the ground isn't just asphalt, it's like really pretty. If you know how they do it, because it's not that common in the United States. If you like, if you're like, yeah, that's like an easy thing that we just buy at the hardware store, just let us know what it's called, so that way I could find it, because I don't know what the search term's not. Yeah. Alright, let's see what we got for new Superchargers in the world. What do we got this week, Jess? We got the 6-DAL version 4 in Arres, France. We got number 21 in the UAE, the 4-Stalin Dubai. Number 40 in Austria is the 12-Stalin version 4 in Hyderwang, Austria. Number 75 in North Carolina is the 6-DAL in Lexington, North Carolina. The 4-Stalin Chickasaki, Japan. The 9-Stalin version 4 in EGGING MC, Germany. Number 215 in Germany is the 8-Stalin version 4 in Herborn, Germany. The 36-Stalin version 4 in Nokseir, France. Number 200 in France is the 8-Stalin version 4 in Gossyn, France. Number 35 in Switzerland is the 16-Stalin version 4 in Nuschatel, Switzerland. Number 15 in Kentucky is the 8-Stalin version 4 in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. Expanding from 10 to 14 stalls is the 250-KW version 4 in Marita, Spain. Number 72 in Spain and number 1254 in Europe is the 12-Stalin version 4 in Vitoria, Spain. From 3 to 9 stalls in China is the 250-KW in Hwangpu, a Greenland colorful city. Number 2081 in China is expanding from 3 to 6, 250-KW stalls in Suzu, China. Number 48 in Ohio is the 8-Stalin new Albany. Number 119 in Japan is the 4-Stalin and Sendai, Japan. And number 79 in Virginia, number 2300 in the USA, number 6484 in the world is the 8-Stalin version 4 in Emporia, Virginia. And have we seen in the past few weeks a bunch of these locations expanding? It's really cool to see because a lot of the ones we saw in China were like 3 stalls and now they're getting bigger, which is really great to see. Also, do you notice the past few weeks almost everything's been version 4? I have. That's really cool. At some point we're going to stop saying it because it's just going to be the norm. Exactly. And I mean the whole world is talking politics this week and I get it. It can be a bit uncomfortable when you're talking with coworkers at the water cooler or the virtual water cooler on Zoom. Even family dinners can get a bit overheated. Which is why this might be a good time to slide the conversation over to something a little bit less controversial. Electric vehicles and sustainable energy. I mean that used to be the most controversial thing, but I feel like this week it's not. So maybe bring up a story you heard on today's show and see where it leads. You might be surprised. As people learn new things about EVs and sustainable energy, you might just change their mind. Especially if you can dispel some of the common misconceptions about EVs and solar panels and batteries. And thank you guys for being awesome. Thank you to everyone here for supporting us on Patreon.
