@electricfuture5 some of this was me supervising and @electricfuture5 watching me get nervous when the car handled situations I thought it wouldn't. It's so good, I want lite even more now..

humanpilot was in fact still engaged

@elonmusk @kylaschwaberow Yup. In this case, the driver manually overrode self-driving by pressing the accelerator all the way to 100% of the accel pedal in this residential area. They reached a speed of 73 mph during the crash, and had the accelerator pressed even after the crash.

Finally figured out how to use Grok OAuth for Openclaw running on @umbrel (in Docker). The browser callback kept failing. I went back and forth with Claude for a while to find how to do it. The problem: the auth flow spins up a listener on 127.0.0.1:PORT. But inside Docker, that loopback is the container's loopback — your browser on another machine can't reach it. So the callback redirect dies every time. Most guides tell you to SSH tunnel: ssh -N -L PORT:127.0.0.1:PORT user@host…but that points at the host's loopback, not the container's. Won't work if the app is in Docker like it is on Umbrel. The fix that actually worked Start the auth flow inside the container ssh into the Umbrel , find the name of the Openclaw container (usually its openclaw_gateway_1) docker ps Then run docker exec -it sh You are now in the shell of the Openclaw app container openclaw configure select model xai OAuth and copy TWO things from the printed URL: the PORT and the state value. Open the auth URL in your browser, sign in / approve consent. It'll fail to redirect and show you a CODE on the error page. Copy that code fast (it expires in ~60s). Now ssh into the Umbrel and run docker ps Then run docker exec -it sh and deliver the code to the listener yourself: curl "http://127.0.0.1:PORT/callback?code=YOUR_CODE&state=YOUR_STATE" The CLI can't tell it apart from a real browser redirect. It does the token exchange and you're logged in! Openclaw now running on Umbrel powered by @grok

@AdrianCercenia After burning lots of credits on Anthropic and playing around I'm now using gemini-3-flash-preview via @OpenRouter as the default model. Also I've swapped over to @NousResearch Hermes agent

starting slow, but I set up @openclaw on my @umbrel - my bot is called Crawford 🦞. so far all he does is make draft emails, calendar management (add events, check schedule) and send stock alerts. I can see the potential for this is big.

@EVCircles It didn't really help with getting the car any faster, probably 2 weeks before regular reservations, but it was cool talking to people in line from NZ and QLD flew in just to reserve

Already have thousands of times over. My “net worth” is almost entirely due to my ownership stakes in Tesla and SpaceX. I have <0.1% that is cash. Tesla and SpaceX employees all receive stock/options and Tesla is >80% owned by retail investors and index/pension funds, so value increases apply >80% to them.

in the not too distant future, it won't be surprising to join a meeting to find openclaw agents that have been briefed by the owner or have been given instructions on what to do during that meeting
