Were you using Google contacts? Just install it, sync, and all are there. If not, without a backup, you'll need to enter all of them again one by one.

I think I am dealing with the latest strain or covid fad
So about two weeks ago, I woke up feeling not so well. I didn't feel like awful but not good either. I recall starting to mentally process what I needed to do that day, where I was going, where I wanted to end the drive day and then nothing
I don't know how I sat there but all of the sudden I had absolutely no clue what I was supposed to be doing . I couldn't form a thought which led me to being . So I went into muscle memory mode.
That's how I ran for the next few days.
Over the next four or five days I started to feel worse and worse.
Until around day 8 I woke up and felt absolutely horrible i had a major headache, my entire body hurt, I was lethargic all I wanted to do was sleep. But that wasn't an option.
So over the next few days I kept running into people who looked like i felt. So by that time I was going on two weeks of whatever I had and that's when I noticed two things first I was running a fever and for several days when I ate or drank something, it didn't taste right and a third thing I couldn't smell anything. I finally figured out the food and beverage problem
Everything was bland. I have no taste buds. I think I am going into week 3 and still Everything is bland.
I did a check on potential covid symptoms and I could check off each one.

My first bout of the covid gave me severe brain fog. I was put into the ICU for remdesivir treatment. I can only remember some of the last 2 days I was hospitalized.

Milo gonna Milo

I stumbled across this father/daughter duet a short while ago and am really blown away.

Did anyone else catch the big "Disclaimer" that flashed on the screen when the Tesla Cybercab event kicked off?

Summary and Purpose of Disclaimer:​

This disclaimer is aimed at informing investors, stakeholders, and potential buyers about the risks associated with the forward-looking statements made during the product announcement. These statements include expectations regarding Tesla's product development, manufacturing, ramping up production, pricing, market growth, and overall business strategy. The purpose is to clarify that the company’s projections are based on assumptions, which may not necessarily come true, and to protect Tesla from liability if actual outcomes differ from their forecasts.

Key Points:​

• Forward-Looking Statements: The disclaimer highlights that many of the claims in the presentation, including timelines, production capacities, demand growth, and profitability, are based on management’s assumptions about the future.
• Risks and Uncertainties: Tesla acknowledges that these projections involve uncertainties and risks, including factors such as:
  
  • Delays in manufacturing or launching products
  • Supply chain challenges, including the delivery of parts and battery components
  • Technological risks tied to electric vehicles, automation, and artificial intelligence
  • Government incentives and economic factors, especially those impacting electric vehicle markets
  • Product recalls or liability issues, if products don’t perform as expected
  • Competition and market pressures in the automotive, transportation, and energy sectors
• Tesla’s Obligations: The company is not required to update these forward-looking statements if circumstances change or if new information emerges.

Concerns for Interested Buyers:​

1. Product Delays: The disclaimer points to the potential for delays in launching or ramping up manufacturing of Tesla products. Customers should be cautious about relying on Tesla's announced timelines.
2. Supply Chain Risks: There are risks associated with delivering essential components (e.g., battery cells) on time, which could impact production and availability.
3. Performance and Recalls: The possibility of product recalls or underperformance is raised, indicating potential concerns for those expecting flawless technology from Tesla.
4. International and Regulatory Risks: As Tesla expands internationally, changes in government incentives or compliance requirements could affect pricing, availability, or Tesla's ability to deliver products globally.
5. Economic Conditions: Broader economic factors or currency fluctuations could influence Tesla’s costs or financial performance, possibly impacting pricing or availability of future products.

Conclusion:​

While Tesla’s vision is ambitious and forward-looking, this disclaimer serves as a reminder that numerous risks could impact the company's ability to deliver on its promises, particularly with new or upcoming products. Customers and investors should approach these announcements with caution, understanding that timelines and performance expectations are not guaranteed.

Cybercab Disclaimer (Full Text):​

Certain statements in this presentation, including, but not limited to, statements relating to the development, strategy, ramp, production and capacity, demand and market growth, cost, pricing and profitability, investment, deliveries, deployment, availability and other features and improvements and timing of existing and future Tesla products and services; statements regarding operating margin, operating profits, spending and liquidity; and statements regarding expansion, improvements and/or ramp and related timing at our factories are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions with respect to the future, are based on management’s current expectations, involve certain risks and uncertainties, and are not guarantees. Future results may differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement. The following important factors, without limitation, could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements: the risk of delays in launching and/or manufacturing our products, services, and features cost-effectively; our ability to build and/or grow our products and services, sales, delivery, installation, servicing and charging capabilities and effectively manage this growth; consumers’ demand for products and services based on artificial intelligence, robotics and automation, electric vehicles, and ride-hailing services generally and our vehicles and services specifically, as well as our ability to successfully and timely develop, introduce, and scale such products and services; the ability of suppliers to deliver components according to schedules, prices, quality and volumes acceptable to us, and our ability to manage such components effectively; any issues with lithium-ion cells or other components manufactured at our factories; our ability to ramp our factories in accordance with our plans; our ability to procure supply of battery cells, including through our own manufacturing; risks relating to international expansion; any failures by Tesla products to perform as expected or if product recalls occur; the risk of product liability claims; competition in the automotive, transportation, and energy product and services markets; our ability to maintain public credibility and confidence in our long-term business prospects; our ability to manage risks relating to our various product financing programs; the status of government and economic incentives for electric vehicles and energy products; our ability to attract, hire and retain key employees and qualified personnel; our ability to maintain the security of our information and production and product systems; our compliance with various regulations and laws applicable to our operations and products, which may evolve from time to time; risks relating to our indebtedness and financing strategies; and adverse foreign exchange movements. More information on potential factors that could affect our financial results is included from time to time in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports, including the risks identified under the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on January 26, 2024 and subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. Tesla disclaims any obligation to update information contained in these forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

You can see the Disclaimer at 52:45 in the live announcement video:

Elon Musk just officially announced the Tesla Cybercab, claiming that it will launch before 2027, cost less than $30k, and allow owners to make money by offering their service to the public.

But will it really cost $30k? Doubtful: the presentation started with a disclaimer that statements made are future predictions and may be inaccurate.

This is the EXACT bait and switch that Elon used for the Cybertruck. Offer an outrageously compelling product for an unbelievable price, driving pre-orders that are used to fund development. As confirmed by Reuters, the Cybertruck price was a whopping 50% higher at launch than promised in the announcement.

Don't be surprised when that $30k promise jumps to $45k+

So this morning out of desperation I bought this at a truck stop $30. About thirty minutes later I arrived at the place I was going to get fuel and I went Inside to use the rest room I walk by the electronic section and saw a four slot one for $20
About ten minutes ago I saw another four slot one for $15

Yep. It's gonna take me some better mileage before I get one.

We've just launched the Tesla Cybercab Forum!

it seems they don't work well below 25°F. Some high end models perform down to 5°F.

I couldn't find any that have an actual heat pump and that specifically mention outdoor temps (aside from that 41 degree unit). 25 would probably suffice and 5 would definitely do the trick but I don't want to take any chances.

Just replace the mini split. Unless you live in the hood, don't nobody want a window unit in their neighborhood. They look tacky.

The property is in a historic neighborhood and this window overlooks a shared back alley that is used for trash bins and a truck loading zone, so nobody is worried about the appearance.

All that being said, I'm leaning towards just replacing the mini-split, but I'm shocked that a product doesn't exist that is marketed towards these specific needs (window unit for 4 season AC/Heat full-time).

You can open your contacts app and in it's settings there should be a option to merge or fix the contacts. It'll batch process them and you should be good to go

Exactly. Why do you need it anyway. You know Meta be sharing all your 💩 with God knows who.

Your phone is 11 years old! Why didn't you have a backup plan? You had 11 years to make one. Hopefully you can salvage your items and not lose them forever.
