This one took longer than I expected given how much footage there was to sift through. But the 5,230 mile @Rivian road trip is now live! The good, the bad, and the UGLY. 🍿🎥: https://t.co/5TsQnJY5gc

When @Rivian tells the @cybertruck to hold it's beer. Talk about a face for radio, lol. https://t.co/AzuhRhfmIQ

This doesn’t change a thing for the average Rivian owner. Netflix and Apple were excluded for DRM reasons. Hopefully we get both services natively soon. Until then, @plex is the winner. https://t.co/Z0ik3HZUFc

Cast is available on over 3,000 streaming apps across both iOS and Android. Some notable exclusions from automotive casting at this time include Netflix and AppleTV+. For iOS devices, if you don’t...

F1 on 4k Blu-ray + Dirac Active Room Treatment = 🤯 It’s truly wild what software can do for audio.

Those Black Friday emails are flying... But could the latest 2025.38.30 bug that has screwed up Highway Assist availability be a hint at something bigger about to drop? I expand on this and more in this weeks Rivian Recap. Drops at 4pm PST 👇 https://t.co/OUdQhWFpEi

I accidentally let AI delete terabytes of backlog footage I use for my YouTube Channel along with other files pulled off old machines. And my entire b-roll catalog. How's your day going? ☠️

I guess that $1B savings by DOGE are about as real as the Roadster 2. https://t.co/DT65otI6wj

Musk said the initiative would save at least $1 trillion. But its website claims to have reached only $214 billion.

Those Black Friday sales for NAS related stuff has me 👀… With prices trending up, snagging deals right now may prove prudent for a while. That Plex and video production storage is looking swole. 240TB may be in my future 😬

You're the man, Chris! I can't wait to level up my rear light game from last years floppy zip tie affair. The PNW darkness *needs* this.
Getting ready to light up my R1T and @TravisKetchum’s too. @Prusa3D XL FTW. Printables: https://t.co/eOlt7sTV5K

The new @Porsche Cayenne EV looks really sweet. But no dog mode? And will yet another 6-figure electric SUV sell in meaningful numbers? It’s so dang beautiful though, and that power train looks 🤘

On December 11th, Rivian will give a sneak peak with their AI & Autonomy Day in Palo Alto, CA. I will be attending in person with full overage and live demos. It should prove interesting to see just what they've been cooking up over at HQ.

Combine this with @RJScaringe's recent 2-hour hands free drive around Palo Alto and you can see the shape of the roadmap start to come together. Data + edge cases + extended autonomy sessions = self-driving foundation curing, rapidly.

Notice the language. They want to build and improve low speed parking features using real world environments like shopping centers and public parking lots. This is the exact proving ground that grows self-driving systems into really useful frameworks.

Here is the full email @Rivian sent Gen2 owners. Read this carefully and think about what they're preparing for (December 11th looms large with the AI & Autonomy Day).

With update 2025.46 coming next month, that changes. Rivian will now use your saved locations to exclude the places you've marked as safe zones like Home, Work or favorite locations. Everywhere else becomes training data for real world edge cases the models desperately need.
