When Your Car has a Mind of its Own..
Tesla is not so happy right now and for good reason. Their stock has dropped substantially this week, and here at the Skinny Dip we believe a major reason is because of some video footage recently uploaded to YouTube.
Tesla’s new Autosteer feature is intended for highway use only. However that has not stopped drivers from misusing the feature. Videos that have gone viral contain footage of the cars steering the drivers into some seriously dangerous situations. Musk has quoted that the new self-driving capabilities are “beta” features and not fully autonomous. Surprise, surprise this has not stopped people from abusing the features then running to social media to boast. Approval for the Autopilot feature will be coming soon in Europe and Asia & we can expect to see more self destructive videos soon. Be careful what you post & remember don’t selfie and drive.

May the Force be with You….
The galaxy and Twitter are both pretty huge right now, especially after last nights Giants-Eagles game. The out of this world Star Wars trailer premiered during the halftime show, and fans everywhere went nuts for it. The trailer generated a lot of buzz – think 17,000 tweets per minute type of hype. The teams at Twitter and Star Wars are also debuting a new emoji leading to the premiere of the film. Can you say gamechanger. The X-wing emoji which is already in use has been automatically added to fans tweets when paired with specific hashtags. This emoji addition has not been loved by everyone, but others (Mark Hamill) are using the emoji for real power, check out what Luke Skywalker tweeted here.

In Case You Missed It.
Yesterday was October 21st 2015, no big deal right? Well for all you movie lovers out there we’ve been waiting for it since 1989. Yesterday was the day Marty McFly travelled to the future in the groundbreaking cinematic classic Back to the Future part II. Remember the sick Nike’s, flying boards, and oh yeah flying cars. Well we don’t yet have the flying cars or boards, but we’re getting there. Oh, and have you seen USA Today’s front page? There’s a picture of Marty McFly junior getting arrested, check it out here.
