Lhasa to Kathmandu by bus

Lhasa to Kathmandu by bus - Man in Green Shirt and Brown Pants Standing Near Yellow Truck

I am planning to go to China for 3 months. The next country I would jump into ideally would be Nepal from Tibet, because next I would go India.

As I understand Tibet is now accessible by train from China, so this bit should be easy. However after the earthquake roads were damaged and a trip by bus to Kathmandu is showing conflicting information. Some claim that you can outright buy a ticket, others that it's not possible...

Is it possible to travel from Tibet to Kathmandu by bus? Can I cross the border overland all by myself without tours and such and get visa at the border there?
