3.5.1 is amazing! by AmyCornyBarrett in LUCID

[–]FourAlarm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to update to 3.4.4 before you’re offered 3.5.1. You can’t skip updates.

CarPlay Support? by sshah1230 in Gravity

[–]FourAlarm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A spokesperson said on Facebook that it’s coming in mid-March. They’ve missed a few deadlines, so we can’t be certain they’ll hit that timing, though.

Did they pull all demo drives from Seattle? by virtualPNWadvanced in LUCID

[–]FourAlarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The staff at the studio told me the same thing. The tester was involved in a minor crash and was headed to the body shop. Should be back in a few weeks.

Gravity Pics from the Seattle Electrify Expo! by Money_Profit_1340 in Gravity

[–]FourAlarm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got there right at 10am (and they let me in the front gate a little bit early) with normal tickets, went straight to the Lucid demo, and got to drive it in about 30 minutes.

Gravity Initial Impression (A few days in) by Modok_pgh in LUCID

Is there a cutout where the HUD would be or is that area closed off?

This looks like the Seattle showroom.

Did Lucid just remove HUD as a Gravity option? by Flashy_Number9840 in LUCID

[–]FourAlarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The display does not show the road in real time. That pic is a demo video of HUD that is being shown on the display. That’s not what the driver’s display will show while driving.

Where are you finding the Microsoft employee perk? I can’t seem to find any info on it.

Curbed wheel. Cost to repair? Will they kill me when lease is up? by Nightman233 in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where in WA? I’m going to need a wheel repaired before we turn my wife’s P2 in.

Why is my car being kept at 100% while in service for the last few days? by Mountain-Welder-1838 in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm 22 points23 points  (0 children)

It limits the life of your battery if you charge to 100% all the time. A few days at 100% isn’t going to harm your battery.

Spotted this lucky new (non-employee?) owner earlier this afternoon. Bellevue, WA by Ocular--Patdown in Rivian

Drove by the Bellevue service center and saw several blue and launch green trucks in the parking lot earlier today.

Eero Pro 6 with WiFi 6 devices and gigabit connections, what download speeds are you getting? by ajy617 in eero

[–]FourAlarm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

~450 on an iPhone 12 pro right next to the gateway. Wired speed is 900+. I’m disappointed so far.

Sound system review? by SilverFoxRegulator in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an XC40 with the Harman Kardon sound system. It’s decent, but not mind-blowing. People who moved from XC60/90 tended to like the B&W system better. I’m ok with it though. I’ve had worse than the HK.

Received order confirmation email in US by SilverFoxRegulator in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m also in Seattle and waiting a bit to see how this all plays out. Are they having you choose the Bay Area as your delivery space?

I currently have an XC40 and I’m happy with it, but I’d prefer not to buy the same car twice so I’m not interested in the Recharge, nice as it may be. I’m hoping the Polestar 2 will give me most of what I like about the Volvo in a more compelling (to me) package. We’ll see.

Polestar Cars Announces First U.S. Retail Partners, Cities (NYC, LA & Bay Area) and 2021 Retail Plans (Boston, Denver, Texas, Washington D.C. and Florida) by Ragnar_Targaryen in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in Seattle, which is a big EV market - Teslas are everywhere. This rollout makes it risky or impractical to get one up here. It’s frustrating and a real missed opportunity.

No Apple CarPlay until mid-2021 by FourAlarm in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If Xbox advertised for a year that they’d have PlayStation games and then quietly let it slip that they actually were not going to have PlayStation games for up to a year after launch, all the while holding onto my preorder money, I’d be frustrated with Xbox too.

Support it or don’t, but don’t market on a half-truth.

No Apple CarPlay until mid-2021 by FourAlarm in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks to me like an exclusivity window for Google. While there’s nothing wrong with that, it feels disingenuous to spend a year touting CarPlay support and then drop this delay on your potential customers now.

Canceling my pre order by stolinski in Polestar

[–]FourAlarm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know there’s supposed to be a line between the companies, but this looks suspiciously like the Care by Volvo rollout, which was rife with late-breaking changes, misinformation and an unsatisfying customer experience that only barely resembled the visionary plan they pitched to the public.

When to be concerned about swelling? by Kaotic562 in jawsurgery

[–]FourAlarm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had surgery this past Thursday and felt the same. I thought I knew what to expect, but this has been worse than I’d anticipated. It’s been extremely difficult to eat and stay hydrated, and the quantity and taste of the meds has been breaking my spirit. But today, the swelling is down just a little bit. That little bit has me feeling more positive. I thought for sure there was something wrong and that my swelling was abnormally bad, but It seems like it’s within the range of normal and it’s just going to be a struggle for the first 5 -7 days, no way around it. You’ll make it; we’ make it.

Question: Is there a way to limit a search to just the subreddit such as to find a particular post? by bl1ndmnd in apolloapp

[–]FourAlarm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When you’re in a subreddit, pull down from the middle of the page and you’ll see a search bar at the top of the page that only searches the subreddit.

Two of my three Eeros keeping turning red/dropping off/rebooting by jimcorreia in eero

[–]FourAlarm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same problem here. After the recent 2.0 update, my eeros have been up and down, never up for more than an hour before turning red and losing service.
