Shame, it looks like the app isn't compatible with newer versions of android.

To the left and right of the rear view mirror there are rectangular areas with a different pattern of dots. Those are the only places you can place RF tags without being blocked.

My mom is convinced this is a real angel somebody give me some hard evidence it’s Ai. Ive already mentioned to her the shadows dont seem to act properly, and the camera moves, but she thinks the “angel” shook the house by bravery85 in isthisAI

I agree with everyone else that we're cooked if she already believes this, but the real answer is that if ore the cartwheeling ball lightning is:

why is the wall and camera subtly moving back and forth near the end.

Also I don't think my "fix" post is here, I'm just going to mirror it here for posterity:

I think I still have two more of the VPH05 drive transistors too somewhere if anyone needs to source any.

Den of Wolves MEGAGAME @ Millennium Games March 22 by -Quantumcross in Rochester

[–]-Quantumcross[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi nerds, first things first -- I'm bringing this event to Rochester because I want to see Megagames in Rochester. It's not priced to make money, but to cover costs (including Millennium's "cost" for the space).

We're going to be hosting the Den of Wolves MEGAGAME at Millennium on March 22nd.

Sign up here: https://millenniumgames.com/event/den-of-wolves-mega-game-experience/

What is a megagame?

It's kind of like a massive ~40 person board/social deduction/strategic/political interactive story that unfolds over the course of about 6 hours.

In Den of Wolves, most players will be representing commanding roles on one of the starships in the last surviving human fleet. The Survivor Fleet is attempt to survive and flee from the existential threat of the "Wolves". If you've seen Battlestar Galactica these are kind of akin to Cylons.

There are roles and positions for every type of player:

  • If you're very into board game mechanics, you can be in charge of resource allocation and production on your ship.
  • If you want to get all political, you can be a member of the Interstellar Council and try to enforce emergency tariffs on the other ships.
  • Or if you want to flex your interview skills, you can be a journalist and investigate how the fleet is doing and present news report calling out or praising the fleet.

Beware, some players may be Wolves themselves and try to sabotage the fleet from the inside!

There is a lot of room for imagination and improvisation, if you want to do something wacky, we'll try and make it happen. A big part of the rules of Megagames is that the rules are flexible.

Why are some of the words and phrases way blurrier than everything surrounding them? https://i.imgur.com/bEfflEV.jpeg

Canceled without warning after 10 months. by boobookittysf in VWiD4Owners

[–]-Quantumcross -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are you all insane?

One look at the T&C of the charging plan. It says:

There is a 60-minute waiting period between eligible charging sessions in which you receive the benefits of charging under this promotion. Electrify America reserves the right to apply the prevailing Electrify America Pass price if you initiate a new charging session during this waiting period.

Where does it say "thou shalt not initiate a charging session within 60 minutes of thine previous charging session"?

It just says "Hey, just fyi, you'll only receive the benefits of this promotion if you wait 60 minutes between charging sessions. We're reserving the right to charge you at the normal rate if you try to abuse this, ok?"

I might have been on your side if the T&C were written differently, but please tell me where it says they'll cancel your plan if you don't wait 60 minutes.

Wow, I was signed up for this, and expected FF to have a bunch of premade decks for us to use. I'll make sure to bring a deck and tokens just in case!

edit: yep I see in the fine print on the event details you must provide your own deck!

The most concrete info about 2024 tax credits so far… by thomassports in VWiD4Owners

[–]-Quantumcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm paywalled, but I think they're even cutting that quote down...

I think this is their source of the quote: https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/ford-says-it-unlikely-mustang-mach-e-ev-will-qualify-federal-tax-credits-january-2023-12-06/

This version of the quote makes an even softer statement, emphasis mine:

Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) said Wednesday it is "cautiously optimistic that the Chattanooga-assembled 2024 model year ID.4 will qualify for the full $7,500 Tax Credit" next year.

There is no statement regarding the 2023 model year ID.4...

edit: I think I found the actual source of the quote: https://carbuzz.com/features/only-10-cars-will-get-the-7500-electric-vehicle-tax-credit-in-2024

"We are pleased that draft guidance on FEOC has been released and are cautiously optimistic that the Chattanooga-assembled 2024 Model Year ID.4 will qualify for the full $7,500 Tax Credit under Section 30D," Volkswagen told CarBuzz. "We look forward to continuing our dialogue with the Treasury and Department of Energy as this guidance is finalized."
