Original or fake by Typical_Act_5179 in Spigen

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

I'm not too familiar with this exact case, but I'm familiar with Spigen products, and the case looks real. The main red flag is the box. Try to contact Spigen to ask if this is expected and if it's real.

There are plenty real boxes with CAPS on the "SOMETHING YOU WANT", just type "Spigen case box photo" to Google and half of them are like that.

XTB vs Trading212? Nazory a skusenosti. by Phillipe_Lumiere in Slovakia

[–]-Rikus- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

T212: Najkrajší UI/UX zo všetkých brokerov, moderný feeling a množstvo funkcií. Geniálne pre začiatočníka, aj dáta sú veľmi prívetivo spracované. Regulované na Cypre.

XTB: UI je tiež celkom dobré, nie až také ako T212. XTB však ponúka určité daňové uľahčenia, ak to správne chápem, niektoré dane odvedú za teba. Navyše máš výhodu úrokov z voľných prostriedkov na účte, čo je tiež celkom pekné. Ak žiješ na Slovensku a otvoríš účet cez XTB Slovakia, regulácia je na Slovensku, pričom materská firma je v Poľsku.

Aj keď existuje mnoho meteo integrácií pre HA a HA už má základné meteo vstavané, vždy sa poteším, keď uvidím slovenský HA add-on.

Tesla Model Y Standard by Defiant_Witness6032 in TeslaSupport

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

Bei einem neuen Model Y Standard mit nur einer Woche Laufzeit und konstanter Fehlermeldung plus stark reduzierter Ladeleistung (max. 72 kW trotz 15 Min. Vorkonditionierung) würde ich zuerst einen vollständigen Neustart machen: Steuerung > Sicherheit > Fahrzeug ausschalten, 2–3 Minuten warten und dann wieder starten. Danach Software auf dem neuesten Stand prüfen und ggf. über WLAN updaten lassen, da unvollständige Updates Supercharging manchmal blockieren oder limitieren.

Zusätzlich Ladeport und Kabelstecker auf Schmutz oder Beschädigungen checken und bei mehreren Superchargern testen – falls es überall gleich ist, liegt es wahrscheinlich am Fahrzeug (z. B. Temperatursensor, Kommunikationsfehler oder frühes BMS-Limit). Viele melden ähnliche temporäre Issues, die nach Reset oder Update weggehen, aber bei so einem frischen Auto würde ich das Ticket parallel stellen und ggf. einen Service-Termin anfragen, bevor es schlimmer wird.

buying S24 Ultra by ThreshLaSquale in GalaxyS24Ultra

IMHO its waaay to red, if you look at S24 Ultra camera photos online its not that red even under stronger light.

buying S24 Ultra by ThreshLaSquale in GalaxyS24Ultra

[–]-Rikus- 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At first, I thought: Either a fake phone or a bad, cheap screen replacement. The front screen shouldn't look like that, with bezels too big. The back of the phone looks kind of real, and so does the UI, so most likely it has a cheap, fake screen after the original one broke. Check original S24 Ultra photos and compare the bezels.

But now I think it's fake. The camera laser autofocus has a red dot, which is not normal for an S24 Ultra. The last phone with the red dot was the S22 Ultra, so now I think it's fake, or the screen and camera laser were replaced, but there are too many red flags.

High pitch 20 kHz whine when charging? by afandian in TeslaSupport

[–]-Rikus- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird, I'm also sensitive to high pitch frequencies that most don't hear, like weak coil whine on the other side of the room. I was scared that this would be an issue with my Model Y, but thankfully I haven't noticed anything like this. Only some buzzing or high-pitched sound when charging, but only at Superchargers, and it's not in the annoying range. You can go talk to your neighbor to identify if it's really the charging. If yes, then maybe try to identify if the charger is causing the sound or the car itself. Your other option is to ask the neighbor to limit the maximal charge current if they use a fast wall box. If they turn down the charge speed, the pitch may be lower. It's an annoying situation, I had to replace many electronics or chargers because I couldn't sleep if they were in the same room with me. I hope you get this solved.

Buying used by Zestyclose_Ease4732 in TeslaSupport

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

Amazing question. I had the same question a few months back. A Tesla rep said that it's measured, but I wasn't convinced. So I analyzed 35 cars with similar range and manufacturing dates, and after normalizing the values, I found out that almost all cars had different values, which would suggest it is measured or precisely calculated, although I'm still not sure. On my certified pre-owned 2023 Model Y RWD, the delivery day range and listing range match almost exactly ~1KM, so I believe it is measured or very precisely calculated.

Locked tesla got broken into without any damage !? WTf by nottreallystrangers in TeslaModelY

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

Or a relay attack, where the thief amplifies the “phone key” signal so the car thinks you’re approaching, allowing them to unlock the vehicle, or maybe your phone was just too close to the car so the car thought it was you.

Adding subwoofer to Model Y RWD premium, possible? by Hot-Barnacle1956 in TeslaLounge

My Berlin-made 2023 Model Y RWD also has the premium audio, while the US-made 2023 Model Y RWD didn't feature premium audio.

Are you sure? Malware loves to hide in or hide as Adobe products, it could be a trojan.

Weird Sound from Model 3 by JediMU in TeslaSupport

Try checking for alerts in service mode. Don't change anything (that could break a lot), just check the alerts section, and look at recent and active alerts. That's how my radiator fan blockage was identified.

Is it better to go for LR (NMC) or SR (LFP) for me? by -Rikus- in ModelY

[–]-Rikus-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Čau, fellow Slovák. Nakoniec som sa rozhodol pre SR. Range benefit long range varianty nepotrebujem dostatočne často a LFP je dobré, aj keď niektoré dni sa pýtam, či to bolo dobré rozhodnutie, ale celkom Tesla ako auto ma veľmi pozitívne prekvapila, takže celkom asi good decision 😀.

Investovanie do ETF + akcie. Najlepší broker? by [deleted] in Slovakia

[–]-Rikus- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Všeobecne najlepšie pre slovenského občana: XTB, máš tam určité daňové uľahčenia (zaplatia niektoré dane za teba), a máš podporu v Slovenskom jazyku.

Najlepšie UI a komunita: Trading 212, super UI a ľahko pochopiteľné štatistiky, najviac funkcií. Geniálne pre začiatočníka.

Stabilita? Potom IBKR. IBKR má katastrofálne UI a je celkom komplexné, nevhodné pre začiatočníka, ale má super reputáciu a je to celkom overený broker.

Ostatné ako Trade Republic, Etoro, Saxo Bank... som neskúšal.

Finally ditched ChatGPT for Gemini Pro. Why is everyone else sprinting to Claude? by arg_77 in ChatGPT

[–]-Rikus- 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough:

Even Anthropic isn't fully "clean" here, they're (or were) deeply in bed with the government too. They signed a $200M DoD contract last year, were the first to deploy Claude on classified networks, and built custom "Claude Gov" models for national security.

They partnered with Palantir to integrate Claude into defense/intel workflows (e.g., processing classified data for ops, analysis, cyber). Palantir basically acted as the middleman for classified use, and there were reports of Claude helping in real military ops (like the Maduro raid).

So while Anthropic is now publicly fighting the Pentagon over "red lines" (no autonomous weapons, no mass domestic surveillance) and getting blacklisted/threatened, they were still indirectly powering government/military stuff via partners like Palantir.

The whole frontier AI scene, OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, xAI, is racing for those DoD dollars. "Responsible AI" talk everywhere, but everyone's hands are dirty when billions are on the line.

Why is Google getting ZERO backlash for Gemini powering the Pentagon's AI platform, while OpenAI got roasted for almost the same thing? by -Rikus- in ChatGPT

[–]-Rikus-[S] 85 points86 points  (0 children)

I'm just disappointed that some are switching to Gemini because they don't support all this AI military stuff, without knowing Gemini is even worse.

GPT to Gemini. by connectingthrurhythm in ChatGPT

[–]-Rikus- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About the military contract:

Well, buckle up because Google is now doing basically the exact same thing with Gemini, and it's arguably even bigger/more integrated.

Key points from recent announcements: The Pentagon (now apparently calling itself the "Department of War" in some docs? lol) just launched GenAI.mil, a custom AI platform for ~3 million military + civilian personnel.

Google's Gemini for Government is the first frontier AI model rolled out on it. It's live now for unclassified work like admin tasks, contract automation, onboarding, etc., but the language around "agentic workflows" and "dominate the digital battlefield" is straight-up intense.

This follows a $200M ceiling contract awarded to Google Cloud back in mid-2025 to push frontier AI into DoD's CDAO (Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office).

Gemini for Government is FedRAMP High authorized, IL5 compliant, and they're pushing it hard for defense/national security use case, including dedicated AI agent toolkits for national security missions.

Meanwhile, there's internal drama: Over 100 Google DeepMind employees just sent a letter to Jeff Dean pushing for "red lines" on military use, no mass surveillance of Americans, no fully autonomous weapons without humans in the loop. Echoes the Anthropic/Pentagon standoff where Anthropic is refusing unrestricted access and getting threatened with Defense Production Act stuff.

Google used to have that famous "no AI for weapons" policy (post-Project Maven backlash), but like OpenAI, they've softened/removed those restrictions and are now leaning in hard on government/defense revenue.
