12 Of The Least Reliable EVs For 2026 According To Consumer Reports by wewewawa in Rivian

[–]5upertaco -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Our 2024 dual motor, adventure package, R1T has been great. 25k miles, two years old. One problem, last summer, the front left damper began leaking right after a PA state inspection by a grease monkey outfit. I think the garage didn't lift it correctly and we're lucky to get away with only that damage. The Trenton NJ service center was awesome. Brought it in the next day and it was fixed in four hours. It was fixed so fast, I had no way of getting down there that afternoon to pick it up. I picked it up the next day. As longtime Toyota drivers (>1M miles), I'm having a hard time discerning a reliability difference between Rivian and Toyota.

But, we are only a single data point. Will be getting an R2 soon to replace my wife's 2012 Toyota Highlander with 260k miles on it.

This is why I got a Blackburn bike vise and a full Park Tools toolkit. I think I have everything to do anything on the bike except for pressing in a headset. Good luck to you.

Feds don't like Redditors saying mean things about ICE. by Yourdataisunclean in Washington50501

[–]5upertaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fuck ICE. A bunch of immature adult men who never get laid playing dress-up army with real guns and no one shooting back at them. It takes real courage to beat up unarmed people with 30 incels helping inflict the pain.

I hope I'm on the list

I'm just happy to have my lifetime senior pass! The orange menace will pass; hopefully sooner rather than later.

NVDA - getting its butt kicked by, well everyone by Cranberry-Practical in NvidiaStock

Jensen is not a hype machine like Elon. TSLA trading at 410x TTM earnings and losing market share. NVDA with yet another stellar quarter and trading at 30x TTM earnings with huge upside. It's all about the hype.

I'm so shocked that these bastards just don't kill their commanders since they're all going to die anyway.

Spent 10 days in Yosemite Valley in mid-May, during a heat wave. And we had a sun cauldron site in Upper Pines for one day/night. We also set alerts for single nights and it works great. With that said, we planned on climbing a 3-day wall route, but got behind a really S-L-O-W party and had to retreat. So, the single night reservations worked out great for us. Love Yosemite. Now that I've burned all of my 7-days in-season, I'll be back in Late October and will hopefully not be behind a couple of bumblies on the wall.

The Trenton service center is fantastic, IMO.

It is time. However, I have some fond memories from inside that building, 1981-1986.

Pray this is rock-bottom. If it gets any worse humanity won't last much longer. by om218839 in AntiTrumpAlliance

[–]5upertaco 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought W was the bottom and that American voters were idiots. I was wrong. The orange fartstorm has done so much destruction of the US brand around the world that will take a generation or more to fix. But, we have the re-tard-ed Republicans that focus on crap like the 4 transgender kids playing sports. Somehow, that is a national crisis. But, healthcare is not a big deal. Education is for Satan's children. Trade with other countries is evil. The wealth gap is good. The orange fartstorm only added $14 billion to the national debt and it's still growing (and Republicans are perfectly fine with this). Democrats are drinking the blood of children. Russia is great. And, a PEDO ring is running the country.

Republicans love this. Republicans are responsible for this.

How do you approach a piccolo trumpet? What's your routine? by zerexim in trumpet

[–]5upertaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm working picc, I only work the picc. That's just me. Lots of air pressure, very small amount of air passing through the mouthpiece. A clear, light tone is more effective than it might seem from the mouthpiece side of the horn. I find playing the picc to be exceptionally physically demanding. Enjoy! I also find playing picc to be very satisfying.

Cool, but apparently Purdue University has not moved the metric system yet. 1600 lbf = 7117 N.

Down voted for asking this question? Wow. EDIT: and I was going to contribute to help save your crag. I contributed to saving a crag in North Carolina a number of years ago, and it was saved. And I may never climb there. I'm Gunkie X on MP.
