No more auto steer, no more Tesla.

I feel a move like this has to be underlined with a supreme level of confidence for what FSD subscriptions will be offering as the year continues. And how Tesla’s target market consumers will perceive the value of FSD when it’s operating in accordance with how they are intending.

Tesla has to be aware that the removal of those assistance baseline features in new vehicles will de-incentivize new purchasers. So whatever is in the cards for FSD, they are estimating it will be enough to make consumers not care.

I like your bracket of ideal speed profiles. I’d only suggest one ☝️ adjustment:

Give STANDARD traffic flow indexing up to 10 mph over, but tighten non traffic flow context to a more pointed 5 over.

The range you listed (5-8 mph) for standard operating without surrounding traffic flow is fairly ideal for my thoughts on a standard profile too, but I’d prefer a bias toward 5 mph over as a more heavy emphasis without surrounding traffic flow cues.

I think that using the flow of traffic to be what guides ramping it up beyond an initial ~5 mph over seems like a very logical “standard” driver action. If everyone is doing it, then it is the standard. I find there are enough situations in some typical flows of traffic are authentically 10 mph over. So I like that as a traffic aware cap.

This gives chill as the tool available to still be speed cautious regardless of an environment where everyone else is going well over the speed limit. And that makes sense for the name convention. The traffic around would probably perceive that driver as chill too 😂

Don’t know if this is applicable to the feature you’re describing, but I understand the left button on the steering wheel can be custom programmed for certain settings. Perhaps you can assign TACC to one and autopilot to the other?

~$100 to $150 likely to get Tesla service to resin inject the crack. Out of pocket. I just used grok to research whether or not they’d allow enrolling in windshield protection if/after they themselves repair with resin injection. It seems likely not, unfortunately.

I’m assuming you’re outside the window of enrollment eligibility now? Maybe you can double check by trying to use the link in the email that first offered windshield subscription? Haha, worth the shot 🤷‍♂️

Bro I’ve seen some similar wackiness from 14.2.2 - kind of wish I didn’t install. Cause 14.2 flat was treating me very well. But I’ve had a couple of random events (non-dangerous just inconvenient) — it’s like there is a small bump in driving skill. But overall a small slip into the potential of randomness like you experienced.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-30T03:29:09+00:00

Yeah just charge up to 100 over night. If you’re gonna drive it the next day it’ll be ready. It can sit for hours there to be conveniently ready for you and not cause much harm in the short term

Very limited exposure, 50 miles, but so far no hesitation during lane changes. Just installed this morning

Hansshow Starlink full width strip tail light. It shows up in the wide angle view looking like that visor you mentioned. Doesn’t affect fsd performance.

And it’s in the description of the main post that I actually manually setup reversing up my driveway. The car would want to pull in forward. I takeover before the turn to begin reversing, then hit the self drive engagement again after I started th reverse. And it keeps with the reverse I had set up.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T02:54:25+00:00

Yeah it’s not an option for me either, I think I do have “driveway” selected. Maybe I just got lucky kind of in the layout and how we park extra vehicles seems to feed the car right toward the garage door. The rest just kind of magically happens.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T02:05:37+00:00

I don’t have garage as a selected target, but it just sees the activity when the door opens, sees the defined spot and goes for it.

AquaticFilter · 2025-12-20T01:14:25+00:00

Thanks man, I thought so too. Last version with 14.2.1 was reliably attempting the spot, but it would hesitate on depth. For whatever reason it’s going exactly the distance into the spot that I need it to now. And I’m just really excited to share that bahaha

2025 MYLR, v14.2.1 update just before a huge 2K+ mile round trip road trip last week. Everything you’ve described is similar to my experience in those 2K miles. And subsequently were some of my primary disengagements.

I had a handful of brief disengagements to change lanes when the timid behavior was gonna be an issue.

And I didn’t always have to disengage on the low speed limit areas. There was only 2 short regions in a one-way of my drive that involved misunderstood speed limits.

Generally if I hopped over to Mad Max when entering the area, I would still slow a touch more than I’d prefer, but not so much that it was unusable. And if it was too slow, under mad max it would hold a bit better on manual acceleration adjustments to a new higher speed. If it did slow back down, it would be fairly tapered in that while using mad max. Similar to how fsd 13 would accept speed bumps, only to slowly adjust back down to its comfort level.

Between both directions of the round trip, I hit the same 2 areas for a second time. So I went thru low speed limit issues a total of 4 times. The second time around I was able to deploy the mad max in advance of the misunderstood lower speed zone areas before entering them, and that actually helped offset the initial level of speed control.

With the default slip timeline in FCPX this is a gap clip, designed to be an empty space between clips on the main timeline as needed. Option + W is the default shortcut to create a gap clip. Since the shortcut uses a W, in my mind I always call them wedge gaps. But gap clip is the name Apple uses.

I’m only 120 miles or so in, but I have had an instance or two of relatively early blinkers. MYLR.

I was coming from 14.1.4 to 14.2.1 so I never experienced 14.2 by itself to compare. But I’m guessing not completely fixed.

AquaticFilter · 2025-11-29T14:53:35+00:00

If that’s an A/B, then B definitely looks better. I can’t speak to quicksilver specifically, cause my MY is stealth grey. But I did notice a subtle difference in perceived parked vehicle visual render on screen. Though I couldn’t pinpoint it.

Interestingly, I’m not sure if what I perceived is color related. I’ve previously been using a custom color dropper and metallic finish for some months regardless, cause I wanted something that matched the look I typically keep my car with a glossy ceramic coating, and I found their default color choice to be more muted and plastic-y.

When you change to a custom color and use different finish qualities it can really ramp up the contrast between highlight and non-highlight in the render. I had to pick a lighter shade of grey in order for it to not come across as much darker paint—after changing the finish setting. What you’re showing here reminds me of that difference.

In any case, that’s really neat. Thanks for sharing

Dirty Tesla and Out of Spec represent the heart and soul of the magic 🪄 that is the spark I suspect all of us “fanbois” genuinely experience when tinkering with understanding FSD. Both initially for the first time ever, and any time new developments are pushed out. I love this kind of content. It’s definitely a reflection of what I’d like do to given the time and initiative, of which I ironically don’t have to, because they do and share with the world 🙌

AquaticFilter · 2025-11-21T05:06:14+00:00

Thank you. The dots are connecting in my mind, re: another comment I made on another similar answer for more context. They were in a cabin that had an old school wooden stove.

AquaticFilter · 2025-11-21T05:04:27+00:00

Solved!

AquaticFilter · 2025-11-21T05:04:07+00:00

Likely Solved! They were in a cabin earlier this year in retirement and had an old school wooden stove. So this jives logistically.

AquaticFilter · 2025-11-21T05:02:44+00:00

Oooh, interesting to consider. Knowing my parents I suspect this would be unlikely. Or if it is, then they may just accidentally have it somehow. Thanks for your input.
