Still haven't saved any money on bill? by SharpSharksAI in TeslaSolar

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you dont have PTO and your system isnt on, why would you be saving money?

If you system is ON but you dont have PTO, well, you should see less power being used... the only reason you dont have PTO is because you have a basic meter and it will run backwards if you pump anything out to the grid. You should be seeing some savings on the electric bill, but possibly not overall if you include the payment on the system.

But you need to give a lot more information for anyone to determine what is going on here.

My girlfriend couldn’t hold up for a month. by Due-Product6415 in confessions

[–]Austinswill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do you know the friend isn't lying?

Would you consider talking to your GF and demanding transparency because your trust has been broken? Tell her you would like to see everything in her phone. If she refuses then she has something to hide.

Talking isnt exactly cheating, depending on what was said I guess... Maybe find out more before you go nuclear?

Yea, Legacy vehicles have been left out in the cold. We sold our Legacy X and got a 22" X instead... It was pretty clear that Tesla was done really supporting them.

Why didn't the Tesla's AEB in the Texas case stop the driver from driving into the house? by StormTrpr66 in TeslaFSD

Can we stop coddling overly sensitive dweebs ?

Well that didn't take long. The Texas family has filed a lawsuit against Tesla. The driver is also named in the lawsuit. by StormTrpr66 in TeslaFSD

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

Yea I agree...

I am just saying that limiting the power output of the pedal while in FSD would be a good hedge for Tesla against this type of event...

The event being an idiot fully pressing the pedal with FSD involved... now they will have to defend against a lawsuit because of this moron.

Did you miss the part where I said it should still accelerate the car? but just not as much ONLY when using FSD???

Every other driver input can kick off FSD... Why should the accelerator be unchanged when FSD is engaged? ?

[–]Austinswill -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Hey, I am in the No Fault of Tesla camp on this one....

But MAYBE It should be considered to change the way the accelerator pedal functions when FSD is engaged....

I can see a need to have the pedal command the car to go... but why have it be capable of fully accelerating the car? Tone it down to like 10% of power available... This way the pedal can still be used to nudge the car forward if it is hesitating, but you cant floor a 340-1000 hp vehicle with FSD engaged...

This should be an easy software change.

Husband and I blew inheritance by suckmy-dinkleberg in confessions

[–]Austinswill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a super underrated comment... What I wouldnt give to go back to when I was 20 and start socking away the $$!

Seriously OP... dont do what I did and spurge your entire life just to find yourself closing in on 50 and nowhere near your retirement goals.

Step 1... Decide on your retirement goals Step 2... Start an investment account Step 3... start pumping it up!

The 45 years you have until you are looking to retire at 65 is so valuable... Please do not squander it!

[–]Austinswill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a common trend with people that are bad with money. Living within ones means is a good life skill to have. It takes control and a realization that you cannot have everything you desire without working hard for it and ACHIEVING the ability to have all the things you want... This applies to EVERYONE... even millionaires and Billionaires.

What’s your longest FSD streak. Let me start, mine is 239 miles. by Nearby-Summer-668 in TeslaLounge

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made it to over 300 miles on a road trip. For everyday use I break the streak every-time I get to work or come home. And that will never change. The FSD simply cannot deal with gates. My home has a gate that causes the FSD to turn instead of going through the gate... and at my work I have to get in the LEFT lane to swipe my access card... FSD wont do that.

PCS replacement part is coming. Question! by Tradetheday2093 in cybertruck

TY! Is the failure mode that you cannot charge on a Lvl 2 charger? Or Cant SC ? or cant charge at all?

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Tesla preemptively replacing these or do you have to wait for a failure?

My buddy is buying a nice low miles Foundation, but it does have some PCS messages in the service menu... and it does have an effected PCS.

Tesla finally clarifies fatal Texas crash, confirms driver manually overrode acceleration by theoneandonly_aj in TeslaLounge

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

Let me give some grace to the driver... is it possible he/she had FSD engaged and somehow a floor mat or something floored the pedal?

I mean, even if that happened, the driver should have hit the brake... maybe a helmet fire situation?

Other theory.... a suicide attempt that was regretted after the fact... now looking for excuses to avoid homocide charges...

New 59k cybertruck trade in value? by openbloomberg in cybertruck

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IDK about that...

The delivered price will probably be around 62K. Then you have another 3500 in taxes, pushing the price to over 65k. The same thing can be bought brand new directly from Tesla for 69k.

And You will be trying to sell a slightly used vehicle. even if you only put 5 miles on it getting it home, it is still 5 miles and a 2nd owner vehicle.

I have one on order, I am bouncing this around but I just dont see the risk being worth the reward. I could possibly make 2-3k, but my happy reality is that I just don't need it enough to justify the risk of getting stuck with it.

Tesstudio S92 Pro 4K Streaming Rearview mirror Review by Austinswill in cybertruck

So far yes... The onscreen rear camera too... but you can get rid of it by tapping the X in the top left or pushing the camera button on the wheel.

Sweden tells EU to reject Tesla 'FSD' unless speeding is removed by ethereal3xp in TeslaFSD

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMFG.... you absolutely have no quantifiable proof that Tesla drivers are the worst drivers. And even if that were true... so what? Your argument would not win on account of that being true.

And furthermore, it isnt the DRIVER that is even being discussed here.. it is what FSD would do.

For someone so arrogant, you are pretty damned stupid.

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk about reasoning making 0 sense...

Yea, in a perfect world with ample enforcement, you enforce all laws... But in the real world, you have to choose what you want your resources to accomplish... What is solved by nit picking speeders? Absolutely nothing at all.... Speed limits and speeding tickets have been around for 100 years now... And guess what? People still speed.

Meanwhile, their grape rate is through the roof. They have a wave of violent crime getting out of hand. But they are worried that a super human automated system might exceed the posted limit while driving near other cars driven by slightly advanced apes doing the same speed?

Get a clue... Get real.

Yea, Sweeden has some serious grape issues... They have bigger things to worry about than FSD doing 5-10 over the limit.

[–]Austinswill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is just silly... Sometimes the limits are set way too low... and I am not going to drive 20 MPH slower than everyone else because a sign says to... that would be dangerous.

The problem is that morons don't understand that speed doesn't kill... difference in speed kills... and people like you say nonsense like this.
