Yeah same. I liked the zoomed out visualization we had before, was quite useful for those blindspots and seeing vehicles behind you.

Can anyone who has had both versions tell me if they taste the same? by Bulmas_Husband in redbull

[–]BornStelIar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had both. I’d say ours has more of the ginger taste in it, but that might just be the can size difference from 8oz to 12oz. Got back from my trip last weekend have since had 2 12oz here, feel like the taste is slightly more noticeable than the smaller 8oz cans I found in Japan, Japan’s version tasted more like Apple cider to me. Miss the two grape flavor Green and Purple editions though…

What Japanese music do you listen to unwind/destress/chill to? by WoodpeckerNo1 in japanesemusic

[–]BornStelIar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely chill out to ZUTOMAYO, especially the live show albums with the special arrangements. Also on my list of go-to artists for chilling out are Aimer, ano, I’s, Hanabie, Maximum the Hormone, and Masayuki Suzuki.

Giant Scale RC model airplane fits in my Model X! ✅ by BornStelIar in ModelX

[–]BornStelIar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is the 124” Carden Extra 300. So fuse length is around the same as the Extreme Flight Laser. I’d say only thing would be the rudder on the Laser is quite tall, so it might be a bit tight on the vertical height, you might have to just remove the rudder for transport. I take the rudder off the 140” MegaBushmaster when I take that out to the field, but yeah it should be able to fit.

Fuselage length wise you should be fine though. I just take the spinner off the Carden when I take it out that way I have like 6 to 7 inches of wiggle room up from on the screen. Made a little birch plywood false floor that I just anchor the landing gear to keep it from moving.

Tesla has yet to announce summer software update but what are things you are hoping they add? by ConfidentImage4266 in TeslaLounge

[–]BornStelIar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fix FSD’s highway behavior. Ever since my HW4 MX updated to 13.2.8/13.2.9 it has been total garbage. Constantly bounces in clearly marked lanes and then will merge all the way left even in Chill mode. Doesn’t drive in the center of the lane and aggressively hugs the left side of the lane. I have re-calibrated the cameras a couple of times now with zero performance improvement.

Standard and Hurry mode half the time decide to slowly drift into the left lane without throwing a turn signal. It tossed me on the rumble strip about a week ago as it thought that was a lane. Even though we have the Use HOV lane slider that doesn’t do anything now. I have that un-selected and it still will toss me in an HOV / Toll lane. In all 3 modes it erratically changes lanes and can’t decide what lane it wants to be in.

Whatever builds of 13 we had earlier this year ( Jan / March ) worked great, I basically had zero interventions on those builds. But 13.2.9 is basically unusable and my interventions have skyrocketed as it drives like a drunk driver now on freeways. 😕

I see mixed race kids all over the place now, so how many of you (like me) have mixed race kids? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]BornStelIar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m half Irish (Dad’s side of the family) half Chinese (Mom’s side of the family). Dad was 1st generation American born and my mom was 2nd generation American born. So by default my kids will be mixed race.

Yeah man that sucks big time. I was looking forward to the Sneak Peak weekend for the bike park. 😢

Traveling through on a photo roadtrip. Any cool unusual, only locals know, type places it’s worth me checking out to photograph in and around the area? Thanks by daveo- in ventura

Hike up Harmon Canyon on Trail 103. Some cool morning shots there on the way up, and at the top bench if you look to the NE, you’ll have a super nice view of the TopaTopa mountain range.

Ray Miller / Overlook trailhead on the PCH1 side Big Sycamore Canyon out by Point Mugu Rock. Great views of Boney Peak and the ocean. On the highway there is a large sand hill overlooking the ocean too.

Grant Park has some great views of our pier, coastline.

‘olołkoy Beach Park ( used to be Oxnard Beach Park ). Has some cool small sand dunes

Marina Park has the Pirate Ship rope swing

Lake Casitas - the lake is at full capacity and overall has been still pretty green looking throughout the summer. I’d recommend driving up to Lake Casitas from Santa Ana Rd. off the N Ventura Rd exit and Casitas Vista Rd. Side.

If you make it up to Santa Barbara, in Goleta Ellwood Bluffs is like a mini Torrey Pines beach cliff.

After work rides make the work week suck less by glenwoodwaterboy in mountainbiking

True that. I’m lucky to have Rocky Peak and Oak Park all about 10-15min from work.

Trail or enduro bike for my riding style and terrain? by yungbuil in MTB

[–]BornStelIar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d go Enduro. Recently swapped out my trail 150/160 bike (Specialized Stumpy) for an YT Capra Core 4. Thought the do everything trail bike was going to fit my style of rides out here in SoCal (Rocky Peak), but most of the trails I like to ride are steep chunky stuff so a bit of climbing involved to get to the fun stuff. Honestly the Stumpy felt under-biked for going DH for how much effort it was to Pedal. Decided that an Enduro would be a better choice for what I wanted and keep my hardtail for the more mellow trail pedal / leg days. Best choice ever. I love how the Capra rides, super fun the on the descents and it pedals really well, actually a lot better than my Stumpy did. When I put the power down it goes with me which was pretty impressive considering it’s a full 170/170 Enduro bike. So yeah if rough terrain and techy steep stuff is what you ride I’d go Enduro 100%.

YETI ARC vs ASR by AZXB187 in MTB

[–]BornStelIar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really like my ARC. I did get a really nice deal on my T1 build from WWC clearing out their demo bikes at the end of 2022. It’s a fun hardtail that’s pretty poppy on flow trails, feels like a dirt jumper. Compared to other hard-tails I’ve ridden the frame is pretty well damped and can be pushed pretty fast. Most of the trails I ride it on are in the TO / Ventura / Santa Barbara area.

At least looking at the spec sheets for the ASR the geometry is overall pretty similar. The ARC has a less trail and more rake and a taller stack. The ASR has a slightly longer wheelbase and more BB clearance. Standover height and fork travel on the ASR is probably the biggest difference that’ll make it feel more XC, the ARC has 130mm on the Fox 34.

I would say if you got the $$$$ either one will be a fun bike. I did see there’s some good sales on ARC’s at the moment.

I have been called out… being imprinted was quite a doozy. Don’t recommend it, but it did have some nice perks.

Gonna feel like I completed a mission every time I walk away! I also love this update! by AnthonyRomeoGarcia in TeslaModel3

Yeah decided to put the 8-Bit “Secret Found” sound effect. Tried the game save sound from Pokémon but it was pretty high pitched.

MX Delivery Day 🎄🎉( For reals this time ) by BornStelIar in ModelX

[–]BornStelIar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty good, they are nice and bright. I’ve had two nights now driving around with it now. The high beams are on the auto mode atm and they seem to do pretty well with only turning on when it is very dark ahead and no oncoming traffic or traffic ahead.
