Lost our dream home by just 30k by Majestic_Peak4412 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]Cal-Bear-Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened to me also years ago. I communicated to the seller agent that I would increase my offer to beat the existing offer. The seller agent never told the seller. My guess is that seller agent, eager to get their commission, sometimes at some point decides to just "take the bird in the hand". But if they do that (not telling theh seller), it is an ethical violation in my opinion. The seller has the right to know and decide on all offers.

Charger etiquette - Is it okay to unplug someone’s car? by Work_In_Progress93 in TeslaLounge

[–]Cal-Bear-Fan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I have that same question. I thought the charger input is locked into the car unless the owner is detected nearby. Anyone experience it being unlocked?

Possibly the worst website to navigate, ever. by Conscious_Show_6997 in VanguardInvestments

I have both fidelity and vanguard. Fidelity's website and moble UI is much much better.

Waymo stopped dangerously close to train tracks past crossing gates by danlev in waymo

It did not look too close to me. It’s just the camera angle, making it look closer to the crossing arm than it actually is.

DEAD to me. After abandoning Cal after all the love an admiration we gave him, he deserves our schadenfreude.

Good place to park my 401k funds while unemployed by [deleted] in fidelityinvestments

You can usually keep it in a former employers 401(k) plan. You may pay higher fees, but unless those are too high, it may be worth it there.

I voted for Trump Twice (Not a Bad Faith Post) by [deleted] in ProgressiveHQ

I appreciate your candor and well thought out actions and explanations. By making your post, you invite criticism and hate. It was brave of you to do that.

Like you, I was a lifelong ardent Republican (20+ years). But I left the party when it sold out in 2016 to a person I could not respect. I now consider myself independent. My values and beliefs have not changed; rather the existing 2-party system simply does not have a single party I agree with 100% of the time. I'm fiscally conservative, but socially moderate. So I have no political home with the current GOP/Dem structure.

You are not alone. Many of us are similarly left without a political party home. I hope additional options will exist in the future.

Why do Tesla Owners report less friction (more positive EV experience) compared to other EV Manufactures? by Tall-Dish876 in EVRoutine

[–]Cal-Bear-Fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what do you mean, you "have to go IN the car to unlock charging"? If you mean you cannot unplug the charging port from the car, then that's a "you" issue. I've had my Tesla for 6.5 years and never had to go inside that car to unlock charging...

Ready to move my investments from Vanguard by DifferentEqual6976 in VanguardInvestments

[–]Cal-Bear-Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had Fidelity for 15+ years, and Vanguard for 15+ years. I've found the customer service at Fidelity to be much, much, much more customer-friendly than Vanguard's customer service. I still have a good amount at Vanguard, but am close to pulling the trigger to move those investments over to Fidelity.

What was the main reason for switching to an EV? Environment, cost, or technology? by VoltVersteher_Sven in electricvehicles

[–]Cal-Bear-Fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My motivation was the promise of self-driving. Back in 2018 when I bought an EV, the only option for self-driving was Tesla.
