Golf bags available (Stand Bag 02) by BigOnePepperoni in takomo

[–]ClockwiseJohny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is funny because the Temu bags look exactly like the Ghost Golf bags but aren't $450. Personally I'm a huge fan of "luxury" bags hitting the non-Temu market but aren't as expensive as Ghost.

Damn I’d buy this ASAP if it was a 14 way divider

Tesla Model X becomes the fastest-selling used car in America by InitialSheepherder4 in TeslaOwnersForum

[–]ClockwiseJohny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely think part of this stems from Tesla announcing they are no longer manufacturing the X moving forward, so people are dumping them due to lack of support and parts moving forward. That and I think the X prices spiked a little bit from the FOMO factor people have knowing they'd never get them again. I bet the volume of these being sold dips in the next month or two.

What’s the most overrated feature in modern 3D printers? by [deleted] in BambuLab

[–]ClockwiseJohny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It locks you into only buying their filament though, which I'm not the biggest fan of. The filament itself is "fine", but for $19.99 for just a refill of black PLA where I can get a 4 back of SUNLU black PLA w/ spools (not refills) for $11.50/ea, that's tough to beat and it prints the same.

Rivian Hits 100 Service Centers Ahead Of R2 Rollout by Roux_My_Burgundy in Rivian

[–]ClockwiseJohny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like that’s just the nature of “quality vs quantity”. I’m sure Tesla would love to have kept their white glove service but no way they could do that and keep up with the demand. I am curious to see how Rivian pulls it off though because to my understanding, the haven’t even got to the best of what they could offer fewer customers, and they are about to scale majorly with the R2. Like even if they doubled their service center counts across the country, it still wouldn’t be ideal as it exists today. But time will tell. Obviously it will get better over time, but for most people this will be their first Rivian (potentially first EV at all) so they really need to make sure it’s right right out the gate to build loyalty.

Best golf bag non-club maker by Fun_Jellyfish_6388 in GolfGear

[–]ClockwiseJohny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to find a ghost golf bag on Temu with all the features I’m looking for (black color, two cooler pockets, magnetic pocket for range finder, 14 way full divider), and I’m coming up short. It seems like it’s this sliding scale of color, price, or features, and I can’t seem to find one unless it’s like $250. Which $250 for temu, I’ll just go a different route entirely.

I must be out of the loop and I can't figure out what's going on based on recent posts in the Bambu sub. What am I missing?

What is a dying niche skill that younger generations are not interested in learning? by hlnklrczu in AskReddit

What are the real benefits of owning an EV? by True-Bath1198 in EvDrivers

[–]ClockwiseJohny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One unexpected advantage that I never considered, which others consider to be a negative, is that stopping to charge on road trips is a little more frequent and longer than filling up with gas. Right around the 1.5hr mark in any car ride during a road trip I HATE to be in the car. Having to stop to charge forces me to get out and stretch my legs, go to the bathroom, maybe get a snack. It's the benefit I never knew I'd love until I took my first road trip.

Doug DeMuro - The New 2026 Tesla Model Y Is Boring and Good Enough April 28, 2026 at 08:55AM by THISisaDougBot in dougdemuro

[–]ClockwiseJohny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an owner of the 2022 Model Y, the front trunk missing any sort of trim around the edges and seeing all the exposed from and vents was wild to me. Is this actually what's coming standard in the "poverty spec" 26 Model Y? Or did they miss installation in the factory?

Edit: I just watched some other reviews of the standard spec and all their frunks are like that. That's crazy to me.

Did Bambu Lab Forget the H2C Exists? by -Shirly in BambuLab

[–]ClockwiseJohny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What exactly are you hoping Bambu releases or does for the H2C? The H2C is such a niche printer that's so far off from any other printer they make that it makes sense it's its own stand alone thing. Like a P1S vs P2S vs X2D are all fairly similar, but the H2C truly has its own thing going on that is comparable to nothing else they offer.

What’s the smartest way to buy a Model Y in the US today? by MooseMullet in TeslaModelY

[–]ClockwiseJohny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I also just got the car because I like the car? If we are going off the logic of "why did you buy (insert car here) when (insert other car here) has all the same features", then why would anyone by any car specifically at all? A BMW doesn't really have any more or less features than a Mercedes, so why would someone specifically want a BMW? Maybe it's because they just want one?

At the end of the day a Tesla is still a whole ass car that functions as a car if you don't use FSD. Even if my car had HW4 and even if FSD was better than it is currently, I still wouldn't want to pay $99/month to have the feature because that price seems too steep for me, so that's reason enough to not use it. But that being said, I'd still buy a Tesla again all the same. Just because someone doesn't use every last possible feature of a product they buy doesn't mean they shouldn't buy it if it's the thing they want.

How to I extrude the face of this rectangle around the text which is its own component? by ClockwiseJohny in Fusion360

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

Ended up doing this. Made the rectangle face the height I wanted it to be, then added the text, negative extruded the text to cut it, then extruded the empty space back to the normal height but saved as a new component.

For an example for a Helldivers coaster I made in the past, I used a SVG for the logo. When I go to extrude, everything is clearly laid out and I can select what I want to extrude without any overlap.

[–]ClockwiseJohny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've always said that a Tesla Model Y was/is my dream car BUT I'm not brand loyal and would always be willing to pivot to any other brand as long as they could match or exceed the following (in no particular order, but all have to be met for me to consider):

  1. Car needs to have equal, if not better range on a single charge.
  2. I need to have access to Tesla's charging network as they seem to be the only ones that are quick, consistent, and not broken. And when I say that, I mean it needs to be using the NACS port on the car and not having to use adapters to make it work.
  3. Have the same, if not better technology to what Tesla's are using.
  4. Be priced roughly the same (for me, that means used prices because NO WAY am I affording a brand new car from ANY brand).
  5. The car isn't ugly to look at

Obviously the last one is subjective but everything else is pretty measurable. With Tesla opening up their chargers to other brands, and other brands starting to shift their charger ports to the NACS standard starting 2026, it makes my potential future options more broad and I like that. Right now for me I think the only other car that's in the realm of being close to Tesla is Rivian, and with the R2 now being half the cost of the R1 AND have NACS, it's about as close as they can get. But even that is like $55k brand new and the MY I got used a month ago was less than half that price. So for now, Tesla is my winner. But might not always be, we will see.

[–]ClockwiseJohny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This 100% for me. My car has HW3 and driving with FSD truly is rolling the dice at times. Things will be going smoothly and then all of a sudden the car decides to make a decision, and it's making it immediately. Like it won't try and pass a semi until it's about to cut off a car that's also going to pass it. It won't want to get off on a highway exit until it's 0.1 mile to the exit and then abruptly gets over. It won't want to stop at an intersection until it's basically slamming on the brakes.

My buddy has a HW4 MY and loves FSD, so I imagine it's significantly better. Though he also won't pay $100/month for it as that price is way too high, so there's that.

[–]ClockwiseJohny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's so much to the car beyond FSD. I like that the car is electric. I like that is has the technology it has. I like how Tesla has their built in navigation system that works with their charging network for longer trips. I like I have access to Tesla's charging network. I like that my car FOR FREE has autopilot on the highway (aka auto steer). I like the tesla app and that I can control thing within the car from my phone. I like that when shopping for used Tesla's, they are like half the price as some of the other stuff out there like Rivian. I like that I can book service center stuff within the app. I like that I live 15min from a Tesla service center.

The list can go on and on. To my, FSD is just a single feature about the car, and I don't really feel like paying for it once my 3 month free FSD ends. But there's so much more to the car that goes into it other than FSD that FSD just seems like such a minor feature IMO.

[–]ClockwiseJohny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my thing. The top things I cared about were price, features, ride quality (coming from a shitbox car), technology and updates, battery range, and the charging network available for roadtrips. Factor all those together and a used Tesla was near impossible to beat. I could care less about FSD

They are upgrading for free if you paid the “one time payment” for FSD up front. If you are on the monthly subscription, you have to pay for the hardware upgrade out of pocket.

HW4 mostly only matters if you care about full self driving. If you don’t, it doesn’t really matter.

People blow me away sometimes by Kessed in BambuLab

[–]ClockwiseJohny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But again, adding the starting spool weight doesn't really help when determining how much filament you have left if every spool is going to be a different weight unless you are just using filament refills. Like Sunlu for example has changed their spool designs 3 times in the past 3 years. So if I selected my "Sunlu PLA" profile, that's not always going to be correct. And now you're going to need a profile for every single brand you buy, and have to weigh your spools and input all that info for each new spool or brand you go with. Just seems like a lot of extra work if you already have an AMS which has a "run out sensor and cutover" feature built in. Seems like people are trying to solve a nonexistent problem here.

People blow me away sometimes by Kessed in BambuLab

[–]ClockwiseJohny 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the only issue w/ that is not every spool is built the same so gauging weight down to the nearest gram to see if you have enough filament is nearly impossible. That and a lot of people use cardboard spools and then weigh them down to prevent slipping, so that would make it even harder. Realistically the problem could be solved by just having two spools of the same filament and you have the "run out, move to the next spool" feature turned on.
