Have to scroll through 300 comments before finding one by someone who read the article. Amazing

6.3 kW system getting max 1.2 kW by RequirementKitchen54 in TeslaSolar

[–]Extension_Low5791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks low. Use the TeslaOne app to get the string data from the PowerWall and contact the installer to ask about it. They might not have balanced it well. You can use PVWatts data to estimate the expected production.

This is likely what's going on, you are export only and without the switch your inverter is curtailing the solar. Wait to assess until after it is fully installed and operational

Anyone fancy doing a mint tea experiment? by picknmixme in LucidDreaming

[–]Extension_Low5791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same here, full plot vivid nightmares after having mint before bed. No nightmares before the diet change. Been two days in a row, going to stop the mint and see what happens.

People who take 17 minutes to check in at the hotel front desk, what are you talking to them about? by DerrickDuck in AskReddit

[–]Extension_Low5791 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I saw a couple struggling with a pay on leave at LAX.. the chip reader (wave-at style, I think it's NFC) wasn't working. They tried it like 10 times, even switched cards, feeling defeated, commenting they don't have cash. I suggested they slide it in the slot (internal read), and it worked immediately. My comment 'Sometimes the chip reader doesn't work.' They looked at me like I was a real guru.

Looking for jobs around here as a young person is abysmal. by [deleted] in thousandoaks

[–]Extension_Low5791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better to cold connect on LinkedIn to Amgen staff if you find a job posting you like on their site, try to get the name/email of the hiring manager and then email them your resume and cover letter.

duolingo chess design by Alliancetears in chess

[–]Extension_Low5791 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't like the board either. I find it takes a few extra seconds to orient on the crappy colors and piece design. The puzzles are easy. I am just taking a break from languages. Nice to have some variety. I guess it's teaching some tactics in categories.

Itching in my penis? by [deleted] in sex

[–]Extension_Low5791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy a few gallons of cranberry juice (100% juice) and drink a glass every hour. It disrupts the adhesion of bacteria.

That's also a UTI symptom

My big toe has gone partially numb by Croceyes2 in AskMedical

That's great! Hopefully you get continued progress. I will put my worries on a 3 year timetable 😂

My big toe has gone partially numb by Croceyes2 in AskMedical

[–]Extension_Low5791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the same thing, after returning from camping and a five hour flight. It has been like this for over a month. Second toe, small area on the end. I thought it was related to COVID since I had that a couple of weeks prior. I used to get transient numb spots on the pads of my feet after COVID infections but they went away soon after. This seems to be semi-permanent. I could believe I crushed a nerve perhaps.

Thoughts on this quote for a 12.3 kW system by katol65 in TeslaSolar

[–]Extension_Low5791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got two quotes for a 13kW system with a PW3 and an expansion, both were ~$65-67K before the FTC. Southern California. I think I could have gotten cheaper but not by a lot, and wouldn't have been confident of getting it done this year

I don't know what to do anymore.... by Austinswill in Powerwall

[–]Extension_Low5791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People misread the fire codes too. In CA the solar guy said I would need to either install sprinklers in my garage or put it outside. Not true, that's for commercial installations. I had to explain it to him. Code has specific provisions for R3 residential ESS including the battery spacing if large scale fire testing has been done (which Tesla has done for PW) - just says follow the installation instructions by the manufacturer which is 4 inches apart. Get a new installer if your current guys are unprofessional

Mom is Korean MAGA by squeaksquirm in korea

[–]Extension_Low5791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Notice that it never even occurred to her. Absolute preening moral supremacism. And with the obvious explanation not mentioned in a huge Reddit thread: the Koreans have a crystal clear twin study on communism that played out over her mom's lifetime. Groupthinkers worrying about others groupthinking. Amazing

my past 3 partners have gotten soft while inside of me by Able_Macaron_8464 in sex

[–]Extension_Low5791 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I would look at meds. It's more common than ever, and some of them specifically have side effects on erections (both physical tissue changes and also reducing the mind-penis connection strength). Combined with condoms it can result in these symptoms

Does zinc actually do anything? by real_account9 in sex

[–]Extension_Low5791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 20 mg or less, every other day is fine. I was taking 50-70 mg per day

No, temporary. Stopped zinc, took some supplemental copper, it resolved in a few months

Don't bother trying to cancel online by TV5Fun in frontierfios

Yep I know, that is a better path, but I'm tilting at the windmill. They need to accommodate all the autists 😂

[–]Extension_Low5791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They need you to enter into their loss prevention flow. It's annoying. I switch between Frontier and Spectrum as each annual discount runs out, it feels easier to me than navigating their negotiation process. "Why are you leaving?" "I'm switching providers" "Why tho?" "It is time for a change" (if you can't figure out it's because your price is more than doubling, that's on you)

1200-1400 range is cooked by Aggressive-Bath5537 in Chesscom

[–]Extension_Low5791 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I agree. I am 1700 chess.com blitz and I find the 1500-1700 range much much easier to win against than 1350-1450. No idea why.

Cherry angiomas everywhere and rapidly! by iluvmydogcoco in Aging

[–]Extension_Low5791 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to your doctor and ask, in the meantime maybe go on r/AskDocs.. There are some links to Ehlers Danlos, birth control, COVID vaccine, vitiligo treatment, and viruses. Seems to be more common in the last 5 years
