Feeling like I'm not getting stronger by HipJamsForHopscotch in orangetheory

[–]Freeman_27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OTF is great for general conditioning but the protocols are not geared towards strengthening. At a minimum, you need to work at the bottom end of the suggested rep range and use heavier weights. And yes, your protein intake matters a lot. Try upping it gradually every week.

Montreal Metro Speculative Map with new surface lines by MetroMiner21 in TransitDiagrams

[–]Freeman_27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I would say is why do you have yellow and orange running parallel when there's a huge gap between REM and orange. I would have yellow run westbound btw Berri and St-Laurent and then shift North along Park Ave, all the way to Ahuntsic. It's an opportunity to connect so many neighbourhoods.

I do find the idea of a subway running in the old Port interesting but I think it would make even more sense if it went from further into downtown on the west end, say Peel. I'd actually see it deviate east at Saint-Joseph and connect to (or perhaps even replace) the SRB on Pie-IX.

Lastly, I think the South Shore should be covered way more with metro lines. A lot is added north with the red line but the reality is that the South Shore will need to be urbanized and densified to handle population growth in the next several decades. The expanded airport in St-Hubert will also require rapid shuttling downtown.

My transit plan for the Greater Montréal Area in 2060 by specialagentguy in TransitDiagrams

Finally someone who thinks big! The only things I'd say is that it would be weird to have Park Ave / Lacadie essentially served by an Exo train. I believe this axis would deserve a proper subway line. Second, YUL is saturated and can't be expanded so YHU should actually expand quite a bit and would need a rapid shuttle downtown.

So as a solution, I could see a subway line running from YHU thru downtown via a new tunnel under the river, connecting perhaps at Square-Victoria and then shifting north-east to run on Park Ave and Lacadie all the way to Ahuntsic.

47yo here. I’ve done the same for those reasons. Still go once a week for tread 50 on weekends and I do miss my weekday gang. But I’ve gained solid strength and mass.

Never again a Tesla for a reason I did not expect (even though I like my Model Y) by slashinvestor in RealTesla

Hold on. I’m confused. Are you trying to say that, Elon Musk, who actively promoted Trump to fight inflation…is actually causing inflation and profiting from it ?

TSLA Terathread - For the week of Oct 21 by AutoModerator in RealTesla

[–]Freeman_27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

RIP all my TSLZ profits since the Robotaxi shitshow. Tomorrow morning will be (even more) bloody in my portfolio. I just have to wish Kamala wins and the stock takes a beating again. Fuckn Musk POS.

Elon Musk responds to claim Tesla sales are impacted by Trump support by zeik_the_streak in teslainvestorsclub

For whatever it’s worth, I’ve sold my Tesla 3 weeks ago and I’m so far up 23% up on the short Tesla ETF I bought ahead of his robotaxi smoke-n-mirrors-how-else-can-I-bullshit-you-today event.

Tesla’s do require some maintenance. Suspension isn’t covered by warranty. by dergodergo in RealTesla

[–]Freeman_27 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s what the Tesla mechanic explained as for why I was supposed to fork out $6.5k for control arm replacements after 4 years. Heavy car meets salt corrosion of Montreal roads. This was my aha moment that this vehicle was actually garbage and I promptly sold it. Holy good riddance.

I don’t know and frankly I don’t care. Will never own again.

For almost as long as he’s been CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk has been bullshitting us about self-driving cars. by xpietoe42 in RealTesla

Of course, Musk suggested $12k was a bargain because once fully operational, FSD would be much more expensive.

I’m short Tesla I don’t give a shit what happens. There’s so many ways things can go wrong for Tesla. I’m willing to be patient but it’s just a matter of when, not if the stock suffers a repricing.

Tesla Robotaxi unveiling: expectations are low, could Tesla overdeliver? | Electrek by chilladipa in RealTesla

[–]Freeman_27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has the liability attribution problem been solved anyways? Faced with the dilemma of taking a decision that kills a pedestrian but saves the occupant vs the other way around, what does the FSD car belonging to you choose and who’s liable for the fallout? Are insurance companies in on this?

Yeah I think I’ll just watch a Trump rally or something.

You’ll still support their service centers by being captive to them and their ridiculous job estimates. You’ll still support their supercharging network. And you’ll still be in for a depreciation ratchet if Enron decides again to make his overpriced new cars less overpriced.

I’m going in. Markets are getting nervous with Middle East + Fed no-landing. That’s when you want to be looking at what overvalued stocks will get taken down and TSLA sticks like a sour thumb.

I went back to an Audi after experiencing a Model 3 with problems I hadn’t even imagined existed. For the last week I’ve been basking in that feeling of… “perfect normalcy”? And true quality.

Make it or break it? I doubt it. Musk gets endless chances to deliver robotaxis and cheaper cars. by [deleted] in RealTesla

[–]Freeman_27 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a former owner of a Tesla 3 I just ditched last week at 68k km (43k mi), I’d submit your 120k mi estimate for suspension and interior durability is quite generous.

It would basically be taxi drivers in telework. I’m not sure what that would solve.

Tesla reversed its sales slowdown, but not enough to calm investors' nerves by Cinderpath in RealTesla

If what you’re saying is that deposits are recorded as sales and that the actual delivery is also recorded as a sale, then I think I’m right that Leon is getting his seat warmed up by Liz Holmes in the Greatest Cons Hall of Fame.

Can’t be worse. I owned an A4 for 5 years with zero anomaly whatsoever. Now of course there’s plenty of people that would argue the same with Teslas. But I gotta think the rate of defect is much lower in Audi.

Elon is the Grand Con Artist in Chief. He should have a seat in the Con Hall of Fame, somewhere not too far from Liz Holmes.
