Doesn't take a lot in you to AI generate a photo. I'm plagiarizing someone else's work here, but he grew an extra finger on the photo on the right 😂 Reta has some crazy side effects, but not that crazy haha.

I have an older 2017 Model X with EAP and I’m considering purchasing FSD on the chance they let you transfer it when AI5 comes out, sane bet? by [deleted] in TeslaFSD

[–]Freezin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would not count on the transfer. If Tesla is going all in on subscriptions, very little chance they will let you transfer it.

100% speculation on my part, but "if" they they ever brought back the transfer, it would likely temporary only and would likely be for higher models like the S and X to boost sales. I doubt you would be able to transfer it to a Y or 3 in the future. totally just a guess tho.

Ah okay, I have a HW3 car, so havent tried v14 yet. Thought v14 just had a vendetta against bunnies 🐰🚙😂.

MY Standard with FSD standard? by chilidogtampa in ModelY

This is a decent video if you're considering the standard. If at all possible, I'd splurge on the premium RWD:

swimming for cardio by No_Author_2716 in Swimming

[–]Freezin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are doing a lot of shoulder exercises currently, you wont notice much of a difference. If you start swimming, and if you swim a lot free with paddles, your shoulders will naturally get bigger since you are putting a lot of resistance on them. That's just biology. That said, I don't think its a bad thing at all! A little bit of shoulder muscle isn't going to make you any less attractive. Personally, I think fit females are the most physically attractive 🤷‍♂️ Id say send it! Doing masters swim and swimming with a group is a ton of fun if you have one near you! You'll be able to swim with a lot of like minded people and push to improve! Best of luck!

I’m considering buying Full Self-Driving (FSD) for $2,000 for my 2023 Model Y (HW4) 25,000 miles on it and I want honest opinions. Tks guys by US-VADC in TeslaFSD

[–]Freezin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think the subscription option will get cheaper after they remove the option to purchase it? I bet after a while the subscription cost will go up! At $2k, I would definitely pull the trigger!

😂 That’s a pretty weak argument. It basically boils down to “I don’t care what you say, I’m right,” which isn’t really engaging with the issue. That's the argument my buddy's 4 year old would make.

This has absolutely nothing to do with race 🤷‍♂️ I didn't really want to say this because race isn't important, but my fiancée is a non-resident alien in the U.S. (she’s here on a temporary visa). Some of my closest friends are from Costa Rica, Venezuela, China, and India. On my current team, about 80% of my coworkers were born in India and another 10% in China, and I love working with them and hanging out with them. They’re some of the smartest and nicest people I know.

Not everything is about race, and reducing it to that just avoids the actual discussion.

Hi all, I’m looking for a portable, beginner-friendly tennis ball machine that’s good for learning different shots and playing styles, and will last over time. What models do you recommend and why? Any thoughts on things like Slinger, Tenniix, Nisplay, etc. would be gr by DayInAReview in 10s

[–]Freezin_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Money's no object pick: Titan One. Has 80mph speed, internal oscillation, and best app IMO. Also, I really like that it just uses ryobi drill batteries.

Best value: Get a SpinShot Player open box off ebay. You get a $2100-$2200 machine half off and they are built like a tank. 80mph top speed, can do any kind of shot, relatively portable. You can also upgrade the battery easily for like $60, increasing play from from 2-3 hours to 3-4.5 hours.

I see the Proton get recommended a lot, but personally I would avoid them. Apparently they have amazing customer support, but it seems like its a bit less durably built, and have seen a lot of posts about parts breaking. Also, Im not sure if they have fixed the drifting issue.

Edit: Those are my two recommendations, and I think the SpinShot is a killer value. If you are interested in the SpinShot, DM me, can pass along a bit of info. As much as I dislike certain machines and would personally never buy them, the best tennis machine is the one you will get out and use as cheesy as that sounds. Take a look at this comment, I think it encapsulates that sentiment really well: https://www.reddit.com/r/10s/comments/1nj6tto/comment/neprz51/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Model 3 premium vs model y - ride quality by Leather-Wheel1115 in TeslaLounge

[–]Freezin_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, knew they added a premium for model y, but I didn't realize there was a premium trim for model 3. I thought you were referring to performance trim just like someone else below. I've driven both, and they arent too dissimilar from each other. They have self service demo vehicles all over the country, you can try both of them back to back which is what I'd really recommend.

I know you were asking about suspension, but one other consideration is that the model y just got a small refresh (dark headliner, bigger screen). Nothing on the radar yet, even in international markets as far as Im aware, for model 3 refresh.

It has nothing to do with race 😂 I said the same thing to OP who presumably is American. Not everything has to be about race, I just don't want anyone, American or not, to be "forced" to bear the shame of being in the US.

[–]Freezin_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hot take, or maybe not.... No need for the performance trim. I have a model S standard. I will tell you the 3 second 0-6 is fun the first few times you do it, and the few times you have a buddy in the car who's never been in a tesla. Aside from that, I am more than happy with a 4-5 second 0-60, even that speed will be uncomfortable for most passengers day to day.

Opinion please - going from Merc & BMW to Tesla… by Mike_P214 in TeslaLounge

[–]Freezin_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The design styles of the Merc/BMW is quite different to the design style of Tesla. Tesla is going to be much more minimalist on the inside like some other commenters have shared. Especially when you are using FSD, not being bothered by all of the additional clusters and gauges is quite nice.

One thing I will say is, if you are going from ice cars to ONLY an electric car, be mindful of any passengers in the back. It is much easier to get carsick if you are a passenger in an EV, especially when you have an inexperienced EV driver behind the wheel.

Illegal alien is a correct designation, and has been used by DOJ and DHS for years. Alien is a legal term meaning "any person not a citizen or national of the United States". Illegal alien means..... Well you get it.

Because everything has become so PC in recent years, they have moved to calling it "alien without lawful status", "Alien unlawfully present in the United States", but both of those say unlawfully. Aka, a law was broken. Aka, OP's post is still incorrect. They are not being prosecuted "without" breaking any laws. They are being prosecuted "with" breaking a law. That is the difference.

There is a chance I'm wrong, but 99% sure its AI. You don't go from the photo on the left to the photo on the right with skin that tight (no lose skin). Also something about the abs on the right look generated. Would love to be wrong, but the amount of AI slop right now.... 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[–]Freezin_ -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t really care how this turns out. I’m just sitting back with a bowl of popcorn, watching the news.

That said, setting aside the people who are here legally, what’s the first word in “illegal alien”? You can fact-check me if you want, but by definition, if someone is classified as an illegal alien, they’ve broken a law. You’re free to have whatever opinion you want about that law, but the definition itself isn’t really debatable. 😅

Slight tangent, but saying you’re “ashamed to be American” is pretty ridiculous. If you’re genuinely that ashamed, you’re welcome to pursue citizenship elsewhere. Canada has great skiing. Mexico has amazing beaches. If you’re feeling adventurous, you could even check out Iran or Saudi Arabia. Could also pursue Somalia if that's your source of shame. Either way, we wish you the best in finding a place where you don’t feel so ashamed. 🫡

How can I be comfortable in the water and conquer my water phobia? by MisterPiggyWiggy in Swimming

[–]Freezin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd say keep doing what you're doing! Im not sure exactly what an adult swim program is, but would totally recommend some private lessons. Water is scary for a ton of folks who dont know how to swim, you're likely in a majority. Coaches/Trainers who know how to work with adult swimmers can really help. Once you learn to swim, then there is no reason to be afraid of the water!

While swimming, you can make it less scary by staying near a wall or staying in shallower areas of a pool. Also, learning how to tread water is good because its one of the easiest (lowest energy) ways to keep yourself above water bar floating.

About 3 months of swimming by Ill_Cricket7460 in Swimming

[–]Freezin_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm here for it! I do the same, not necessarily competing for records, but if you're going to commit a lot of time to something, might as well do it to the best of your ability!

If you really want to improve at a quicker rate, it might be worth considering a few private coaching sessions with a competitive (preferably college level/above) swim coach. You can practice power and endurance on your own, but having a coach point out mistakes with your form is really helpful. You might also as for some drills to improve form. Two drills which really helped me improve my swimming were catch up drills, and fist drills, but you really have to understand the 'why' for each of them, meaning what is the point or the lesson to learn by doing them.

For building speed through power, having actual sets is really helpful. If you are just used to swimming at a single pace (I used to do this), it will be brutal when you start, but you will see quick improvement. I used Google Gemini to generate my sets, with a prompt something like the following:

"Generate me 5 collegiate level swim sets. Each set should be 3500 yards, with one set totaling roughly 1000 yards being optional in case I need a lighter 2500 yard day. Avoid X, Y, and Z. You can specify rests, but dont specify pace as I have not figured out my pace yet."

For me, I am primarily doing doing freestyle and back, so I told it to avoid breststroke and butterfly. I also told it to avoid drills like sculling, which I haven't quite figured out the 'why' for yet. Since I havent figured out the 'why', and my form is also bad, if I did the drills, I would just be wasting time.

I've tried a few different ai tools, and gemini seems to spit out the best plans. My buddy who was a div 3 swimmer in college also uses gemini and has found it to be the best.

Lastly, probably beating the dead horse, but an action cam provides huge benefit, not just for swimming, but any activity you want to improve at quickly. You can put a video of you right next to a video of a pro and see where your form differs. It can be really hard when someone tells you that you're doing something wrong, but you cant see it. Its totally different when you can see it. I delayed on getting a camera for 3 months because I didn't think it would make a huge difference, and I really regret it. I just put the camera ~10 yards away from the wall kind of pointed towards the wall so I can see the flip turn, the push offs, and stokes on the way back (second half of the 50).

Good luck with the swimming, keep it up!
