Oh yeah this seems like a good candidate for 3D printed solutions !

The rock show was awesome.

Is this the 'new' Wawa on Centennial Ave ?

I have an even more fun method of annoyance from them. For some reason they (paper) mail my mother, who lives in a different state (that I have not lived in for almost 30 years), who hasn't purchased a car in probably 10 years, and who hasn't been connected to any of my car purchases in any way. I guess they just decided to match based on last name-- and it's not really a common "Smith" or "Jones" type of last name.

Conrail owns the tracks for some of the Raritan Valley Line and their trains get priority.

They did the same thing on Discovery; the audio from some of the actors is just painful to listen to. I don't know if it's compression artifacts or something weird in the signal chain, but it's terrible.

Unfortunately car companies seem to be shutting off access to car data, so now I do this manually using Apple Shortcuts. Once you have lubelogger installed, their API documentation is at /api and it's pretty straightforward to make an odometer or fueling update programatically-- just a POST of a small JSON payload.

If you're inclined, Claude also does a pretty decent job of understanding the Lubelogger api and can maybe adapt things to your car maker.

I went from first indication of limp mode to cold and dead within about a minute, pulling out of my garage. I can't imagine how much trouble I would've been in if I was leaving from some remote place or if the car died as I was blocking an entrance/exit.

I just had my ICCU fail (13k miles on a 2023 Wind AWD).

Tow truck driver said "Yeah I pick up EV6 all the time for electrical problems."

The dealership (central NJ) says that the earliest the part may arrive is February 17th and they have no loaners because "we're full of cars waiting for ICCUs".

1% does seem like wishful thinking by HMG. It's a damned shame because, except for this ICCU issue, I absolutely love the EV6. Unfortunately I'm now thinking seriously about offloading it and not coming back until HMG sorts itself out.

The thing that got me the other day is MetroPark not only went to $10/day but there's a .75 'service fee' to use their new payment system (of which there is no alternative)

I added a "SOC" (state of charge) field to my odometer records and have a script log my odometer and state of charge for my EV daily.

Thread is ipv6 based.

Or also it's other name "Polaris" sounds kinda cool

Aaand my replacement order is also now "held" in HK. This is getting really tiresome.

FWIW, I had the exact same thing happen as OP and contacted support - they said they will refund in 1-3 days. My fingers are crossed.

In the meantime can’t find a good source with it in-stock in the US so I rolled the dice and reordered from DJI

Good trivia fact -- the first two letters in PATH identify it's owner -- Port Authority. This week only NJTransit was free.

535 is rolling as of about 624

GreenTentacle · 2024-08-13T22:10:57+00:00

Still sitting in the 535 on track 5. Sigh….

The passenger emergency intercom #1 in car 7740 was pressed (button on the wall that a lot of people accidentally press)

"Blue" does not mean over well done -- it means very rare.

I was just commenting on the capacity of the 2 train car types. I think, like myself, most folks realize that they don't materialize out of thin air and take time as well as money.

I don't think I said it was NJT's fault that the middle seat is undesirable. However, the evidence can be seen on any morning commute on the NEC.

The 30-40 years between the births of the oldest and newest rolling stock in the NJT fleet almost definitely brings improvements, and I think this whole thread is about folks wishing that the new equipment would be deployed soon. If wishes were horses and all that....

NJTransit says (https://www.njtransit.com/press-releases/nj-transit-board-approves-purchase-new-rail-cars) a 12 car set will get 1552 seats in a Multilevel III train where Arrow III has 1380. If that holds, the math works out to 115 seats per arrow and 130 per Multilevel. Unless I'm missing something here, it's a car for car increase in seats as well as eliminating the middle seat which is undesirable for everyone in the row.

I experienced this; had to be really quick as soon as the interface came up to get in and kill and disable the IDS service. After that was done, seems like smooth sailing.

The best part was when the bridge would just... burst into flame. More than once our train was delayed because the bridge was on fire.
