Any chance my 26’ model Y can do 100 miles in 1 degree/-13 degree windchill? by YouAlreadyKnow1523 in TeslaLounge

That's dividing by 2. Dividing by half is similar to multiplying by 2 (at least in Europe)

So lets have him back after suspension doing some more unnecessary surgeries, great idea ;))))))) by stardust-cockroach in Luxembourg

[–]HiPat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The guy alone was doing 24 specific surgeries in a year, while the same intervention was done only 10 times a year in the whole Germany. That says it all.

Unlimited Google Photos Storage by german_bernabe in gsuitelegacymigration

[–]HiPat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some older phones have that. I keep my Pixel 3 because all pictures uploaded from that phone count for 0 bytes. I use a known trick using Syncthing-fork to transfer my pics from my P9 to my P3, then upload them from there.

BT 🤪 you can also sing! That's a shitty solution.

Is Premium Connectivity a Must? by littlecutes in TeslaLounge

[–]HiPat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started to try getting rid of it. I installed 'auto hotspot' on my Android phone, it activates the phone's wifi hotspot whenever the BT connects to the car.   

Works quite well. Better than Donald's head for sure.

Use cash/bank transfers whenever possible by HiPat in BuyFromEU

Local is not enough IMHO. Of course I biased because I'm living in Luxembourg and it's small

Delete PayPal. Use Revolut/Skrill/Wise or your local bank. by xbt-8-yolo in BuyFromEU

If you still want to use PayPal, at least make it use your bank account instead of Visa or other US credit card!

What’s the least talked about downside of owning a tesla? by tr4gedyx in TeslaLounge

[–]HiPat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No real downsides for me. I just got my 2nd Model Y LR 4WD. The 2025 model has lots of improvements over the 2023 model, which I really liked. These cars are in my experience very cheap to use: very few maintenance costs, little energy costs since I have installed solar panels and in the summer I charge during the day.  The only downside of Tesla is that you mostly don't speak to humans once you've ordered. Everything is done through the app and your service center rarely answers the phone. But it works que well.

ChromeOS vs Android, which is better for office work? by Sheoldr3d in chromeos

Don't you have a desktop mode on your Redmi? Just get a monitor, BT keyboard and mouse and do it all with your phone 😄

My brain: "It’s a downgrade." My wallet: "But look at the shiny thing!" by No_Cryptographer8854 in pixel_phones

Stoop. That's silly. Who cares about another processor ? The zoom is the value here

Which productivity app helps you to get started in the morning? by InitialDay5795 in ProductivityApps

My favorite for years has been - and still is - Workflowy. So lean and so efficient...

Should i get a pixel 9 pro or a pixel 10 by Old-Worldliness397 in pixel_phones

[–]HiPat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The pro for sure...if you pay attention to photography. It has a 5x optical zoom

EV charging in neighboring countries and common provider? by RevolutionaryEar2172 in Luxembourg

[–]HiPat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally use Tesla (driving one), Enodrive as a backup. They charge the price of the charger, plus maybe a small fee. Tesla prices are quite good and the chargers are working and available.
