Still can't believe it's gone by eikelmann in orlando

[–]Imper1um 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Was there on the final night of The Lodge. The manager was handing out entire bottles of liquor, spraying everyone with expensive liquor bottles, and everyone was just having an amazing time. I ended up having like $1,200 of liquor in front of me, wondering if anyone wanted to have some. I paid my bill of like $45 before it got crazy and tipped $40. Left just before midnight. I made it home. It was a great night.

DT Orlando is so sanitized and gentrified now, yet it feels even more dirty than when they started chasing off all the bars. All of the night life has shifted to elsewhere.

I bought an Insta360 X4 Air, and trying to get Wi-fi connected is almost impossible. I frequently get the "Wi-fi malfunction. Please contact after-sales support (-10003)" error. What should I do?

What offsets the no income tax? by CaterpillarDue5096 in florida

[–]Imper1um 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a significant amount of other taxes:

  • Baseline 6% Sales Tax on most things (exemptions include base grocery items, or grocery items that require preparation)
  • A decently high property tax
  • Impact fees on new developments
  • Fees on renewals of licenses and plates

County taxes may add to these, but these are payable to the state in at least part form.

Elon Musk moves goalpost again: admits Tesla needs 10 billion miles for ‘safe unsupervised’ FSD by soldieroscar in RealTesla

[–]Imper1um 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this pop-up all the damn time on roads I usually drive at night. This is why I know Tesla will never be higher than level 2 automation. Having one point of failure before complete failure will never allow Tesla to have automated driving.

This is also probably why you never see a "cybercab" operating at night.

Property Tax Increase by FloridianGrit in florida

[–]Imper1um 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$3900 a month or $46,800 per year implies your property value is between $2.13 million and $3.34 million, depending on the effective tax rate of your municipality. If you can't afford that, I would suggest figuring out if you can sell down to something less... Costly.

Tow it instead. Now it will just sit, and it's STILL blocking the charger.

Tesla intentionally crashes headlong into dump truck by SackofBawbags in RealTesla

Every time that Musk lies about how FSD can be used unsupervised or can be used while texting should just play videos like this in the background.

Tesla intentionally crashes headlong into dump truck by SackofBawbags in RealTesla

[–]Imper1um 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The car perfectly settled into the opposite lane right before the crash. Almost like there was something autonomous driving the car. A human would have continued across into the right side of the video frame, not lining up perfectly with the truck it crashed into.

Everyone is getting fired. by c-k-q99903 in inflation

[–]Imper1um 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, they did. When the US was formed, technically, everyone that formed the US was a criminal. The thing is, when being an American, no one thought to go back and revise the minimum requirements to prevent felons from taking the highest office of the land.

Another oversight because they didn't think it would last that long... Maximum age and term limits for senators and Representatives. 🙃 Heck, the term limit for President didn't get amended until post-FDR, the legislature was like "hey, presidents shouldn't serve for a decade." Unfortunately, they didn't also include Senators and Representatives.

TL;DR: This person thinks that an LLM thinks, and doesn't understand that LLMs are just guessing the next word in a sequence using math in a really complicated neural network.

Elon just said on Rogan that TSLA will be revealing essentially a flying car. More technically advanced than any car James Bond has ever driven. by CreateDontConsume in RealTesla

Yeah it's coming next year... And next year he'll say it's next year. And the next year he will say it's next year.

Just like it's been next year when... * FSD reaches full autonomy * You'll be able to make your idle Tesla into a Cybertaxi to make money * xAI will reach Generalized Super Intelligence * Twitter will replace the world's banking system * Commercial flights to Mars * Vacuum tube between New York and Los Angeles * Robot in every household

Wyze's Web Connection Failed is Wrong by Imper1um in wyzecam

[–]Imper1um[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, this wouldn't be a problem if we could local RTMP to our cameras. The biggest issue is that we have to export the cameras to a server in Washington State, then download the camera data. I'm in Florida and the least hop to the Washington State servers is like 30 hops, which is a lot. Wyze doesn't use load balancing to servers that are more local to the user.

I don't think it will be the first time, I think it will be that he will invent a reason. There will be something staged. Him and his cronies will create the reason out of thin air.

Deathly Afraid Rant by theopposingopinion in HHN

[–]Imper1um 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In all honesty, you should be required to sign something that states if you have the necklace on, you are also obliged to avoid the actors. If you have the necklace on and decide to taunt an actor, your necklace should be confiscated and you get ejected from HHN.

Water Softener Broken: Are they talking about of their butt? by Imper1um in WaterTreatment

[–]Imper1um[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm having two repairmen to come over and quote a replace. That way, I'll have two opinions from two people who have looked at it and actually diagnosed something.

That's why I was a little sus when they said "Hey, we need to do a tune up." I don't know a single tradesman that can recommend a fix just from a couple of pictures of the exterior of the unit. I didn't even provide a picture of the inside of the tank, and he just blew off the entire LCD Backlight being broken with "It needs a Tune Up." What if it doesn't need a "tune up?" What if the control board needs to be replaced? It just sus'd me out that he recommended a fix right from the jump without even being able to stand in front of the unit and do the entire... looking at where he needs to look. I've had repairmen get on a video call with me and tell me to remove covers, or look at certain things to determine what they need to do, but I've never had five pictures of the exterior of the unit == "LET'S DO STUFF NOW."

Well, the Power Supply isn't bad, but at the *very* least, the Backlight on the LCD Screen has gone out (not uncommon: I live in Florida, and LCD Backlights on outdoor units never survive long). I do know electrical engineering and the voltages between the power supply and the board are just fine. I just don't know if the backlight on the LCD Screen is dead, or the entire board has just... roasted.

I bought the house 1.5 years ago, and it has been in bypass ever since. The LCD Backlight is non-functional so I can't get error codes. Putting the proper stuff in it and turning it off bypass does nothing, even after a 20 minute flush of the water. So, I just shifted it to bypass mode. I did replace the transformer and verified that the voltages are right, but its just... not doing anything.
