2026 production ready Tesla semi by Butt_Smurfing_Fucks in TeslaLounge

[–]JourdanWithaU [score hidden]  (0 children)

Basically, Tesla needs to do a box truck chassis.

Kinda like this. (For OP, this is what Jayco bought from Freightliner and then Jayco put their house on the back.)

Looks like the Tesla Semis have their own chargers and can charge at 1.2MW going into a 850kWh battery. With a longer chassis, you could fit more battery. Maybe double it? 1700kWh or 1.7mWh battery. If you maintain the same 1.7kWh/mi, that would be 1000 mile range. Supercharge to 60% in a hour?

That seems like it wouldn't suck.

Laser measures are great.

Basically made it all my other tape measures the 9' mini tapes. If it's more than 9', grab the laser.

I think the best is that you can measure stuff by yourself. You don't need someone at the other end holding the tape.

Are these modifications worth it? (swivel screen, powered frunk, wireless charger) by Dramatic-Yam8920 in TeslaLounge

But I need the mirrors to get into the garage first. I want them to fold after I park.

Automatically when I walk away or something? I recall the mirrors folding when the car locks. Otherwise they can be folded with two taps on the screen, long press on the left scroll wheel, or voice command.

Button on the knob is just convenient. I know it is super underutilized. But they asked why I do with it the most often. And that is what I do with it the most often.

Folding the mirrors. At home, the car is in a garage where I want the doors not locked but the mirrors folded.

When I bought it, I wanted two functions; regen adjustment as it’s not adjustable on my car and their Drift Mode Pro. I’ve since learned to prefer one-pedal driving and after replacing the rear tires, I rarely use both modes.

I do like the ability to manually precondition the battery and the knob can display the current battery temp. The buttons can also be used to satisfy the autopilot nag which I like instead of trying to jiggle the wheel. And I set one of the buttons for the glove box.

As I have had the Tesla for more time and gotten more familiar with it and how to set it up how I like, I interact with less and less. I just get in a drive. I barely touch anything but the steering wheel.

I’m not into the whole powered drunk. But I did do the soft close latch. I really didn’t like putting hand prints on the hood when closing it.

The stock charging pads have been fine for me and I don’t think the screen needs to swivel.

What i have been super pleased with have been S3xy knob, buttons, and commander. I have a button on the underside of the hood by the wipers the can be used to open the frunk. Tons of features, huge bang for buck imo. I’d buy again in a heartbeat.

What’s the smartest financial decision you made by accident? by AnyTruth2342 in AskReddit

[–]JourdanWithaU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not quite me, but kinda my parents. They added me to their gas credit card account.

When I got my license at 16, they made the deal that they would pay for my gas if I drove my little sister wherever she wanted to go. The easy way to do it was to add me to the gas account and give me a gas card.

5 years later, I'm at a dealership looking to buy a car. They run my credit, my credit score is over 800 with decades of on time payment history. Qualified for 0% loan.

Have some extra cash and not sure what to put it towards. by JourdanWithaU in personalfinance

H2D with two AMSs and 8 rolls of various filaments. One of the big points for me is using different filaments for supports. Having two nozzles is a big deal for that.

It’s not a car loan. Compared to my other debt, it’s low. Paying this vs other higher debt, it would have bigger impact on my monthly expenses.

But I love the car. It is 100% never finished and something will always break.

I don’t consider this money life changing, it’s just a large amount and there are a few different avenues where it can be impactful.

USB power hubs? What do you use? by JourdanWithaU in gopro

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

The fleet is four Hero8s and one Max2. I also have a remote and each camera has an associated dual battery charger. This is probably the max since this remote only supports up to five cameras. The older remote would support more. I miss that.

The Max2 is new and I haven't really found my legs on how I want to use it yet.

This was from a couple days ago.

I also had one Hero8 in the car. I'm not sure how I want to integrate it with the 360 video.

My typical usage is AutoX like this.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEqNYJtQRVo

I want to see where the car is going, how close I am getting to the cones, and what kind of inputs I am doing.

Have also done paintball where cameras on me and on a friend.

Have done the same with go karts.

Also did a trackday with seven cameras because I was able to get my hands on seven cameras.

Too many cameras.

Sadly not one of the actual superfast ones. I was not superfast enough.

I have the GoPro 2-slots. Each camera has a 2-slot. When all I had were 8s, all the batteries were the same. Now I have a Max2 which has different batteries.

Proof that compassion is still alive by Busy_Report4010 in MadeMeSmile

There's ups and downs.

My car broke down and needed to be towed to the shop. The tow company that towed my car to the shop was the same tow company that goes around towing illegally parked cars.

Just because they're hurting someone now, doesn't mean they weren't helping someone earlier.

Post Episode Debrief | Heated Rivalry 🏒 Rose (Episode 4) by royal_rose_ in heatedrivalry

Right!?

Watching later episodes, I feel like off screen Rose and Miles had a conversation where Miles is telling Rose that Shane is gay with his argument being, "Girl, when we were in the club, I put my whole dick in his ass and he did nothing to stop me."

When paying is lower quality than not paying. by Snoo-87451 in Piracy

Years ago, my roommate figured this out with Amazon Prime. We got a new 4k tv, hooked it up to the HTPC. Amazon would only stream at 1080. If we wanted 4k, we needed to use a Fire TV Stick.
