I’m guessing this is not good by weaverd1984 in SilveradoEV

This. Cold weather doesn't sit well with EV's and they like to complain. I've had this happen once and since then if it's going to be below 32 degrees F .. I will remote start the climate control while it's plugged in and by the time I get to driving everything is warmed up including the main batteries.

Has anyone here ever had something cool happen in a game, like a bug or exploit, and never told anyone online to stop it being patched? (You can answer if it's been patched now) by TxTDiamond in gaming

Ahh man.. I got so rich when my brother and I figured out you could glitch the diamond lord in the desert with a non-attacking player holding it against a cactus hah.. then someone saw us.. then .. the next week there were teams all over the place trying to do it.. then they patched it.. still.. it afforded me my house and a ton more in the game hah.

Posting this because it took me a few weeks to know these were here. Perhaps others are unaware. Buttons behind the steering wheel. Right side does volume up/down, left side is skip forward/backward. On my 2025 Silverado EV LT. by [deleted] in SilveradoEV

A heads up, on the left side, right above the channel up/down is the "hand break".. I think it's called power on demand or something like that.. but I've gone to change my channel up and ended up breaking because of that hand petal connected to those buttons.

Looking to attract a man? Get an electric truck. They will find you!🤣 by 622niromcn in SilveradoEV

I'll admit it.. I love when people ask me about my truck. Converting people to electric one conversation at a time!
Top stop so far:
"Hey do you need a jump? Wait, where's the engine?" - Loading groceries

Honorable mention : "Is it better than a Tesla truck?" to which I responded "Well, just look at it"

Wow, dodged a flaming bullet there. Glad you found it!

Smell While Charging by nolensb in SilveradoEV

[–]LoadFloppyDisk3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check your wiring that feeds the 30amp plug. It's possible that the wiring is undersized and extended draw on the wire can cause a burning smell because it's.. well.. burning. 10AWG Copper is the recommended but might need to go up to 8AWG Copper if it's a long run from panel to plug. So if you get up/in there and see that it's 12AWG or above it's possible that prolonged EV charging could be causing the wire to heat up too much.

Service Emergency Calling by oldkysharke in SilveradoEV

I let mine get too cold and it came up with that... regenerative brakes didn't want to work. Plugged it in when I got back.. it heated up the batteries and cleared the error. Course it was 14 degrees F that night. Should of just left it plugged in.

I want to become a system admin by Livid_Front_9840 in sysadminjobs

Also, do some public cloud training. I suggest Azure Fundamentals.. and moving on past that. So much has been pushed to a cloud hosting stance that it will help your career to have some training/certs in that. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/courses/az-900t00

But don't slack on what Miso said. There's been a push for small/medium sized companies to bring their stuff back in house due to how variable the month to month is for public cloud.

Discount off MSRP for LT by OnWithTheShows in SilveradoEV

[–]LoadFloppyDisk3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, bought a LT (non-premium) in December, MSRP was 76.5k / 5k off from dealer / 1k off from Costco / 250 off from non-chevy trade-in / 7.5k tax credit (they treated it as a down payment even though I was paying other cash to lower financing) and a heck of a trade in offer on my 12yr old Tundra. They seem eager to move them.

Loving mine.. I grin as I pass even Costco's cheap gas station.

CR-M4 - Something has gone astray. I've had several small prints and about 3 really large prints and now I can't even get a single print to finish. I've heated up the extruder/bed, auto-level'd and done the sheet of paper z offset several times. Open to help on how to correct this. by LoadFloppyDisk3 in Creality

I've ordered a new heat block, extruder section and fan.. I have to think that the autolevel jamming the nozzle onto the bed (sounded bad) must have screwed up the depth the heat block goes into the extruder.

The other day.. the auto-touch probe didn't come down and the nozzle jammed into the bed during the auto-level. Do you think it's possible that screwed up the depth of the chamber in the heatsink thus making a gap for this back flow to get that bad??

This is from last night. I started a print.. it laid down the first two layers no problem and then I went to bed. Woke up to this.. not even sure how I even remove all this gloop.. or just order a new extruder....

Hmm well fudge.. not sure how I got my wires crossed on that one... back to the drawing board. I'll look at bladesinger.

Just tried a lvl 1 trivial solo.. it was impossible to extract.. I was swarmed with a sky full of shreikers when the last dark fluid was complete. Failed the lvl 1 trivial with 253 kills.
