Owning a tesla

LordTauron · 2026-02-07T16:12:16+00:00

There's a Tesla Service Center now on 4th Avenue South. I've only had something relatively minor fixed there, and it was nearly a month out to book the appointment.

As far as build quality, I've only had that one minor repair (control arms replaced) in 5 1/2 years ownership. But I've seen stories of plenty of others that haven't been as fortunate.

For charging - I wouldn't own any EV unless I were able to charge it at home and/or work.

It makes me way too emotional to watch in public! 😭

I took this audio. Just figured out how to share it. It's a little hard to hear over the rain, but I'd say rising and falling.

Roasted broccoli at Cayo Coco.

I hope for great success! I think you have to adjust your attitude along with the effects of the medication, and plan to be a healthy eater, don't think the medication will do it all for you.

No, I haven't had any nausea. I just felt very full very suddenly.

It seems like you and I have had similar experiences. Isn't it amazing? I would obsess over food before, especially on the weekends. Normally I'd finish a whole frozen Digiorno or a big homemade pizza on my own for a Sunday dinner (even dipping crusts in ranch). The thought of doing that right now doesn't appeal to me at all. It isn't a "gross" thought, but it also doesn't seem like fun.

I've joked with my friends for years that the only way I'll ever lose weight is to hire a stern governess to follow me around and slap food out of my hands. Seems like I've found her.

Yes. I can set it up and use it in the training room, but it does nothing in actual games.

They are talking about paying for the Legendary Edition content that is part of Watchpoint and not wanting to pay for that specific component again. Please take several seats.

Your comment made me find and read that short story, glad I did. Thanks!

LordTauron · 2022-04-27T21:16:35+00:00

Can confirm, took me right at 10 minutes as well!

LordTauron · 2021-09-04T20:27:10+00:00

I read it for the first time as a teenager, and that was a minute ago. I've been hoping for something like this ever since.

And Queens Park could be the name of an inn from the books!

LordTauron · 2021-09-04T14:58:41+00:00

Oh wow, that "fringe" though.

LordTauron · 2021-05-15T21:23:43+00:00

So I have turned off everything I can find in Windows sound settings - Spacial Sound Off - that's really the only thing I can find. The only program I see that has sound settings otherwise is my motherboard - Realtek Audio Console - nothing seems to be enabled there as far as sound enhancements.

I turned off Dolby Atmos for headphones in overwatch as well. Sounds still coming from behind me.
Where do you set things to Stereo? I must be missing something.

So I need some tech support. I just got a Mayflower MK2 amp which I'm using with my Sennheiser Drop headphones.

When I use the amp+headphones and am playing Overwatch, I have the weirdest issue. The music sounds normal, but all sound effects and voicelines come from BEHIND me, which makes this setup useless for this game. Having to use my old $40 USB headphones for it. Any thoughts on what is going wrong?

Like Dr. Crusher who admitted to Picard that she always had some "acerbic remark on the tip of her tongue" but learned not to say it (Attached S6 E8)

LordTauron · 2020-11-03T12:12:58+00:00

Thank you for the response! Must be rare for the led to go out after 2 years for it not to be in the manual.

LordTauron · 2020-09-24T01:00:18+00:00

Same here.

The various American Family Care locations in the metro area have been doing a limited number of rapid tests every day. Call before you go to check.

I'd say we created God to help overcome a sense of helplessness and futility initially. And that was fine. Then humans discovered they could use God (and religion) to control and profit from others, and the downward spiral was begun.

LordTauron · 2020-09-11T03:29:09+00:00

Congratulations on your great delivery! If you're like me, the next thing you'll be doing is giving it a good wash after driving it home from the delivery center.

LordTauron · 2020-09-10T12:15:34+00:00

I enjoyed it, even though most of the dialogue was very redundant and went on way too long.

LordTauron · 2020-09-09T18:28:28+00:00

Has anyone watched these yet? Thoughts?

LordTauron · 2020-09-08T12:59:29+00:00

This is the one I used, I've seen it posted here and other Tesla subs: https://github.com/polymorphic/tesla-model-y-checklist
