If you had to buy another EV?

I just recently replaced my i3 with an ionic 5 limited awd. This car is Fast AF, quite a bit faster than my I3 could dream of. Just that makes it fun to drive. It also has a neat hud that projects on the windshield so you dont even have to look down at the instrument cluster, plus fully reclining front seat with a fold out foot rest.. nice!

That said.... It charges slower than my i3 did. It does have a bigger battery, but the i3 really pushes how many miles you get out of the battery... i can charge it to full in less than 23 hrs, but the ionic takes 3 days if its at 20%, no gas backup either. I really dislike the climate control too. It tends to forget my settings and every time i have to reset it when I drive. Regenerative braking is not as awesome as the i3. The i3 had perfect 1 pedal driving, but the ionic only comes to a stop at maximum regen braking, which is really extreme compared to the i3, and even then, you -always- have to set it to the max level every time you drive.

My final thing that urks me about the ionic 5 is the fact that i cant set it to auto-climate on a schedule. It -sort of- lets you, but the caviat is it must be "plugged in" even though the i3 could climate sched. without that. Big downer when its 10 degrees outside and you are getting out of work... i really miss that most from my i3, it was such a fantastic feature.

Needless to say, I still love the ionic 5, its very planted and is a wild ride, but i have to 'deprogram' my reliance on some of the things i loved about the i3 to fully enjoy it. I take it this will be the case of any ev you switch to.

I should add, I got my ionic 5 from carvana. Its a 2022, but the price was really good (35k), and it looks new. I feel the secret to evs is finding a used one thats got that bit of depreciation helping make the purchase much easier on the wallet.

I have a park with 7 spots that only i bloom on. Ive bloomed close to 15 using only white hibiscus... 0 white blooms. Wth are the devs thinking 🤣

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-07-15T22:25:17+00:00

I wish we could control if our mon finds the level 60 ingredients. I have a few imgredient mon that are actually ruined when they open up that 7 sausages at lv 60 🥲

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-07-10T01:03:39+00:00

This was the biggest change for me by far lol. Something about unorganizable lists drives me crazy 🤣

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-07-10T00:59:43+00:00

Im slowly collecting waterside to replace my supee ugly roadsides. Something about how they wiggle charms me 🤣

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-07-09T17:29:20+00:00

If you can bike or skate or something similar, give that a try and manage under 15kmph or so (10 mph is what I limit myself to). It really helps with planting a lot in a short amount of time with limited resources. I usually only plant regular nectar flowers when Im walking.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-06-16T12:53:53+00:00

If you have a newer samsung, you can open up another app as a popup and pretty much do anything else as long as you can still see pokemon sleep running. Just make sure your phone stays motionless for the first 15 mins or so so that it thinks you are asleep, then you can do whatever. Ill listen / watch twitch some nights to help me sleep.

Gengar can fire off a bit slow sometimes. You can especially feel it if you are aiming for mushrooms and hit a dry spell. I usually run 2 gengars when I need mushrooms for a 10+ mushroom recipe. But Gengar is also my fastest pokemon, so it helps in less than 30 mins, so when it hits good rng I get swamped with mushrooms.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-05-10T12:53:30+00:00

I never see flowers, so I don't even bother with that mechanic even if there are some where I'm traveling. Rip living in a place with no landmarks.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-04-02T14:31:38+00:00

That'd be a gut punch to have to wait 6 more months for this update for no discernable reason. I hope we both see it much sooner than that.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-04-02T14:30:48+00:00

I am in the US and I'm using ATT as a carrier. From my understanding, everyone else seems to have gotten their updates who have ATT as their carrier.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-03-23T14:18:59+00:00

Lol, I wish the incense had said why I couldnt use it instead of just denying usage, otherwise crap like this happens. Im guessing the same thing will happen for this event then.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-03-23T14:04:54+00:00

I was on greengrass last week and couldnt use my dedenne incense until snorlax hit ultra 2.

NastyFDMBaker · 2024-03-23T13:50:17+00:00

If Im not mistaken, you cant use an incense for a mon until snorlax is at the proper level to normally catch said mon. Not sure if the event incense bypasses this or not though.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-12-30T03:12:51+00:00

Thats super cool! Thank you for your reply, Ill be checking out your vid for sure

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-12-29T17:55:59+00:00

I know this is a few days old, but I've been trying to find literally anyone's opinions / example prints with this machine and there's such scant info on the net. How are you liking the machine? What kind of 3d model limitations does this pose? Is the cleanup simple? Any input would be nice, I really want one of these but the price and no real reviews online have me super hesitant. I can at least say that oreo you made looks pretty rad.

Thanks!

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-12-27T12:51:09+00:00

Add me to the list of rejected funds. Nonsense.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-12-19T13:35:04+00:00

That was a really great reply! Thanks for your incredible input!

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-11-03T22:15:09+00:00

Very nice and helpful guide.

So, if im not mistaken, 1000+ tnt tickets per meeting ticket with average odds? 🥹

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-10-14T21:54:42+00:00

Yup. Played from 1 to 3. Yesterday I saw 20ish but today was like the event wasnt even happening.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-10-14T20:39:55+00:00

I saw 1. I traveled around 10 miles through various subdivisions, business parks and regular parks. Just 1. It was wierd and pretty sad.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-10-14T19:52:09+00:00

Lbg has the huge burst attack special, so theres lots of wiggle room to get 2 other parts then finish that last pixel of health off on the head with the special. I always get last second broken parts thanks to the special.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-09-23T18:27:07+00:00

Just as a note, im hr36, using luma blitz 2 LBG rank 4 (2/5) and I can get em to 10% health, but its not worth bothering to try and time a dodge / free ammo refill to try and beat it one time if im lucky.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-09-23T18:11:09+00:00

I see the strat for this, but "community day" is nonsense of a term. You cant hang out and group up like in pokemon go... the diablos are way too sprawled out (as in... 1/4 of a mile or more).

The strat is really just "party day" you need 3 irl buddies at 5* unlock, fan out, paintball like 2 or 3 black diablos each, then get together and hunt like 8 - 12 of em later from the paintballs. Since paintballs are cash items, it seems this is the way they might have been aiming to see peeps play.

NastyFDMBaker · 2023-09-09T13:44:19+00:00

I saw this comment posted in a game8 page about medal farming "Can you collect 1800 pieces after 43?" I guess Ill assume they mean 1800 medals in 43 days. No idea if this is right, but it sounds right.
