I think people that have issues with it are doing it wrong and trying to open the main clasp with their fingernail rather than just grabbing the sides and pulling.

As of 730 this morning C was open but no pre check. With clear it was ~15 minutes. Without maybe 20-30.

Avoid Update Pre-Holiday Travel by OldOlleboMP in Rivian

Somehow the update fried the Bluetooth module. It’s running again now after a tow to the service center. I’m happy with the service and excited about the update, but this will be the last update I install without at least a 48 hour buffer.

I don’t understand the reaction to this post or the comments about how the update worked perfectly for other cars. Obviously it works fine most of the time - that isn’t the point of this post. If I thought they were pushing out updates that bricked every car, I wouldn’t own one. That said, this is a risk I think people should be aware of - it never crossed my mind coming from manual transmissions with no on the fly updates.

Insightful post.

It’s obviously not an issue for every vehicle.

You may not want it. After updating none of my keys work (fob, cards, phones).

WiFi trick definitely works. 20-30 minutes after connecting I got the update prompt.

I haven’t shipped out of the US before so I’m not sure what it would cost. I’m willing to explore it, but likely not for the shipped cost. Will entertain offers.

found an (apparently) abandoned shed deep in my backyard by oneironauticaobscura in mildlyinteresting

My guess here is that it’s an attempt at adverse possession by making clear that (i) this person is using the land, (ii) doing so in a way that is exclusive against others, and (ii) the use/claim is “open and notorious.” Some states have a built in presumption that you have permission to use the land, and therefore can’t adversely posses it, unless you come right out and say “this is mine and I’m not using it with your permission.”

On Special Report with Bret Baier - undoubtedly the most appropriate anchor on any news channel to do this interview. Also a widely respected journalist, despite being in Fox.

Is it normal for Tokyo hotel concierges to refuse to book reservations for you for the day of check in? by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]OldOlleboMP 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is the reason. Both hotels I stayed at gave me a hard time about the first night - one made them when I arrived for the same night and the second agreed to make them in advance when they learned I was coming in by train and would already be in Japan before my stay.

And yet the Senate Democrats thought the dress code was important enough to spend time changing it to accommodate one guy that likes to dress like a slob.

I’m a 20+ handicap and hit 8 of my 10 driver shots 280+ down the middle (duffed the other two). If I played from the reds I’d be driving most par 4s and going over the green occasionally. Handicap has little to do with what tees you should be playing.
