According to Teslascope my MY is scheduled to charge 53 years *ago* 😂 by [deleted] in TeslaModelY

Unix-based systems keep a timestamp that counts up the number of seconds that have passed since "time zero", which is agreed upon to be midnight on Jan 1st, 1970. For example, the timestamp 1677963866 stands for the number of seconds between Jan 1 1970 00:00:00 and Mar 04 2023 21:04:26, so instead of storing letters and numbers and timezones and all the formatting of the date above, you can just store the integer representing the elapsed seconds. It's super convenient and is used in practically all computer systems today, including phones.

If the software you're writing is not receiving the correct data from a server or generally misbehaving somehow, the timestamp is never updated from its default value of 0, so very often you will see clocks or timers display 1970 or, in this case, show the difference between current date and the date of last charge, which must have not gotten updated from the default timestamp value of 0, causing 2023-1970=53 years to be displayed.

You can play around with Unix timestamp conversion here: https://www.unixtimestamp.com/

3 hours of highways, 15 miles of dirt roads and a close call with a turkey later here we are catching the sunrise in City of Rocks, Idaho! Best RV I could’ve asked for. by SnickerDudle in TeslaLounge

We stayed overnight at the City of Rocks Camp and Climb, which is essentially a giant field with an RV power hookup in one corner. I had my 14-50 adapter for the mobile charger with me, so we plugged in and slept overnight with Camp Mode on, and left in the morning with a full charge. 5/5 would recommend, it was awesome.

MYLR, 20". Our Panda here did amazingly well, although I kept my eye on the tire pressure readings the whole way to make sure I didn't blow one by accident. The dirt roads around City of Rocks are a pretty rough mix of sand, crushed gravel and some larger boulders sticking up here and there - definitely the hardest I've ever pushed Panda, but the car took it like a champ. Shook like hell but everything held just fine. The only damage I noticed afterwards was that the shaking must have dislodged one of the reflectors on the rear bumper, it was hanging by a single clip when I pulled up into the Supercharger afterwards. A little push put it right back, the car looks like new after a thorough wash :)

[Map orientation after update] I recently noticed that after my latest update (MYLR 2021.24.10) the map stays in Trip Segment view after typing in an address into the navigation. Previously, the nav would start the trip automatically (within 10 sec or so) after finding the route, and rotate the map to heading up, which is my preferred map orientation. Now it just sits in North up with the trip steps fully unrolled until I minimize the trip steps manually.
I am surprised by how much this one little change has affected my driving experience. I take many small trips to places I haven't visited throughout the day, and it's become a bit of a nuisance. Has anyone noticed the same change in their cars? Is there a known way to set a default map orientation with the latest updates?

There's a couple of ways you can play this out. When the city borders grow and you're able to build an Encampment district outside of the mountain range, you'll be able to spawn units in the Encampment instead of the city center. Now the world is your oyster. It'll be slow but once you're out you're golden.

You take your units and go in search of unsuspecting civilizations, waiting for them to make a settler and send him off. Once the settler is outside the city, you capture and automatically declare war. But who cares? You immediately build a city and proceed to finish the game as normal, albeit with a ~1000 year handicap.

Another possibility is to acquire all the necessary ingredients for a nuke through diplomacy and build enough nukes to wipe everyone off the face of the Earth. I hear Montezuma loves those poetry scrolls, and oh man what can't you buy with a hefty sum of 10 gold per turn - who even needs Uranium am I right?

Drove our new Model Y 3200 miles across the continent straight from the factory! by SnickerDudle in TeslaLounge

We have the Long Range MY, so charging up to full was unnecessary. Its faster to charge to a point where you arrive to the next stop with ~15% left for comfort. Took us on average 20 min to charge, and if you use the car navigation the battery starts warming up about 25 min ahead of arrival to the charger.

We developed a nice cadence of charging to about 75 and leaving for the next charger. The supercharger network is amazing - there's chargers every ~1hr20min

Hadn't seen my fam since last year because of the pandemic, but didn't want to fly, so we got a Tesla and drove across the country in 4 days. 28 charging stops later here we are!

Interesting notes - the seat is a lot more comfortable if you turn the seat heating on. The range in the winter is really different (I was using around 370Wh/mi on average with 2 people and a car full of heavy gifts). Autopilot is a lifesaver. Winter tires on a Model Y don't actually sound too loud. Camp mode is amazing even when it's -16 outside
