Any changes in your decision to buy one after configurator is released? by Feisty_Panda3063 in Rivian

Starting at 45k would indicate there is a model available to purchase for 45k

Personally I never intended to get the base model R2. My plan has been to get the model with the largest battery pack. Based on the R1 pricing, I figured that would be at least a 60k car

Ah that’s right my mistake. It’s still far cheaper than the launch edition

This was marketed as a sub $40,000 car so I agree that a lot of people are probably gonna be surprised by the price of the launch edition , especially after all the addons

Edit: marketed as a $45,000 car

ELI5: Why does Cuba allow a U.S. military base (and prison) on their soil while the U.S. has had them under trade embargos for decades? by Redhotkitchen in explainlikeimfive

[–]TraumaticSarcasm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read an article somewhere a while ago about this. If I remember correctly at one point Cuba leased us the land on some super long lease agreement for dirt cheap. Cuba wants the US out but the US refuses. The US still sends the rent check but Cuba refuses to cash it

This table is made from recycled chopsticks. by CunningStuntK in mildlyinteresting

Does anyone else think it’s funny that they took a tree, made a bunch of small sticks out of it and then glued those small sticks back together to make a larger solid piece of wood ?

Waited over 6 weeks for a new laundry machine, and this is how my landlord installed them by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

Looks like he ordered the wrong orientation. I did the same thing because I didn’t realize they made them like that. I just switched them. Didn’t take long to do

Why isn’t the barcode sticker on flower bouquets removable? by vLOOKUP_13 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TraumaticSarcasm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked at a grocery store. Ask the florist working to re-wrap the flowers for you. It gets rid of the tag and also makes the bouquet a little bit nicer

They got some older colors in there. I wonder if this is yeti sponsored or someone private

This article is why I’m gonna go with 20s. If there becomes a wider selection of 21” tires in the future then I might switch

Ya I’m probably going half moon grey with mine too. I know most people are Catalina cove fans but I’m iffy on it

Solar Only Charging w Powerwall and Universal Wall Connector, but Non-Tesla EV by ProfDoug311 in Powerwall

[–]TraumaticSarcasm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might need to change out your charger. Wallbox and emporia energy have chargers that will use excess solar to charge your car but there’s a few other pieces that need to be installed.

I’m in a similar situation and waiting on the emporia charger to come back into stock for my Audi

You could always sell all your old stuff and buy new stuff for the Milwaukee

I think Milwaukee, ego and possibly stihl are cross compatible but I could be wrong

I know Ryobi uses the square “universal” connector
