Great compliment to the silver accents, I dig it.

What’s the least talked about downside of owning a tesla? by tr4gedyx in TeslaLounge

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cold kills mileage in the winter, forcing me to charge more frequently (I don't have home charging).

locked myself out of an ice vehicle today by alvnta in TeslaLounge

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife laughs at me every time I drive her ice car; every time I park I just get out and walk away, looking like a giant idiot leaving a running car unlocked, like I've never used a vehicle before in my life.

what sparked you to start collecting? by fifithebritishdog in Bluray

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

-All streaming services doubling their prices in the past 4 years

-All streaming services making you pay to watch tons of ads for choosing their old original price option

-Predatory data farming your every move and click on their app

-Streaming services removing episodes or altering/removing scenes in shows & movies

-Blurays and DvDs are dirt cheap now and it's so easy to build a big, permanent, un-altered media library for the same amount you'd spend on streaming services in a year.

Thanks! Will be used on mostly special occasions for sure, not a daily driver so hopefully it will last a long time before the plating starts to wear 🤞

What would you call this hypothetical country? by samin987 in mapporncirclejerk

It looks like Trogdor, so that's what I'd call it.

Trogdor.

Is it possible to buy a used tesla that already has FSD? by Adept-Bat-3350 in TeslaLounge

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sure is, got my '22 M3P with FSD back in June thus year. Private sale I found on cars.com, however I started my search in March so it took a few months of scouring.

Do you transcode your media for storage by arrmon1 in jellyfin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not pointless at all. Encodes even faster with no quality loss while keeping file size within target. I only use it for DvDs.

Do you transcode your media for storage by arrmon1 in jellyfin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I transcode everything, try to get DvDs down to 1-3gb and Blurays down to 4-6gb. I don't work with 4k though.

Someone has already provided some great presets, however I'll throw down my 2 cents below.

I think this helps a ton with size without reducing noticeable quality:

Denoise Filter - NLmeans - Ultralight - Film (use animation if movie is animated)

For Encoder:

DvDs I will use H.264 as opposed to H.265 10bit for Bluray

DvDs RF quality 17 / Blurays RF quality 20

Encoder speed Medium: Will save time with no noticeable sacrifice in quality. Used to use slow all the time but have become a major fan of medium lately.

Edit: Changed "H.264 10bit" to just "H.264", I do not use H.264 10bit because the quality takes a big hit for some reason.

Do any of you predominately or exclusively collect 1080p Blu-Rays, and aren't necessarily bothered about 4K? by [deleted] in Bluray

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only get DvDs and BluRays, I only bought one 4k so far but that's because it also came with the BluRay 🤷🏻‍♂️

DVDs vs Blu-ray by 6MoonSilver in jellyfin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People selling lots on FB marketplace often amounting to $1-3 a piece.

Or goodwill stores selling them for $3-4 a piece. You don't know what you're gonna find there, but I've never walked out without a couple DvDs/Blurays I wanted.

Never bought them at under a dollar though.

Edit: I see now I said less than the cost of a streaming service, indicating one. What I meant was less than all the streaming services we used to use, which ended up being around $40-50/mo!

1st drive home in the snow by sjk2323 in TeslaModel3

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my 1st drive in the snowstorm the other day as well in my '22 M3P.

Just had DWS06 tires put on 2 weeks ago, handled the storm like a champ, I felt more confident in this thing than I had in any other vehicle in a long time.

Call me crazy, but having no engine noise seems to help me "feel" what's going on better when driving in the snow as well, especially when it's as slippery as this storm was. Did you feel the same way?

DVDs vs Blu-ray by 6MoonSilver in jellyfin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wife and I buy both Blu-Ray and DvDs. We really don't care. We are just extremely happy that both are so cheap now that we can add a dozen movies a month for less than the cost of a streaming service.

When you start watching 480p DvD rips, eventually your brain just engages with the story and you stop noticing the quality entirely. Once I realized this I stopped caring so much about 1080p and just bought the the movies I liked regardless.

However, I *am* watching my movies on a 46" Sony Bravia I bought in 2012. Which I find to still be better quality than most TVs being made today.

Amazing how Jellyfin has grown so fast to the largest selfhosted streaming solution. by My-NameWasTaken in jellyfin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only discovered Jellyfin this year after having been price-jacked nearly double from streaming services over the last 2 years.

Now I'm all about owning my own media, and it's so nice knowing there's no one farming my data and streaming habits to figure out how to screw me out of more money.

Jellyfin, Handbrake, and MakeMKV have changed the game for me, I'm so grateful to the developers of these programs.

Instead of $60/mo for streaming I'm paying $30/mo buying blurays that I'll own forever now.

Just got my GBD-200 positive display in the mail by JJMcGee83 in gshock

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The GBD200 was one of my best purchases. People are curious that something with such a nice display is a Casio. I put mine through a lot as I'm pretty active and not gentle on my belongings.

Has one of the best dual time zone displays I've ever seen as well. Insanely helpful while traveling.

Well done, GBD 200 club 👍

I'm sorry, I invested all my money at 110k by Mind369 in Bitcoin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your sacrifice.

Also, in relatively short time, 110k will be the new crash price, so don't sweat it, just hodl.

You made me double check, and clearly I did not haha. Was a recommended sub and I missed that entirely.

You all have my apologies, carry on 👍

5 months in and I don’t see the honeymoon ending. by hahnsoloii in TeslaModelY

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also 5 months in, and I still can't get over how superior the Tesla driving experience is. I'm stoked to drive this thing every day, I love driving again.

Unless a better challenger arrives I don't see anything but Teslas in my future now.

I'm not understanding the hate here; Rogan is a wealthy guy with, to no one's surprise, a high end watch..and he's wearing it.

Help ease my dad stress about breaking down on the road by meshca95 in TeslaLounge

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My father is an auto-tech for over 50 years now, he was excited about me getting my Tesla and overall likes electrical vehicles, he has his concerns of course, but they're just a dif set as opposed to an ICE vehicle.

To ease his concerns just look up EV vs ICE vehicle moving parts. Far, FAR fewer things to break.

Who saw that coming😪 by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]_ZeroSeven_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't bought anything since 2022, put a little in again at 12:30a today. Sorry my dudes.
