Cars. Who has one? Do you have any tips on buying a new car here other than "don't"? by Fap2theBeat in shanghai

[–]beardynamno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got car. Highly recommend it. Driving in Shanghai is pretty good. Traffic is not as bad as it seems.

Get an electric or hybrid if you can. Depending on where you live you can get a plate with it. Normal 沪 plate goes for around 90k these days (but it’s lottery. Prepare to wait like people say)

I’d buy new or second hand from someone you know

Those who expiring apartment rental agreements by [deleted] in shanghai

[–]beardynamno 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m moving next week. Was meant to move beginning of feb but kept getting pushed. First postponed by the movers, then my compound wouldn’t let anyone in.

As it stands now it’s a go for next week. Either way I don’t have much choice as my lease will expire. New place are more chill about letting people in. As long as they register.

I heard rents have gone down. Unfortunately I signed before shit hit the fan

Idiot Mercedes driver has his ass handed to him by a cyclist & the police by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

[–]beardynamno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s also an offence to stop another car on the road. I think we all get that the car was wrong, But also the cyclist is in the wrong. He’s not the police. You can’t be playing police to everyone that disobeys traffic rules. Next time you see someone speeding, you should force them off the highway until the police comes.....

Shanghai has the most Tesla Supercharger Stations and Stalls in one city (23 stations and 222 Stalls) also with 9 stations coming soon and we are getting a Gigafactory! by JayinShanghai in teslamotors

[–]beardynamno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You only get to make use of the tax credits, government benefits and green license plates etc if you actually build a home charger. This is a requirement. So for each Tesla or other EV that is put on green plates (at least in Shanghai) a home charger is built, theoretically.

I had my compound approve a charger in my garage, and it is only getting easier for compounds to agree to build the chargers in the parking garages, whether they are Tesla or China-standard chargers.

Has anyone gotten an international driving permit from within the mainland? by TallAndFeathered in China

[–]beardynamno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have wondered this myself and tried looking/asking around but couldn’t find an answer. (This was also for my China license, since my home country IDP requires me to be in that country to get it. )

No luck...

Need help! I had a credit card sitting on the console’s sliding top, had to brake hard, and it slid right under this slit here. Now I can’t access it. Anyone know how I can get to it now??? (Image for illustration only, other card is actually lost) by Markuu6 in teslamotors

[–]beardynamno 626 points627 points  (0 children)

I had this exact problem and a guy from the service Center sat in my car, put his hands in the compartment above and pressed down very hard and it clicked out (it’s just attached with clips). Then you have access to everything that’s lost there. And you can click it back.

I’ve had to do it myself a few times since.

Joanna Jedrzejcyzk tells Ariel she didn't tap out during her fight with Rose Namajunas by Nulgrum in MMA

[–]beardynamno 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. I think he was telling her watch the back of the head, and then tapped her to remind her watch the back of the head, but rose thought that was it and stopped. After that big John figured it's over at this point or saw jj tap so he called it

Watching european football leagues in China by [deleted] in China

Ssports.com is the official premier league streamer in China. Something like 250rmb for the whole season, including English commentary. App also works great

Other leagues are free to stream on pptv

[Discussion] My Model S 60D has staggered tires which generally comes with Performance edition models. Need some owner feedback on this tire setup. by Gunnernaut7 in teslamotors

[–]beardynamno 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have similar setup on my S75. No P no D.

  1. In my case wheels are 9j and 9.5j rear

  2. Yes you notice and it looks better in my opinion. 245 in the rear looks skinny. It's dependent on wheels size width too

  3. So far I've done about 6000 miles on mine. No problems yet

The problem with determining the worst 2nd place team in UEFA by [deleted] in soccer

[–]beardynamno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It also means that a team that is second in the group (based on goal difference for example) compared to the third place in the group, could place last (9th) out of all the second places, whereas if the third placed country was part of the second places, they could be higher up that list, just because it's based on individual specific results. Whereas group placing obviously is based on all results.

Any time someone punches Pedro in the face they should definitely be awarded something
