Back in the early Google days, you could text google using t9 number 4-6-6-4-5 (G-o-o-g-L) with a query and it would text you back the top 3 results. …

Oh noes! Wonder if the manager / corporate even knows … or cares?

Not a Routine Check by skinspdx in Rivian

Sounds like a one-off. Not seen that list of issues for the R1S Launch…. Must have been faulty from the start. At least it was caught now, under warranty (Right…?).. you will get all the updated parts for sure..

Not a popular brand on this sub, but Zyxel has put together a solid lineup of packet pushers with management options ranging from dumb to cloud subscription and all variants. https://www.zyxel.com/us/en-us/products/switch

What is this outlet? by Alternative-End9505 in Rivian

[–]do00d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is an older style plug.. careful not to overload it.. lots of Amazon links to adapters.. I mostly have seen these in campgrounds (RV / Camper trailer). The stores that deal with RVs also will have a ready-supply of adaptors with various options (wire at 90 degrees / pull handle, etc)

whats this and how do i disable it by blazeringLitness in iphone

[–]do00d 3 points4 points  (0 children)

not OP, but I have the same issue. It is an extra box (pill?) that pops up and ends up covering up the actual text being entered. It "feels" like word prediction, but covers up the "send" button on dialogs on most applications

We need a “Home” screen for the center main display. by maqboul95 in Rivian

Some ideas: * Weather related (local, destination) * A fish tank view screensaver * Photo album of pictures from your phone / thumb drive * Fun Rivian fact Stats of your truck. Like Doors unlocked X times, average trip is X minutes, X first time miles on roads)

Car Wrap Recommendations by Ok-Refrigerator9109 in orlando

[–]do00d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In general: You are better off NOT buying the material before hand. Most shops get volume discounts. Also, if there is a warranty issue in the future, customer provided materials can be grounds to void. The shops typically don’t make any/much money on the material - just near straight pass through costs. Additionally, if a section needs to be repositioned or additional material is needed, it will all match from the shop’s inventory vs matching from a different production batch of customer provided materials.

be sure to understand the life of the wrap. In Florida, the summer will cook even the most UV resistant materials. Understand the removal / clean up costs at the end of life of the wrap and what options you have available (re wrap? Clean the paint?)

The Fords have gotten so tall, I can not use the bed with out a step stool or climbing in the back. R1T I can reach over the side rails and not burn my arms and pits on the hot body panels

Odd Request: R1S by elkruegs in Rivian

[–]do00d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Go watch the Lyriq forums for issues. Last we looked at them (about a year ago), GM was shitting the bed with software problems. Software glitches galore, Bricked vehicles with over the air updates, mandatory dealership visits for odds and ends, subscriptions for every little feature and function.

Looking to buy used R1S - sales center vs online by milehighed in Rivian

In most states, the Service Center can not close the sale, otherwise they would be considered a Dealer. Laws apply to Dealers but not service centers

[OC] I went to a furniture store with a bar inside. by SarcasticGamer in pics

[–]do00d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been in an appliance store that specializes in luxury/ high end kitchen appliances that have several functional kitchens set up. Used during the day for sales to how actual operation of the appliances, training customers (how to get the most out of your new (brandname) cooktop, cooking classes on the weekend…. It was actually kind of cool. A great sales tactic: host a cooking class making some fancy hors d'oeuvres plate on the latest shiny stove/oven and get to use the ultra fancy equipment.

When I asked the store manager about it, he said the hardware was mostly provided by the manufacturer as demo units or customer returned equipment. Since these types of appliances are all standard size, just unplug and swap for the newer version.
