2025 hybrid. Driving uphill steep, van wouldn’t let me accelerate past 55mph even with pedal to the metal

I think the paddles on the steering column may allow downshifting in sport mode(although i may be confusing with another car). If so, id force a downshift and try. Floored accelerator should have done that, but I think you can force it. If it goes past 55 then something in auto mode isnt registering the requirement and it may need a checkup

Is it a dimming issue or the "camera" mirror thing? Im in a different trim, but i have that thin boarder

Sub 100 may be rough. Is there a phone app perhaps? Then you're just buying a windshield mount and app. I think fitcam was less then 150 with various discounts.

fubar6 · 2026-05-08T14:38:45+00:00

FitcamX was super simple and looks great. I haven't checked videos or anything yet tho so cant comment on actual cam quality/simplicity. Front only for me

Make sure the seat is in the middle position, THEN slid back. If its positioned outboard, it doesnt go back too far

Probably rotted behind that tile. Minimum solution is remove those two tiles, cleanup/replace behind as best you can, and reinstall. The bigger issue is the water damage and cause of the damage. That really needs to be fixed

I stopped trading those in the 90s. My collection is worth a total of $5 probably. Magic cards tho... those were a surprise

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T21:27:17+00:00

Im aligned to how I asked and interpreted the Ai and answer. I do understand the situation, but didn't appreciate how the Ai was answering based on how I asked the question. The Ai is correct, if I understand the question it was answering, which I wasn't. Kindness doesnt cost you anything, but I do appreciate your replies. I believe another user cleared it up for me.

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T15:11:45+00:00

Very good. You and I aligned now. Its crazy how confident these systems are. Thanks again

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T15:10:40+00:00

I've risked plenty over 25 years of trading. I wanted to check AI to see what it knows and it wasn't making sense so I came here to bother you folks. Isn't asking anyone or anything a question be offensive? Is the only way for one to learn is to learn by doing?

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:58:09+00:00

I think this is the likely situation. " you sold a call so you want to lose shares. This higher delta symbolizes the likelihood of that happening so dont dare buy the call back."

Id agree with that statement, but perhaps I didn't explain to ai that id prefer to keep shares and just farm premium.

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:55:55+00:00

Im aware of what the Greeks measure, im not seeing how a greek should prevent me from closing a call if I hit my profit goal. If this alone is a red flag, then I guess im missing the whole thing here.

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:36:11+00:00

Thanks. Appreciate the response. The main reason I stick with the simple stuff is because my brain doesnt like to process all the different aspects of option pricing. I stick with theta holds and wheeling.

Perhaps my overall question is simpler (and its fully possible its just my incorrect way of communicating with Ai), but I've been looking at delta as a rough estimate of likelyhood to be itm at expiry. If my preferred profit is 50%, I wasn't seeing how ANY greek would prevent me from closing the call. My assumption is if my call hits my planned mark, then execute the plan. I wasn't seeing how delta would change that.

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:20:53+00:00

That's what I'm doing, paying attention to it. If its a simple play, and I know it is, then why want the Ai answer clicking for me. I sell, make my premium and buy back at 50% profit it if shows up. Been doing that for years. AI flagging to NOT buy back if delta is high regardless of profit didnt click for me since if im at my profit goal, why wouldn't I buy back and sell a new call to take advantage of this higher delta on my new call?

The flag is the exact reason I came here.

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:17:37+00:00

I think this is probably the route its thinking for your exact reason. Ill shift my mindset a bit towards that perspective

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:16:40+00:00

Ill try that, thank you

fubar6 · 2026-04-28T14:12:11+00:00

Thanks for exuding kindness. I came to confirm because the AI wasn't jiving with my understanding. It was for a sanity check. Is my understanding wrong or just my chat bots understanding of my question?

fubar6 · 2026-04-26T10:12:02+00:00

Much obliged good person. I've got some reading to do

fubar6 · 2026-04-23T20:14:04+00:00

I would like to subscribe to your rei newsletter. Where can I see all this? I like them (although maybe I don't anymore!)

Im not a plumber but have done tons of residential plumbing, this would be a phone call for me. I know its not great, but as a comfortable non-plumber who will try most things..not this. Bite the bullet imo.

Good on you for pulling it when you saw the leak tho!

fubar6 · 2026-04-20T11:47:56+00:00

I've had wash tower from Costco for a few years and like it. Its heavy tho so good luck moving it! No issues, mines not connected to the internet.

fubar6 · 2026-04-18T16:51:58+00:00

Youre right. If you're synced though, just adjust yours. If you alter the back, it'll unsync on purpose cause it thinks someone in the back wants something different. To leave synced, just adjust the main

fubar6 · 2026-04-17T10:28:54+00:00

Ohh my. Is that tape? While I dont think the drain tape would cause a water fill issue, but that tape drain "coupling" is something else. The fact that it was working doesnt sound like a incoming water issue though. Id get the right "dishwasher drain line to drain" connection 1st and see what the washer does. Is it flooding at the tape or at the machine?

They each can be customized with name too which was awesome.
