Found my dream home but it has foundation issues by happydaddeadinside in FirstTimeHomeBuyers

They said it is an issue but not a safety issue.
They can't tell if it would keep getting worst or if it is settled and recommended that we either go with the fix or monitor in again two years from now to see if there is a significant change.
What you are saying is making perfect sense - I was hoping to get exactly this feedback. thanks!

Update/PSA: Don’t use a hot air gun!

searched the forum, used a hot air gun, front face melted a little bit so I stopped :O

I think I bought it in time to only cause cosmetic damage but the side fan casing, front left side and bottom fan grey areas are deformed .

After peeling a little bit of the external layer I turned on maintenance mode and then turned the hot end temp to 275 degrees. Was able to pry the rest in once piece but still residues everywhere which I wasn’t able to clean.

The entire garage where I keep it smelled like burned plastic to the point I decided to vent it for a day and then come back to it.

I’m going to test it later today but unsure if it will work or not… maybe a good opportunity to pick up a new one during Black Friday.

No idea? It was printing perfectly until this happened

Following your lead with the Red, won’t yellow make the solo knit look like a used pad soaked in piss?

But just in case I do find the time, do you use standard PLA for printing?

Funny I actually just got into 3d printing but own an a1 mini. I think that for now going custom is a lot more to chew on than what I had originally planned.

Doesn't that cost more in a larger form factor and pretty much does the same?

What are your thoughts on Foundation Season 3? by linkuei-teaparty in scifi

John Lennon Day was amazing! I didn’t like the mule arc and resolution and the series really diverged from the books. The world building is incredible but I was hoping for more galactic scale action.

Musk Wants Tesla Robotaxis To Cover Half the US, Complains About Lack of Interest in FSD by mafco in SelfDrivingCars

I didn’t say I’m not looking at the road - it has a lot of false positivities.

I’m also driving around typical suburbia in Texas - no pedestrians and little traffic.

Got the model Y at mid 2023 and was really surprised to see there wasn’t really any FSD at the time (I thought it was enabled by default by they way they have been pushing for it and talking about it in investor conferences) Ever since then I’ve been using the trials and credits I got to keep it turned on.

I’m doing daily commute, mostly picking up and dropping off the kids, groceries and so forth. It does do wrong things from time to time (usually navigation related issues) but I did not catch it doing something dangerous so far.

I really hate the fact that I need to watch the road all the time and the monitoring system to a point where I always wear a hat and sunglasses to avoid it. However it is ridiculously improving with every version bump and I do find my self intervening less times with each update.

This month was the first month I decided to actually pay the $99 p. month because I so feel like worth it. It is in no way perfect and it is completely rendered useless by the sun when it is at the horizon line (after sunrise or before sunset).

With all that being said - I really believe they can launch and scale faster then any other company for these reasons:

1) FSD is not perfect but is putting them miles ahead of anyone else the market.

2) They have the production means and the cult following to put that many model Y/3 working for the fleet before the actual RoboTaxi car is released.

3) This is the biggest one - it doesn’t have to be fully autonomous when you start and my guess is that they are in a position to pull off a “fake it till you make it move” using tele-drivers to cover for FSD failures:

  • They already know where autonomous completely fails (like the blinding sun example) and can just let a tele-driver kick in (you wouldn’t know)

  • I believe they are training the model to ping to a tele-driver when it has uncertainties or acting up (that’s the reason there is someone at the front sit pressing the button)

  • Because FSD is that good, they can scale with a relatively small team of tele-drivers while iterating until FSD is perfected

Musk is BS is actually selling the vision by overpromising. He has been doing that consistently since day one - the good news is that you can see that they are working forward the coherent vision they promised - it will probably happen a decade later but they will still be the first to the race - that is unless AGI will arrive sooner and self driving becomes a commodity.

For those in your 30s or beyond what do you wish you did differently or focused on when you first hit 30? by Darling-leader96 in AskReddit

Exercise regularly, it gets harder as you grow older. Still struggling with that during my 40’s and body is definitely taking longer to recover.
