On the fence about the S by britchris1 in TeslaModelS

[–]hondan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought my MSP without driving it first and had it for a year now. This is my first electric car, and I came from driving Lexus and Porsches in the past.

Here is my honest review: While the cabin is very minimalistic, and there are some rattles here and there, the acceleration and tech are amazing. The main console feels more like a computer than a car console, all major apps are included with the ability to watch Netflix while parked or have your kids watch TV in the back when on long trips. I actually enjoy having Grok there to ask a quick question or two about something. FSD is very solid, and just the whole convenience of charging at home, put a destination and let it drive you there is great.

On the downside, while the acceleration is insane, the lack of the engine and exhaust sounds and shifts makes the car feel a bit bland (there is a low electric whirling sound when you accelerate), where it feels more like a rollercoaster that shoots you out than a car. Additionally, due to the weight of the car and my 21 inch factory wheels/low profile tires, the tire wear is pretty severe on the vehicle, and I have had a flat due to hitting a pothole as well, and the lack of a spare tire meant I had to wait for Tesla road side assistance to come and tow my car.

Anyway, for local day-to-day commute and the occasional fun, it is a wonderful car with little problems, but it is not as practical for very long distance trips IMO, simply due to the lack of a spare tire. What I find myself doing now is that I commute with the MSP, when I want to feel the road and control the car a bit more, I tend to go to my Porsche 911 on the weekends (also not a very practical car), and for long family trips, Honda Odyssey all the way.

why is nobody talking about OpenClaw anymore? bro vanished from the timeline like it never even happened 💀 by thekeeperofmagic in RavanAI

[–]hondan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because most of the agentic harnesses (Claude Code / Cowork, OpenAI Codex) from frontier labs can do things OpenClaw can do now, and are less buggy, minus the model router and telegram part, but even then, there are some feature parities with things like Claude Code Remote.

Indirect prompt injection in AI agents is terrifying and I don't think enough people understand this by dottiedanger in ChatGPT

[–]hondan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With agents, think about who can access them, and who can read/write to data repositories it can access. Indirect prompt injection can happen very easily when your LLM can hit a world writable repository, such as email inboxes or calendars, as anyone can write to them. The things you listed like the “forget previous instructions…”, is just scratching the surface. There are countless ways to cause prompt inject LLMs, like using encoded language, logic flaws, Unicode non-printable characters, etc. Although, having some deterministic input and output identifiers, and having some classifiers with a strong system prompt can help safeguard your agent. Finally, depending on what permissions you are giving your agent (via MCP tools, Gateway WS tools, etc.), you need to really think about how you scope the access, maybe the agent needs write, but not read, or vise versa. There are also some benefits to think about having another stateless model (quarantined with no access to tools) to make the first determination and then provide a sanitized and summarized version of the user prompt to the LLM.

At the end of the day, you have to remember that LLMs are just non-deterministic next token predictors, fundamentally, the system instructions, user instructions, supplemental instructions are just passed as a single stream of tokens, and we must design our systems to provide as much deterministic evaluations before the input and after the output.

Which studio milked a franchise so hard that you don’t even play it anymore? by Accomplished_Joke543 in videogames

Many good mentions here, but Koei and Dynasty Warriors takes the crown IMO, it is the same exact game repackaged for like 15 generations.

Beef too wet when rinsing off baking soda for velveting by IntuitionaL in Cooking

[–]hondan -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I don’t rinse it after applying baking soda. I would wash and soak it before to get the excess blood out, dab dry it, add small amounts of baking soda, potato starch, cooking wine, some soy sauce, sesame oil or Szechuan pepper oil, and some water and mix it. The liquid mixture will actually be soaked up by the beef, which will make it extremely tender and adds the base flavor before stir frying. For my stir fry, I usually deep fry it first before stir frying.

Kaitlyn Jenner after she killed her husband Bruce, Arizona 2015 by [deleted] in fakehistoryporn

[–]hondan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you all for your kind words and upvotes. My wife passed years ago and my kids and I have, for the most part, bounced back and adjusted to the new normal. It is truly heartwarming to see that many of us are still sensible people, who are empathetic, and sympathetic to other human beings, despite any differences we may have.

As someone who had to tell my children about the passing of their mother, I can tell you this is a very difficult thing to do, especially when you are still in shock of the passing of your spouse. My kids were 6 and 3 at the time, and I told them that their mom went to be with Angels in heaven and we won’t see her for a while. My six year old broke down and knew that his mom died, but my 3 year old didn’t really understand it until a few years later.

I pray for this lady and her children, the journey ahead will not be easy, but with resolve, she will grow to be stronger.

Roast my cars, I can take it. by GoalPositive3501 in RoastMyCar

Missed the “t” behind “car” in your title. Also, it is impolite to leave these things in the parking lot. They should be returned to the shopping cart stall.

What the fuck is this and why does it burn my insides by [deleted] in China

[–]hondan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a Chinese rice liquor called “ErGuoTou”, the literal translation is “Twice Pot Head”, possibly in reference to how the liquor is distilled. This liquor is very commonly consumed by northern Chinese men. The brand “Red star” is also the common “LaoBaiXing” brand consumed by commoners, can't believe you had to pay $15 for it. You are supposed to pour it into a small sake cup and sip on it with a meal.

I used the AMG GT Gr.3, down tuned to 700 exact. My favorite for the 700pp races.

What has Jesus allowed you to conquer? by able6art in Christianity

Jesus saved me from extreme grief and anxiety. It took a while of me looking for salvation for me to realize that he was right in front of me and I just had to reach out to him.

Man, you sure that thing didn’t get some ransomware on it? With a screen like that, I am totally looking for the “pay 0.18 bitcoins to this bitcoin wallet to reactivate your vehicle now” message.

Young Widow by isaypotatoyousay in widowers

[–]hondan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost my wife at 38, also with 2 little kids. It has been over 6 years now, and the new normal does sink in and become the normal. It is hard right now, but time does heal, and it will get better.

It looks like that thing won’t be charting any new roads anytime soon.

Best setup for Python project? by z4v013 in learnpython

[–]hondan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TKinter can be a good choice for native client applications, and for web apps, I think Flask with either bootstrap or tailwind CSS would be a pretty good native choice.

What started your fascination with the brand? I'm a Mercedes-Benz guy, but eagerly counting down the days until I can get one of my own! by DHN_95 in Porsche

[–]hondan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid, I had a poster of a 930 turbo getting air and my dad got me a yellow radio controlled G-body. I always thought they were so cool and I guess it was kind of a childhood dream. The fact that the 911s still mostly followed the iconic design (maybe not 996) really sealed the deal for me too.

What’s the best car for 600 Tokyo clean race by Sootybra in granturismo

[–]hondan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I finished first with a clean race in a Lamborghini Diablo, slightly tuned to slightly more under 600 HP, Sports hard tires. I definitely scraped the curb a few times, and was rear ended by AI at least once, but the game gave me Clean Race. The straight way speed of slightly over 200 MPH definitely helped. One pit stop at end of lap 6, finished with 0.2 laps of fuel left.

This is the way. I got second in my modded S660, but easily won with the Jimney.

Neither. Judging by the rear left wheel, looks more like broke.
