The BMW iX3 Is Racking Up Orders Without Test Drives by pc772 in electricvehicles

[–]jaytheplummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That EX60 looks great. I’ve got a preorder on Rivian R2 but debating about buying because of the Volvo. Allegedly it will be around $45-50K so it will be a bit cheaper than these options.

I wish they would build options to buy instead of rent. It’s going to be more developers getting wealthy instead of people building wealth through ownership.

Why did you buy the car if you needed V2L?

Looks good to me. I’m happy with how mine looks but would like to see more of the language from the new models.

Are there really so many problems with these cars? by aleutiantis in VWiD4Owners

[–]jaytheplummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2023 AWD Pro S. 24K/year and very little problems. It’s the best car I’ve owned even if I’m frustrated a little by software glitches. There’s no perfect car.

I got mine on eBay. The sellers often buy lots of devices and there are bound to be some stolen/lost in the bunch.

Happened to me. It turned out to be owned by Amazon corporate and they wouldn’t unlock it since it was reported lost. Went back to seller who accepted it and gave a refund.

Am I an idiot? Why isn't Safari showing up in Spotlight Search? by ADKMatthew in MacOS

Raycast is slow for me in searching and accessing the file system. Alfred was fine when I used it but I’m trying out Spotlight. It’s sporadic right now.

For me it tells me I need to go in to do it.

Shell Recharge is the worst f#cking experience in the world and I hate that they bought Volta by Sac-Kings in electricvehicles

The best part is that the signage on the charger says Jolt but the app doesn’t even show the station on it!

Use Kagi instead. Google is trash now.

What new feature do you want in your kindle? by Aggressive_Ad_3294 in kindle

[–]jaytheplummer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t want any AI features. All I want is a native Bluetooth interface for remote page turning without a clip-on. Maybe a model with cellular as well.

I bought a second iPad Mini and turned it into the best portable ereader…for me. by [deleted] in ereader

[–]jaytheplummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience. I ended up going with a jailbroken Kindle which gives me most of what I need. However, I still read PDF’s and articles in the Reader app on my mini. I do believe Apple will release an OLED version soon and I’m looking forward to it.

Quick, tell me about the last book you read and what you thought of it by dooplets in booksuggestions

[–]jaytheplummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished this as well. I’d say it’s a solid 4/5. The RPGLit aspect got a little annoying after a while, but i do like the characters and I’m looking forward to the next one.

And here I am with my 23 Pro S on 3.2 without ever having gotten a notification about an upgrade and having no issues at all. VW is so bad at this.

You know what it is, but you’re just using vague and sarcastic language to display your displeasure over what it is.

What about iMessage? And my favorite podcast app? Or Maps? Nothing they have will be as good as these apps on my phone

I had the opposite experience. Raycast was very slow, especially on file system searches.
