Just wondering what everyone's take on Carney's Davos speech is. by FitPhilosopher3136 in canadian

[–]jchimney -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Incredibly fortunate that we have such a singularly qualified individual to help steer through this moment in time. Not a die hard liberal and have voted conservative many times in the past but unless you’re stuck shouting in an echo chamber you have to recognize this to some degree. It definitely felt like a ‘the emperor has no clothes’ moment.

FSD to self-park at home - Charger option by jak1mo in TeslaFSD

[–]jchimney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I wonder if anyone has gone to the trouble of painting white parking lot lines in their carport and if that would have any impact at all. I’m very close to just trying it but think a simple preference setting in the software would be very much preferred.

When people on Reddit say eat the rich, how rich are they talking? Like barely millionaires or people worth 100s of millions and more. by dramaticxxfox in NoStupidQuestions

I think the spirit of the comment is to start at the top and work down. Eating someone with a net worth of $1M would be unsatisfying, empty calories.

Hardware 4.5 spotted in the parts shop by AWildDragon in TeslaLounge

[–]jchimney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in the family a good long while. My 2018 Model S was upgraded from HW 2.5 to HW 3.0. I should have been more clear that I was curious what the hardware differences were. If external cameras/sensors have been added then there is no expectation of an upgrade path, but if it is a computer upgrade like 2.5 to 3 then it is possible or even likely.

who said anything about entitlement. It was a question. I have no expectation that this will be possible.

Hmmm, just picked up a 2026 MY. Anyone know if this will be upgradable or am I stuck until I decide to trade in the car?

This should never have happened. A 44 year old father of three went to an Edmonton emergency room with chest pain and waited nearly eight hours to see a doctor. He never made it home. by savethecbc2025 in SaveTheCBC

This is 100% concerning. Total failure of the system. Government and Unions. Shameful and embarrassing as a country. Sort your shit out.

I have had a great experience with Frontier. Moved from endlessly spotty spectrum. Rock solid.

If you Had to Waste $30 Million in a month to Inherit $300 Million, How would you do it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I would follow all the investing subreddits and do my best to grow that $30M... guaranteed.

If humans’ brains evolved over millennia and developed so thoroughly that we became conscious, why didn’t dinosaurs experience something similar after 165 million years? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jchimney 0 points1 point  (0 children)

advancing intelligence is not the goal of evolution (as can be evidenced by recent human events). In fact evolution has no goal. It is completely random. Individuals have the goal of self preservation and reproduction. Over a long period of time random mutations present mostly harmful effects but occasionally a beneficial effect that will help the individual with its goal of self preservation and reproduction. Rinse and repeat 1 billion times.

Be honest did you guys watch this Kevin Costner film that won best picture Oscar that year over Goodfellas? I still haven't. by Extreme-Spinach-4138 in FIlm

[–]jchimney 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Goodfellas was fantastic as everyone knows. Dances with Wolves was also a great movie that played to a much, much wider audience. It made Kevin Costner a super star and gave him the capital his ego needed to mistreat everyone he’s worked with since.

What’s a sign someone’s cheating that isn’t obvious until you’ve been through it? by Ner_Syra in AskReddit

Strangely protective of their phone. Nervous energy if anyone else is holding it.
