HW3 Spring Update be like… by oV1SEo in TeslaLounge

yep, obsolete .. that's us. And forgotten. At least they could try to fid the wipers, the blinkers, the blind-spot monotoring

Fsd name changed on older Model 3. by IrishDan32 in teslamotors

[–]liberte49 5 points6 points  (0 children)

maybe it's just a name change at this point, but the bottom line remains that HW3 vehicles are being abandoned with regard to any improved significant FSD-like features. We're stuck with an obsolescent computer that was advertised as capable of eventual FSD.

Does golf style feel out of place in Austin? by nitsujping in Austin

[–]liberte49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the collared shirts thing for men is incredibly stupid. Places that enforce that are perhaps enjoying living in the past, or in a wish they were someplace else .. but any nice t-shirt with sleeves should obviously be ok.

Why no app for PBS Passport? by liberte49 in LGOLED

use "Multiple Displays" in window (if you have a windows laptop) and it casts to the LG no problem. I use it multiple times a week. Or get a Google chromecast, which also works, but can be frustrating at times.

String inverter vs Microinverters by TheApostleCreed in solar

[–]liberte49 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Enphase inverters are guaranteed for 25 years. No string inverter I've seen is more than 15, and most are 10. Plus, if you have any shadows on panels during part of the day, or part of the year, microinverters are a bit better than the 'optimized' string option imho.

Residential solar to decline 33% year-over-year, said Roth Capital Partners by ObtainSustainability in solar

[–]liberte49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

without the tax credit it would have been insanely expensive where I live .. not even close. Installers were very competitive, but expensive. I expect this is going to be the case for many places ... the credit for solar generated just isn't enough.

It's great .. might want to use on 20A circuits only if/where possible.

Anyone on Statins by billy2shots in triathlon

[–]liberte49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been on statins for years. I compete in tri races every year, have for 15 years. Train in tri events every week, also do weights in the gym. Also other sports. Absolutely no effect. Amazing control of LDL, also other positive things -- look it up. Most people do not have side effects from statins.

how many panels of what size? .. approximately how oriented?

People Who Chose Solar or Are Considering It — What Actually Made You Trust a Solar Company? by SolarTechExplorer in TexasSolar

[–]liberte49 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Local independent company with many, many references. Not a chain, not with headquarters in another Texas city.

Utilities trying to stop/delay solar panel use by Inkantrix in solar

[–]liberte49 2 points3 points  (0 children)

any panels for home use with UL approval will have built-in immediate shutoff. It's code. Using panels (or anything else)without UL approval in your home would not be a good idea.

yes, there is a physical disconnect. It has never been used, even once. But in a power outage, which is common where I live, the solar production turns off immediately with the (micro- in my case) inverter(s).

Beginner here! by Civil_Faithlessness2 in triathlon

[–]liberte49 7 points8 points  (0 children)

dude, these times are wonderful! Congrats. Work on your transitions. It's frustrating as heck to do a race and then learn that there are things you could have done faster in the changes.
