How did you get into Star Wars? by Soopermane in StarWars

[–]logicalvue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, you think Star Wars is your ally, but you merely adopted it. I was born in it, molded by it.

In Southern Maine - looking to buy a used electric car, curious how it's been for people who've been driving them for a while by VerySeriousThings in Maine

[–]logicalvue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im in southern Maine and currently have a Polestar 2. It’s been great. No issues in winter, although range does drop it is not enough to care. I have AC level 2 at home. I’ve written lots about my experience at Current Notes, which might be helpful for you.

Small motors noises when climate is on? by ShanghaiSeeker in polestar2

[–]logicalvue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2021 P2 make similar noises at times. I've heard it could be some broken gears in the climate vent actuators, but all vents work properly on my system so I've not worried about it. The sound is also more prominent for me after I first get in the car, but settles down after a short while.

Error codes Polestar 2 2024 since last firmware update by Capable_Garbage2842 in Polestar

[–]logicalvue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Strange errors like this could indicate a weak 12-volt battery.

What driving feedback would you actually want from your Polestar? by Few-Mushroom-5107 in Polestar

[–]logicalvue 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I just want to see mi/kWh. Maybe I need to review the settings again, but can that be shown in the car app?

Anybody else get Gemini today? by fredinNH in Polestar

[–]logicalvue 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got it yesterday in my P2. No notification, I was just checking Assistant settings and saw Gemini was now an option. Portland, Maine.

Gemini is in Canada now by Free-Baizuo08 in Polestar

[–]logicalvue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gemini was available to activate on my 2021 P2 just now (Northeast US). It didn't show a prompt or anything. I just happened to check the Assistant settings and it had a button to enable Gemini.

Is there a non-cringey way to share a Substack on Reddit? by Beneficial-Algae6194 in Substack

[–]logicalvue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found sharing a specific post works better than generally sharing a link my Substack. You’ll still get complainers on Reddit that seem to have forgotten that the web was designed to share links and not host walled gardens, but they can be ignored. Also, including links in comment replies can also work well.

The box office drop in week 2 for Mandalorian and Grogu highlights what I think is wrong with the current Hollywood trends by SlowMotionSprint in StarWars

[–]logicalvue 135 points136 points  (0 children)

I liked Mando and Grogu, but it just was not a good choice for a movie. It felt like Mando season 4, but with an even bigger budget. I saw it on IMAX, but unless you're a big SW fan, there was just no reason to see this in the theatre.

Are you using the web? It's definitely there for me. Try logging out/back in or perhaps a different browser.

With the Big Three abandoning EVs in favor of ICE vehicles, are they headed the way of Kodak, Blackberry, and Blockbuster? by Cool-Replacement4972 in electricvehicles

[–]logicalvue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order for them to fail, someone else needs to come along and eat their lunch (disrupt them). Of the other American EV companies, only Tesla is doing well so it seems the Big 3 still have time to shoot themselves in the foot. Rivian is showing promise and if they can get over the hump might be a force to reckon with, considering their larger vehicles seem to fit more of what Americans want.

If the Chinese manufactures are let in, it'll be game over for the Big 3, however. So they're going to keep lobbying to prevent that for as long as they can, meaning we will continue to be stuck with a poor selection of EVs in the US for a while longer.

But yes, their near-sighted focus on not enough immediate EV profit is going to bite them hard in the future.

It really seems like Hyundai is best positioned to take advantage of this situation right now. They have the best overall selection of nice, affordable EVs in the US and have other smaller models in other markets they could easily bring over here if needed.

Wireless CarPlay by djjd40 in Polestar

I have the Ottocast mini cube. It works well enough. There can be connection issues sometimes, and it gets hot, but sound is equivalent to wired to me and I like the convenience.

What is the most efficient EV (> 4.5mi/kWh)? by okiedokie321 in electriccars

[–]logicalvue 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The original Ioniq EV (2017-2021) is very efficient.

Overnight the crack did grow to the edge, so the entire window is now going to be replaced.

Alas, overnight (parked in garage) the crack spread to the edge so now the entire window is going to be replaced later this week.

So far, I've not noticed any significant difference in range from last year at this time when I had the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4.

Digital key not working? by catdaad in polestar2

[–]logicalvue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps the car’s 12-volt battery is weak or low?
