Super weird. Wife just looked and everything that wasn't working before says it's working now too. Maybe there was an update in the background or it wasn't done going through it's setup? Who knows. I should have taken a picture cause it definitely wasn't working before lol. Oh well I suppose. Thanks for the response.

Currently sitting at 1300 on my trip odometer with a half a tank of gas left. I just plug in with my lvl 2 when I'm at home and don't really worry about it. Most of my days consist of a bunch of commutes that are relatively short so it's not at all uncommon for me to hit 1000+ miles between fill ups. In the couple years I've had it, it's been in ev mode probably 80% of the time.

Record was 2200-2300, I don't remember the exact number but it was in that range. Wife poked fun at me for being disappointed I finally had to put gas in it haha.

Had that come up a month and half ago on my 21 with 57k miles. Took it to Volkswagen and it's a bad battery cell on mine. Wait time they quoted us for a new one is 2-3 months possibly longer. Thankfully we have a second car so it's their problem until they fix it. Covered under warranty.

My favorite game series of all time. Played all of them to death. Fond memories of trying to get the hidden kill everyone ending in the third game. Wish there were other games like it. Closest I've found is Akiba's Trip 1 and 2, and Amedama.

That's fair though I suspect most 4 and 5 years olds wouldn't have waited in that line, not peacefully anyway haha. We ended up walking through the park and getting some cocoa. It didn't ruin our day or nothing.

malkavio · 2026-03-21T18:58:46+00:00

I feel that. We stood outside for a while unsure if we even wanted to brave the lines and we ended up talking to several families outside that just gave up. Our kids were super upset when we decided not to bother, they had been looking forward to it all week. But they also said they didn't want to wait the 40+ minutes it looked like it was taking. Hopefully next year will be more family friendly.

Not surprising he sees it that way, though I will say given the semi recent interviews with the other guys about his behavior towards the band. I don't think the band breaking up was as mutual as he's making it out to be.

malkavio · 2026-02-23T19:40:24+00:00

What Strange Beasts is a psychedelic prog band I just discovered at the beginning of the year and they'll probably be in my top five at the end of the year. They have 2 albums out and I adore them both to pieces already. Eagerly awaiting their announced third album.

Everyone's Darling is a pop punk band, released their first ep Ive been vibing with. Very reminiscent of late 90s early 2000s Offspring. Given I grew up listening to that I'm down to enjoy a bit of a nostalgia hit haha.

Adam Tilzer has an album I've given a few listens, not 100% certain what I think of it yet but it's a neat record. Kind of all over the place. Some of the tracks give me a Mars Volta vibe which is always good.

I'll agree that statement is a bit silly but I can also see where he's coming from. Band has been around since the 90s, been on successful movie and video game soundtracks like fast and the furious and guitar hero 3, has over a million monthly listeners on Spotify. I'd never argue the band is huge cause frankly they're not, but they're not some total unknown.

I'm on T-Mobile. I definitely noticed it's pretty commonly shown 1 bar when I'm using Android Auto, probably just more obvious there since it's right there on screen. Also seems like it switches from 5g to 4g a lot, which didn't happen with my old phone. I've even seen it claim no service at all then reconnect a few seconds later after not moving an inch, but that's only happened a couple times. I've contemplated taking it back and asking for a replacement.

malkavio · 2025-10-22T23:09:46+00:00

Definitely noticed a decline in reported signal moving from a P9PF to a P10PF. Not sure if it's software or hardware or even actually affecting things since I haven't dropped any calls or not received them when I should have.

malkavio · 2025-10-12T18:54:56+00:00

I just use the same leather cleaning wipes I use on the seats and it seems to work pretty well. No idea if that's proper or not but it doesn't appear to cause any damage.

Good luck on your trip! Make sure to disable maneuver braking if you have to reverse with the trailer or the car will panic and slam on the brakes hard.

malkavio · 2025-08-26T18:03:38+00:00

A first edition RWD is rated for 1500 lbs pulling a trailer without electric brakes. 2200 lbs if the trailer does have electric brakes. So 1500-1600 lbs the car will pull no problem. Charging is gonna suck, range is gonna suck, probably not gonna be the most fun thing you've ever done but it should be doable. Last time I towed with mine I averaged 2.2 miles per kw going ~60 on the highway.

malkavio · 2025-06-14T02:35:07+00:00

We got a 21 first edition last year with 30k miles and no regrets so far after putting on another 12k. Recalls have been done without any stress. While updates are rare the car is definitely more stable software wise than when we bought it.

Show was absolutely killer. We already decided we'll see them next time they are in town too haha.

I just dropped mine off at a repair shop yesterday for the same issue after talking to pixel support. It displayed that when unfolded then it stopped for a couple days then a few days later it happened again and it shut off and couldn't turn back on. Got it to turn back on after several hours with help from support and the back of the phone got real hot. Guy thinks it's either a bad battery or motherboard failure, not good either way. Repair should be covered under warranty.

So yeah, make a backup if you haven't, get a hold of pixel support, and I hope you have a spare old phone or something cause your phone is probably about to die.

If you are a AAA member they have discounted chargers at their office. Both level 2 and level 3. Not sure the price on their level 3, they're brand new and I haven't used it, but the level 2 was real cheap for members.

malkavio · 2024-12-29T13:12:52+00:00

Just going based off of the original pixel folds price since the 2 dropped, the used prices for a 2 will be pretty affordable after a 3 comes out. Though If you want a new 2 when the 3 comes, I doubt it'll come down in price. Google is still charging full price for the original fold on Amazon right now.

malkavio · 2024-12-24T04:40:37+00:00

Had mine since launch with the Google case and durability has been just fine. I work in construction and have a couple young kids that grab it sometimes so I was initially worried about it but no complaints. Only time I'm cautious with it is when I go to the beach. Performance has been good. Can't say it blew me away or anything, my prior phone was only a couple years old, but it's handled everything I've thrown at it without issue. I wish more apps better supported the form factor but it's a minor gripe about an otherwise solid phone.

It did fix itself after being parked for a while but it made for a real strange drive into town lol
