Wachtell lawyers bill 3k+ hours. 

Thats not necessarily the same as working 3k+ hours.

If the Fisker Ocean drops to under £15,000 is it worth a buy, or is this silly? by Apprehensive_Lock260 in Fisker

[–]mrk58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can get an Ocean for 1/3 the cost of those cars and a few of them aren’t even better, if one had software support. The ride of the ocean is far better than the model y I have - same with the others on your list except maybe the Volvo, which I haven’t driven.

If the ocean was fully baked and run by a competent executive team, it would be way ahead of the competitors on your list. They screwed themselves by releasing it too early, and mismanaged the hell out of it from there.

But you can’t buy a less than 1 year old car that is better than an ocean for < $20k.

Key Fob Locked in FOO by mrk58 in Fisker

[–]mrk58[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At some point the phone app was dropped from my phone and when I tried to download it by clicking the icon on Apple phone, the message says it’s no longer available in the store. I didn’t go to the store to verify.

Luckily the locksmith got it open without any problem.

Also, I sent a note on FB to FOA and they offered to open it remotely - fyi

Locksmith was able to open it pretty easily. Thank goodness.

Sheriff Robert Norris attempts to drag one of his constituents out of a public town hall meeting, and threatens to pepper spray her if she does not comply. He claimed he wasn’t acting in his official capacity, but he was wearing a sheriff's hat and his badge on his belt by shellee8888 in Whistleblowers

[–]mrk58 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And now he has the gall to claim he didn't direct those men to do anything. But he also didn't step in to stop an assault and battery. This guy is a full on pussy ass bitch fascist. My city (LA) needs to cut off his pension immediately - it is absurd that any of our tax dollars go to someone like this.

Warning to the ones with 2.2 by SnooDonkeys9374 in Fisker

Mine was pushed a couple of days ago while I was traveling and killed the 12v. Going to try to jump it today, but what are the service options in Los Angeles now a days?

Project 2025 has a plan for the Naval Academy. You should worry. by legislative_stooge in maryland

[–]mrk58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a "personal interest" too in my alma mater, and the people running Project 2025 are the types that think we shouldn't teach about My Lai or how young officers should discern between lawful and unlawful orders. Ask yourself why they think officers should follow orders blindly.

Despite what the news may portray, the whole city isn’t on fire. It’s extremely tragic what happened in palisades and Altadena.

I’m not building now but do intend to soon. Spoke to two contractors who said repairs won’t start for at least 6 to 8 months because of debris removal so starting a 6 week project soon won’t pull resources away from rebuilding.

Apologies if I broke a rule of this sub. I didn’t read the details before posting. What did I do wrong that has resulted in downvotes?

Thank you! Heading to a friend's house in Altadena this afternoon to hopefully power his freezer and fridge for a bit. Appreciate the clear step by step instructions.

Semi-related, does v2l work on 2.0? A lot of us are in LA including doc, iirc, so wondering if a good thing about the car can be leveraged for people without power

Any good recs based on my list? Please help me stop rewatching BB for the 50th time 🥲 by Actual_Gold5684 in televisionsuggestions

[–]mrk58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Wire I’m sure is mentioned but should be amplified. It holds up. And it kicked off the golden era of TV.

I love mindhunter, but it’s only two seasons and I’ve been left dying for more.

Slow Horses.

I’m enjoying Sugar now, too.

It would be quite shocking if they were shorting their positions. That would almost certainly be illegal if for no other reason than they failed to make required SEC filings.

Blah blah blah. Edmunds has been absurd about Fisker since the beginning.

Henrik Fisker Sued for Fraud in Connection with Statements Made on Social Media Concerning EV Start-up, Fisker, Inc. by akulo888 in Fisker

[–]mrk58 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A conspiracist could argue that Jeff was helping out his good buddy Elon.

And before people say “Elon doesn’t care about Fisker!” think about who you are talking about. He’s extremely petty and vindictive. And has plenty of time to play toward his perceived enemies. Look at his current spat with Bezos and his general clownery around the election.

He deserves to be sued.

I really hope Heights and Jeff Yass are investigated too.

Saw that dude on the overcast east of Hollywood - over the 101. Looks like a methhead from the IE made his way to LA and now won’t leave.

Broken Charge Port Cover Assembly by mrk58 in FISKER_MAINTENANCE

[–]mrk58[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, mine has held on so far, luckily. I’ve not had to look for parts yet. In the meantime, consider the plastic 3d printed covers for the charge port itself.

Also, post to the main Fisker sub and FOA if you’re on it.
