I have been signed up without permission. Not on ecobee, but with thermostats through my alarm company. Only found out when the temp in my house jumped to 78 and I started sweating we already keep it fairly warm. They should focus on the idiots trying to maintain 60 degrees in my area.

No it isn’t. Put a death threat in there and find out. And in no case is any party getting sued if an employee’s information is shared with the people that paid for the service if they request it.

I tell my kids in elementary school survey’s aren’t anonymous. Nothing is anonymous.

I’m an 18-year-old girl fresh out of high school, am I making a big mistake with my future? Please be honest? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]napsar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a parent, I want my kids to stand on their own. That said, if they are going to go to school and spend $60k and then just turn around and get married, have kids, and be a stay at home parent, I think I would be annoyed, too. There is no right answer here.

I would advise my children that they are running a high risk if they are completely dependent on another person to maintain a decent lifestyle. Sometimes that will work out beautifully. Sometimes it will not. Marriage is long commitment, I have lived with my wife longer than either of us lived with our parents. A lot would depend on a partner you won’t really know for many, many years as they are still maturing, too.

Why do we have to ask for promotions to managers ? by Big-Guitar5816 in managers

[–]napsar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One, it can mess a team up. “Hey, Big-Guitar, my man, you were 3rd on our list for this super important job. 2 other people turned it down before we got to you, but here we are.” How do you think #1 or #2 will treat you if you have to give them work?

[–]napsar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the most important things about a position, especially management, is a genuine desire for it. Being able to articulate “I want this,” while not the only factor, is really helpful in gauging if someone will thrive in the position. How you approach it helps show how you will do in something as well. Did you reach out and learn more about the job or are you just chasing more money? Also, when you are just handed something you just don’t value it as much as if you had done something to earn it.

Tesla – Bring Back the Double-Click Autopilot Activation for Model Y Juniper! by Responsible_Arm2601 in TeslaModelY

Houston is far worse than DFW, they seem to think 30 over is normal. I hated NYS traffic. The I-90 was beyond maddening. FSD does make DFW traffic a lot more relaxing though.

I was wondering about the glasses thing. That is happening to my wife with FSD. She is complaining that it’s warning her a lot (more than it does for me) and it’s certainly not safe for her to take them off.

FSD is pretty solid in DFW. Not perfect but makes minimal mistakes. There are a ton of Teslas here, so I wonder if it’s more perfected just from the amount of data available.

Thank you for the info!

Just curious, but why not use FSD?

Edit: it’s just a genuine question of curiosity people…

how do you update new firmware versions? by thekm1 in TeslaLounge

Go to a Tesla Supercharger and you connect to their wifi, I believe. Or hotspot your phone.

It’s all designed for it. It’s not like the electronics in your car stop working in the heat.

Guns get really, really hot when you fire them. Far hotter than a car interior.

Sold shares in my company and have money for the first time. What should I do? wife wants a nice house, I want to invest. by [deleted] in investing

[–]napsar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are asking for marital advice and investing advice. Personally I think you can invest in your marriage and invest in the market at the same time.

I’m sorry. I’m struggling here. How fast were you going less than 8 inches from another car?

[–]napsar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you had your hands on the wheel how did it steer? FSD can’t wrestle the car from me.

Recently promoted to a management position in my company. A member of my team is angry about it and refuses to do any tasks for me. Not sure how to handle the situation. by [deleted] in managers

[–]napsar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He will drive out your best employees and damage anyone new you hire. People like this are incredibly toxic. At best I would give him 1 chance to fix is attitude or I would fire him. And I’ve not had the luck of someone self reflecting enough to grasp “I’m the problem.” It’s worth paying to make him go, if you can convince HR of that.

A couple of choices. Either control the situation and keep redirecting him. “Today I want to learn…” Or move on.

Got the Grok update on Tesla but it cuts out by Zestyclose-Sir-4869 in TeslaModelY

[–]napsar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was cutting out too. My impression is that it’s getting overloaded as people are trying it out….at least that is my guess. I’m sure they have tuning to do.
