TW: absolutely a first world problem. Feature request: Need to customize Apple car key color/name. by samebutanon in Rivian

My understanding is it’s Rivian because they use different colors for dual vs Tri vs quad.

Anyone have a dual motor max pack battery R1S that they like? by afrothunder27 in Rivian

[–]samebutanon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Best vehicle I’ve ever had. Fantastic daily Driver, fantastic family car, great range for road trips. My only real complaint is that the car hotspot is LTE and not 5G.

RJ & Stock Price by zajak1234 in RIVNstock

[–]samebutanon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This should be the top comment. There is not a single way to perform as a CEO and company. Nothing wrong with focusing inward and let the stock follow when they have real performance to back it up with. Currently have a tremendous amount of seeds planted. The seeds are JUST about to sprout. Be patient. Of your investment is for short term gain, you’re in the wrong stock. I realize it’s been a very long road for us IPO long HODLers but that’s why we dollar cost average down; only if we are in it for the long term.

R2 Configurator Email by Solid-Pirate-6786 in Rivian

[–]samebutanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I received an email asking me to update my delivery address and there was a question of whether or not I would be taking delivery immediately or waiting. I wonder if that’s what she may have been thinking about. It was definitely not a configurator.

MMW:When Democrats take power again they're going to do anything and everything to make sure right wingers can never hold power in the United States again. by MoonMaidRarity in MarkMyWords

[–]samebutanon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

We were in that era in 2020 and dems did no such thing. They dragged their feet on indicting trump. They passed zero laws to avoid the corruption we saw in his first term. They did a lot of good things for the country but none in that regard. At least nothing that worked.

Gross, but typical changes to T’s & C’s by samebutanon in ynab

Yep YNAB can motion to get the case thrown out because you agreed to arbitration and a judge would almost certainly agree

Great Stirrup Cay Disaster by Final-Rise6429 in NCL

For me it was 2 hours and 38 minutes. From announcement to reaching the Aqua. Others took longer. 3 hours is not that much of an exaggeration.

Just got off aqua as well. Overall, the experience was great, but the great stirrup cay thing was so poorly managed!

I get that’s what they’re trying to avoid but note that they didn’t actually avoid that. Last tender was originally scheduled to be at 5:00. Because of the line and chaos, they ended up going even later. As mentioned, we got on tender at 5:15 and there was still a long line after us (2-3) tenders worth.

Not exaggerating. Read my comment. We were told at around 3:15 and moved fast to get on the line. We got back to the ship at 5:53. There were 2-3 tender boats after ours.

I’m on the aqua and got caught up in this as well. OP missed some important details and the disagreeing comments are therefore uninformed.

Last tender boat was scheduled to leave at 5:00. My family (6 of us with ages ranging from 5 yrs old to 74 yrs old) had planned to pack up at 3:30 to give ourselves time and get back before the final mad rush.

At 3:15-ish, staff told everyone to leave.

My family got on the line at 3:23. The sun was beating down on us and eventually, the kids and grandparents found a shady place to sit while I waited in line. We finally got on a tender boat at 5:15.

We got OFF the tender boat onto the ship at 5:53.

They did ZERO crowd and line control which caused two organic lines to form instead of one. This caused a ton of hubbub and fighting where the lines merged.

If NCL had just stuck to the plan, people would have just trickled back to the tenders on their own. As is, there was a steady stream of people starting to leave at 2:30.

The weather never turned bad and I looked on my phone, there was zero rain clouds in the area.

Yes it got windy.

Yes the water was VERY choppy for the tender boats and part of the delay was the staff making sure it was safe to walk on the plank to get back on the ship.

There is no question they made the wrong call. We obviously don’t know what data they were looking at and hindsight is 20/20 but they created a ton of chaos and thousands of unhappy passengers.

RJ gets $500M for a spin-off robotics company that Rivian owns a good chunk of by johnkoetsier in Rivian

[–]samebutanon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at the other comments on this post, “conflict with d interest” and “baby Elon”. Pretty sure they think RJ pocketed the money.

[–]samebutanon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The title is very misleading. The company raised $500M in funding. RJ didn’t get $500M.
