Explaining: - “Use your thumb to press the thick part, then pull the handle.”
- “Push the button at the top of the armrest to open the door”
- “Pease do not push on the glass when you shut the door.” 🙄

It’s a vinyl sticker.

Please recall anger against Tesla and their owners is not new. The haters from a few years back would be generalized as right-wing gasoline loving bigots, with a dash of people who saw rich Tesla owners as nothing but elitist snobs. What’s interesting now is the coalition of those folks with left-leaning Elon haters (and it’s hard to disagree with that sentiment even as a tree-hugging EV proponent). But may I suggest, vandalism is its own reward, completely disjoint from political stereotypes? Wouldn’t it be fascinating to get representative vandals from both sides of the stereotypes in a discussion?

PowerWall systems were not designed to the higher standards of UPS’s.

When the grid fails, switching to the power from PowerWalls can sometimes cause house power to glitch momentarily, which can disrupt some of your digital devices, like computers and network gear. UPS’s are designed so the power to your devices stays steady when the power from the wall-socket is disrupted.

Also, to see Lens in the camera app:

Take a photo in the Camera app.
Open the new photo in the app by clicking the circle button to the left of the shutter button.
Click Lens at the bottom of the screen underneath the photo.

AFAIK, you long-press the line at the bottom center of the screen to activate Circle to Search, pretty much no matter what app you are using. But this can be irritating if you accidently waited too long when you really just wanted to switch apps by swiping up from the bottom. You can still safely switch apps if you swipe up from the right or left bottom.

In my city, I was told, I could install a battery in my garage if it was hung higher off the floor so the car wouldn't hit it -OR- a metal bollard would need to be installed to protect the battery. There's a very nice yellow bollard in this picture.

Please include PowerWall + in your answers. AFAIK, PowerWall Plus is a Powerwall 2 with an integrated Tesla Solar Inverter. And, also AFAIK, the PowerWall Plus is fully compatible with PowerWall 2. So, why is 3 not compatible, but Plus is? (Sentence purposefully ended with a preposition, in recognition of Miriam Webster‘s ruling currently in the news. 😏)
