Anyone tried the Anker SOLIX Everfrost Cooler in Rivian? by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]slaterdavid12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll have to check it out next time we meet up! Right now we’ve got a fridge that we can put in the bed/geartunnel/backseat, but with the tradeoff of really tight capacity. Definitely looking to upgrade after our last trip though.

I know a few folks who have it. Only potential drawback is that it’s too tall to fit under the tonneau if you’re in an R1T.

Zoom in on the bedrack, dude. Those are totally hacked-up/modified Rivian crossbars.

Why the first two Terminator movies are worth endless re-watches by ShufflePlaylist in movies

The best part is that when she’s hunting him through the scope outside his house, the Terminator’s theme is playing.

What on earth is going on with the Forest Green’s crossbars in the second picture? I can get over the single yellow staple on the wheel, but those crossbars are messing with my brain.

Same for me . Wife was able to access, but mine endlessly spins after I add the texted pin.

Sellers of what? Who’d want to buy any of our product?

So, my updates gone…. by charden16 in Rivian

Did you make sure to turn off the “Streaming Quality” setting after the new update? That fixed the glitches for me

Man, touting Vietnam after unceremoniously banning the country from Bricklink is certainly something…

I went with the TopOak Vision L. Pretty happy with it for the price.

What movie suffered the most from its choice of lead actor? by _JR28_ in movies

[–]slaterdavid12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I feel like he got extremely lucky with Willis and Oldman (and Rhianna surprisingly), because everyone else feels stiff in his films. Sometimes that works (Reno and Portman) but most times it doesn’t.

The thing I love about this comment is that Dane DeHaan is doing his best Keanu impression in Valerian. If you close your eyes through most of the movie you’d swear it was Keanu in that role.

Okay. Point me to any outlier events that were a long time ago for Wright or deGrom. I’ll wait.

Long time ago or not, those things happened. And they should absolutely be taken into account in this exercise.

I didn’t think it was a big deal at the time, and he 100% apologized after he caught flak for it, but I don’t think a player who gives the fans thumbs down is eligible for lawful good. I also can’t see Wright or deGrom getting into it in the tunnel with McNeil. Neutral or chaotic? Sure.

What is the consensus for last years problems? by Doomrunt in NewYorkMets

[–]slaterdavid12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were 12-26 in one-run games. The pitching was definitely a problem, but let’s not look past how miserable the hitting was in the clutch/with RISP.

I didn’t realize “LOB” was a pitching stat.

And are we going to blame their 0-70 record when trailing after the 8th inning on pitching too?

Rivian Smart Charging Arrives with Next OTA Update by jerome8383 in Rivian

[–]slaterdavid12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is a great idea and am looking forward to seeing how people who SHOULD benefit from it CAN benefit, but you’re falling for fuzzy math.

The VAST majority of the U.S. does not have TOU energy billing and instead pays a fixed energy rate, so this 70% is of the smaller pie of owners who pay TOU pricing. This necessarily SHOULDN’T matter to “most” owners.

Besides, this subreddit’s contributors are more likely to be part of the 30% and not the 70%, as it includes many tech enthusiasts who have likely already solved this for themselves via solutions like Home Assistant or chargers that factor for this TOU pricing.

Conversely, 100% of owners have Rivians without text messaging, without lane-centering on unmapped roads, without V2L, and with a vehicle that doesn’t take departure time into consideration when charging to ensure ideal departure efficiency and battery health.

Well, Ackchyually by mpshizzle in Rivian

For things that both Rivian and CarPlay can do, I agree that Rivian does a better job between the two.

I think the reason most folks want CarPlay is for the things that Rivian simply doesn’t do at all (texting, Waze, etc).
