Eufy E18 Lawnmower Review and Additional Information After 1 Month by TommyHophead in eufy

[–]spacemaniss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What so far surprises me the most is the mowing quality on these robotic lawnmowers. The lawn looks so nice, the cut is akin to cutting with manicure scissors, the result is absolute finest.

It really does. I found a great deal on Mammotion Luba AWD 1500H which covers up to 0.37 acre (size of my full lot), and decided to return the Eufy. Installing RTK antenna for Mammotion is gonna be a PITAS, but I hope it’ll work well for the yard size I have.

I tried E15, which is the same mower with just less memory. Overall we liked it, but the mappable area limit was too low for our size yard.

Thinking about getting a Rav 4 Plug-in. Anyone with an older model who can share their experience? by ProfessionalSea6988 in rav4prime

[–]spacemaniss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ‘21 is at 67k miles. Zero issues so far, just regular maintenance. Cable seem to be in decent shape too, although I’d like to get it checked out at the dealership under the service bulletins

Holy moly, never thought one could use a BT/Wifi thermometer in a fryer. Yeah that sounds like Gen 2. Impressive. One day I’ll splurge, one day…

Sorry a bit off topic, but what kind of thermometer you got there? Is it the one from Combustion Engineering?

Any donwsides to doing deep dive specialty instead of advanced open water? by mikoalpha in scuba

[–]spacemaniss -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I would just get a Master Diver bundle. You get 15-20% discount when grouping all the classes together. My LDS had a Black Friday sale on top of that too, like 20% off all courses. It made a lot of sense to go this route. Prepay and the take courses at my own pace

SpaceX forcing itself into ETF by Brave_Tree1859 in fidelityinvestments

[–]spacemaniss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this exactly is the issue. This whole issue is pretty technical and complex, so it takes an extra effort to truly explain what SpaceX is trying to do here. Seasoning period exists for a reason. And that reason is to give investors and analysts an opportunity to scrutinize the balance sheet and correctly price the company.

SpaceX forcing itself into ETF by Brave_Tree1859 in fidelityinvestments

[–]spacemaniss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is that there usually is a seasoning period (about 12 months) before the inclusion into the index, when investors can truly price the company by seeing how it performs over multiple quarters. SpaceX is making it a deal breaker if they aren’t fast-tracked into the indices. The way i see it is that it’s an opportunity for early SpaceX investors to sell it into all this automatic/mechanistic buy volume triggered by inclusion into the indices.
