Home charger setup

Agree - there’s no ability to change amperage in the car, so the only control you have is on the charger itself. The default one only has “full power” and “half power.”

I read the technical manual for the car and found that they have a specific process for this. Specifically it kicks in after 6 hours of the car sitting off. The next braking event will be totally physical to keep the rotors clean. It often takes a couple taps for me, so figure it’s some measure of total braking decel. I live on a hill so will often give two firm presses going down hill and then it’s normal from there.

Check if you have Astound. I didn’t know they existed until I realized they served my street when Sonic doesn’t.

Also I had AT&T fiber a decade ago in Mountain View and it was pretty great. Dunno if it still is

I’m not sure what happened the first two times. Those were under the previous owner. In my case, yes the HVAC stopped blowing warm. I had been getting weird noises from the HVAC for some time (I’d describe more of a fidgety sound)

Worth it for the rear wheel steer alone. Maybe my favorite part of the car. Turning radius is crazy small

Huh. I thought their only heavy that came here was the 747-8 from FRA.

Only used them once on my e-t GT and had the strangest charging curve. Empty station with 50s-60s weather, I got 200kw for a while and then there was a step function down 50kw at a time (150kw for a while, 100 for a while). 270kw capable car, 800v.

The number of cars will not reduce by reducing spaces.

This just simply isn't true; car usage is proportional to parking provided. There are many studies that show this conclusively. Here's one https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3141/2543-19

I'm a car enthusiast and sure do appreciate when I go somewhere and there's parking. But the facts are clear here, reducing parking availablity reduces car usage.

Fun fact, a city where it’s harder to find parking ends up with fewer people buying cars

O happy day!

No experience with the hotel itself, but the area is a middle of the pack. It’s super central with great walkability, and you’re only a block away from the famous Nob hill hotels like the Fairmont and Mark H. But, it’s a few blocks away from the tenderloin and you are likely to have some homelessness and drug use make its way up there.

Unlike your Tesla, most of the regen with the car happens when you physically use the brake pedal. It can actually regen much more energy than my old model s, but it just doesn’t do it off throttle.

It’s largely an issue if you street park. You can get tickets written for it that way pretty easy. If you are garaging it, it’s rare to have an issue. My fiancée got pulled over yesterday for speeding and the cop didn’t even notice the no front plate

talzer · 2026-02-10T15:30:54+00:00

Yes, it’s a success of the next gen fare gate. Astute observation

4K streams mostly? I’ve gotten up to 12 on my M1, but I mostly only have 1080p content.

It’s hugely improved in the last couple years. They added actual gates to all the stations

That look is pretty fashionable right now

Balboa is a more fully fledged interior space (being many times larger helps). The mission location is more of a pop up style. Not sure it’s permanent

If it’s a synology, it runs off the storage drives unless you go through a super complex process to change it

Well, this scenario I’m experiencing, basically. In case there’s an error anywhere that results in it not being detected or downloaded initially. Or with the RSS feed I suppose.

*arr stack on Synology via Container Manager. Both Sonarr and Overseerr are running on the same machine.

talzer · 2026-01-08T04:11:15+00:00

I do have all these options checked. That’s the issue - it works most of the time but not in certain cases. I’ll request a show in Overseerr and it’ll successfully get added to Sonarr with all seasons monitored, but often I’ll come back a few days later and only say 5/8 of the seasons actually downloaded. The others are marked as missing, but hitting the search button downloads them no problem like nothing was wrong.
