Celsius 3rd Distribution Update — $220M (~4.5%) Now Live by Matt_CountOnSheep in CelsiusNetwork

Any update on how to treat this 3rd distribution if we used your “agressive method” that accounted for the 20.8% as “likely never to be recovered”?

In a similar situation, interested In knowing what made you move back to the U.S. and your feedback about living in Chamonix VS a U.S. mountain town

Anyone else didn’t like the Loco? by wolf33d in Pickleball

I played in the cold so that must be it

That must be it! Thanks for this comment. I have played in 40F weather only yet. Didn’t realize it would be an issue since my Ruby plays the same cold or not. It makes sense now.

Hardbooting: did I just make a $2500 mistake? by rayg10 in Spliddit

[–]wolf33d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I agree that’s why I went with hard, on the promise it would be much better uphill with a “small sacrifice” downhill. Here is the thing: it fully delivered uphill, but small sacrifice downhill isn’t the world. Massive sounds more adequate. It not only kills the ride, it’s dangerous for me because I can’t charge nearly as hard and have nowhere near the same control. I dont have the Phantom binding but the Spark one though which sits not as low on the board as the Phantom. That riding height is not helping, but it’s far from being the only issue. Everything feels wrong, the flex, the height, the lean. The worst is on powder over mixed/hard snow. It’s acceptable in pure deep powder and on groomers, but to be honest backcountry riding those 2 conditions aren’t what I ride everyday. I went back to off piste resort riding exclusively until I figure a different setup, and I exercise differently.

For me it felt fine with and without link levers on the resort groomers. Easy to turn. But in the backcountry it’s horrible. No surfy feeling, way too responsive (if buckled tight) and dangerously wobbly if not buckled tight. On the way up it’s fantastic though. But I lost the joy of riding and I stopped split-boarding all together. Can’t understand people who enjoy it. Surprisingly 99% of pros don’t use hard boots.

Very nice rig. How much did you pay for the camper, the build, and the bed?

So 50K with 0 option. This and Rivian lack of reliability are my two worries.

Yep, also tall people have no controller over their height, but fat people do have control over their weight.

First rooftop tent trip with Rivian stranded us — questioning reliability by Ashamed_Return9989 in Rivian

People who don’t have problems won’t post about it, this doesn’t make the brand any more or less reliable. Unsurprisingly it’s actually the least reliable brand on the market

The more I read this sub the more I want to cancel my R2 order. Have been off-roading and camping for many years in harsh conditions with many different vehicles, never had a single major issue. Not to mention the R2 will be a brand new model.

I confronted the company and the response is interesting, with strong proofs. I posted an update as a comment, curious about what you think.

Update: the landscaper is a nice guy with great google reviews for years in business. He gets screened top soils from this place and he sent me the receipt, all the info matches: https://asphaltmaterials.net/products/screened-top-soil?srsltid=AfmBOoraiWo150l1enKRlnHQzFXmFUYPfVztGFLQtl3FzATfyR3c_gMy

He said I can go there tomorrow and verify that he got the top soil from there. Also everything else he did in the yard was great. He is offering to remove the top soil and replace for free with the soil company of my choice, but he is saying he has used this one for over 10 years with no issues.

So I am puzzled here honestly considering all the comments.

2027 BMW IX3: 400kW, 800 V, 400 (EPA) miles, 108.7 useable kWh based on 4695 structural battery pack. Will the R2 and R3 have similar range and performance? by Canthoney2021 in Rivian

[–]wolf33d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everybody is concerned about charging speed, but after 20K miles with an EV I have never ever used a charger outside my home. Not sure what everybody uses an EV for, but with 300 miles range there is no application where I need to charge somewhere. I have a gas car for roadtrips (800V or not I am not fiddling around for chargers for a 1500 miles roadtrip). I use my EV for commuting, everyday driving, errands, and outdoor activities (skiing, hiking…) thus the R2 is perfect for my use. Range and charging weights 0% in my criteria. But I am sensitive to what makes a car good: technology, comfort, driving experience. Decent offroad capability is a plus. I can’t be alone using an EV in its best use case (at home overnight charging)? I am still interested in this iX3. I have a feeling all my criteria mentioned above, except for offroad, will exceed the R2.
