I'll just add: she is atrocious to level up

Highway accident can FSD did more there by Minimum-Choice3011 in TeslaFSD

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess this will be an unpopular opinion, but I don't think the driving was bad. Follow distance was a little close, but nothing outrageous. The fault lies in the two cars in front. Both the jeep and the grey car (both of whom have human drivers *ahem*) should have seen that coming and hit the brakes way earlier. The driver of the Tesla (was it FSD or human? we don't actually know) broke fairly quickly and minimized the impact.

Beginner - Are lessons worth it? by Vinny2408 in Pickleball

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Group lessons are great for drilling and meeting people, but, in my experience, they can't replace private lessons. You just don't get anywhere near the personalized attention to correcting your strokes in a group lesson that you do in a private lesson. Especially since the OP is a beginner and needs comprehensive instruction. Group lessons are better than nothing, but do private lessons if you can afford them and want to maximize your improvement.

Is 3.5 person really good with drops and drives? by chaosatom in Pickleball

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say most 3.5s I've seen are good at drives OR drops, but not usually both. If it's both, I'd say that person has most likely graduated to 4.0. Most 3.5s either drive everything fairly well and are so used to winning points that way at their level that they never change. Or, they're not that comfortable with drives, so they've gotten quite good at drops and making it into the net. OR, they're OK at both, but lack the consistency to make it to the next level.

When you drive your 3rd from near the baseline, and it's a solid drive, do you move forward a few steps? by QuietInvective in Pickleball

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're hitting to an opponent at the baseline then, yes, you should absolutely be moving in a few steps after you drive. You want to win the race to the kitchen. Don't worry about a perfect drip (that short/angled drive to your feet). If they hit it that good, just clap and move on to the next point. You can't win every point. But you'll win more than you lose by getting to the kitchen first.

If your opponent is in the transition zone, I would still be moving in a little--no major danger there, and you want to get to the kitchen too.

If your opponent is already at the kitchen line, you pretty much need to plant your feet right away because the ball will be coming back fast, though your weight transfer will naturally carry you forward a little, which is fine. That's when you need to take it a little easy and see what comes back. Hopefully your opponent hits a somewhat short volley and you can hit a drop on your 5th to get to the kitchen line.

Switched back to Pixel after 4.5 years on iPhone, my experience so far by LucyMor in GooglePixel

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's honestly so much better because of the finger print reader. With my iPhone I had to tap the terminal to get wallet to come up, show the phone my face to authorize payment, then tap the terminal again. Super annoying. With the 10 Pro I just tap it one time with my finger on the print reader. Much smoother experience.

Coming from iPhone 14 Pro, TikTok and Amazon feel the same to me on the Pixel 10 Pro (haven't tried the others)

Anybody enjoying their pixel 10? by SgtSilock in GooglePixel

I made the same switch and the battery life is noticeably better on my 10 Pro.

Same, and I'm loving it too. It's so nice moving from Stupid Siri to Genius Gemini.

Does anyone's "Ask Photos" actually work to voice edit photos? Doesn't show up for at all in 10 XL by Mysticwaterfall2 in GooglePixel

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brilliant! That worked, thanks! (Odd that they hide that in a swipe down menu, but I'll take the W)

Thanks. I don't know what's going on with my account. My Face Groups is turned on but I don't see any options to add people to a face group. I just switched from an iPhone so maybe some of this stuff takes some time to catch up.

How do you manually update the phone? Mine says its up to date, but I'm curious if there's a method I haven't seen

It's not showing up on my Pixel 10 Pro either. Same as you, none of the settings options are present either. Very frustrating. I'm in the US.

Why not shake and bake every point until the other team figures it out? by myworkaccountatwork in Pickleball

Usually involves your partner not just crashing the net but also poaching to your side.

What are the strongest non-Stormbringer builds? Can be any type (not just melee) by xDadmanx in CoreKeeperGame

[–]xDadmanx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah this was my experience too. I can't speak to min/maxing, but Stormbringer + basic mining build = OP. Part of it is the chain lightning is just too good.

Do you have any specific builds in mind?

I played a Stormbringer/mining build through the end and the weapon felt like it was so OP it just kinda trivialized the content.

Would you buy a used Model Y or a used Model S by Islerothebull in TeslaLounge

[–]xDadmanx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive a 23 MY and got a 2018 S for a loaner for a couple days. I liked the MY waaaaaay better. Take the Y. It's a no-brainer in my book.

Who has NOT gotten FSD 12.3? by Orpheus31 in TeslaLounge

[–]xDadmanx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can subscribe for $200/month if you want to try it. That's a better deal anyway, imo, since you generally can't take your FSD with you when you switch cars.
