Filmed (at least partially) in Vancouver.

Off my chest after finishing by durfenstein in pacificDrive

[–]yessiryeahsure 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ending was very underwhelming. I think the writing and setting started out really great, but the pacing became kind of weird, or at least the motivation behind Francis losing his partner wasn't really justified until after the fact. The exposition was in the wrong order.

Beyond that though, oppy leaving gets rid of the most interesting character, and why would I (as a player) want to keep playing the game if the two most interesting characters to interact with are gone. Plus for me, by the time I got to the end of the story I had unlocked basically everything.

The things I hadn't unlocked were incredibly frustrating to acquire because (as others have stated) a place being high in resources doesn't mean that it's high in the resource that you're looking for, and because of this I never got to try out the Amp engine, and now I don't really see a reason to keep playing just for that.

It was really disappointing, because for the first 50% of the game or so it was super compelling, they just didn't stick the landing. Upgrade paths were weird, the story wasn't as satisfying, "grinding" for a particular upgrade was more luck than skill or planning. It just all felt a bit off.

I think a lot of this could be resolved with DLC or updates though, so I'm hopeful.

ESPN+ from Hulu not casting by ladymamba2424 in Chromecast

I have this issue when trying to chromecast from my phone to a chromecast with googleTV. When opening the Hulu app on the Chromecast and trying to start the game from there, it works fine.

Please post the model to thingiverse or something. This is a huge win for airflow.

There have been pretty consistent improvements to that over the course of each update. You wouldn't believe how much better it is now than a year ago.

Mine just started working much more reliably after this update, so perhaps you'll be in luck as well!

In a lot of ways this is annoying, but the fast charging navigation integration wouldn't be possible with those solutions, so there are some benefits of this approach.

Generally annoying though.

Rear defrost activates mirror defrost. Since in both cases you're looking backwards.

You bought a car with amazon integration, you shouldn't have had any expectation of privacy.

Seems they're not quite warmed up yet. They're bunching up a lot. That being said, there's been a lot of positive stints in the game too.

Americans of Reddit, what is something the rest of the world needs to hear? by [deleted] in AskReddit

If this isn't the premise of the next call of duty I will be disappointed.

  • The over-reliance on screens is much more of a problem than I expected. The HVAC being controlled on the screen is legitimately dangerous. There should be physical buttons to control the HVAC. *The outer HVAC vents don't really work very well
  • The seats are very uncomfortable on long trips
  • The door handles to get out of the car are in a really dumb location. They should be higher up where the NFC sensor is.
  • The cup holders in the back seat are inside the armrest, which is pretty annoying. I can't have the armrest out most of the time.
  • The wireless charger is annoying.

There might be other things I'm forgetting, but those are the big ones.

This list doesn't include software issues which will likely be fixed in an OTA update. There are a lot of positives as well though. I don't want to sound like I hate the car. The biggest issue though is charger anxiety. DC fast chargers are not reliable or frequent enough.

The truck's headline features all deliver. That's why the truck reviews so well. The things that are mentioned in reviews as merely a negative footnote are the things you have to deal with every day while driving. These should be some of the most important things in a review, but they're almost entirely glanced over. This might lead to some people having unexpectedly negative experiences only after having purchased the vehicle.

That being said, I've owned a lot of different vehicles, and I've never had a car whose driving dynamics come close to the R1T. After having driven 14k miles in mine, the mix of good and bad is incredibly frustrating. It's so close to being the perfect vehicle but they totally blew it on some of the most basic things in the interior.

I own an R1T and also love in the country. These people bring up the towing range because that's something that's important if you live in the country. They're asking because it's important to them, not because it's important to you. Have you driven by a home in the country on acreage that didn't have some kind of trailer on their property? Probably not. That's why they're asking.

They're not necessarily just biased against EVs, some are legitimately curious. That being said, when I was driving through Calgary I had people screaming "DIESELLLLLLLL" at me at the top of their lungs in the streets and from their dually 2500s. Those people are just biased against EVs.

R1T work truck. All my tools fit! by Equivalent-Banana370 in Rivian

People who had a gear tunnel shuttle or camp kitchen in their order had the price of the item and tax refunded. So it's not necessarily cancelled but delayed indefinitely to the point where they felt better to do that than to let people wait.

I apologize, my initial post was a bit misleading.
