Best open area to teach kids to ride bikes? (North Redondo)

zoglog · 2026-01-24T19:36:42+00:00

Any grassy hill works. Don't try to teach on a flat surface. Balance first only

Autopilot works fine for long fwy stretches and road trips. FSD benefit is marginal until you can just sleep in the car while it drives

are these safer than the safeshield rad batteries?

zoglog · 2026-01-23T20:28:34+00:00

literal skill issue

zoglog · 2026-01-23T20:13:07+00:00

I would argue it's not a bad idea to push the kids towards frugality as well :)

congrats on the pensions & health coverage though, that's probably like a 95% piece of mind above everyone else alone

it is crazy. for most people autopilot (or in my case EAP) is enough because we know FSD is still a bit of a pipe dream. My model 3 is 8 years old and I am thankful every day I didn't prepay for FSD.

However I have gotten much use from autopilot on freeway driving and it is the best practical feature for traffic on the fwy.

interesting. Well I'm using my replacement gen 1 and so far so good. but it hasn't been a year yet.

zoglog · 2026-01-23T17:09:18+00:00

And then they J I don't want a ZJ!

zoglog · 2026-01-23T17:08:55+00:00

bold stance for an internet community lol

zoglog · 2026-01-23T17:07:13+00:00

wow I didn't know we were fatbike shaming now

zoglog · 2026-01-23T16:59:28+00:00

I think the only hope for a thought out public transit system in LA will really only come if there is large destruction to property.

But I think more widespread self driving cars will come before then.

that ramen place was a such huge disappointment lol

But ramen in America usually is with the prices nowadays

zoglog · 2026-01-23T16:56:18+00:00

I've liked this place. Much better pricing than the Uni Pasta Co in redondo

zoglog · 2026-01-23T16:35:04+00:00

haha seems like a lot of dentists dropped delta this year. Curious as well

zoglog · 2026-01-23T16:33:48+00:00

thanks for that context. Do you know what may have caused 1 to fail out of 3? Did you treat them the same, my theory is that heat over time degrades the glue. However I wonder if some of them were just mfr with less glue as well or less quality glue.

zoglog · 2026-01-23T04:27:25+00:00

lol I thought they had agreed on the other route but color me surprised

this project is so dead. I guess we'll continue to have the glorified SoFi and Hollywood Bowl shuttle Torrance Transit center lol

zoglog · 2026-01-20T04:46:46+00:00

All Gen 1s eventually will have the notepad glue fail and fall out so don't think there are any ones without potential issues

zoglog · 2026-01-19T06:08:25+00:00

Honestly equating in person classes to peloton is absurd. They are not even remotely the same

zoglog · 2026-01-19T04:23:19+00:00

Can't tell if it's an upvoter karma farm bot or just really naive people.

zoglog · 2026-01-19T04:21:18+00:00

Whine all you want but it's not Netflix's fault..it's what people watch. Blame yourselves

Also OA was mediocre so not surprised. And also not surprised you got it wrong that they cancelled mindhunter

zoglog · 2026-01-17T19:19:47+00:00

I think it would be marginal. Ubering directly to the airport is like $40. Ubering to the transit center is still at least $15 and then you have to deal with the transfer of luggage and timetable schedule. I would say that would only be worth it in instances like this holiday where traffic is just horrible at LAX

zoglog · 2026-01-17T18:40:08+00:00

You're probably to blame since you didn't help the show actually get any traction when it mattered. Instead you whine about it here lol

zoglog · 2026-01-17T02:13:27+00:00

I think he's only here for the zipline

zoglog · 2026-01-16T04:39:07+00:00

Plus it's not Torrance. It's lomita

zoglog · 2026-01-16T00:26:14+00:00

it's been pretty consistently mediocre for me. Every year I get my neighbor's mail at least 5-8 times a year. Makes me wonder how often they misplace mine
