Unlicensed operation of 3D printers and CNCs is now a felony in Washington?

It seems like the bill passed

[worn pier]

Imagine it actually does a good job eventually, been using it for very old media and is kinda not doing anything as far as I can see which makes sense but idk how it would help in any way for media under 1080p

[winged spire]

Washington is an Utter fucking shithole

Take not of the unenforced and know what is and youll be fine, dont be scared, be rebellious in a chaotic neutral/good way if you want

[winged spire]

Manufacturing is scary!!!

New York was planning on making a fucking registry for 3d printers like guns

3d printed guns are an imaginary issue for stupid people (it’s also expressly legal for most people in most states)

Washington will be the first state to fail

We have a large amount of anti process people in our government

This should absolutely be considered fucking treason as far as I’m concerned

The law applies to basically all manufacturing equipment so 3d printers, cncs, laser cutters

[wide igloo]

y'all watch marty supreme

[supple pawn]

What morons are electing these trash politicians? What kind of complete idiot sees giving up their privacy and personal freedoms for the illusion of security as a good thing?

[winged spire]

They plan to implement an “algorithm” built into the printers to detect gun parts as if that’s even possible

(It’s not)

The only thing the 3d printer see is a text file listing commands that tell it how, where and when to move

It has absolutely no context as to what’s being printed

Even if an algorithm has access to the 3d files or something it would still absolutely be impossible to detect

The former PM of Japan got assassinated with a home built firearm in JAPAN using stuff from literally any hardware store in the world, Japan is one of the single most anti gun places in the world and it didn’t stop shit

journalism is fine, but he's in it for the drama because it gets clicks

[harsh quartz]

Yeah, that’s how news works

[fossil frost]

journalism isnt fine... its full on "say whatever needs to be said for the betterment of GN"

any serious journalist would fact check properly, instead of fitting evidence to their narative

GN have always fitted evidence, and still do

and when they are called out about it, they try their best to burn whoever calls them out

i used to respect steve and GN, but they have turned into the fox news of tech news.. they say whatever suits them best on that day

[split wasp]

Would you sell a5070 because of what Nvidia doing now

And go amd

[split wasp]

I don't use nivida feature

[elfin jetty]

huh?

I dont have a 5070

[split wasp]

I have one

[elfin jetty]

I have a 3080ti i bought used for 500 bucks used years ago XD

[split wasp]

And wish I got amd instead

[elfin jetty]

i mean, if you wanna sell, sell.

I'm just gonna use mine for the next five years then go amd

[split wasp]

People were tell me it not worthwhile since it cost me 70$ to get a similar amd card

I use to a 3060ti it had fan issue

[elfin jetty]

so keep the card ya have, and upgrade when it doesnt do what you want it to do

you already have it

[fossil frost]

people are so hooked on pissing money away for the sake of pissing money away

[split wasp]

But it have issues with Linux and I hate window now

[fossil frost]

you will have issues under linux with any nvidia card for now

[split wasp]

That why I want to sell it since I don't like window at all

Not worth convinced me to go back to it

[fossil frost]

or, you can learn to avoid those issues

[elfin jetty]

idk how nvidia's drivers havent caught up, i have had next to no issues with my 3080ti on linux except for when i was being stupid and used the .run file bricking debian XD

[split wasp]

It is bazzite

I wish Linus had tried it instead of pop os

It as close to 0 fuss as you can

[elfin jetty]

if only pop_os would have warned new users that their DE is in basically alpha

[fossil frost]

i keep saying that "everything just worked fine" isnt a good video.. nobody would have watched it... "look at me fuck everything up" is a much more entertaining video that gets a lot of engagement from both sides

[elfin jetty]

i just find it really funny that both luke and elijah had barely any trouble lmao

[split wasp]

I just like how most of important systems files are in rom you can uninstall any system flat packs and make a new user and it be like stock

[fossil frost]

because linus as seen on screen.. is a character.. hes a fictional TV character that linus s plays for the screen.. and that character is specifically designed to drive engagement, because engagement makes money for the company

[split wasp]

How different is Linus in person

[elfin jetty]

I know, i was being genuine when i said i found it funny

[split wasp]

Do you get to talk to him at all at whales lan

[fossil frost]

TV linus is a very exaggerated version of real linus

[fossil frost]

at an LTT event, people will expect to meet the character, not the actor

[split wasp]

I won't mine both like start is character and then a actor segment right at end for people who want to

[elfin jetty]

Real life linus is a machine programmed by luke to sell more floatplane subs #LIENUS

[split wasp]

How far do people travel to it for me it is 6 hours of airplane and 800$

For a round trip

[fossil frost]

the "whale" in "whale lan" is a sales term for gullible customer who will believe anything and hand over a lot of money for very little return... i dont get why LTT lean into it, and i also dont get why people are willing to hand over a lot of money when they are literally being described as idiots with too much money

[split wasp]

I am so confused

[fossil frost]

"whale" is a sales term for idiot customer with too much money

[elfin jetty]

I mean, didnt they actually get a shit ton more

[split wasp]

The ticket are cheap to me it is the price of travel

[fossil frost]

this is what i mean, you are literally being described, by the event and its organiser, as an idiot with too much money, and you are still happy about it

[vapid smelt]

whale client can be defined as a client who brings substantial business to a company, often accounting for a significant portion of its revenue

Anyone use Plex here? Got a general question

I've got my own server but mainly use it as a local media server (upload speed isn't that good where I am) but I always see these massive Plex shares with 40k+ movies and 10k+ TV Shows for around $40 a year. Isn't that almost worth it? Yeah I guess you are paying for what is most likely pirated content but you're also paying for the hardware and the software that's letting you access it (hard drives, networking equipment, servers, etc). For that price wouldn't it make more sense to go with that rather than me continue my own personal Plex server? Just been looking into it anyways as I've seen some of these Plex shares pop up over the last few days on Reddit

[uneven stirrup]

Ew

[dense thistle]

anyone know anything about steam key sites? are they legit? will i lose the game?

[terse folio]

NVIDIA should never touch the character imo

touching the enviroment, people might still accept it

but touching the character is bad idea, IP holder will hate it

[eager yoke]

So. Dlss5 is a thing huh guys. Woo ai gpus

[quartz sinew]

It’s not that bad

Like I don’t like the lighting thing but other than that its good

[umbral wind]

Nvidia bad and outright evil

nothing new

or what we already didn't know

hell, the name itself comes from invidia (envy, jealousy - one off the Seven Deadly Sins)

[alpine gale]

If you mean sites like G2A or others that sell game keys at a steep "discount" ... Most of them are grey market or straight up doing illegal things to get the keys for that cheap. (For example, some sites knowingly purchase batches of keys that were acquired by people using stolen credit cards.) It's recommended to only purchase from legitimate sources, or those that the developer officially sanctions.

[junior wyvern]

Damn, I never realised the rtings thing where they hide the review would affect me till I tried to check a monitor today, I've visited the site a hand full of times

[pliant karma]

Also the keys could’ve been given by “good faith” with some devs for noncommercial use. But deceit to the devs when this is pulled. At least with smaller indie games I’ve seen.

[steel dragon]

Why are there no premium portable keyboard track combo

Just got the rii i4

But the trackpad latency is kinda bad

And it feels really cheap

[oak pier]

cause there's almost no demand for it

[steel dragon]

I made this it works great but it costs almost 400 bucks

[steel dragon]

I mean there definitely are

I also have the k400 but that also sucks pretty bad

[oak pier]

There is some demand, but not enough for any premium brands to care

[strange elk]

I keep thinking Luke is saying Wayland

[strange elk]

Its.. Pretty bad

Least for their resident evil showcase. Just tries too hard to be good and it breaks the atmosphere

[sharp summit]

DLSS 5 is exactly what i thought would happen when neural rendering was first mentioned , the folk bitching are the same ones when raster 3D first came , no one believed in T & L either

Every modern tech had origins in a shoddy initial implementation.

[vapid smelt]

https://youtu.be/qJEBaeiSwkM?si=Vu7cgj_sYwyL1ppD this is what Linus still uses no track pad though

[steel dragon]

I know this

But isn't it discontinued

[vapid smelt]

Seems so and I just found out roccat got bought out by turtle beach in 2019

[steel dragon]

Sad

Also the biggest takeaway from this video is apparently ur not suppose to rest your wrist on the table while typing

[steel dragon]

Yeah this sucks

I have it

I mean the keyboard is ok but the trackpad is bad

The pulling rate is very disappointing and overall it's feels really cheap

Tbh if there's a premium one that costs 200bucks that offer all the functionality I would be willing to pay

[vapid smelt]

Cut the screen off a MacBook and use that xD

2080 Ti is still a half-decent card if you don't need the latest technologies. I was using a 2060 up until last fall - only reason I upgraded was because a 5060 Ti came up for the right price, otherwise I'd have kept using the 2060.

I did not say you forced anyone. I am saying that people are free to choose the OS that works best for them. If this is Windows, great. If it's Linux, great! If it's MacOS, great! If it's OpenVMS... Less great but great!

[long briar]

thousands of dollars for colour swatches that expire

[tender saddle]

It's just my answer for user in previous messages

[long briar]

you can give all the reasons on why Kubuntu or idk what other OS you want to justify is better, even macos

but it comes down to: change for the sake of change is annoying

if Windows works, then why change

and if windows isn't working, get a better pc

[tender saddle]

Because quality of work is not acceptable. (Gustavo Fring)

[long briar]

who's that

also what

[harsh quartz]

even if you have to bring everything up from the start. All new equipment, servers, policies. most companies would likely still go with a windows, its just the best option (with the exception of servers cause those can be an exception)

[long briar]

you have an OS that is compatible with nearly every processor under the sun and uses instruction sets which were designed around it

I don't get what's the issue

[harsh quartz]

and, even for all the shit it gets, its pretty user friendly

[long briar]

windows 10... server?

[harsh quartz]

i didnt even notice that

[long briar]

your friend is called sysadmin?

like how you're called anonymous?

what next, you have a pet called mainframe?

[harsh quartz]

no, no, the pet is called cat

[long briar]

also mods, aren't accounts required to be like 6 months old to join or smth?

[tender saddle]

Yea) I don't know why he did it but it give me smile

[long briar]

You're running an outdated, nonsupported OS on new hardware and you're expecting full support and stability?

[tender saddle]

It's 2 years ago

[long briar]

point stands

windows 11 was released 5 years ago

and why are you running a desktop OS on a server?

[tender saddle]

And?

2 years ago windows was supported

[long briar]

"supported" in that it got security patches, not any of the newest scheduler optimizations or anything like that

[tender saddle]

And bug fixes

True or not?

[long briar]

not really.

Windows 10 was EOL since 2021, got the scheduler fix for P and E cores in Intel Alder Lake, then got dropped

then it was purely security patches

[tender saddle]

And bug fixes

[harsh quartz]

still hasnt explained desktop OS as a server

or what that has to do with windows vs other OS

cause definitely no other OS has crashed a server, ever

[long briar]

Of the last update prior to all support being dropped, they released 173 bugfixes, 172 of them were due to security flaws, and 1 in powershell timeout, and removed 1 driver that kept getting exploited

it's purely security updates.

and its been that way for years

[tender saddle]

Bro why you in tension ? I tell this story like cool story for smile

Just like o wanna see something cool

[long briar]

because you keep trying to justify something oh so wrong

Windows 10 instead of Windows Server for a server is insane work

[hot tartan]

https://tenor.com/view/armstrong-made-it-up-gif-25653819

[tender saddle]

But what I justify?

[long briar]

windows 10 in 2024 on a brand new system then saying it's unstable is hilarious because functionally, Windows 10 is stuck in 2021

then you say windows is unstable and a piece of crap LMAO

[tender saddle]

You wanna tell me windows 11 is not unstable and hilarious?

[tender saddle]

This i told before story

[hot tartan]

I've been using Windows 11 since launch and have had no major issues

[long briar]

I use it daily and I don't really complain much about it?

[hot tartan]

any time I had a "major issue" it was my own fault

[tender saddle]

Where you finding windows which not crashing and lagging

[hot tartan]

windows media creation tool

[long briar]

installed 2025 only cause I swapped my drive to a 990 evo plus

[tender saddle]

Like in Linux users ?

[hot tartan]

yeah, i've only reinstalled when I swapped platforms, and when I fucked up mem OC real bad

[long briar]

every one of the errors was either a) the battery died and the thing shut off abruptly or b) davinci resolve crashing because I ran out of vram lmao

[alpine gale]

Sure, for your needs. For the needs of others, it may not be that way. For example, in the business world, Microsoft products are the defacto standard... To be clear, I would love an alternative, but until such an alternative comes along, businesses will use the best available option for their needs.

[tender saddle]

Our top private post service using Ubuntu on Desktops

[alpine gale]

True, but this isn't Windows fault. Every software developer chooses the platforms their software runs on. Again, I would like more software to be available on Linux and MacOS but I don't control the developers whims so... 🤷

[tender saddle]

Our top market net using Oracle Linux

Our ATM using Gentoo or Ubuntu

[alpine gale]

Same. I use it daily at work, and have been using it at home since Fall 2022. The only issues I've had were caused by Nvidia's shitty QA process when releasing a few driver versions during the 50xx series launch year.

[hot tartan]

those drivers were vibecoded and I won't believe otherwise

[long briar]

oh my days don't get me started though, Nvidia app is probably as bad or worse than Crimson back inthe day

[harsh quartz]

nvidia app has always been terrible thop

[hot tartan]

I don't mind nvidia app, the drivers were just terrible with 50 series for a while

[harsh quartz]

didnt they literally say they were AI coded though?

[harsh quartz]

they also retroactively broke 30 series drivers

[hot tartan]

did they? I didn't see anything about that, but I would believe it

[tender saddle]

We have same sort of problem in Linux with Nvidia. But it seems Nvidia makes some moves right

Maine problem Nvidia don't cooperate normal with mesa

[harsh quartz]

i thought i saw an interview with the leather jacket man where he talked about AI coding being part of their driver process now. I can see if i can fidn

[alpine gale]

Remember when AMD GPUs were still ATI? Back when their driver "installer" literally just invoked the Windows Explorer file copy screen on Windows XP? The one you could accidentally cancel halfway through the operation, leaving your system without a working upon a normal reboot? 😅 I tell ya, sometimes software devs make me wonder so many things.

[long briar]

that's the thing, nvidia app combines the control panel and gf experience. you also get the weird mouse acceleration with the current form of shadowplay. And you get the stability of launch day Radeon Crimson...

[hot tartan]

yeah I'd love to see it

[tender saddle]

Nvidia releases open source kenrel module for Nvidia cards. You can see code in GitHub

[long briar]

Yep, and Crimson was supposed to replace Catalyst in the name of stability and somehow made it better and worse at the same time

I'm glad AMD brought Adrenalin cause it's far better than Catalyst and Crimson

[tender saddle]

Guys I thought Nvidia screw in ass only in Linux users

[hot tartan]

NVIDIA is an equal opportunity provider

it says so when you apply for jobs there

[tender saddle]

I don't understand meaning

Like junitor make code or what?

[harsh quartz]

https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/nvidia-now-produces-three-times-as-much-code-as-before-ai-specialized-version-of-cursor-is-being-used-by-over-30-000-nvidia-engineers-internally

3x as much code, similar bug rates, but also per that article theyre letting the AI handle the bug fixes as well, with human oversight

[hot tartan]

intgeresting, will give this a read, thanks

Cursor closed out its presser by claiming that the "bug rates have stayed flat"
And I'm the pope

[harsh quartz]

well, if 3x the code, and same percentage of bugs, thats 3x the bugs

and now if the bugs are being "fixed" by AI, theres no guarantee that the old bugs are actually being taken care of before new bugs are popping up

[hot tartan]

Oh yeah! I definitely took care of that old bug! You're so right for pointing that out!

[harsh quartz]

Your so smart for catching that! that definitely isnt an issue anymore.

[tender saddle]

Bro what problem? It is working? Working!

[harsh quartz]

on another page entirely, subnautica 2 woooo

[hot tartan]

🙏

[tender saddle]

What

[fossil frost]

its almost like LLMs that produce code, were trained on code produced by humans, and produce similar-but-worse code than humans, with a similar defect rate

[long briar]

oh that's why they kept the mouse capture method

because the llm thought it was working fine and didn't touch it

even tho it's awful

that's beyond stupid

[harsh quartz]

and if the AI thought it was right the first time, why would they realize their mistake and fix it the second time it looks at the same code

[fossil frost]

it doesnt realise, it needs a human to say "this is wrong, and its wrong in this particular way, this very specific thing is wrong and it needs to do this other very specific thing".. the human fixed it via the LLM

[harsh quartz]

if they have enough oversight/testing, which, if you have the same amount of workers, trying to review 3x the amount of code

[fossil frost]

companies like nvidia are now doing this with fewer workers than they did have, so its even worse than that. and they are gloating that they are able to do it, even though, in practice, more and more defects that would have been caught at QA, are now escaping QA and making it live, because... the public are a cheaper testing service than QAs that you pay for

they will have a standard set of smoke tests, and full tests, and an even bigger regression suite of tests.. all automated.. but.. all that does is make sure certain functionality always works in a certain way, it doesnt ensure that it performs well, and it doesnt mean that something that isnt covered by a test, will still work.. and.. a lot of stuff will not be covered by testing

companies are going hard on AI because they want investor money, and they have to show profits from AI, and the easiest way to do that, is to pay fewer people

makes the software worse, but leads to all this "i do 1m SLOC/day" bullshit on twitter, which is fucking stupid and a straight up lie

i could very easily have a LLM generate 1,000,000 lines of code per day... none of it would do anything.. but if i was in the business of getting paid by an AI company to lie for them... i wouldnt legally be lying.. but, realistically, i would be

summary: dont believe the bullshit behind AI/LLMs/Agents

[vapid smelt]

Remember the more lines of codes you make the better worker you are - Elon probably

Twitter was an ego thing

but Twitter didn't really get worse

[fossil frost]

ohh its gotten worse

[harsh quartz]

??

[long briar]

Twitter has always been a cesspit of drama

[harsh quartz]

may i remind thee of the blue checkmarks issue, and all the advertisers leaving

and grok

just grok as a whole

[fossil frost]

it was possible to avoid by being careful with what you clicked on.. not possible now

[long briar]

cybertruck to me is an even more successful version of the apple 700 dollar wheels

everyone talked about the wheels and the stand

which got people talking about apple which is what they want

cybertruck is a bad truck but it got people talking about Tesla and they got people buying it which causes even more discussion for as long as the truck exists

[harsh quartz]

except iirc tesla was doing better sales before the cybertruck

[long briar]

so as far as he's concerned the truck was a win

[long briar]

was that Tesla's fault or the chinese EVs that have been popping up tho?

like if you go to china rn it's insane

[harsh quartz]

the chinese EVs have not really taken hold in the US market

[long briar]

US Is not the only market Tesla wants

Especially now that Canada is importing chinese EVs for the budget sector

[fossil frost]

the problem with the cybertruck is that it is bad at being a car, and bad at being a truck.. and its more expensive than buying one of both of those things

[long briar]

EU is going insane with chinese EVs, etc.

[median idol]

Also if I wanted to see edgy try hard shit.... I would go to 4chan or KF. Stop being KF and 4chan, Twatter. You'll never be them in terms of being unintentionally funny

[long briar]

but Tesla probably got more people to buy the truck than apple got people to buy the wheel and stand

[median idol]

[long briar]

and you can easily overlook the stand and wheel if u see a mac pro, you can't do that with a cybertruck

[fossil frost]

Chinese companies bought a bunch of historic brands that were sat on the shelf too.. and revived them as "modern cars", even though they have nothing to do with the originals.. but.. its worked for china.. MG is a chinese company now, but sells LOADS in the UK

[long briar]

Yeap

[winged spire]

not a bad idea

[long briar]

it's actually incredible

scary, but incredible

[median idol]

Well fucking hell, YouTube. What took ya so long. This is actually a nice feature

[fossil frost]

also... china are doing the KIA plan on a 5x speedrun... KIA used to be a joke brand... and south korea sat and let it get slowly better and improve the quality... china decided to do the same thing, but in half the time, with 5 brands at the same time

within 10 years.. the chinese brands that are considered cheapo joke brands now, will be on par with here kia is now

[long briar]

like chinese ICE was not good, so they actually just speedran EVs

[winged spire]

I would not trust a byd ngl

[fossil frost]

they are buying ICE engine plans from EU companies, since a lot of them are manufactured in china anyway, and using those now

[fossil frost]

people said the same thing about kia 15 years ago

[long briar]

whether you like it or not they're killing it

[winged spire]

they keep talking about their 1300kw charging speeds but nobody is talking about what that battery is gonna look like in 5 year

[winged spire]

ok

[long briar]

isn't their battery tech like the 2nd most advanced in the world rn?

[winged spire]

wouldnt trust a kia either 🤷

youre gonna catch me walking before I buy a kia lol

[fossil frost]

its gonna look like the Hindenburg, but, like everything else, cars are gonna end up becoming throwaway items sooner rather than later

[graceful mortar]

the Cyber truck isn't bad.
he built out 300,000 unit PER year capacity based on demand .... the demand at $39,900 ... for a truck 20% bigger, and with 6 seats, 14,000 lbs towing, AND 3,500lbs payload (this would have been the tri motor, which was $69,900.) oh and OFC 500 miles of range.

They have sold ~70,000 bs expected 450,000 first year sales.
and now the prices will get cut until they can get them moving while they decide their next play for teh production facilities.

[harsh quartz]

tbf i still dont trust kias

and we own two of them

one of them has blown up

[winged spire]

kia also LOVES their subscriptions

[harsh quartz]

our kia optima had the engine blow up, and they replaced it after it sat for like 4 months. Luckily we didnt HAVE to have it, and its got a forever warranty on that engine, but its still not great

[winged spire]

what a great car feature (only for 200$ a year)

[graceful mortar]

CT isnt actually that bad, and huge bang for $ when it comes to engineering, but ... they final product didnt meet a single aspect of the orignal promise that generated 2 MILLION preoders in north america!

[long briar]

nowadays they're better, allegedly. But theta2 definitely kinda sealed their reputation for at least probably another 10 years

[harsh quartz]

yes, yes it is that bad

[harsh quartz]

the engines finally stopped blowing up, and immedialty all of them got stolen. you cant have a worse reputation, if your car doesnt die, it will go missing

[graceful mortar]

Elon saw sales convert to other brands with 3 and Y as they couldnt ramp up production fast enough and there was an 18 month waiting list. he vowed to not have that happen with CT, and it blew up in his face, oh and at $40k, goverment would be paying just under 20% of that cost with the tax credit.

[winged spire]

the Y is an incredibly well selling veihcle

[fossil frost]

tbh, all that sort of stuff does is encourage me to spend time on very dodgy russian forums, using my pigeon russian to ask for whatever exploits they have found, so i can try and write the code that exploit for the car and enable stuff that is behind those paywalls

It's interior and driving experience is really the only thing anyone can attest to as being great. It just sucks later on when stupid things start happening to it, even without a reason.

[fossil frost]

my last car was a ford mondeo (i think its called a fusion in the usa?), bought the titanium model (next to top), but it comes with all of the hardware for the titanium x installed, just soft locked off.. some nice russians on the forums allowed me to unlock all those features, and disable the EU engine restriction of 180bhp to open the engine to the max-safe-limit for that engine of 250bhp... saved me about 10 grand 😄

[graceful mortar]

yeah, gotta make money on teh 2nd and 3rd owners, not just teh first as they used to. same reason no more google in GM, that way you cant use your hotspot from your phone and have to pay ONstar a monthly fee of $35 per month. ($420/yr rn)

[dusky jacinth]

How was it accomplished btw? You need a specific tool at least, right?

[graceful mortar]

yes, but not as good as it could have been if they had teh capacity from launch, same reason 3 underperforms it despite being superior in every way (as far as reasons to buy EV), especially cost per mile.

[fossil frost]

for fords at least, its all config driven in various parts of the ECU, so you can modify it via the ODB2 port

[dusky jacinth]

Hmmm okay.

[graceful mortar]

you said ?? to my comment here #public-chat message

[fossil frost]

back when i did it, i had to write loads of really dodgy C code to push the commands myself... there is a program named "forscan" now though, which makes it super easy for Ford cars

[harsh quartz]

yeah cause you said its not that bad. but it is.

[dusky jacinth]

I wonder how simple that should be on Subes and Nissuns. Lol.

[graceful mortar]

well that's ALL Tesla's tbh, not enough real world durability testing.

[fossil frost]

i would recommend searching for "forscan for [brand of car i want to play with]", there are equivalent softwares for certain other brands

[dusky jacinth]

Of course it's that case. Lmao.

[dusky jacinth]

Cool and Good then. I guess I'll keep that in mind for future reference.

[graceful mortar]

no, what i was saying is the original one that was scraped was good, in fact would have sold 700,000 per year EASILY. the morphed thing we got in the end is why only 2.5% of preorders actually converted to sold.

[harsh quartz]

even it 40K base i would still say the cybertruck is not a good vehicle.

[dusky jacinth]

Honestly, if they did it in the same design style as the rest of their vehicles, it would probably be forgivable.

Though just not the build quality.

Then again, I would rather a vehicle actually built well that is of today's tech and manufacturing, even if it's lacking in all the extra comforts and conveniences.

[graceful mortar]

yeah, hell model s first gen get free motor replacements FOR LIFE because the CV's destroy it. and free batteries iirc.
the 3/Y have the bushing and steering rack issues, CT has the CV issues (cheap design, should have been radial joint due to ride height changes and power).
All of them have real world heat control issues. hell they didn't even fix the highway issue until S Plaid. STILL haven't fixed it on 3P and still lacks curve control/curve vectoring. (because the CV's aren't a strong enough design.

[graceful mortar]

$40k, 14,00lbs towing, 3,500 lbs payload, 6 seats, 500 miles per $60 charge.

[harsh quartz]

all that and still a piece of junk, wild

[graceful mortar]

nope with the promised 6.5 bed would have outsold EVERYTHING.

[harsh quartz]

it wouldnt have

[graceful mortar]

remember f150 4x4 no option truck starts at $55,000 and can do none of those things

to get the same capacity as listed for CT would be $85,000. CT was less than half that's $$ talks.
why do you think so many 3/Y sold? they were $20k cheaper than competition.

[silver sun]

the truck crowd is not the crowd that cares about economics

[graceful mortar]

yeah because $$, they dont car about brand at all

[harsh quartz]

sure

[graceful mortar]

reduce cost per mile by 95%, remove the $1,000,000 per year maintainer department (and sell the shop), AND buy 2x the trucks for the same budget?
they don't care about brand, their profits just skyrocketed. at a certain point it cannot be ignored.

any fleet manager who says they wouldn't is posturing, or needs to be terminated fro intnetional harm, and likley sued.

[graceful mortar]

i can dig up the the numbers if you want from our feasibility study. running cost was like $0.69 per mile, vs $0.07 per mile. redoing the fleet yard with level 2 (and a management system) was $450,000, and we could buy 2x for every 1 truck.
based on the #'s , if c-suite wanted to get aggressive, could 3x the company size in 24 months from just this change alone. Assuming we could fill the roles fast enough.
hell their biggest appeal wasn't even total cost, it was per mile consistency since rates are locked in for a year at a time vs fuel. when you negotiate a job 12 months out when fuel is $2.60, then it becomes $5.69 .... suddenly your profitability on the job just plummeted.

at 80mph? a Chevy Spark can only do 31 MPG at that speed, vs 40. Prius is around 28.

its$0.30 more per grade, so ~$4.60 would be your 87. premium would be ~$4.90. ( this is why trucks, 91 ... or in particular 93 (not available here) don't make sense.
diesel is ~35% more expensive, so that NEVER makes sense here to own until you are rolling down the road over 26,000lbs AND its making you money. below that its all gas.

I originally ordered a model 3 but they went out of production and then my assigned model 3 was actually stolen from the storage lot and there was no other options cuz they would not transfer into my state. So we worked kind of a bit of a deal and grab the Y.

I was told it would only get about 5% less economy then the 3. Which I previously had is a Hertz rental for 5 days just to make sure I could live with it.

It's not 5% ... Maybe in the city?? Where range absolutely does not matter.

On my test had it set at 68° the Y was still warm inside. On that 3 I had frost coming out of the vents, and actually had to put on a jacket...

I already have a MacBook pro

I need a windows laptop

Or what would you guys choose for gaming on the go

I need something that I can stream 2d game at 2k to valve frame

When it comes out*

[graceful mortar]

Nice, I only issue with the LFP was the charging curve and effectively ZERO cooling. It just falls on its face WAYY too quickly especially in the desert heat. The Y LFP was a JOKE LOL. Would start immediately heat soaking during the initial charge on the DC. You leave at 70% after an hour and 15 minutes. Drive the 1.5-2 hours of range that you've got. Go to plug back in and see that the car is limited to 15KW for the first 30% and then 1-4KW for the rest of the pack. Sit there for 6+hrs 😭. And learn why the LFP is cheap, when you see 30% power available because of the heat and stuck doing 40MPH in a 80 zone.

[steel dragon]

I travel a lot and stay at a place for couple weeks at a time

[winged spire]

Done plenty of 105+ days with mine

[graceful mortar]

By far my worst EV experience. In 3 you still have the limitations but It's less likely to occur because you can go considerably longer between the charge. But it realistically needs 6 plus hours on the highway to get back down to temp and you just don't have 6 hours of range in the car.

[steel dragon]

I’m planning on buying the steam frame and bring it with me

[graceful mortar]

Mac neo, u gonna only use chrome anyways.

[winged spire]

I do 0-80 in like 25 minutes in 105°

Nah I want something reliable

[vapid smelt]

The MacBook neo can do raytracing

[steel dragon]

Yeah I mean I can build a mini pc

But it’s too heavy

[graceful mortar]

Yeah, I think because the three LFPs were initially all non-heat pump. I suspect that that helps a lot since the air conditioning is not tied to battery temperature.

[winged spire]

Yeah I wouldn’t get any non heatpump Tesla

The old ones also failed quite often

I see a lot of the failures on the old cooling system

After like 100k miles it just shits itself

[vapid smelt]

When I get into a Tesla it takes a hot minute because how do the handles work ffs elon

[graceful mortar]

Yeah, the Y was at full throttle limited to 40mph, due to the dots showing limited power.

[winged spire]

Once you know how it’s easy

[vapid smelt]

Why do we make car handles horrible to save 5 miles of range

[winged spire]

They aren’t horrible 🤷

[vapid smelt]

The cyber truck has no external handles the new Aptera ev makes you fucking knock to open it

[winged spire]

Tesla is working on a door handle that’s mechanical and electrical so that criticism won’t be true anymore

[graceful mortar]

Oh you ment charging. Ya when you have to DC. More than once on a day of driving is where you run into the problems.
The Panasonic pack also runs into the problem but it's not as insane... Simply because you have a faster fatter charging curve anyways through more of the pack, And cylindrical cells that have more surface area for cooling versus rectangular pouch

[winged spire]

The aptera Is uncomfortable as fuck

[vapid smelt]

I wanted the aptera until I realized how wide it was AND KNOCKING TO OPEN DOORS

[winged spire]

Unless they’ve significantly changed the interior vs the one they showed at CES 2025

[graceful mortar]

Ya LFP. Li can do 10-80 in ~18 minutes when it's 40F out IF the pack is already up to temp, or close to it.

[odd pelican]

hey guys, ill be away for about a month. should i keep my ps5 and pc plugged in or is better to unplug both? ive heard electronic devices deteriorate if kept unplugged for periods of time, appreciate the help

[winged spire]

If your house has good grounding and stable power then it’s not an issue

No need to unplug

[odd pelican]

it doesnt

[winged spire]

🤨

[graceful mortar]

Well yeah ....

[winged spire]

You ever drive that long?

[graceful mortar]

... But the LFP Don't even make full power until 30 miles an hour (fake electric limit by Tesla) and then you hit the physical limitation at 55 MPH .... Are you comparing 1998 3 speed geo metros to the Tesla?

[winged spire]

Did you get that from an ai

[graceful mortar]

It has reliable as you make it and you can definitely get pre-built SFF if you want. Corsair one (is that still a thing?) for instance

[graceful mortar]

Uhh, unplugged. One lightning strike and it's all over.

[vapid smelt]

This one sits flush though

[winged spire]

if you dont let idiots (general public) drive your car and you simply dont crash its a non issue

[vapid smelt]

Unless you burn rubber like your buddy

[graceful mortar]

[winged spire]

speed rating is perfect for me

Up to 168 mph

[graceful mortar]

It's 20° colder in 110 temps. And can deal with humidity, completely independent of battery cooling. Heat pump cars decrease the amount of cabin coolant to keep the battery from overheating,
And even when the battery is not overheating they simply do not have a large enough compressor to keep up with the cabin cooling needs.

[winged spire]

fastest ive ever driven my car was 144

[vapid smelt]

I don't know my fastest my needle speedometer maxed out at 115

[graceful mortar]

Why? The open when you approach. You know nothing modern and safe will be as reliable as your death trap.

[winged spire]

this is simply false brother the newer cars have WAY better AC

[graceful mortar]

Nice, I was hoping Tesla were 300,000 mile cars with no mechanical failures, like the Old built in America vertically integrated cars were.

[vapid smelt]

China is banning them mostly because they had no mechanical back up for crashes

[winged spire]

I do 40k miles a year

I hope to do atleast 300k miles

[graceful mortar]

Oh 100% it was 1/10th the cost per mile. The issue is the depreciation. Selling after 4 years with only 20% retained value completely flips the CPM and total cost of other service.

[graceful mortar]

Yeah they look like they're motorized so you can walk up they pop out?

[winged spire]

depreciation only matters for buying new and buying new is fucking stupid lol

[vapid smelt]

1980s Volkswagen Jetta MK2 used R12 Freon and people saw visible fog come from the vents

I think they had the best acs

[graceful mortar]

True, also... Parts likes to use cheap tires Tesla also use cheap tires on LFPs and they all should have been minimal AS3+ Michelin. The cars heavy, with very soft suspension, and a low center of gravity.
Meaning when they break traction they are extremely difficult to control for a novice driver who drives with one hand on the wheel, seat all the way in the back seat and controls the pedals with their toe. 🤦‍♂️

[winged spire]

tesla uses the primacy MXm4 AC

a 270$ tire

[vapid smelt]

Hey what's wrong with one handed driving

[winged spire]

if you find teslas hard to control you should be forcibly taken off the road

[vapid smelt]

Utah Tesla drivers can't merge or use turn signals

[graceful mortar]

LFP Tesla =/= performance car in any way. Hell even the 3/Y P's aren't. Model S Plaid Track Pack is close, but heat soak is a huge issue.

[winged spire]

nobody is talking about performance models

literally everything youve said for the past 20 minutes has been incorrect

[graceful mortar]

A crash because you didn't buy a tire that could stop 20 ft sooner is always more expensive than the set of tires that would have saved 20 ft if possibly in your life.

Friends don't like friends buy cheap tires. Also y'all get RAIN! hell no. And below 40F = put a damn snow tire on. Especially with how unsafe that car is in a crash with modern vaults.

[vapid smelt]

@winged spire do you have at home charging at your apartment?

[winged spire]

no unfortunatly

[graceful mortar]

What size 😭

[winged spire]

I offered to pay half the cost for an installation with my landlord and he said no

absolutely would have been a good deal for him

an ev charger in an apartment would be a big plus to renting here

[vapid smelt]

195 /70 R14 I legit bought the best ones the hankook HAN KINERGY ST H735

[graceful mortar]

Sentry IF you ONLY drive in the dry and above 60F, the Westlake is dangerous trash, the HRX might be okay, But won't work in anything other than the dry based on trend design so might as well just get the century that also works in the wet. And without the continuous center rib it's going to drive like garbage and be all over the road.

[vapid smelt]

How much per kw is charging then 25 cents?

[winged spire]

depends on the charger

the one near me is like 33 cents per kwh

3x electical prices 😐

[graceful mortar]

I mean turning the switch on the surge off physically disconnects the power from the power strip so it's completely isolated, however electricity can jump... so I would just unplug it ... why not? You don't have grounding so it's not like there's any safety for your electronics anyways.

[vapid smelt]

So it's still cheaper over a gas sedan 25-35mpg per mile?

[winged spire]

on that roadtrip around I basically hit every possible tesla charging cost and it averaged to like 7 cents per mile

[winged spire]

certainly on average, even in louisiana where gas is cheap as fuck

My charging price hasnt changed in the 2 years ive owned the car

[vapid smelt]

30mpg at $3.60 is 12 cents a mile

[winged spire]

if anything its gotten cheaper on average because they started making charging much cheaper during off peak

ive seen it down to 17 cents per kwh for DC fast charging!

[odd pelican]

yea i figured, thanks for ze help

[vapid smelt]

Double what I get at 15cents a mile :/

[graceful mortar]

Ehh, LRR are just ehh. EV's are heavy (kinda, modern cars are fat now) and lrr is a problem when braking. Spend a little bit more on filling up the car or buy a new car from a crash.

Of course even in the performance tire world there are diminishing returns at a certain point like don't put a Trofeo R on your street car ... But yeah, You definitely get what you pay for in the tire market.

[graceful mortar]

Probably 120 for the 3.1

[vapid smelt]

You should make one for your car and bring it back to 100% with your new battery

[winged spire]

I have that actually lol

[graceful mortar]

Yes, they are mid, But from curb strikes Hertz was replacing them with someone no name "radar" tire. Ever wondered how a car with two good tires on one side and two cheap tires performs under emergency braking from 100 miles an hour?
Hint... It's terrifying even in a Tesla (high speed hydrobost ABS) as the car Pulls as hard as it would if you slammed the wheel straight to the lock. 😭 Oh and turning into right hand corners is a test of faith

"is it gonna keep going straight with the wheel turned or is that actually going to turn? Should I turn the wheel more, or will it roll over under the sidewall?"

[graceful mortar]

Yeah, that's most drivers. Most can't handle a 45° snap loose on wet roads, they immediately jump off the throttle which in the Tesla sends it violently spinning like a top down the road.

[winged spire]

lol

it screwed with the graph software too idk why it says -4512kWh

it actually goes to 0

[graceful mortar]

Odd with all that EV power huh?
It's like the Prius owners.. they buy the prius for fuel economy .. but then they want to like "get extra" so they just do it by being super antisocial and reckless ... like pulling in front of 75 mph traffic will doing 45 and then swerving to block you when you dive to the shoulder to go around them because it's unsafe for you to slam on the brakes....

[winged spire]

the model s plaid EATS through tires because its instant torque, 1420 Nm, AWD and 900 horsepower

[winged spire]

when was this lol

you said pre heatpump so basically nothing youve said is relevent for the past decade of teslas

[graceful mortar]

Change to a 15 to have safer tire options. 15 inch wheels are CHEAP, And you can get a good quality set for under $400.

[graceful mortar]

Nice, when I bought mine it was .09 per kilowatt in the middle of the night at .11 during the day. In March it should up to .65 per kw during the day, and .35 at night.

Unfortunately for me based on my calculations I should have never ever needed to use the supercharger unless I was on a road trip. But I simply could not recharge the vehicle fast enough since it was using 60% of the battery every single day with my daily commute... It was supposed to be 25% max.

I went to the service center and they said oh yeah no that's what these cars do here because it's so hot... Kay ... You aren't commission... that's probably something you should have advised me of especially when I gave you my exact plans 45 miles a day.

[graceful mortar]

Maybe. Gas would be 0.08 per mile (at $2), vs .15 per mile on the Tesla (400wh). BUT remember the Tesla doesn't have any normal maintenance other than fluid changes, So you really do need to look at your total cost per mile not just the fuel cost per mile.

[graceful mortar]

Lucky, Thor residential price has gone up 300% in the past 5 years so I guess that makes sense.

[winged spire]

show me a single station in the country selling 2$ gas bro

"at (an insanely low EV efficency) and at a (insanely low gas price) the gas car comes out ahead"

propaganda use to be believable

[graceful mortar]

I mean, it was doing it at 80F in March. DCFC builds HELLA heat! And then there's not enough radiator in the car to actually get rid of the heat quickly enough. But then also just last remindful that it's structural so if you cool it too quickly damage cells. I understand WHY. I just thought they what engine are their way around it.

On the heat pump cars they will run the compressor at full tilt but they'll only give about 15% of the cooling capacity to the interior, when the batteries are approaching the thermal shut down area and this typically will occur when you start to see half of your power bar covered in dots.
I got mine down to 1/4 power once when I was hopping from one charger to another because there was some issue and it was charging too slow.

[vapid smelt]

Diy Chinese cooking oil to Diesel count?

[vapid smelt]

Minus a few small holes in the rear wall you can't access the trunk without a key, no trunk open lever in the car . No folding seats

[graceful mortar]

I understand, Tesla's verbiage is if it can drop 20° from the exterior temperature the vehicle needs no service.
Well I want my interior at 67F even when it's 120F out and cruise is set to 82MPH. And it just WONT do that.
The preheat bump cars not only can but they do. They also run into battery temperature limitations very very quickly vs LI since they don't have any ability to cool the battery at the air conditioner.

I believe Monro live has a full deep dive and there's some university that also has one for the Tesla Y cooling system and you can see the lack of surface area being a MASSIVE issue on the heat pump cars.

[graceful mortar]

A shocking amount, But that's because they've already been proven that it makes no difference to the interior temps. It reaches the peak temp 10% sooner than a white car but there is no actual difference in temps.

[graceful mortar]

The shocking part is black in Arizona where the sand put scratches in it just driving down the road...

[vapid smelt]

Minus touching the car panels 😆

[graceful mortar]

Well, They will also assume that you're like not financially well off so they'll leave you alone.. The same way that my diesel truck is worth $30,000 but I intentionally left the beat up bed on it That way it doesn't get stolen because they're super easy to steal.

[graceful mortar]

No but that's what I was saying it's like that's one of those cars where you have to buy new to maintain the battery within its operating parameters if you want it to last.

[graceful mortar]

If you're seriously telling me that you've never had any of the thermal issues that I'm talking about you're not even close to "heavy use"

hell I didn't even tow with my Y ... They use over 1,000wh/mi at 75 mph towing. Meaning 60 miles per charge ish, And then because you depleted the battery so quickly by running full power continuously then they refuse to charge for a good 30 minutes They will just sit there on the charge of running the cooling system..

[winged spire]

ive had issues with the cold, literally none with the heat and its 95 degrees and 100% humidity for like 8 months of the year

[graceful mortar]

Well. Kinda, air cool batteries yes. The problem though is let's go back to what we started with My car needed 110% of the capacity listed to the driver to make it to quartzsite. If I have any duration whatsoever they cannot make it between superchargers.. And remember that was the Panasonic pack the best version made for the chassis.

[winged spire]

[graceful mortar]

The m3 Tesla loaners were pre heat pump. Since they just pull 70,000 mi cars that got traded in and used them continuously on the service loaner program because they know they're going to go to auction because they have no retained value.

[winged spire]

Totally depends on the sc, both of my loaners were basically new model 3 performances

My friend in Hawaii had an issue and he just asked for a cybertruck and they gave him a cyberbeast for a week lol

[graceful mortar]

Oh something something President guaranteed if you voted something something
No further comment

[graceful mortar]

That isn't low though, I took the Tesla service manager on the highway and he confirmed that is expected consumption for a model Y at 80 mph and suggested keeping the speed around 56 miles an hour which is where the Tesla gets its EPA rated range. 🙄🙄🙄. So 300+ miles per $25 charge was a complete lie.

[winged spire]

that we can agree on lol

[winged spire]

not a single model y driver would agree with you lol

my model y loaners werent doing NEARLY that bad

I was in brownsville texas for that

pretty damn hot

sounds like you should have pursued lemon law 🤷

tesla service is pretty shit

I dont go to the service center near my house because its full of idiots, the one past it is actually good

[graceful mortar]

Here is ALL the battery cooling you get on heat pump cars, it SHOULD be enough, But the compressor is undersized for dropping the interior temp by 50F and cooling that 60C battery pack, well it's also building more heat from continuously providing power to the vehicle.
that is THE issue. It should have been dual compressors one for the battery one for the interior and we would have never had a problem.

[graceful mortar]

Why are you touching the panels? The handles are plastic

[graceful mortar]

It just depends, on all my road trips I have to first stop at the supercharger to make sure I'm able to make it to the next one.
So the battery's already nice and warm, Then I drive a hundred miles and I need to charge it again completely and so on and so on.
I kept mDC charges short, I typically unplugged at 70% (except for the first one which I took it until taper which was typically 80 to 84%) unless I knew I needed more and just stopped at every single charger about every 45 minutes to an hour there for 15 minutes and gone.

So like on a single day I would do ~5 DCFC. I also had the adapter to use CCS chargers as well.

[graceful mortar]

Yep, because It has the same basic cooling design philosophy as the Tesla heat pump cars. AND, because that battery pack is so damn large and a lot of stations charge per minute not per kilowatt so it's important to get as much as you can as quickly as possible It gives a better "user experience".

The user can't complain about slow charging with the air conditioning on if you just don't let them run max air conditioning. 🤙

[graceful mortar]

No no. MY model Y that I bought was doing 370-404 per mile at 80MPH cruise. Like literally my car. I got a 2021 model Y lowner at first and that's when I learned that the old suspension was substantially better because my 2023 would just slam the bump stops constantly going down the road.

The 2021 Y consumption was not that much better. I mean we saw like 350 to 370. The SR+ 3 was the best as I showed above. The LFP 3 Numbers was 273 BUT I felt that it was invalid because, The Mixed tires, the vehicle was also constantly running into the performance limiter on the highway due to heat. therefore was unable to maintain the same set speed all the other cars did, The other ones with stay between 78 and 82 the LFP would fall to like 69 mph. 👀

[graceful mortar]

Couldn't, in order to pursue lemon law first manufacturers to identify that there is even a problem ... if they claim that it's "operating as designed" even if you can show that other vehicles are performing better they can claim manufacturer tolerance and you have no case.

[graceful mortar]

Yes, And non-desert environments I'm told that it is completely fine in fact I'm told in areas where the air temperature is not over 140° entering into the radiator they are fine.

But you also have to remember something, when it leaves the DCFC is at 59C 60C is when it aggressively starts pulling power. You were trying to take that battery pack slowly so you don't cause damage to it all the way down to 30C ideally. You can't really oversize the liquid cooled condenser because then you'll damage the battery. So you're limited by the LCC's actual capacity. However, You're then also asking that air conditioning compressor which has last BTU capacity than the previous cars to also cool the cabin.

Tesla's algorithm is obviously to prevent the battery going up in flames while you're driving so your comfort becomes the secondary to their battery safety. Even running at 8,000 RPM (which is the maximum compressor speed) it cannot stop the battery from picking up 20C in a + 60% charge session. Now you were driving and depleting slower than you can charge. However you're still generating additional heat load.
So are you adding to the pack about ~25-30% of the heat per second that you were when you were charging. That air condition compressor is trying to get a head on the battery cooling,

meanwhile you're telling it to perform like some of the largest automotive air conditioning compressors do to cool the interior, and it just can't.

[graceful mortar]

You have NO IDEA!

Initial Super Heavy V3 and Starbase Pad 2 activation campaign complete, wrapping up several days of testing that loaded cryogenic fuel and oxidizer on a V3 vehicle for the first time. While the 10-engine static fire ended early due to a ground-side issue, we saw successful startup on all installed Raptor 3 engines. Next up: preparing the booster for a 33-engine static fire

When do we think that LTT will have their review of the MacBook Pro M5 pro/max up? Seems kind of odd that neither LTT nor MKBHD have their reviews up for this generation.

They force the price to show if you use their pay app ($0.10 less than cash). Since we went over 14 days. I'll find out soon for the #1 food retailer how much they are gonna increase their prices. Last hike was 20% after the shrinkflation of 20%. 👀

[sturdy dune]

they do but they sell out quickly or are hard to get

they usually dont hit stores. im sure there are a few exceptions

[gilded quest]

They've been doing FE drops since 30 series

I've never seen a 30/40/50 series FE stocked in store (excluding like an open box or something)

So I know the "woz" and shared the core master remote video. He really liked it. he didn't watch it all of yet but this is what he said:

This is the COOLEST thing I’ve watched in ages. I’m impressed that the presentation is so accurate and complete. I’m amazed too at what I did way back and how good it was, although I was lucky to have had a great development team. I’ve only watched part of it so far but as soon as I have time I’ll watch the whole thing. I’m especially glad to see others recognize the greatness of making a universal remote a computer and the method of learning codes. I admire others who do things like this.

Anyone at LMG let me know if you would like me to forward the email to you.

[sage quiver]

Sending you a DM.

[strange elk]

[sage quiver]

@warped minnow Appears your DMs are disabled. Mind shooting me one so I can reply?

[graceful mortar]
