There was a thread in here about spiders and other creepy-crawly things getting mushed in connectors. I have to believe that there is at least some increase in impedance when using an adapter. If a bug got stuck between the pins, it may cause just enough resistance to heat the cable to the point...
That’s the approach that confuses me.
I pull up, start backing up until I can see the right front corner of the vehicle behind me in the driver side mirror, then turn the wheel clockwise and finish backing in
but if it works, it works. Being able to parallel park is better than the alternative
I’m convinced how you learned to parallel park is the controlling factor on whether you want a vehicle that can parallel park itself. I do not find parallel parking difficult but my better half and the kids do. They learned a technique that, to me, is just weird because you don’t use your...
Before the 2025.14 update, I received the notices that cross traffic warning was unavailable when starting up. After the update, the message is something like “sensors warming up” or something like that. I installed the 2025.18 update a day ago and will see what happens the next time I head out
Looking forward to the opening of the SC in Aldie Virginia. The recent opening of the Glen Burnie SC not too far from the Gaithersburg SC has to indicate strong sales in the DC metro area.
I thought the benefit was not an increase in the instantaneous charge rate but keeping the higher portion of the charge rate higher for a longer duration?
so a true comparison would need to relative to the initial SoC.
Took the wife to Shake Shack on Saturday. I spied a spot next to a silver R1S and was making a beeline toward it when my wife objected. She has seen too many of my “parked next to a Rivian” pics.
On the way home, ANOTHER Rivian pulls up besides us and motions to roll down the window. Of course...
I wonder whether the seat calibration is tied to the driver such that switching or adding a new driver would calibrate differently. I appreciate you’ve likely dropped off the truck by now.
With respect to the PaaK issues in this and previous updates, I have not experienced them. Did the Rivian app always have the “Always” allow location access option? I generally only allow location access when using apps, if at all.
However, the comment from Rivian about PaaK not not needing the...
I guess the strength of the filaments can vary? I remember the old ones were pretty weak. There have to be filaments out there these days that are pretty strong (not like brittle strong but resilient strong).
Soon enough, you’ll be smiling at everyone who starts revving their engines at stop lights and waiting to recite the immortal lines “I’m not left handed.”
Y’all 3D printer folks are impressive. You look beyond complaining about difficulties to finding concepts of solutions and then turning those concepts into actual solutions.
