  1. EVGO Warning - insecure service

    I’m no cybersecurity professional but the process is painfully clear and spelled out in detail if you just read the words on the screen instead of blindly clicking ‘next’ when you enroll. Auths disappear from your CCstatement in a few days, but auths also don’t generate refunds like you’re...
  2. 7 major automakers launch EV charging network [Not EA] -- GM, Stellantis, Hyundai, Kia, Honda, BMW, Mercedes

    Their stations will be dual plug, both CCS and NACS. CCS dies in 2025 but like ChaDeMo it will take 10-15 years before the share of CCS vehicles on the road drops enough that everyone can retire it completely.
  3. Pettiest complaint: I hate the turn signals

    My complaint is even more petty: when you half-hold the stalk for two blinks and then release, it still does three blinks. I have a pretty deeply ingrained indicator usage pattern - I fully engage the signal when making turns, I half-tap for three blinks on lane changes, and I...
  4. Windshield glass is trash

    Very weak argument. It is Rivian's glass (and responsibility) because they designed the dimensions and shape, tested the samples, chose materials and thicknesses, and approved the batch. If Apple made a shitty iPhone you wouldn't blame Foxconn. Think of glass like tires. You can buy tires...

    Interested, PM sent
  6. California Selling 21" Road Wheels and Tires take offs from new R1T in SoCal

    I'd buy one for a spare in SoCal, if we can find two more we can move the whole set.
  7. Rivian R1T crash test video, photos, analysis

    It's not simply 2x the force, it depends on the mass of the two objects. If a wall of infinite mass hit a car going the same speed it would be infinitely more force than a car vs car (literally.) If a chunk of concrete the same mass as a car hit that car going the same speed, it would be the...
  8. Rivian R1T crash test video, photos, analysis

    That's not how physics works. A car hitting an immovable brick wall at any given speed has equal force acting on it as if it hit a car of equal mass traveling the opposite direction at equal speed.
