Why is there so much negativity with whining?
It's not like this group didn't whine a price guarantee into existence
It's not like the current president didn't whine himself into that position
Whining is winning.
Except Car Play Whines. That's just a waste of a perfectly good whine.
I'm not understanding how it they're each 6-direction haptic wheels

It's still not really to market.
It's a stop sale until they narrow the seats in the back. Apparently they broke the rules by making them comfortable for Americans. Oops.
Lately I've been trying to charge at work.
This is a bit of a challenge as I don't want to charge when I'm well above 60% and I don't want to have it get below 30% or so.
So I typically plug in for a few hours or so 2-3 times a week.
I do charge at home if I'm going to go on a road trip...
With a little bit of nudging I got a better answer from ChatGPT o4-mini-high
"The XMM2 is Rivian’s dedicated infotainment system-on-chip in the Gen 2 R1 vehicles. On Gen 1, Rivian split the cabin’s processing across three separate ECUs (including a Mobileye EyeQ4), which led to occasional UI...
In this case I don't think it hallucinated. It simply didn't know the difference between the autonomy computer and the infotainment computer. There just isn't a whole lot of information about the infotainment computer in a Rivian.
What I found says it uses the XMM2, but what in the world is an...
The Gen 1 Rivian uses the XMM1 infotainment chipset, and the Gen 2 uses the XMM2 Infotainment chipset.
The infotainment chipset it kept separate from the autonomy to avoid issues where the infotainment glitches and reboots...
I don't think Rivian uses the AI Compute for the Infotainment computer.
Tesla uses an entirely separate computer for the infotainment than the HW4 (or wherever they're at) computer that does the AP/FSD. I imagine Rivian does the same.
I'm not saying they can't buy it, but just if I was King I'd use my power for good. :-)
On a more serious note I think having solid safety standards would eliminate much of what I despise about the CyberTruck.
I think they'll fix a lot of issues with a revamp.
I think this was real and due to the frustration with service centers.
Vandalizing Telsa's I haven't heard much about recently. The whole thing was an exercise in stupidity. Of people attacking themselves. Like how does a Subaru driver even enter into that headspace?
The exception being a...
I thought about getting a "Friends don't let friends buy an MB" bumper sticker to put on my Sprinter Van.
What's funny is its been more reliable than my Rivian, but my god is the maintenance cost insane. You basically have to do it all yourself or you get gouged. Maybe its a secret way to...
I'd pay a non-trivial amount for Level 3 at Highway speeds.
I would because 2-4 times a month I drive 440 miles round trip to my Coast Home. Essentially I get this time back so that's worth something to me. Of course ideally it would be L4 the entire way so I could sleep, but I don't see...
