Annual pass sharing is widespread in the immigrant community my family is a part of. I’ve half jokingly advised them to pull the race card if they ever get caught. “How dare you imply we all look the same?”

I don't understand why someone would FIRE and not already have spent years lining up all the things they will do. And the "won't you be so bored?" people. No, I'm not bored. You might be because you need someone els

Hey man I don't want to argue anymore. I bought a cybertruck, not a Musk. Musk clearly has some issues and I wish he'd shut the hell up, but in my opinion there's so much to do and be happy about in life that it's a wast

Ah well. I just do some minor stuff for fun so I’m not too well versed in what real off-roading/hauling is. It’s good enough for my needs anyway. But thank you for the kind words. I do enjoy it a lot!

Ah. Now I see why you’re so against it. My condolences. I did get my share of similarly deranged people flipping me off, until I moved out of the Seattle area. Now things are better :)

None of the subjective things you said has any bearing on my lived experience of the past two years I’ve owned it. It off roads well. Holds lots of stuff. Backed up my whole house when we had a power outage. Safest truck ever tested. Drives

They’re awesome, why wouldn’t I?

I want this as well. Hopefully my Cybertruck will get unsupervised driving someday, but until then, it's the closest thing to the dream of electric off-roading, self-driving vehicle with huge cargo capacity. I've already stopped d

I have no skin in the game for either side of this, but I looked pretty hard at his comment history and couldn't find anything even remotely sounding like that. All he does is express gratitude for the projects they collaborated with.

I attempted to listen and couldn't get over the "Wolp" pronunciation of warp.

To me, “work 40+ years and retire when you’re already physically and mentally slow” is the real nonsense. A sabbatical thrown in here and there doesn’t make up for it. I’m grateful that I live somewhere with high enough paying jobs that I

Yeah it’s not ideal. The cars were good enough to buy given their capabilities at purchase time, no need for them to tell lies (or charitably, overly wishful thinking) to sell more cars.

Is this complaint just for the sake of complaining? You print out the pieces, they connect various toys together. The units could be light-years for all it matters.

I had a job, was relatively happy. Then I had kids, less happy due to severe lack of time. Now, have no job and still have my kids. Happiest I’ve ever been.

Anyone who has owned both HW3 and HW4 would know this. There’s a big difference between my HW3 Y and HW4 truck. The truck can drive itself almost flawlessly from start to finish and feels natural. The Y drives like a robot and occasionally

It’s the weather, right? Not a big fan of west coast politics compared to back home but I’ll tolerate it in exchange for the sun :)

All of the poster’s previous attempts had been flagged to death but this one apparently aligns better with the prevailing sentiment.

That’s a very interesting way to look at it! But my reasoning for continuing to do what I do is that FSD is bad at thin gates and much better at avoiding pedestrians. So it’s not an all or nothing thing for me.

by qwerpy 6mo ago
My gated community has a gate similar to a railroad gate. My FSD 12 HW3 model Y cannot be trusted at it. My FSD 14 HW4 Cybertruck does fine except if another car is in front of me. Then it tries to tailgate the car in. Strangely, the Y has

I built a new PC at around the same time that notepad++ was exploited so I steered clear of it for a bit. And VSCode was becoming too clunky to use as a general purpose text editor. So I tried the new notepad. The new version is also clunky

Thanks for the link, yeah I'm pretty much entirely on Steam. I'll play Diablo 4 one of these years, and that appears to be running fine. Sometimes I'll try out a game on my steam deck for fun and so far everything I run has w

Thank you for the recommendations! I'll check out OnShape. Between that and FreeCad (which recently got a usability update) I can probably kick AutoCad/Fusion360 to the curb. Perhaps Linux can handle all of my computing needs. &qu

by qwerpy 6mo ago
It's probably my last Windows. It's getting harder to undo the shenanigans each time they push out another update. The moment I can't undo it, I'll move to Linux. I'll learn FreeCad and use Onenote in a browser. I h

For me the apps that don’t exist on Linux are Fusion360 (3d printing modeling) and OneNote (shared notebook with my non-technical wife that syncs to mobile). I also have zero tolerance for needing to tweak settings to make a game work on Li

Strange that when Democrats mess things up “they didn’t do that” or “that’s a you problem” but when the other side does something you’re very quick to assign specific blame. One-sided thinking like this is why no one can find common ground

Assuming that people vote a certain way out of spite is narrow-minded. Talk to people outside of your bubble and try to understand them instead of reducing them down to caricatures. I don’t judge people on the left the way that I get judged

Unironically yes. I lived in the Seattle area and witnessed firsthand the effects of state/county/city Democrat rule. Gifted programs cancelled, streets full of homeless and drug addicts. Hateful people yelling at and flipping me

I was able to retire in my early 40s because Oracle paid early OCI engineers very well, in order to poach them from FAANGs. I wouldn’t recommend it now but “apply to Oracle for a job” did work out for some of us :)

Counterpoint, work for companies that pay a lot regardless of good/evil. I worked for an evil company and got paid an insane amount. Got laid off. Am now happily retired in my early 40s.
