A positive pregnancy test.

I’m talking about the back doors. But yes. I incorrectly compared the front doors in the 3/Y with the back doors of the X.

Yeah the releases in the 3 and Y aren’t too bad. Most people use them by mistake once or twice (and get the warning about window trim).

The X however is unforgivable. You have to pop off the speaker grills to get to them and then the door also weighs a lot and has to be manually lifted upwards.

Oh also I got an oxygen concentrator from the wholesale Goodwill where everything is sold by the pound. Paid $13 for a $800 medical device.

I use it to get my fireplace going. Works like a charm.

A failed 3D print. Some Pokémon missing a leg.

One of my parks a rec discs had a scratch on the data layer (“hole”).

Sent a pic and info the Universal and they mailed us a replacement set.

Most studios have an email address for this kind of stuff. Hunt around.

More surface area per volume on a hobbit.

But the hair is more disheveled after first breakfast.

Tons of amazing original content, and very cheap.

He melts down to just his bill which floats next to the ring and mutters “you’re despicable.”

Also enjoying that we have a method for reducing concussions by half, but it isn’t mandatory in games why?

Heh, I guess I should have phrased that differently.

But yeah, it’s actually really courteous. Sometimes a little too much. It’ll move over to the left side of the lane if it sees a cyclist or pedestrian on the shoulder to the right. Unfortunately, it doesn’t understand when there’s a 3 ft concrete barrier between me and the pedestrian and will do it anyway. Makes some narrow bridge crossings a little scarier than necessary.

The first Model X has Autopilot 1 which was a system designed by Mobileye. Tesla’s relationship with Mobileye fell apart and they replaced it with an Nvidia based system in 2017(?). It was really really bad at the start as they were essentially starting from scratch. This system also used 8 cameras instead of the original 1.

Then Tesla released AP hardware 3 which was a custom-built silicon chip designed specifically for self-driving which also enabled proper navigation of surface streets in addition to the just highway lanekeeping offered in AP1. This broadened scope of actually dealing with turns and traffic from multiple angles is probably where the reputation of it being dangerous has come from.

My HW3 enabled Model 3 does make mistakes, though it’s rarely anything like hitting a pedestrian or running off the road. Most of my issues are with navigational errors. If the GPS gets messed up in the tunnel, it’ll suddenly decide to take an exit that it isn’t supposed to, or it’ll get in the left lane to pass someone 1/4 mile from a right-exit.

There was an extensive amount of refurbishment required to re-use the SRBs. Not to mention they had to be physically recovered, and salt water certainly made the process more complicated.

The shuttle itself needed each of its heat shield tiles replaced, which due to the shape of the shuttle were all unique.

The fuel tank was not reused.

The shuttle was meant to be a leap forward in rocket reusability, but it didn’t really pan out that way. There’s good reason the program was scrapped and not replaced with another space plane.

The Starship booster has the potential to launch multiple times per day. The only refurbishment period is how long it takes to refuel it.

I think that’s a Qualcomm proprietary thing that isn’t supported by standard USB downward facing ports.

$245/year assuming constant 200W load which is pretty reasonable for a small web server.

The trick is to have the server do other things like print, Plex, Piwigo, Samba, Shinobi, Frigate, Matrix, etc

It always bugged me how in Man of Steel, Superman has to deal with the moral quandary of breaking the bad guy’s neck at the cost of vaporizing a family.

Like they spent the previous 20 minutes punching each other through buildings. No way that was the first family they killed.

Yes. Radio waves can pierce opaque objects.

Ah. Well if your PC is static, a USB tuner isn’t too much. Plus then you have a built-in DVR.

I hear that. We have an attic yagi aimed directly at Seattle from 10 miles away, and we still get the occasional dropout even on our strongest signals.

Still when it works, it works really well. We watch Nature and Nova on Sundays, and the wildlife footage looks incredible.
