infernal machines posted:also This and brushes post helped reinforce for me how sensors work and what resolution means in their context . That info, combined with this post, highlights that these cars are basically mostly blinded by cataract dogs running at 70mph with the cognitive ability of o new born baby. They don't know poo poo. They can't see poo poo.

FRECKLES would be a great tesla vanity plate. No bazinga would ever be honest with themselves enough about the car (which is a great car btw, love the car) or the situation they bought into to use it

Maybe google cars are smarter but teslas are more fragile and stupid than a baby that just learned to crawl. They will run into barriers and cut them selves in half, they will get stuck inside buildings, they will randomly for no reason at all catch on fire. If there is a way to kill or hurt them selves they will find it. And people drop 50k or more on these idiots.

According to this post, AP defaults to 45mph when it doesn't know what the speed limit is. People on twitter are speculating that explains the high speed crash that killed a pedestrian in SF the other day, but you'd think SF of all places would be 100% in Tesla's database of speeds. Is that 45mph thing correct?

I would say I'm surprised by that, but then again Waze for the longest time would try to make me turn left onto some of the worst streets in LA, at right hour, when the perpendicular traffic didn't have a light or a stop sign. I think there's some option to fix that now, but I just stopped using it for the crazier parts of LA.

HAIL eSATA-n posted:15 variations of janky, broken usb plugs isn't a standard Well yes, and the EU went to the makers and went "stop this nonsense, PICK A STANDARD", and thus micro USB became the norm! Apple, having none of that, said that supplying the cable meant compliance. Given they were the only one that actually pulled that stunt, the EU shrugged and moved on. Had the other makers said that in addition to Apple, I think we'd be looking at Apple on micro USB as well. Now it's switching to USB-C as a whole, which is nicer because it's definitely more robust. Tesla is trying to be Apple here. They want their fancy pants plug that no other car can use, because A. it means their public charging stations are Tesla only, and B. forces you to stick to the Tesla ecosystem.

Sagebrush posted:a poo poo standard is still better than 15 incompatible marginally less poo poo variants It's this. As I said, USB-C is taking over now, which offers a much nicer USB3.0+ connector than what micro USB's was going to (and USB-B). Honestly mini-USB should have won (slightly more robust), but that's moot now. Looping back into Tesla, unlike Apple, Tesla lacks the clout that Apple had when EU forced the companies to adopt a standard, so Tesla has to play nice. e: funny enough, Tesla likes to tailor its cars for USDM and EUDM by varying the belt buckle release of all things. It's red because EU standards (I remember hearing this, open to correction here), and car companies are all "well, let's just make it standard across the board. Simplifies the supply chain." or why we all got micro USB, why offer two sets of connectors when you can make it universal between US and EU markets. Yeah some of the guts are different, but instead of needing two supply lines for the charging port, you have one. The EU, as a whole, has enough clout behind it to make international market impacts like that. iospace fucked around with this message at 20:23 on Jul 24, 2019 |

"Service and Other gross margin in Q2 improved to negative 23% due to a lower impact of one-time items as well as reduced losses in the service business. Most importantly, our total service-related cost continues to decline compared to a year ago, in spite of almost doubling the size of our customer vehicle fleet." Now pretend here I posted screencaps of people @ing Musk on twitter saying no one will answer the phone or call them back at the service center.
