Sorry, I meant your competitor was likely racing a Model Y against your Hellcat :)

Likely you were racing in a Model Y if it was an SUV that said 'dual motor' on the back. The S and X don't have that labeling. So you were likely racing the 'slowest' of all Tesla models. If the 'dual motor' label had an underline below it, then you had a performance model Y, and possibly...

Thanks for sharing your photos - the Cybertruck looks perfect in your mountainous area!

It's Columbia Sportswear, an Oregon outdoor company. They are working on insulation material for space vehicles and astronauts: https://www.columbia.com/columbia-and-intuitive-machines-lunar-lander.html I live near their headquarters, and wear several clothing items from them (shirts...

When did you get it the first time?

Yes, I received on as well, a few days after my vaccination a couple weeks ago. I was almost going to reply as I had persistent shoulder pain in my deltoid several days after the shot. I thought I was getting SIRVA, but realized it was just strain from shoveling snow/chipping ice outside that...

2 door hatch?

Thanks for the info and the study. The study seems to conclude that for most immunogenicity: Moderna boost +prior AstraZeneca or Pfizer > Novavax boost + prior AstraZeneca > homologous Pfizer boost + prior Pizer > Pfizer + Novavax > homologous AstraZeneca (> symbol meaning non-inferiority to...

Very cool! But wow...that little kid in the 6th pic walking in front of the Cybertruck may be completely missed by the driver pulling out of the stall. Then again, that child could be missed by any truck with blockage of lower view.

Just about to get a new COVID vaccine (had COVID almost 3 months ago; think it may be time to boost as I'm around hundreds of people each day). Not sure which one to get: Pfizer, Moderna, or Novavax (I've had 4 Pfizer and 1 Moderna in the past). Any thoughts on this? This meta-analysis (1645...

Been a while since any comments in this epic thread (possibly the biggest thread on TMC?). So I tested positive for COVID (for the first time) on the second week of October this year. Let's just say my travel itinerary before this made it impossible NOT to get it. I've had 5 prior...

CDC recommends getting COVID-19 booster for the fall: https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2023/p0912-COVID-19-Vaccine.html Looks like both Pfizer and Moderna are available now. I'm curious which variants this new vaccine works against. I heard monovalent for Omicron and some of the newer...

It was zoonotic spread through the oompa loompas. Zoompa loompa.

Thanks for the article link and quote. I’m curious how pharmacists/primary care providers will ethically approach giving a second bivalvent booster to someone who is not over 65 nor immune-compromised. Can they refuse giving it, even if the patient wants it?

Cool! Curious...was your 6th dose your first updated (original+Omicron) booster? I just read on CDC’s website that if you’ve had the updated one you don’t need another booster currently.

I'm curious about this too. I do have wind noise, but I have a 2018 M3. I've seen some manufacturers who sell rubber lining that goes in the gaps between the roof glass, etc. Any input here is welcome. Also, to the OP - have you also soundproofed the frunk, and if so, with what and has it...

Did this trunk well application help with noise reduction, in your opinion?

This is awesome and greatly appreciated - someone please make a video of this entire process! @enemji - are there other noise suppression elements that you have added to your car, and do you recommend them?

Not sure what to make of this. Thoughts?

Great video. Anti-vaccers will love the first paper discussed (albeit n=1 and unique subject), but then watch the later paper discussion. It deflates the first paper’s assumptions fairly well:

Thank you for saying this. Been following this thread close to the original post, and it likely has saved my life and those around me with the excellent scientific studies and public health information posted over almost 3 years. Now it's just opinions vs opinions.

And just to add some 'context' to this article - the current subvariant stats in the US show notable increase the BQ.1 and BQ.1.1 subvariants: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#variant-proportions

Meant natural infection (as the video title says), not natural immunity. Curious on when boosters will be regularly recommended for immune-competent people. Every 4/5/6 months? Will we ever get to an annual shot (like the flu shot?).

Study comparing Pfizer, Moderna, Novavax, J&J, and natural immunity. Not bivalents though...

Yes, sorry about that. I too would like to know antibody and efficacy levels. A weak reference, to be sure. If you haven't already I recommend watching that Medcram video I just posted. It mentions that antibody levels may not be as critical as T cell activity. Very interesting video.

Another great Medcram video, this time on why some people never get symptomatic COVID-19: It gets into the weeds, but has some fascinating postulations.

Sorry no-one has replied yet. Here's a GoodRx webpage that has some nice info and good links: https://www.goodrx.com/conditions/covid-19/covid-19-boosters If safety is an issue, Moderna has had slightly more cardiovascular complications than Pfizer, especially in younger men. I'm curious to...

Thanks everyone for your poll participation and input. jjrandorin, you make a good argument for updating, and since my M3 is still under warranty, your info provided is convincing to do so.

Hi all, I’m still on v10 on my 2018 M3 AWD with the newer MCU computer (to allow FSD). Wondering if I should download the v11 or stick with v10. I know service upgrades require the latest software downloaded, but I’m holding out till/if that happens. I’ve tried FSD on a friend’s M3, and it...

Thanks, just signed up. Interestingly only the Pfizer one is available in my region right now. I talked with one of the pharmacists this weekend, and she said that there are still plenty of the original monovalent booster just sitting around. Would be a shame to waste it, but so be it. By...

Recent thoughts on Paxlovid rebound include antiviral resistance and potential new variants resulting. Dosage may be a factor. https://health.ucsd.edu/news/releases/Pages/2022-06-21-covid-19-rebound-after-taking-paxlovid-likely-due-to-insufficient-drug-exposure.aspx I wonder if the dosage...

Very nice summary and nice pic! My wife and I had an almost identical experience with our 70D Model S. Thanks for sharing.

Good info, thanks. Looking forward to seeing some new quadruple-vaxxed data in the future.

Obviously this person got sick and tired of v.11 UI and out of sheer frustration decided to just abandon their vehicle.

"...vaxxed and relaxed..."...I like that! Not sure if all the pharmaceuticals are available. Paxlovid is still trying to ramp up, and some supplements (i.e. N-acetyl cysteine) have been pulled by the FDA. But hopefully we are getting closer to the best therapeutic options.

Just curious as to where you have found evidence that Omicron 2 is more lethal. I’ve been searching and can’t find any info so far. Really appreciate your posts on this forum thread, by the way!

https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/pfizer-biontech-launch-trial-omicron-targeted-covid-vaccine-2022-01-25/ Assuming one was boosted already, would one 1) get a fourth booster, 2) get infected for natural immunity, or 3) signup for one of the Omicron-specific booster...

Really interesting talk on the effect of light and the immune system, with relevancy to COVID-19:

Some 4th dose info from Israel: https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israel-sticks-with-4th-vaccine-shot-sees-omicron-waning-week-2022-01-18/

Agreed. Some companies have extended the expiry date of their tests as well. Some examples: https://www.tchd.org/DocumentCenter/View/9226/Expiry-date-extension-regarding-BinaxNOW-COVID-19-Ag-Card-Home-Test?bidId=...

Our institution did this. We called it batch testing. Efficient and useful when rates were low. I agree with you on less viability when the case numbers get too high (like right now). Side-note: I’ve heard Omicron resistance and hospitalization data with Pfizer and J&J, but not Moderna...

Excellent points, thank you. I had the leads on each terminal; probably should have attached the negative to the car body, to allow uninterrupted charging of the 12V battery. And yes, had the battery replaced with a new one at the service center that same day.
