    Touch screen control for wipers is dangerous

    Don’t get me wrong, I agree it’s more distracting to talk on phone or to passengers while driving than not. I just think not being able to see while driving is even more dangerous. I can also choose to stop talking and do so (and not to jinx it, but my perfect driving record while driving 2-3x...

    Touch screen control for wipers is dangerous

    Yup, I agree with all of this. I know the Air Force did some studies on this and concluded individual, physical buttons are the best. That being said, most of us are not driving cars upside down while being shot at, going 900mph, so take it for what it’s worth. I’ve always thought the buttons...

    *vison, not bison... though bison could cause a problem too

    Touch screen control for wipers is dangerous

    I have to disagree - not being able to see is more dangerous than most things while driving, and wipers allow you to see. They also allow the FSD cameras to see, so the idea that in the future driver seats will face backwards, people will nap or work on a laptop, etc., is all predicated on...

    That’s not how rain works.

    Touch screen control for wipers is dangerous

    Driving through 30 minutes of rain necessitates doing the action you mentioned about 40 times. That adds up to a lot of time messing with the screen. To touch the screen 40 times for any other control would take many hours of driving for audio, days of driving for temp, or months of driving for...

    Touch screen control for wipers is dangerous

    I’m guessing you’re new to driving, or at least driving in the rain. Like any kind of driving, there’s an orientation period. If you live someplace where you need to use the wipers more than 1x per month, wiper control on the screen sucks.

    Supercharger "pirate adapters"?

    VHS was not a standard of any sort. It won over Beta because it sold better, due to the porn industry adopting it. In your analogy, Tesla is more like VHS since it is selling far better. Also, Tesla didn’t choose to not use a standard - they chose to create one. There was no standard at the...

    Supercharger "pirate adapters"?

    Last time I checked 167 > 120. Also, you found “no evidence at all to support the idea their (Electify America) future building is going at a faster pace as you suggested....” You realized that you just self pwned, right? You have no evidence at all to support the idea that EA will surpass Tesla...

    Sentry Mode to the rescue!

    That has to be one of the most careless door openings ever. Double lines give you more room, neither car appears close to the line... it’s so negligent it’s almost like you had to try to do it...

    Genius level IQ people. Explain what Tesla is doing!?!

    People, regardless of IQ, make most of their decisions, no matter how important, from an emotional and irrational standpoint. This has been scientificslly proven which is why commercials appeal to your emotions and not your intelligence and why politics go the way they do. From an anecdotal...

    What would “normal” tire pressure be

    I don’t think it has anything to do with weights - the tires on my road bike are 125psi recommended and it weights 12lbs. It all depends on how their made and what they’re made for. I think it’s more if they’re low rolling resistance tires, they’re designed for higher pressures. My wife’s 2010...

    Podcast resume using TuneIn?

    Okay, I think I finally figured it out. I always just got out of the car and left the podcast running, assuming that when the car powered down it would stop the podcast and start it up again when I got back in, but it almost never does. Instead, if I pause the podcast when I’m getting out of...

    High Speed Scrubbing?

    anyone know how to do high-speed scrubbing in the Model 3? The podcast player starts podcasts from the beginning anytime I get out of and back into my car - super annoying and it’s own issue which I see others have mentioned here - but when I try to get back to where I left off, I have to use...

    Podcast resume using TuneIn?

    Had my 3 less than a week and already gave up and went back to the phone :(

    Fluid leaking from under car

    Don’t forget the AC compressor is used to cool the battery as well. If it’s hot out, it’ll use the AC without the Air Con actually being on and will make plenty of condensation from that. Also might see condensation while supercharging even if cool outside, due to removing heat in battery from...
