That’s honestly one of the most adorable things I have ever seen.

Try your local middle schools and libraries. Most have 3D printers these days and are likely to be a good continuous source of failed prints.

Actually I gave them two ways to eliminate the parasitic drain: replace with a working spy unit or disconnect the non working spy unit (the status quo would leave them with continuously dying batteries).

Plus, let’s be real: the chances that anyone cares about any one person’s location is slim to none (barring political figures, billionaires, and celebrities). If you are worried about the mass collection of people’s locations, dropping one person off the Subaru map will have zero impact. Taking away a Subaru data point does not do anything about cell phone GPS, cell tower triangulation, EZ-Pass tracking, traffic cameras, or licence plate tracking (and those are just the car based tracking systems off the top of my head).

Well sure…they won’t replace it unless you want them to…it’s your car. But what I mean to say is that they can replace it under warranty now and if you don’t replace it you will keep losing batteries. That’s what happened with my 2018 Outback (I went through a battery every 3-6 months for 3 years).

They will now replace the Starlink module free of charge under a recall. Your battery will keep dying unless you either replace the module or remove the fuse that activated the thing.

You may have read that backwards. I’m on Stratera and about the other ADHD medications which are all versions of stimulants.

Stratera, also known as Atomoxetine, is a norepinephrine re-uptake inhibitor. What does that mean? Ever have that clarity of mind and focus (and calm) when there is a crisis? That’s norepinephrine. It seems ADHD brains tend to absorb it quickly so while most people can stay calm and focused normally, it takes a huge crisis (and huge release of norepinephrine) for ADHDers to have that feeling. If we slow down the re-uptake then it helps us feel calm and focused.

Dosage was a bitch for a bit though: they started me on the “normal” adult dose (40mg), which left me feeling like an emotionless robot and very productive. The typical advice is to go up in dose but I asked to go down to a child’s dose (10mg) which has me feeling productive, calm, and frankly great. I’m still me now, but things that would normally set me off just don’t anymore. I can provide compassion and be the voice of reason, or be the firm without being mean.

Drop caffeine. Seriously, that took me from reacting like the hulk to just getting flushed in the face (in most cases…I still flew off the handle sometimes, but like less than 20% compared to before). Next step that helped then was getting a non stimulant medication for ADHD, but that may not be needed for you.

It surprises me that Nintendo would think enough people would pay for this, but considering the tech in it, I doubt it could sell for cheaper at a profit. What people don’t realize is that there is a full on radar based health monitoring system in there that drives the price up. I expect this is a test bed for a future product that someone is trying to make back the R&D money.

Tarken would have hated that. Remember the fact that the storm troopers missed so much is BECAUSE TARKEN ORDERED THE STORM TROOPERS TO MISS TO LET THE HEROS GET AWAY SO TARKIN COULD FIND THE LOCATION OF THE REBEL BASE! Leia even says so.

Yes thank you! Edited my comment to correct it.

This sort of thing is already being done with many commercial devices. See www.powercastco.com for one of the companies.

I manage a team of 5 people. I told them all not to come in so they could go see the eclipse. I told them not to take vacation and just bill it as normal hours. Three listened to me. One took a half day. One just went and worked…

Ok, so, everyone kept saying “don’t stare at the sun without your NASA approved glasses,” so I used my NASA approved glasses…you know what they should have said? “Remember to wear sunscreen on your face when you stare at the sun using NASA approved glasses”… My face hurts…

Sooo I don’t get your point. They do the same thing as Tesla does standard too?

Those are brands, not specific cars, and to my knowledge BMW is the only car that offers a level 3 option. Tesla has level 2 as standard (known as autopilot).

This is the key. I’ve actually been saved a few times now by FSD catching something I didn’t see, like some deer. I’m collecting videos of the things it does that impress me to share when my trial is over.

Sorry, I’m not aware, what car comes standard with that?

Sorry, I know this is controversial and I’ll probably get down voted to hell, but I love my model Y Tesla and I think the full self driving is amazing (I didn’t pay for it, there’s a free trial this month). Musk is an idiot and an asshole but there’s a lot more people working at Tesla that made some amazing vehicles.
