It was an RV site and had 30 and 50-amp power. Mobile connector charged, but in the hottest part of the day it kicked down to 16 amps instead of 32. 

Last weekend my wife and I drove from Las Vegas (115°) to Valley of Fire (119°), to Zion National Park (110°) in our 2023 Tesla Model Y Performance. While we had the AC blasting the whole time, our need to stop and charge each direction didn’t really change, and we were able to Charge at the campsite. In the V8 Jeep

This man was a legend, but his business card was on a whole ‘nother level

The current models are far better than the original was. They’ve worked out a lot of those issues and substantially improved things.

Nope. The current Model 3 and Y performance models have more powerful motors, different lower and stiffer suspension, thicker roll bars, better cooling, and larger and stronger brakes. It’s not just “software”.

All cars are saddled by the 7% interest rate, data collection, and arguably the tech obsolescence.

I also like the idea of being in a stunning environment, and the higher resolution. The XReal’s look like they’re just AR glasses that provide subtitles, not VR. 

The only reason I would want one of these is the ability to watch a movie on a 100' screen while flying coach. If they make a cheaper version that just does that, I’m in.

People in Encore, Treasure Island, and Trump tower can definitely see it blaring into their rooms, not to mention those staying in the Conrad and Crockford towers attached to it.

I meant in response to the blinding light blasting into nearby hotel rooms. The Sphere is much more impressive, technically advanced, and less eye searing. The Resorts World screen is hideous, and an eyesore, even by Vegas standards. (I’m a resident of Henderson, and can see this thing from the park near my house 12.5

This is nothing compared to Resorts World’s giant building sized screen.

This is CGI, but it gives you an idea of what it will look like. I’m actually going to a show called “Postcards from Earth” in October.

They have an animation where is looks like the sphere disappears and you can see the interior. Pretty amazing, and you can see this from the Macdonald Highlands (or any of the inner mountains) in Henderson. 

And unfortunately, even combined, all the rich politicians and corporate shills would only feed a small city for a few weeks. So, eating the rich, while a solid short term plan, isn’t going to help us get through the coming crisis. 

The comment about changing weather patterns I think misses the reality of what you can expect, and the challenges of growing crops.

Those could be lemons, or something similar.

Great, now we look like Venus. 

Due to causality, for all intents and purposes, there is no difference between it happening 600 years ago and it happening as we see it. Everything we see is happening as we see it... again, as far as relativity, causality and thus, we are concerned.

No. Sort of - Nothing in the universe travels faster than light, which is information. That said, we may detect that it’s occurred a few hours before we can see it, but that’s due to neutrinos, which also travel at C, but are able to pass through the star (and everything else) before the shockwave.

What do I do now that I have a Tesla? I don’t even have a push button start, but I need this in my life.
