I don’t even see what point you’re trying to make. All I said in my first comment is that having the car drive itself from the factory to your house saves Tesla the hassle of delivering it to you, and it will put unnecessary miles and wear & tear on the car before you even get to drive it.

That was my first comment right? Now look at your reply to that. So I explained that a car can be delivered to your house on a flatbed truck where it won’t put on said unnecessary miles and wear & tear. No imaginary special concierge needed to pick you up and take you to a dealership to get your car. Do you agree? If yes, then I think the conversation has reached a conclusion.

I’ve never heard of this.

Now you have. You can even get a used car delivered to your house and have your old car taken away at the same time if you are trading it in.

Yes, that was my point

Ok? So what was the point of your first comment? Anyway, I think this conversation is going around in circles, and it seems like it was just because you weren’t aware a car can be delivered straight to your house, instead of having it drive by itself and rack up miles and wear and tear before you even get to ride in it.

You can absolutely get a new car delivered to your house even if you buy from a dealership. Either way, the topic of discussion in this thread is having the car drive itself to your house, not to the dealership for you to pick it up.

By being delivered on a truck? Not sure if this is a regional thing if you’re not in the US, but it’s not unusual to get a car delivered to your house on a flatbed truck or semi in the US. How do you think cars get transported around the country?

No. What I’m saying is you can have the car delivered to you without it racking up miles by carrying it on a semi. Having it drive itself to you starts depreciation before you even get to ride in it, not to mention the warranty limits based on mileage. What you said in your original comment about expecting to be picked up so you can drive it back home is ridiculous, that’s why I responded with an equally ridiculous scenario.

Have you never had something delivered to you before? Does the amazon driver pick you up and take you to the warehouse so you can personally pick up your package?

Aka they save on delivery costs and your new car racks up miles on your own dime before you even get to drive it.

Don’t get high on your supply I guess. Just like Zoom forcing RTO.

I’ve been distro hopping for 15+ years but have settled with Mint for the last few, because I just want something that works. I’m too busy nowadays to bother with maintaining a distro, so I just want something that works out of the box and is easy to maintain. The laptop I use it on is connected to the TV as I use it to watch movies.

Right, but this is Youtube Music though.

I can play Cannibal Corpse without an account on a browser. What the hell are you listening to? lol

Ok now I’m curious about the alien photo they’re talking about in the comments.

If drivers opt-in to it, they should make it SOP to inform the rider at the beginning of the ride that they are being recorded.

I don’t think you’ll be able to find a commercial VPN service using residential IPs, let alone a trustworthy one.

For me, if I’m gonna point it to Mullvad’s DNS servers anyway, then I might as well just use it directly. Having a profile also ensures all your traffic goes through there, instead of just browser traffic (if via extension).

They’re partnering with GL.Inet for this new version. I own the GL.Inet Shadow mini travel router and I just bought a Flint v1 router that’s arriving tomorrow to replace my home router. I was thinking of getting v2 but the earlier version’s specs are more than enough for my use-case. Just based on my Shadow mini router, GL.Inet is pretty solid. Their routers ship with openwrt pre-installed and the UI already has easy setup options for the popular vpn brands. That’s a hefty price tag though ($250). The latest GL.Inet flagship router is on sale for $127 right now.

Threat Model is always the answer to these kinds of posts. Come up with your own theat model to figure out your risk tolerance. Not doing that will just keep moving the goal posts.
