    Questions on Software Updates

    Might add that unlike most software, once you install the upgrade and you think it's worse than what it replaced, you're screwed. There is no downgrading.

    Missing infrastructure?

    Why would you have a spot reserved for EV's withOUT charging? The lamp is not. If it were, pedestrians would trip over the cord! I gave the area a very good look. The next spot (further away) is also painted as EV only. I think they had plans to do it and will later. Asked my friends to...

    Missing infrastructure?

    Visiting friends in Maidenhead, UK, I spotted this parking space and found myself scratching my head! Asked a couple of locals and they had not noticed it. What's missing? :) Was it a plan that got canceled?

    My first accident

    This thread has been most interesting. But I would have changed one thing, diplomat33. The hand written note ... I am surprised you want the "public" seeing your surname. I would have also redacted the authors contact information. Just sayin' Had I authored said note and it was...

    The catastrophe of FSD and erosion of trust in Tesla

    Your wording is like the firmware. There is no such verb as backread. How does FSD get angry? Sounds like you're on the team developing it! :)

    The catastrophe of FSD and erosion of trust in Tesla

    This is NOT beta software. I am a full stack developer and if our company released rubbish this bad and being in beta for YEARS we'd go under. It's hardly Alpha. It is insulting to the software industry in general.

    It's VIN. The N is number. Talk about a redundant tautology!

    London to Manchester without stopping? [SR+]

    Indeed, why. 200 miles w/o a stop w or w/o a "R3d Bull" to help is asking for trouble. Why the "allergy" to stopping?

    Lamborghini and Lotus unveil last gasoline-only supercars

    Hang on sec. Who did Tesla outsource their body of the original Roadster to? Was that not Lotus? And their Elisa chassis? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus_Cars Why didn't they clue in then???

    Everyone should save money. You never know what the future has in store. My parents taught me ... "look after the pennies, the pounds will look after themselves".

    Moving to France

    I thought you were trying to persuade us that VINCI could use your "immatraculation" to pay tolls. Really off-topic ... yesterday had to have been my worst driving days of my life. Nice to Paris ... already tiring enough in one day (900kms) but rain was forecast for Paris. Never driven through...

    Because you were suggesting that tool booths here use ANPR.

    Moving to France

    Those tags are no different in concept than the VINCI ones. The only time ANPR comes in to effect is when you use T to pay for car parks. But that's autonomous.

    Moving to France

    As Vinci transponders are stuck on the windscreen / windshield of a car, what do foreign number plates have anything to do with it? ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras are not part and parcel of VINCI transponders that I have seen?

    Moving to France

    When I bought my car in France, they asked for my driving record from the USA. I got a NCB. I pay about 120E a month for a petrol car*. (Mini) And I only drive about 10000km a year here. Watts_up. not sure cool is the word. Challenging? I learned to drive in my native UK, then drove for...

    Elon Musk UK visit - potential factory?

    An aeroplane is a far more mission critical vehicle than a car yet it's all fly by wire. So there's no reason why cars cannot be "by wire" for three components. Steering, brakes and thrust.

    Elon Musk UK visit - potential factory?

    Only a matter of time in Musk world means 2040 at the earliest? Besides removing those components would never pass homologation.
