    Comprehensive USB Bug List

    AND: It includes TIDAL!!!!!!! I was under impression that Tidal and Spotify would only ever be available on MCU2 cars... but here it is! Ironically, I was going to get an MCU2 installed last month... first, because my 2012 S was occasionally having problems waking up (NOT fixed by EMMC...

    Comprehensive USB Bug List

    I have a Model 3, for which I am on 2022 software releases and album art has been restored. I also have a 2012 S Performance - MCU1, which recently installed 2021.24.28 and still does not have album art for USB. My S was in storage for most of the last year, so I sort of expected this to be...

    Need help with CA NEM 2.0.

    I’m sorry, but you lost me…. My CCA doesn’t do distribution. SCE does. So CCA does net metering for supply, not distribution… right? How is CCA even involved in distribution charges? Did you mean Supply in first sentence?

    Need help with CA NEM 2.0.

    WAIT! Just reading more material, and trying to foot it to this discussion. I cannot. Isn't this it? Excluding MDC, PCIA, and FSS, which are less material.... Distribution: * For every imported kWh offset by a kWh generated into the grid: you pay NBCs (~5 cents) * For every imported kWh NOT...

    Need help with CA NEM 2.0.

    Thanks to all for input. My CCA (Santa Barbara Clean Energy) could not explain the distribution charges to my satisfaction, so this helps a lot. Today, without Net Metering, I am paying SCE up to 26 cents per kWh distribution charges for the energy I import from the grid. As I read the above...

    Need help with CA NEM 2.0.

    I’m very conversant with net metering in many states but new to CA and want to confirm my understanding of SCE distribution charges before I sign contract for install. If you have a 2.0 system and understand how all the charges work, please Dm (start conversation). Thx.

    The unofficial "when do I get my FSD beta update" FAQ

    Don’t sweat it. It ain’t that great.

    The unofficial "when do I get my FSD beta update" FAQ

    Yah me too. Not an exclusive club anymore. First tries unimpressive. Will try more before judging.

    USB Music - cover art

    Hmm seems like a lot of trouble. Couldn’t you just select whatever song is at top of list then press forward to next random track? Or do you just love the first few bars of aaaaaa by aaaaa?

    A Guinness world record for how many times braking can be misspelled in one post.

    The unofficial "when do I get my FSD beta update" FAQ

    Sorry about naive "help me" question, but have not been tracking this and by now there are SO MANY threads and posts. I recall in early days of FSD Beta, there was conjecture that early (i.e. 2018) Model 3 cars might not get FSD without a camera upgrade. I did get a computer upgrade to my car...

    "Proactive" 12v battery replacement - good idea or overkill?

    FWIW, that’s one tech with his small sample. That tech may also be new. Earlier versions of the firmware did not even have a warning message so 12v failure em was ALWAYS unannounced. Now there are warnings, but it is my impression anecdotally through forum that they have a short leash (do it...

    "Proactive" 12v battery replacement - good idea or overkill?

    I just don’t get it. 12v battery is a consumable on every car I’ve ever owned. I can’t tell you how many ICE cars I’ve owned have had batteries crap out unannounced. Why would we expect Tesla to upgrade? I know that they often replace as warranty or goodwill… but to me that is above and beyond.
