zedprime posted:This is true if you have like a Porsche and your car has one trunk but when your car has two trunks it saves syllables to say trunk and frunk instead of back trunk and front trunk. It still sounds dumb. That was the main reason I ultimately decided not to get a Porsche

A “learning algorithm” implies it would apply this to future situations, but why would you want to increase the force in future situations even if I DID want to increase the force this one time (say, to close on an overstuffed trunk)? Something doesn’t add up here, Wes! It’s almost like this is poorly thought out, but we all know that Teslas are literally the safest, best designed cars in the world so I know that’s not it.

I take it to mean the next time it encounters the same resistance it will power through it, regardless of if it was an overstuffed rucksack or a toddler’s fingers

Some Rube posted:Now the Cybertruck is supposed to apply more pressure every single time. According to Telsa there's an algorithm that wants to close the frunk Oooorrr... Maybe Tesla's software solution to the hardware problem of "The hood can cut off peoples fingers" is glitchy and unreliable as gently caress. Just throwing that out there.

Just saw my first cybertruck in the wild at a stop light, my reaction was stunned laughter. It's just so much bigger, so much more an immediate, obvious threat to other cars on the road; and so much loving uglier in person. It's astonishing.

MrQwerty posted:Just saw my first cybertruck in the wild at a stop light, my reaction was stunned laughter. I kinda had the opposite reaction. The first one I saw (which was a real surprise to me since I live in Bumfuck nowhere) I thought it looked kinda small. Maybe it's just because every other vehicle around here is a jacked up F-<something>50 bro-dozer but I thought it looked like the worlds ugliest mid-sized SUV. Maybe it was because I was looking at it from a distance because I didn't want to risk meeting the driver. Although, I agree with the "so much loving uglier in person" bit. Seeing one in person it was like someone took a shopping basket, stuck the handles up, draped a cloth over it and then turned into metal.

It's as big as a dualie F-350 with less visibility while taking up more physical space and weighing twice as much, and you can tell when it's in motion.

I saw it on the way to the liquor store and I was telling the clerk about how shocking it is, the guy behind me in line heard me and said, "I was doing pickups the other day and saw that piece of poo poo, thing is more ugly than you think it will be and as wide as my fuckin' garbage truck. Hopefully nobody else in town buys one." Then we all started laughing.

I understand what he was trying to achieve when he programmed this, but there has to be a better way to make the trunk close properly when it's a bit sticky Edit: also he's trying to sound smart by calling it a learning algorithm instead of just saying "if you open and close the front trunk a bunch of times in a row, it increases the motor force because the human is noticing a problem" Speleothing fucked around with this message at 02:39 on May 4, 2024 |

Question: is there an actual reason the frunk is powered? Is the lid just that heavy with the stainless steel and all?

I use it with her car because I'm worried I'll break something if I don't.

I think the part that shocked me the most about it was how big it was vs. my truck and just how much of the road and sheer physical space around the thing was completely invisible to it, completely reliant on cameras and sensors that aren't there, while being as obviously sharp and heavy as it is. Obviously sharp is not a thing you get from pictures but very much a thing you get from being up close to one in motion, as is the the way it carries its weight. I dislike it even more now that I've been in traffic with it.

Judging by youtube they have 2-3 million on backorder. It is going to take 200,000 years to fill that.
