Finally joined the ranks of "Balkonkraftwerk" owners with my own 2 kWp solar setup: olex.biz/2026/04/balcon…. Feels good to produce my own power. In the future, upgrade with enough output to charge the EV for free as well.

@wholemars On "hacked" cars it ran quite nicely in a few European countries. But legally, you're right - v12 wasn't properly trained on non-US data, and tried to do all sorts of US-only things, like turning right on red, which is _very_ illegal here.

International support was added in 13 and 14. This means version 12, the latest hardware 3 version cant run internationally although it can run in some countries like the US and Mexico Once V14 lite is released this summer, HW3 cars internationally will potentially be able to run FSD

@KilowattStation @brandenflasch The "Charging information" sign is also all over the place - random numbers, some info left and some right, all mixed up. I'd go as far as to say the sign layouts are AI-generated and not reviewed by anyone with some design sense.

@brandenflasch What the heck. That somehow makes it worse?

Leave it to Francis Energy to not even use the actual connectors on their signs.

@stefan_3d @eivissacopter So ist es, eigene 16A Sicherung nur für die eine Dose, und die Zuleitung vom Verteilerkasten sind auch nur wenige Meter. Ich habe den UMC da auf 12A eingestellt, alle Stecker kalt, soweit keine Anzeichen für irgendwelche Probleme.

@eivissacopter @stefan_3d Habe im neuen Haus einen Trocknerauslass durch die Wand aus dem Keller vorgefunden, genau wo das Auto davor steht. Ladeziegel in den Keller, Stecker in die extra für den ehemaligen Trockner gesicherte Steckdose, Kabel durch den Auslass raus, Verkleidung drauf - top!

@stefan_3d Same here. Ca. 30tkm im Jahr, seit sieben Jahren. Zuhause ausschließlich mit dem UMC Notlader einphasig mit reduzierten 10A geladen, also ~2kW Schuko. Leicht erhöhte Ladeverluste, wegen weniger Standby. Aus VDE-Sicht "suboptimal", aber im Alltag top! Wallbox ist ein Luxus!

@ReolinkTech Amazing cameras and great app! Any chance of looking into landscape orientation on the iPad though? It works in general, but a lot of the app is broken - either forced into windowed mode or partially off-screen. Using iPadOS 26 on an 11“ iPad Pro M4.

@CNC_Kitchen Looks great! This is one thing that AI-assisted coding really allows: custom software for singular users, that would never have existed otherwise. It probably isn't "production grade" for public use straight from the LLM, but in many cases it never needs to be.

Hate me for this, but vibe coding is one of the most powerful new tools for every engineer. Over the weekend, I built a fully fledged web UI for my tensile test machine that not only streamlines my workflow but also makes the whole process so much more reliable and enjoyable!

@NotATeslaApp I think I found another undocumented change in the Christmas software: the weather radar map now automatically orients to north-up when opened. It used to remain in the nav orientation before (so stayed forward-up when so selected, and was somewhat confusing).

@CNC_Kitchen @Telekom_hilft Ich habe mich nach etwas Recherche beim neuen Haus für @congstar entschieden, gegen @Starlink, als Zwischenlösung bis Glasfaser liegt. Mal schauen ob ich das revidieren muss, wenn auch so was kommt 🤔

Liebe @Telekom_hilft, ich wollte zu euch wechseln, hatte NULL Erwartungen und wurde trotzdem enttäuscht. Zwei Mal wurde der Wechseltermin in letzter Sekunde verschoben, dann der Anschluss abgestellt. Heute der Hammer: „Bei Ihnen gehen maximal 6 Mbit.“250 Mbit waren versprochen🤡

@DJSnM Valiant Air was such a surprise when I visited the Space Coast last year. Incredible place.

I saw this in person tonight at the Valiant Air Command Warbird Museum, took me a long time to figure out what it was even though I'd covered it in a video, but, it was very dark and I could only see a small part with my phone flashlight. I think I have to go back tomorrow in daylight.

Looking forward to using the advent calendar again in 2025! Printed flawlessly last year on my #RockSolidP1S. @BambulabGlobal

@eivissacopter @BlogTeslaFr Back in early EU M3P times (2019) it was rather random what it said in the CoC. Some cars had all wheel sizes (18-20"), and some only had 20" in there, with no visible logic to it.

@BlogTeslaFr Yes, but not the first time this happened. Especially with the MYP. This opens to door to add it alter to the COC or makes the path for a special certification easier at least.

#ModelY #Opal Performance wheel size discrepancy: ▶️COC: 2#5/35/R21 - No other wheel sizes allowed! ▶️MYP Type Approval - 4: All Model Y wheel sizes 19-21" allowed! tff-forum.de/t/wiki-model-3…

@BambulabGlobal New house needs a new network cabinet. I was thinking of a custom setup, with 10“ rails and custom holders for desktop-format router hardware, PSUs and other pieces. Would be a nice challenge to print in as few pieces as possible, and use the H2S build volume well!

SCD40/SCD41 CO2 sensor with an ESP32-C3-SuperMini is awesome! Really compact combo for a room sensor for smart home. I made an enclosure for it, take a look and print one for yourself: #profileId-1616546" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">makerworld.com/en/models/1540… #3dprint #esphome #esp32

@CanuckCreator @joebarnard Every tool is a hammer. Except the screwdriver, that's a chisel.

@joebarnard look at this dood, thinking its a wrench its obviously a c-clamp

Mitutoyo makes some AWESOME wrenches!

@BambulabGlobal Will the AMS 2 Pro work in a daisy chain with an "old" AMS v1 on a P1S? And will the drying functionality work in a setup like that? (I know I will need the external power brick, and the April firmware update for drying)

@johnkrausphotos I took this from the Max Brewer Memorial Bridge during that launch. The sunrise backlight was something else.

Using common features I put a few of the debris videos together to extend the timeline

@joebarnard Gonna admit though, couldn't plan this shot better even if one tried. Mass of debris glowing and backlit by the setting sun against clear and slowly darkening evening sky.... very pretty.

Space confetti :(
