Tim Apple: “Today, we’re excited to announce ‘Kumbaya Messaging’™️ for iOS, iPadOS, WatchOS, and MacOS! Kumbaya Messaging™️ brings not only Apple Ecosystem™️enjoyers closer together through rich, more connected communications, but will allow all your friends and family who are still using Android to be able to be able to enjoy all of your shitposting gifs, memeojis, and Live Photo™️ snapshots of your take-out pho, including the hilariously embarrassing audio you always forget about.

Yep.

Well it would have said “Romani ite domum” if I didn’t typo that.

At least I didn’t write it as “Romanes eunt domus” like some weirdo.

(It’s a Monty Python reference)

Romani ite domum!

At a point where a drive unit has to be rebuilt, it’s going to be hundreds of thousands more miles than an ICE would have on it when it requires a rebuild, and engine rebuild means “lifetime” is over. It’s effectively a new engine after that.

It isn’t an interval, though, it is lifetime. I’m apparently continually failing to make that point.

120k is only the warranty period on the drivetrain/battery, and I’m using it as an example, for parts that have zero maintenance, and are guaranteed for an amount of miles most people never even put on an ICE vehicle that otherwise requires oil changes every 3k-5k miles.

put back the old fluid

Irrelevant. Even being in the position of having a drive unit serviced at all is outside the norm or intent for lifetime of the vehicle.

Dude, this is utterly ridiculous nonsense and no one should be having their Tesla motor drive units cracked open to change lubricants. Not only does it void the 120k mile warranty, but it proves you have no experience with them.

You may as well be telling me to have my rear diff rebuilt on an MX-5 after 10,000 miles.

CCP supporters = wumao

The motors are sealed and will last long beyond drivetrain warranty periods (which is 8 years, 120k miles on Model 3/Y). Battery packs do have a coolant that is intended to last the life of the vehicle, though I’ve heard of it being drained/replaced after maintenance where someone had failed valves in the coolant system.

ICE vehicles break down far faster, requiring loads more maintenance and parts replacement over their lives, even when properly maintained. More moving parts, more friction, more points of failure.

Since I once again have to get serious after a shitpost, Most EVs definitely don’t, because most on the road are Teslas, and there is no oil to change in their regular service.

Hold it, hold it… so vampires’ reflections don’t appear in mirrors, but most phone cameras don’t use mirrors, just like ‘mirrorless’ (non-DSLR) cameras, the light goes directly through the lens and onto the sensor. So they should be visible on any newer cameras without the traditional mirror redirecting light from a viewfinder to film or digital sensor.
