I live downtown PS. Have struck out finding fresh take-out sushi in grocery stores. Best so far, for some reason, has been Stater Brothers near Vista Chino and Sunrise. Nice selection; nice woman behind the counter; fresh; good prices. A roll tray around $13.99. Has anyone found better here? It's a bit of a drive for me, but so far, totally worth it. Thank you.

Headed out on road trip, with laptop. I keep looking for ways to buy some kind of locking metal box to slide down into the Sub Trunk of my Y 2023, maybe similar to a lock box you'd see in your hotel room. But there's no way to secure the box to the car itself. I do see these "tether cables" for the grocery tie downs. I'd love to be able to walk away from the car for a few hours, thinking that some core valuables could truly be secured. Solutions? Thank you.

Bought my 2023 ModelY, new, 2.5 years ago, never had the courage to try FSD until today. It blew my mind how "humanlike" it drove the car. I just couldn't risk a $50k automobile; that was holding me back.

Car: 2023 Model Y Base Model RWD

FSD: v14.2.2.5 with HW4

Notes:

1. BUYING: Incredibly simple to buy and get running, thru the App. Within minutes I was driving FSD in my neighborhood, with my jaw open.

2. MODE: I started with Chill, but quickly moved to Standard. Chill kept me about ten MPH under the speed limit, and a couple of people honked and yelled me. So I switched to Standard. Nobody drives the speed limit in my town. Nobody.

3. THROWING IT A CURVE: Later, I was in a neighborhood where the power went out. Traffic signals were all black. Tons of cars. Everybody hot and pissed. 112F. The Tesla effortlessly moved thru FIVE consecutive traffic signals, which were now "Four Way Stops"; two lanes in each direction. No cop there; just everybody figure it out. It followed the car in front of me, then came to the stop, and somehow "looked around" and knew when to go. Incredible.

4. RIGHT ON RED: It would come to a traffic light as I got near my home, and it would "inch out into traffic", like it a human would, and look to see if it could turn right on red. Perfect.

5. MOVE TO LEFT TURN LANE: This got a little weird, but nothing bad happened. Long distances where the center lane was paved and open to be moved into, so cars behind me would fall into left turn lane way way in advance of the light. So many that, my car almost did not have a spot to move into when it got to the intersection. My car would wait until the double-yellow broke, and it was legal to move into turn lane. I wondered if the turn lane got full, would my car just not turn, and go straight, or would it wait? Not sure.

6. FUNNY: So as I was driving, and I'd meet another Tesla head-on, I'd begin to look for their fingers on the steering wheel, to see if they were FSD or not. Like some little secret club.

7. ALL IN ALL: Just an incredible achievement. Perfectly smooth turns; smooth lane changes; no lunges; mostly held the speed limit; effortless. When I bought the car, the first amazement was actually driving an EV and not buying expensive gasoline, but now I'm moving in Phase Two, which is how crazy it is that your car drives itself. Bravo Tesla.

Road trip: today in Lake Havasu AZ, and then to Coachella Valley tomorrow. Doing the math, I have to swing out of the way, to Quartzite, to find a SuperCharger. I can't make it direct to the 29 Palms SuperCharger.

My question: I wonder if there is a network of Tesla owners who have installed 240V chargers at their homes, who would be willing to receive payment for a charge? Luckily, on this trip, I did find one slot open at a Destination Charger, but it's an overnight charge to top it off, and luckily the hotel did not require me to be a guest there. But it was a bit unnerving, also because it was 115F today. Lake Havasu is a pretty good size town, but it's a Ford F150 kinda town. Actually, more like a Ford F250.

If I had a Home Charger 240V, would I want some random Tesla to just pull into my driveway and hook up his car for 30 minutes?

I've gone down the Rabbit Hole, with Breville Barista Espress, Scales, Replacement Basket, Bean Expiratation Dates, but odd to have a hobby where I can only drink ONE per day, at 6am, or else I can't sleep. (Over 60). I love the learning experience, watching YouTube videos, but has anyone begun to cut their beans between Caffeine and DeCaf, or any other solution? I mistakedly bought some FrenchRoast beans at TraderJoes, and I'm climbing the walls; too strong. Thanks in advance.

I'm sniffing around to buy a SFH with pool, in Florida, near the beach. In all the listings, I see a few for sale that are (failed?) AirBNBs obviously. They even mention it in the body copy. I'd be buying it for myself, to live in; not to continue as ABnB. There's something appealing about it to me, because you just know that everything works, and everything has been cleaned almost daily. Maintenance has been done. They feel organized and neat. Many are even advertised as Turnkey, with furniture. Are there any downsides to this? Am I overlooking anything? Thanks in advance.

I've been to Koffi by Ace; Ernest on PC; the big Starbucks on PC, and Coffeeismo. Once you get your FlatWhite, which place to you prefer to just sit, drink, and ponder? Interior vibe. Decor. Music. Which place could become your Third Place? Thank you.

I have multiple sets of Sonos in one room. Fives; Era300s, Sub. Is there a way to send the Sound out of MacBookPro Sound, in the Mac menu, to multiple sets of Sonos at once? The Mac Sound utility seems to force me to choose just one set at a time. Thank you.

I have a new M5 MacBook Pro, running CaptureOne 16.7.7.19. Shot a large job last week with Fuji GFX100ii. 102mP files. Everything was great. Job is over. Now batching for client. Today CaptureOne with spinning Beach Ball when batching maybe 150 files at a time. Just frozen. I threw away Cache and rebuilt Previews. Now it's hanging on even 50 files at a time, batching in to JPG. Can you "repair" a Session? The VERIFY says the Session is fine. Suggestions? THANK YOU.
