That may explain it. I have a Qrevo S, which is from 2024, while yours is from 2022. The only thing that it ever gets stuck at is one spot where, from under the couch, it can see out the ground-level window, and get stuck between the couch and window ledge (not actually stuck, just confused), because the LiDAR sees out the window. And I fixed that just by setting a small exclusion zone there. It never "gets lost" - maybe your house has some vast open spaces that it can't handle? But the LiDAR seems to see pretty far. The only other issues I've had are things like where I'll have a loose cord on the floor or some large piece of debris or whatnot, and even then, it's usually good at not getting stock on them. I'm also impressed with how well it deals with doors vs. a Roomba - my Roomba used to always get itself locked in rooms by accidentally closing doors after it entered, while the Roborock really tries to avoid ever touching them.

The Qrevo S has actually rotating mops, and they do a superb job with the floor. Spotless. My robot has the hardest mopping job in the world, too - it has to clean under my parrot's cage, and he poops off the edge onto a plastic mat under it ;)

I've never had to contact support - hopefully I don't need to :)

I've used ChatGPT to write code and Gemini to debug it. If you pass the feedback back and forth, it takes a couple iterations but they'll eventually agree that it's all good and I find that's about 90-95% of the way to where I need it to be. Earlier today I took a 6kb script that had been used as something fast and dirty for years - written by someone long gone from the company - and completely revamped it into something much more powerful, robust, and polished in both its code and its output. Script grew to about 20kb, but it's 10x better and I only had to make minor tweaks. Between the two, they found all sorts of hidden bugs and problems with it.

You don't fear the Soviets you love them. The Soviets are the friend of the right wing because the Soviets weren't Communists they were oligarchs and right wingers and you love them.

That's why you can have Daddy Trump fucking kids and doing whatever the fuck Putin says and just loving every moment of it.

The US Republican party is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the KGB and Soviet Russia under a different brand name. You're not fooling anyone. Go back to worshiping your kiddy fucker.

Did it take to get that nonsense modded up to +4.

It's impossible to have conversations with the right wing because the right wing never does anything in good faith. The second you do anything in good faith on the right wing you stop being on the right wing.

The right wing is about obedience. You obey the people above you on the chain and you get obedience from the people below you. That's why it appeals to so many people. For some they are cowards that want order and want to feel like somebody is in charge and for a lot of them they are losers who desperately crave respect but are incapable of doing anything worthy of it.

And that's why the right wing will always support kiddy fuckers. So long as those pedophiles are above them on the chain they are unquestionable and can do no wrong. And Trump is at the absolute top of the right wing chain. So he can go around fucking kids and still get solid support from 1/3 of the country.

Meanwhile foreign nations are using the destructiveness of right-wing politics and economics to obliterate America.

Honestly I think those foreign nations are being stupid. They do not understand how crazy and dumb Americans are and they haven't realized that although we may be destroying our economy we aren't doing the same to our military. Sooner or later we're going to hand nuclear launch codes to religious lunatics and then it's game over.

But in the meantime you'll be able to say the n word in public and get away with it and people will tell you Merry Christmas and you won't have to look at trans girls except when you're masturbating.

Ford is a real mixed bag, I'm not a superfan by any means, or even a fan frankly. I've bought two Ford pickups and regretted them both. But I also got frankly some of the worst examples, one of them was supposed to have been worked on and it turned out it was rebuilt incorrectly and the other was a 7.3 IDI with a turbo and I didn't know about their weak blocks at the time. But I also had a V6 Aero Bird which was a shockingly good car, and have only respect for the 80s F150 with the 300ci straight six even though I'd rather have a '60s Chevy with a 292.

The F150 Lightning also isn't a good enough truck for what they charged for it. Ford was banking on a larger supply of suckers. I'd love to own one, but I'm sure not shopping in that market segment. Ford also didn't plan to ever offer the Lightning I wanted, a tradesman model with the big battery.

Oligarchs and billionaires do.

Getting worried about government is like getting worried about a hammer. I'm not worried about the hammer I'm worried about the psychopath bashing my head in with it.

What's funny is the same people who tell me gun control is bad also tell me that we should ban hammers.

For the depressingly large number of people who don't get the analogy see, government is the hammer here and conservatives demand we eliminate government without understanding that is both impossible and leaves a giant power vacuum that billionaires are very happy to exploit.

You've got Google you could leave your bubble anytime you want. You could for example use Google to find multiple news stories and lots of direct evidence of exactly what I described. You could find lots more direct evidence of right wing media being inorganic and billionaire backed too if you care to leave your bubble.

But golly gosh gee isn't it comfortable there?

I mean until it's not. The other thing the internet outside your bubble is full of is people who are just fucked eight ways from Sunday because of right-wing trickle down economics.

If you're old enough you will die before it hits you. Good luck.

When this bullshit crashes the economy. Unlike the 2008 market crash the upcoming grifter crash is going to have no floor because there's no actual assets behind it except your 401k.

There's only so much money laundering can do. A recent study found. Since 1975 80 trillion dollars has been moved to the top. So consumers are not going to be able to weather this. Especially with the collusion going on for rent that was just starting to get eliminated before the administrative change.

I think the problem is we have too many old people who think they are insulated from this. By the time they find out they aren't it'll be too late.

Make a specific objection or fuck off with your vagueposting.

Spoken like a true worshiper of prosperity theology.

I smell a maggot who doesn't want to be reminded that Cheeto Benito pardoned drug traffickers.

When you suggested this cyber truck was better than literally any product. Those fake leather boots being sold on YouTube or a better product than the cybertruck.

The problem with electric trucks is the range when fully loaded. I think that they would be useful for municipalities that need a work truck that putts is around fixing a few things but if you're actually going to haul things in it the range drops to about 100 to 150 miles before you need to charge and the people I know that drive around a lot in a truck do about 300 in a day.

The cybertruck is too unreliable to be used for any of that though. It's the ultimate pavement princess.

I've heard that the rivian is okay but it's kind of expensive and it's a smaller truck than the F-150 lightning.

All that said most of the people I've seen online who own one bought it for a pavement princess. I haven't seen a lot of people buying electric trucks as work trucks. I think if they could get the rain shop another 30 or 40, maybe 50% then the electricity versus gas would bring people in.

When it comes to work trucks I can tell you that people are going to go have the best for their pocketbook

The cybertruck is pure shit. It is the least reliable Tesla by a wide margin, and Tesla was recently named the least reliable vehicle in America.

The lightning might be a vehicle without a business case, but it's a major revision from the normal f-series, down to having independent rear suspension. The f150 is also the most popular vehicle on the planet. While Ford has had some massive failures in it like the 3 valve 5.4, you're still barking up the wrong tree here

Yeah when I added a device to my plan and signed a contract, I guess, they were giving a $10 discount per line for auto pay. That somehow had gone down to $5 since then. Seems like that would be a change of terms of an agreement, though I didn't read the fine print to figure out if that's the case. Either case, very sleazy, and up to me to take my chances with cell service from a discount carrier.

Because there weren't very many of them and most of them were out in the open. Also none of them were directly interfering with my country's politics.

There's a huge difference between somebody trying to support a political cause in their country and someone trying to encourage right-wing extremism in another country because they know right wing extremism leads to bad outcomes

Also Trump fucks kids. I mean you're not seriously asking that question in good faith so I thought I'd bring up the fact that Trump is a pedophile since what you're really looking for is to cause trouble. And while it is absolutely true that Trump fucks kids like we have tons of evidence of it and guys like you are still happy to make him president, that doesn't mean that Trump doesn't fuck kids it means Trump is a kiddy fucker and a pedophile
