Changing Screen Position on raspberry pi
Hello there, I am working on a little project as a way to improve my cad abilities. I am hoping to build a custom fantasy computer to go along with the pico8 fantasy system. I am basing it off of the Mac se/30 but am obviously hoping to get that nice 1:1 aspect ratio.
Trouble is that decent size 1:1 screens don't seem to exist as far as I have researched, I instead found a small 4:3 lcd panel I can use, and was originally planning to simply rotate the screen and let it render 1:1 while physically covering the top and bottom, but it seems to add significantly more vertical height than I anticipated.
so now I am hoping that I can shift the screen down and somehow get the PI to render only in the topmost visible section.
Included are a couple pictures of what I mean.
I am just wondering if there is a way, in software, to rotate and move up the screen, or at least the pico 8 window

I find that chatgpt and claude try to give you one answer and sounds mildly to very certain about themselves without giving references.
Perplexity actually gives reference links for each claim it makes, which I find better because I can check it's work and fork off and explore further myself at any point along it's reasoning.

US airports refuse to air Kristi Noem video blaming Democrats for shutdown
Airports in Phoenix, Las Vegas, Seattle and elsewhere cite laws barring partisan political content at TSA checkpoints
Several major international US airports, including Phoenix Sky Harbor , Harry Reid international in Las Vegas, Seattle–Tacoma and Charlotte Douglas airport in North Carolina, are opting to block a video from the homeland security secretary, Kristi Noem, that blames Democrats for the ongoing federal government shutdown from airing at their checkpoints.
Airport authorities in Phoenix, Las Vegas, Seattle, Portland, Oregon, Charlotte and Westchester county, New York, have refused to display the footage at security checkpoints, saying the overtly political messaging potentially violates state and federal law, including the Hatch Act, which bars federal employees from partisan political activity.
In the video, obtained first by Fox News, Noem tells travelers: “Democrats in Congress refuse to fund the federal government, and because of this, many of our operations are impacted, and most of our TSA [Transportation Security Administration] employees are working without pay.”

Trump admin pressured Facebook into removing ICE-tracking group
Bondi alleged that a "wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs." She added that the DOJ "will continue engaging tech companies to eliminate platforms where radicals can incite imminent violence against federal law enforcement."When contacted by Ars, Facebook owner Meta said the group "was removed for violating our policies against coordinated harm." Meta didn't describe any specific violation but directed us to a policy against "coordinating harm and promoting crime," which includes a prohibition against "outing the undercover status of law enforcement, military, or security personnel."
The statement was sent by Francis Brennan, a former Trump campaign advisor who was hired by Meta in January.

because the conditions that made the "baby boomers" or the characteristic "millennials" are almost exclusive to the post-ww2 economic boom in the US.
gen-z is just a name that describes young people. why not just say young people instead of making up generational war nicknames?
You could make that case for the boomers, but with the advent of the Internet it's not really limited to specific countries anymore. Gen z just describes people who grew up with some access to the internet, but not to the extent of alpha. A large part of these recent revolts were caused or accelerated by social media. Gen Z is more specific than young people, and in this case also more culturally relevant.
Doesn't matter anyway, even if you think Gen Z isn't real you know what age range the article is talking about.
historically it's always young people and minorities (of any age) that go out to fuck things up. they are the ones who get the most fucked after all. no need to make generational divides out of it though, it's not just them getting the short end of the stick.
and not just genz grew up with internet, it's just that they are the young ones still. shitty fucking propaganda tbh.
not ancient. propagandizing younger generations to weaponize juvenoia is a very recent thing, if you were born in the last 50 years you can remember it, as i do.
we can be better and not help further this suspicious ass agenda.

‘Pete Hegseth Has United the Media!’ Only One Outlet Has Agreed to Pentagon’s New Press Rules as Fox News, CNN and More Refuse to Comply
Pete Hegseth‘s Defense Department has threatened to revoke press credentials of news organization that do not agree to restrictive new coverage rules — and says it may bar journalists who don’t agree to abide by the rules from physical access to the Pentagon’s grounds. But more than three dozen news orgs have said they are refusing to sign on to the requirements.On Tuesday, in a joint statement five major TV news outlets — ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News and NBC News — said they were not agreeing to the new rules. The Pentagon has told reporters they must sign an agreement for the new rules by Tuesday or turn in their press passes by Wednesday.
According to the Defense Department’s press office, which outlined the new rules last month, reporters covering the Pentagon must sign a pledge not to obtain or use unauthorized material (even if the information is unclassified). If they do not, they will potentially be barred from the Pentagon.
“Today, we join virtually every other news organization in declining to agree to the Pentagon’s new requirements, which would restrict journalists’ ability to keep the nation and the world informed of important national security issues,” the networks said in the statement. “The policy is without precedent and threatens core journalistic protections. We will continue to cover the U.S. military as each of our organizations has done for many decades, upholding the principles of a free and independent press.”
The five networks join a number of other news orgs that have already said they won’t agree to the new rules being imposed by Hegseth, a former Fox News host. Those include the New York Times, AP, Reuters, the Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, Politico, NewsNation and the Hill, along with conservative-leaning outlets like Newsmax and the Washington Examiner.

OANN.
... Last paragraph before I cut off the article for the summary in the post, and then jump to the big list.
So yeah, literally only the cultiest MAGA network is onboard, as far as I can tell, literally all other US journalism outlets possibly relevant to military reporting have refused it, there's a slew of defense oriented publications on there, a good deal of other pretty conservative outlets on the noncompliance list too.
... They did.
On Tuesday, in a joint statement five major TV news outlets — ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News and NBC News — said they were not agreeing to the new rules.
They signed this statement:
"Today, we join virtually every other news organization in declining to agree to the Pentagon’s new requirements, which would restrict journalists’ ability to keep the nation and the world informed of important national security issues,” the networks said in the statement. “The policy is without precedent and threatens core journalistic protections.

... this is all in the parts I excerpted, in the post.
You've misunderstood the thread.
They refused to sign on to the new requirements along with everyone else.
... I posted the thread.
The person I am responding to used the verb 'sign', alone, which could refer to signing the joint refusal statement, or, it could be referring to signing on to the new requirements from the DoW.
Regardless, it seems you have the correct factual understanding, regardless of phrasing, so, all good, I was just trying to make sure nobody had a factual misunderstanding.

My guess is that the administration backs down. Maybe they could lose some of those, but if they can't even get Fox News and Newsmax onboard, they're just basically shutting down their media coverage.
EDIT: Also, I'm amazed that the administration managed to dick things up to that degree. I don't have a very high opinion of Hegseth, but if there's one thing that you'd think that his experience would be relevant for, you'd think that he'd at least be able to handle media relations with Fox News. The guy spent the last decade there.
El Paso family claims Border Patrol killed their dog during search, CBP reviewing incident
cross-posted from: sh.itjust.works/post/47935906
The son answered the door and, while he permitted the agents to search his home, claiming he had nothing to hide, he asked if they could wait first while he put the family dog, Chop, a Rottweiler, away in the bathroom before they walked in, as the dog could be aggressive...
According to the family, it is at this point that the son went to his pickup truck to retrieve his ID and a Border Patrol agent entered the home and, as a result, ended up shooting the dog.The family stressed that the agents knew-- the son had told them-- that Chop was put in the bathroom for their safety and that the agents opened the door, let Chop out and shot him.
Furthermore, the family said none of the Border Patrol agents helped the family, who desperately tried to render aid to the dog, which bled to death on the kitchen floor.
The family added that when they confronted agents, Border Patrol reportedly told them they were working from an anonymous tip tied to the previous owners of the home, who lived there two years ago.

Prince Andrew’s Epstein Interviewer Predicts More Names
Maitlis reacted in an interview for British radio station LBC in which she also predicted more careers would be ruined by the Epstein story: "I mean, the number of people that have ended up lying for Epstein, whose careers have ended up in absolute tatters because of their connection to him. I think we're at the tip of the iceberg, I genuinely do."
Yet a couple of months later, in February 2011, we now know he emailed Epstein to say: "I’m just as concerned for you! Don’t worry about me! It would seem we are in this together and will have to rise above it. Otherwise keep in close touch and we’ll play some more soon!!!!"
The message came the day after the first interview with his accuser Virginia Giuffre, published in The Mail on Sunday, which included a photo of Andrew with his arm around Guiffre's waist.

Israel kills five Palestinians in Gaza and announces it will not abide by the terms of facilitating humanitarian aid, despite ceasefire agreement
cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/37547335
Israel kills at least five Palestinians in Gaza and announces it will not abide by the humanitarian terms of the ceasefire agreement. Aid is entering Gaza at an insufficient pace, with authorities warning it represents “a drop in the ocean” of Gaza’s needs. The United Nations Development Program says that $70 billion will be required to rebuild Gaza. President Donald Trump continues his “victory tour” of the Levant, taking credit for the ceasefire in speeches at the Knesset and at the Sharm el-Sheikh summit in Egypt, where he signed the deal presided over by the heads of state of Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, and Indonesia, while the leadership of the Palestinian resistance did not attend. A live microphone records Trump agreeing to arrange a meeting between his son and Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto, saying “I’ll have Eric call. Should I do that? He’s such a good boy.” The U.S. plans to commit half a billion dollars to anti-drone defense in anticipation of the 2026 FIFA World Cup and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. ICE continues to harass residents in Chicago and Portland. China threatens retaliatory tariffs after Trump signaled plans to impose “100 percent tariffs” on Chinese goods. Washington reaffirms its readiness to defend its ally in the Philippines if hostilities in the South China Sea escalate further. Floods ravage Mexico’s east coast. Madagascar’s president flees the country amid ongoing “Gen Z” protests.

‘I am the only one that matters’: Trump deals praise and insults at Gaza summit
The chief interest at Monday’s largely pointless Gaza summit in Sharm el-Sheikh lay in whether Donald Trump insulted or feted his fellow global leaders as they approached the self-styled world’s greatest peacemaker to shake hands and pose for a thumbs-up photograph.
As the host of the party, the US president had arrived – unapologetically – more than two hours late, musing to the Israeli parliament before boarding his flight from Tel Aviv that he feared his wealthy guests would already have left, leaving him with only two poor countries remaining.
He need not have worried. First up on the stage to be greeted by Trump was Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the vice-president of the United Arab Emirates. A beaming Trump pointed out Mansour’s “lovely shoes”, then pointed at him, saying: “A lot of cash, bundles of cash.” The Manchester City owner attempted to beam back happily at this self-evident truth.

gli inutili pensieri personali noiosi sulla discrepanza uniscolastica dell’octo…
Ultimamente stavo pensando (ahia…), quasi rimuginando a riguardo, per qualche motivo, che questo terzo anno di università, in termini di vibe, in alcuni specifici frangenti mi riporta un po’ al liceo… e non so se è una cosa buona. Mi sono tenuta questa pazzia per un po’, ma veramente più ci penso e più mi sembra valida, quindi eccola qui come al solito per chi non ha paura di subirla… 😈Innanzitutto, l’ambiance. Questa è particolarmente interessante, perché come vibe si divide in più punti, eppure resta consistente con la premessa; tolta l’aula dove si tengono i corsi facoltativi quest’anno, che non mi riporta a nulla di antico:
- Il lunedì mattina, si va nel laboratorio al primo piano… che, quando le tapparelle sono aperte, ed entra la luce, mi riporta spaventosamente all’ora di informatica al liceo; dove, a dire il vero, si faceva forse anche di più di cosa facciamo in questo laboratorio con le due materie di questa mattina… cioè, io faccio le mie robe come allora, e gli altri perdono tempo col telefono o videogiocano in ogni caso come allora, ma il professore lì a scuola non stava solo a spiegare da delle diapositive come qui all’università. Sarà perché anche al liceo il laboratorio di informatica era al primo piano, e non sotterraneo come gli altri laboratori di PC all’università, e più o meno le dimensioni sono comparabili, anziché esagerate con file lunghissime?
- Il giovedì e venerdì mattina, invece, si sta nell’aula normale, alquanto ampia ma fredda di inverno… (me ne sono già lamentata abbastanza, non aggiungerò altro…) come al liceo, finché non accendono i termosifoni, lì a dicembre. Però, come al quinto anno di liceo in particolare la mia era una delle poche aule senza termosifoni, qui all’università questa è una delle poche aule dove i condizionatori sembrano non riuscire a fottutamente funzionare… che è quantomeno curiosa, come corrispondenza. Non bella, ma ci sta.
- Il mercoledì, ad orario di merda purtroppo, come già detto anche questo, ci sono le conferenze delle aziende in un’aula che non è presa a caso, ma è apposta per le conferenze, con una specie di palco seppur non profondo e le sedie a salire… che, con facilità ovvia, riporta subito all’aula magna del liceo, e a tutte le ore felicemente perse (perché erano di mattina, in quel caso) lì dentro nel corso di 5 anni, ad ascoltare la gente yappare per assemblee di istituto o per i soliti eventi con ospiti da fuori. Peccato non abbia lo stesso odore di polvere, e sia molto più piccola, altrimenti le vibe erano veramente spiccicate uguali.
Questa è una foto del laboratorio, comunque… Chi andava al liceo con me E leggerà questo post, cioè nessuno, noterà anche una certa somiglianza per come dalle finestre si vede l’altro fabbricato, con il cortile sotto… che magia… 🤩
Poi, una nota piccola ma importante ci sarebbe da fare sui professori… e questa non è buona, principalmente. Per quanto di personaggioni in questi 2 anni già passati me ne siano capitati, e più volte in passato ho fatto paragoni mentali con alcuni del liceo, con quest’anno siamo veramente ad un bel livello!
- C’è il professore di Android che si incazza se la gente bisbiglia — e oh, in realtà per questo lo rispetto, tecnicamente ha ragionissima — e, per quanto non urli come a scuola invece è prassi, questo suo lamentarsi continuamente del rumore mi fa per forza pensare alle ore di scuola… con la differenza che lì eravamo tutti obbligati a stare, mentre qui, chi non vuole seguire la lezione se ne può andare fuori a parlare; oltre al fatto che il suo è uno dei corsi a scelta, quindi basta.
- C’è poi il professore di non dico quale delle due materie obbligatorie (sia mai ‘sto blog giri proprio quando non voglio, poi succede che me lo sogno la notte…) che, vi giuro, è attualmente il nuovo yapping final boss, definitivo. Per carità, l’anno scorso ne ho avuto uno mooolto peggiore sotto questo punto di vista, e del primo anno non parliamo nemmeno, ma questo… mi appare, fisicamente e come attitudine, un misto tra il prof. di chimica e quello di educazione fisica del liceo, e parla e straparla aggiungendo dettagli superflui quando spiega che è un mal di testa…
Ahimè, le similitudini coi vecchi tempi — dove ero allo stesso tempo più tormentata ma più spensierata, nonché c’è da dire che non era ancora arrivato il mio glow-down, seppure il mio glow-up non c’è mai stato prima e sta arrivando solo ora (…lasciate stare, sono normali paranoie da ragazza magica…) — finiscono qui. O quasi: ero tanto socialmente inetta allora come ora, e tutto sommato ugualmente poco cagata, ma ora è per certi versi anche peggio sotto questo aspetto, come tra l’altro sospettavo prima di iniziare l’università… almeno al tempo c’era nella stessa mia classe gente che conoscevo circa bene e con cui scambiare delle parole di vario tipo, mentre ora no… c’è appena qualcuno in altre classi, in alcuni momenti, che non è per niente la stessa cosa. Ah e, letteralmente dimenticavo… al liceo non c’era nessun piano di studi da presentare, mentre qui mi tocca, ed entro questo venerdì… l’altro ieri pensavo fosse inizio ottobre, mentre invece siamo a metà. Il tempo sta proprio volando!!! 😩

Barack Obama accuses Republicans of wanting to ‘rig the next election’ in ad supporting Governor Newsom
Obama's comments appear in a new video supporting Gavin Newsom's Proposition 50 which would allow the California legislature to draw new congressional boundaries ahead of the midterms
Barack Obama has entered the political fray ahead of November's special election in California, accusing Republicans of attempting to "rig the next election" in a new ad backing Governor Gavin Newsom's Proposition 50, a ballot measure that could reshape the state's congressional map.
"Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years," Obama says in the 30-second ad, urging voters to approve the proposal. "You can stop Republicans in their tracks."

Obviously, ignoring security is pervasive, well-established, S.O.P.
Incompetence wins, because it is "normal"?
I read only a sample of this book manning.com/books/secure-by-de… and its whole fundamental understanding is that our world has been using the wrong framing of security, all along.
It isn't paint you put on finished-work, for nice highlights ( my metaphor, not theirs, I'm just trying to communicate the idea of what we've been doing )
Rather, it is a set of concerns that need to be kept-in-mind throughout the entire development-process.
So, more lives will be subject to identity-theft, wrongful-accusation/conviction-of-crimes, robbery, etc, because corporate institutions refused to be responsible..
Will anything make the irresponsible-authorites accountable?
Of course not: establishment protects its own.
Force-altering the framing of secure development, however, that does look like it can make our future investments be significantly less corrupt.
I have not bought that book, I have not read more than some of the sample, I'm not saying it definitively is the understanding we're needing.
I AM saying that what the authors were saying in the part I'd read definitely is on-the-mark about us solving-the-wrong-problem, producing wrong-results ( I'd say pretending to solve problems, as what we keep proving we're doing is fundamentally more-corrupt than merely solving the wrong problem, but .. )
Manning has specials, periodically, so it should be possible to get the ebook for 40%..50% off, if one is patient, & persistent in checking their website.
I want the results we're making to be better.
If anyone knows better means for making our results better, please correct my comment.

Why Signal’s post-quantum makeover is an amazing engineering achievement - Ars Technica
The encryption protecting communications against criminal and nation-state snooping is under threat. As private industry and governments get closer to building useful quantum computers, the algorithms protecting Bitcoin wallets, encrypted web visits, and other sensitive secrets will be useless. No one doubts the day will come, but as the now-common joke in cryptography circles observes, experts have been forecasting this cryptocalypse will arrive in the next 15 to 30 years for the past 30 years.The uncertainty has created something of an existential dilemma: Should network architects spend the billions of dollars required to wean themselves off quantum-vulnerable algorithms now, or should they prioritize their limited security budgets fighting more immediate threats such as ransomware and espionage attacks? Given the expense and no clear deadline, it’s little wonder that less than half of all TLS connections made inside the Cloudflare network and only 18 percent of Fortune 500 networks support quantum-resistant TLS connections. It's all but certain that many fewer organizations still are supporting quantum-ready encryption in less prominent protocols.

How come this instance is often intermittently unreachable?
This is more a technical curiosity than a complaint.
And it's not only about the last two days. I have been finding this instance to be intermittently unreachable more often than any other popular(ish) instance I occasionally visit, and more than what some instance trackers show (I don't know how they work).
And luckily when that happens, cloudflare helpfully informs me that the problem is not at my end, although not always.
EDIT because the post didn't go through!
France voices deep concern after Israeli drone injures UN peacekeeper in southern Lebanon
France on Tuesday expressed deep concern over an Israeli army drone incident that injured a UN peacekeeper in southern Lebanon, urging Israel to halt its violations of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and to fully respect the ceasefire agreement.
In a statement, the French Foreign Ministry said a grenade, dropped by an Israeli drone near a UNIFIL (UN Interim Force in Lebanon) position in the Kfarkela region on Oct. 11, exploded, injuring an Indonesian peacekeeper.

Re-Created Lemmy Server, Old Posts, & Federation issues
Hi all,
I've been running my Lemmy server since 2023 with minor issues, however I recently had my server go down for about two weeks due to a drive failure (should have been a RAID array, I know, but when I set this up originally I wasn't sure if it would be a mainstay and then I never revisited my design).
So, this has brought about a couple different problems, first and foremost federation seems completely broken? My proxy configuration and cloudflare stuff has been unchanged, so I don't think that is the issue. However, I'm not receiving new posts, comments, or upvotes (after what gets synced initially).
Here are the logs from the lemmy backend:
2025-10-14T21:05:39.429156Z WARN lemmy_server::root_span_builder: CouldntFindPost: CouldntFindPost

at src/root_span_builder.rs:16and lemmy-ui has:

{ name: 'couldnt_find_comment', message: '' }
{ name: 'couldnt_find_post', message: '' }
{ name: 'couldnt_find_post', message: '' }So I assume that posts are getting pushed across but not actually getting created?
The second question I have, and I fear there may be nothing i can do about this, is since I had to recreate my lemmy db I don't have any of the posts from my users on here anymore. They were all to other servers, so I assume there is some sort of copy out there. Is there a way that I can get them to federate back to my server? Or are they just lost to the ether of posts?
EDIT: The plot thickens...
I connected to the database, and I can see a ton of recent posts/comments/interactions, but those aren't showing up in the frontend? Maybe there is something messed up in my config, but its more or less what was in the docs (only changes were to make it work with my proxy vs the built-in nginx)
These logs are from the api, not from federation. So a client is trying to access posts and comments which dont exist. Is the Lemmy frontpage looking normal? Regarding federation, other instances would have marked your instance as dead by now. This should be reset automatically after a few days, or you can manually trigger it (eg unfollow and refollow remote communities).
I would also suggest you join the admin chat on Matrix to get more help: matrix.to/#/#lemmy-support-gen…
Matrix - Decentralised and secure communication
You're invited to talk on Matrix. If you don't already have a client this link will help you pick one, and join the conversation. If you already have one, this link will help you join the conversationmatrix.to
Ahhh okay! Yeah it seems that in the 24h since i made this post, things have started to work as I'd expect again!
Guess i was just being impatient, I've been going through lemmy withdrawals for the last week or so while i worked through this issue 🤣
Thanks for the matrix link, I'll join the room (and finally get some real use out of my matrix server)

in reply to Zak • • •I hear they are a solution to the problem of increasing mileage/efficiency. I am no fan of Tesla, but we have to admit, there is some merit to that argument, however debatable the efficiency benefits are.
That's not to say safety isn't a serious issue. The biggest problem is the reliance on electronics. Now if someone can reinvent the design with a highly reliable mechanical system, with multiple redundancy.
Humanius
in reply to SkyNTP • • •To my knowledge, there are designs which allow you to pop out the latch without the need for electronics.
However, if I'm reading the article correctly those wouldn't be allowed either because in their default state they don't have "enough room for a hand to grip behind them". That wording alone explicitely bans flush doorhandles, and not just electronic doorhandles

in reply to SkyNTP • • •Zak
in reply to SkyNTP • • •I've seen three designs for purely mechanical flush door handles in production use:
The push-then-pull central hinge is probably not a great choice for the application because its operation will be less obvious to a rescuer trying to get the door open quickly. It's still better than something that requires electronics.
NotMyOldRedditName
in reply to Zak • • •The Model 3 / Model Y are push to pull, it's just not a centred hinge, it's more to the left side, within the 1st 1/4 or so.
There's no reason they couldn't have done that but also make it mechanical if they'd wanted to.
magic_smoke
in reply to Zak • • •I think having an electric popper on top of an mechanical door latch (actual door handles are standard mechanic, but there's solenoid that can actuate them independently) is okay if you can find an actual usecase.
I mean sure still stupid but at least it isn't dangerous.
Same way electric locks have worked for the past 30 years on cars.
An old civic might be able to unlock from a key fob, but that's only an electronically controlled solenoid controlling a lock which is mechanical in nature, and who's main user-accessible interaction point is mechanically linked to the lock.
artyom
in reply to magic_smoke • • •The problem with having both is that the electronic one is always the primary one, and the one people will use daily. In particular Tesla hides the mechanical ones really well. So in an emergency situation, people panic and have no idea where it is or how to use it.
Electric locks actually serve a purpose though. And they're not a danger to passengers inside. What purpose do electric door handles serve? Other than being more prone to failure, more expensive, and dangerous?
Prove_your_argument
in reply to artyom • • •An oligarch's fancy?
I'm sure in product meetings it's been brought up that it's a dumb thing and they could save money and make the cars safer by not having them, then the oligarch speaks up.
magic_smoke
in reply to artyom • • •Yeah that's the design flaw. Thats literally what im saying they shouldn't do. You can make a mechanical-first door with an internal solenoid thats capable of popping the door.
The main and only handles on all the doors should be mechanical only, with door popper buttons for all four doors on the driver-side arm rest (where window controls go)
Electric door poppers ARE NOT the same thing as electric door handles, pick a thing to complain about.
POPPERS (IE:solenoids) allow the driver to open doors for passengers, while also ensuring the main way in and out is NOT dependent on electronics (when properly implemented).
Unnecessary luxury? Sure, but so are cars in a lot of the world. Solenoids are cheap, and the idea is not inherently a danger when done right.
Your issue isn't electronically controlled door poppers. Its cars being made by silicon valley, y-combinator sucking, tech-bro douchebags who thought replacing the mechanical handle with a button was a good idea.
artyom
in reply to magic_smoke • • •Jason2357
in reply to artyom • • •The purpose of the electric latch is to save the frameless window panes. It can lower the window slightly in the instant before it opens, to break the seal and avoid torsion on the glass.
Now, frameless windows are stupid and not necessary, so theres that. One dumb idea propagates another.
artyom
in reply to Jason2357 • • •Zak
in reply to Jason2357 • • •This doesn't pass a sanity check.
A mechanical handle that actuates when deflected 30 degrees can trip a microswitch at 10 degrees to slightly open the window.

You don't just introduce a law and then implement it the following day. Well Trump does but no body else does.

in reply to LyD • • •Source on that? Hobbiest aerodynamics nerd and big into F1 (and did a lot of liquid system design engineering in a previous job). Genuinely curious!
My gut feel is that a half kilo of unsprung weight (those ridiculous wheels), tighter fenders, or a bit of tail teardropping would go so much further than anything door-handle-wise. It's certainly helping promote flow attachment, but you've got poor flow rates there because of the wing mirrors anyway
LyD
in reply to frank • • •I'm talking out of my ass. I'm big into (mostly sim) racing myself, but I have no formal training or experience. You probably know way more about it than me!
If you're a racing nerd then you know how strong the suckage can be. My car uses premium fuel and I get about 7L/100km on the highway. That adds up on long trips, so I try to save fuel when I can. I've tried drafting behind transport trucks. Even at only 90 kmph, I was able to get that number down to 5L/100km.
Electric vehicles have a lot of design features to cut down on aerodynamic and mechanical drag. Special hub caps, no grilles, low drag tires, etc. for the purpose of helping their main problem and selling point: the vehicle's range on a single charge. I assumed the flush door handles were just another design feature for reducing aerodynamic drag, where every little bit counts.
Again, this is all out of my ass. I am well aware that aerodynamics are far far more complex than "smooth = better", and that most cars are probably already designed so the door handles aren't a problem. Maybe the door handles make no difference and having them flush is just optics for Tesla.

in reply to LyD • • •Ah cool! After i raced irl for like a decade I sim raced for a while. It was super fun! I'd like to get back into it someday. It's a lot better on the wallet and body than IRL stuff (especially motorcycles).
I think it helps, but it probably is more of a selling point and aesthetic than an actual help on the (agreed) biggest selling point number.
It's one of those decisions that someone up top probably made and has these kinds of stupid consequences of moving fast and breaking shit. I wouldn't be upset if it had to go to a normal one
LyD
in reply to frank • • •I've been into sim racing for nearly a decade. There's never been a better time to get into it IMO.
Sim racing games and equipment have gotten significantly better and cheaper over the last 5 years. Hydraulic pedals and direct drive wheelbases did exist, but they were in the $2k-$4k price range. Now you can get high quality gear with that technology for under $500.
iRacing and Assetto Corsa are still the kings, but we are spoiled for choice when it comes to excellent sims.
If you are any kind of gearhead you'll love it. There are even thriving sub-hobbies for things like bass shakers and motion platforms, which add back some of the seat feeling that you miss out on versus IRL.
Did you do motorcycle racing IRL? I've seen crazy motorcycle sim builds with motion, lean, etc., but I don't think serious simulators exist yet. I'd love to see it.
As for Tesla, I don't think we can know unless a Tesla engineer/aerodynamicist chimes in. There are other more serious examples of executive meddling in engineering, like the use of visual cameras instead of radar/lidar. Working for them must be a hair-pulling experience for their engineers.

in reply to Echo Dot • • •I looked into this a long time ago, and it was likely they were getting around 2-3 miles of extra range from it.

in reply to Whostosay • • •Being able to quickly get out of a burning car is important. If you only ever use the electronic door handle and your electrical system is damaged by...the fire, then you are much more likely to burn. The same problem exists on the outside of the car as rescuers have a harder time getting in to save people.
Getting stuck outside of the car in the winter is also pretty common when there is not a good place to grab when the door is covered in ice.
Car manufacturers have been making normal door handles for forever. Tesla 'fixed' something that wasn't broken.

no, this happens all the time. it allows manufacturers to respond to systems that didn't age well, or didn't stand up to public users, or children, or was unsafe in a way that didn't present itself during testing. these things happen. manufacturers make adjustments, replace parts, change software, and put it back out on the road.
