I was thinking about this, and to defray the cost and make EVs more plausible in suburban US areas, they could make one simple modification.

Instead of the current model where only certain businesses are electing to spend $10-20k per level 2 charger, they should just aim to build almost all new businesses (this would include hotels, apartments, etc.) with basic-bitch 120v 15A outdoor-rated wall outlets in front of every parking spot. The outlets could be on a post, on a wall, built into the concrete curb, whatever is up to code and can be done cheaply.

The cost per spot would be relatively low compared to level 2 or DC fast charging and then people could charge using their own portable level 1 charger and the provided outlet. Level 1 charging at virtually any parking lot, plus being able to overnight charge where you live, covers almost all use cases.

This is what I have found also. My car has a 200+ mile range at 80% charge but for my typical daily and weekly driving habits it works just great and I seldom need to use public charging.

I only get 2-3 miles of range back per hour of 120v level 1 charging, but it matters little because I just let it charge overnight in the garage and it is ready to go the next morning.

Bring back the Zune, you fuckers. At least that had cool design language.

Still running PiHole on a 3B.

The Pi 4 is plenty robust for Docker and a few small things depending on how much RAM your model has etc. Mine runs Immich well, unless you give it huge videos to transcode, which crushes the CPU and takes forever.

Which was way funnier than Elaines joke.

Yeah don't worry. This piece is just idiotic wishcasting by a British publication.

Doubt it. This is not the type of treatment that is just over the counter. Tooth regrowth would have to be administered and monitored by somebody like an orthodontist. More likely some will just become specialized in it.

Do you need the original manual?

You could check archive.org

There is also a GameFAQs page.

I recently bought some DDR3-1866 (cheap) because I deferred a new PC build for yet another year and instead chose to max out the RAM slots on my LGA1150 socket PC build from late 2014.

By the way, if anyone has an old GTX1080 they want to unload for pennies, lemme know.

I recommend getting some indie and pixel art style titles instead of just going for AAA. Reason being many of these are cheaper ($5-10, sometimes even less) so you can try different genres, and these titles also tend to sip battery so you will get lots of gameplay time.

Examples I have enjoyed, in no particular order-

Animal Well

Celeste

Stardew Valley

Vampire Survivors

Caveblazers

Balatro

Slay the Spire

I would recommend going to their Official Announcement and asking the question there or on the linked social media.

They seem to be answering questions on the Nitter/Xcancel linked thread.

Its always hilarious seeing wedding dances or disco clubs full of supposedly progressive chicks all dancing and singing along "to the sweat drop down my balls, all you bitches crawl" etc.
