I mean, shit. 10-70% in 5 minutes? If that vehicle architecture and those chargers become even semi-ubiquitous, we are looking at a scenario where those EVs are road-trippable and there are no more excuses.
Of course that is asking a lot in the US at the moment.
The problem is that even if you do convince them to eliminate office culture, many CEOs are more likely to skip straight past the "let existing domestic employees work from home for their regular salaries" and instead go to the "outsource everything to the Philippines or India for 1/5 the personnel cost" strategy.
I run Immich on mine with an external drive.
I have not messed with media streaming from a Pi to a TV since the 3B, which was a laggy experience that resulted in overheating.
For that reason, hardware-wise I would recommend at least a Pi4 with some kind of cooling solution. Could be a passive metal radiative case, or active fan cooling.
Who the fuck is buying Billy Jack on DVD in current year?
Agree but this does need to be explained to people who aren't in the know. These laws are currently being marketed as "put the power in parents hands" in various states left, right, and center.
Its a good bet when there seems to be widespread bipartisan push for restrictive laws that literally no one asked for, it's gonna be something bad. But you have to explain to mouthbreathers in the electorate why or this shit just gets rammed through.
The Prologue may not be as advanced as you would like relative to other EVs, but for those who leased one last year before the credit went away... they got an insane deal. Less than $400/mo with nothing down, for the Elite (top trim level) AWD. Some got them in the $200/mo range.
I'm hoping the lease buys some time in the US market, and in 3 years there are new options that are neither Tesla (the Apple of the EV world) nor Chinese companies. Polestars are expensive and I have heard about the same service issues you mentioned. And I don't like the idea of trading one set of spyware for another.
The Rivian R2 Standard could be a compelling (cheaper) option when it arrives. Or if nothing else there should be a lot more low-mileage used EVs coming off lease around that time. They could be cheaper and still have a lot of life left.
Great. Can't wait for price increases or data caps or both.
CNN was reporting he had some kind of explosive material along with him. So maybe he expected it to go off but didn't.
I sat in one because the guy at the dealership said it was their only new EV in stock. I see what they were going for, it is kind of a Porsche-esque swooped form factor. Inside I thought it was proportioned very oddly for my size (above average height). It was also very expensive for a non-luxury brand sedan.
Fuck Tony for a number of reasons.
Brandon Hererra will win his seat and is a huge upgrade at that position.
For years they ran a program to reward people for using Bing (they still technically do, but the payouts are next to nothing, maybe $5-10 worth of gift cards per year).
10 years ago you could accumulate a passive income of several thousand dollars per year by farming Bing Rewards, Perk (before that company went under) and a few other programs.
