Whoah that’s sick

Anyone want to buy a gently used, lightly goldfish dusted ID4?

Jfc why are people the actual worst? I’m sorry to hear that

So it’s going to be one of those weeks I guess.

Or the bridge toll.

Is it really alive when the servers go down though?

I lived in Germany and I fucking love how straight up they are. This was such a good episode.

Man I love German honesty

Holy physics buttons, this is so good!

Sadly it’s one of the reasons large platforms proliferate so much. What’s actually good for society usually keeps monetization separated but isn’t what grows things. Endless frustration and the burnout of open source in general :/

Completely so, but it does scare me a bit that it works at all. It’ll be a real bummer the day an AI can write a whole c++ compiler better than clang in one go.

In Canada some stations let you check in on the app and then you just fuel up and drive away. That was my favourite before I got an EV.

Their flagship car only sold a few thousand last quarter as is. They’ve been dead for a while.

For newbie Fedora users this is awesome. No more dnf install akmod.

The other half just weren’t asked.

Hell yeah, weird game where you worked in a nursing home. I could do without that one though.

The fact remains that the people committing the acts would still exist. The underlying problem needs to be fixed.

Get this man some gloves!

He’s already threatened so many times, I just don’t think we give a shit any more.

If we really do live in a simulation, it’s concerning that an advanced civilization couldn’t implement RTTI for it. #programming

BOY WAS IT EVER

Hell I’m Canadian and I’ll probably never buy an American car again on principle after this BS. Thinking long and hard hard about how much I like this iPhone as well come this fall.

When people no longer feel their voice can affect change, they turn to other means of communication.

Bet that the US will put up some kind of restriction against people crossing the border with one.

100%. Cars and good e-bikes have have systems to prevent it from charging when it’s cold and cars warm their batteries up before charging, but if you force it in a lab like I do, you can completely kill a battery in like 10 cycles at -10°C if you fast charge it.

But if you only ever charge NMC to 4.06V ~80%, and cycle slowly (~3 hr charge/discharge times) it can last 5000+ cycles with the right additives. That’s like 1 million miles of driving.

Phone batteries are even quite a bit worse in that sense. They are usually LCO cathode and typically don’t live past 500-700 cycles but have very high energy density, whereas EVs are NMC or LFP and can hit much longer cycle life albeit slightly lower. There’s always some trade off.

I’ve asked my company to do the same. I’d love to see more of our government distance themselves from the insanity of this platform.

I’ve asked for my company to consider the same action.

Correct. Using a Lvl 2 charger only you may still have 90+% capacity after a decade of driving. Battery chemistry and quality are important factors too, but much easier on the system long term.
