What car do you drive where charging stops are that long? My average Supercharging session in my base Model 3 is 9 minutes. That’s barely enough time to go pee and walk my dog.
I strongly prefer road-tripping my EV because the natural breaks mean I arrive more refreshed and less sore.
They are genuinely more reliable. Having more stalls does help for when there’s issues, but they have 99.96% uptime across the entire network. I’ve had to move stalls once in my almost 3 years of ownership.
They also have their own service people that travel to chargers to fix them, where Electrify America hires local electrical contractors that may not be experts on DC Fast Charging equipment.
Edit: ran some numbers and I’ve charged 109 times on Superchargers. One failed session. I live in the rural Midwest/South so it’s not like I’m in EV heaven either.
You’re not unlucky, in the U.S. any charger that isn’t made by Tesla is unreliable. It’s been getting worse over time, and the only real hope is that every manufacturer is switching to Tesla’s charge port (now called NACS) and getting access to their Superchargers.
I had a non-Tesla EV and eventually got a Tesla because I need to road trip regularly and can’t handle chargers being down.
Are you me? 😅 I haven't been able to work for 4 years because I burnt out so hard working in politics, a field I loved.
I agree with a lot of what the author said, but sort of feel like they could do some more work on not feeling pressure from neurotypical society? I recently finished reading "Unmasking Autism" by Devon Price and really found it helpful in this regard.
Nope! And yet they try to sell it as an open system lmao
I set up a new HA install a couple months ago and didn't write any YAML. It was kind of nice? The UI tools have come a long way and it discovered all my devices which had never happened before.
The thread you shared is worrying though, it's the complete opposite of the spirit of FOSS. I should probably reconsider paying for their subscription at a minimum.
Because three credit unions chose to sue Apple about it? Read the article.
Banks also have the option of offering their own NFC products on Android, not that many do anymore. Apple doesn't allow real access to NFC hardware.
New World plays alright, in the bit I’ve played since switching. Generally a good game too ☺️
Much appreciated, honestly! I had never seen it before and was kind of bummed I’m even aware of it now.
I read the copy pasted into the post, maybe they edited it out?
Why did they feel the need to to publish his daughter’s deadname? It’s truly not relevant or needed at all.
… and you can only get it on Google play. that makes sense. 🙄
Have you used it? It’s not very good. It tries to run red lights, makes random swerves and inputs, and generally drives like someone on sedatives.
They’ve had to inject a ton of map data to try to make up for the horrendously low resolution cameras, but “HD MaPs ArE a CrUtCh” right?
No radar or lidar means the sun can blind it easily, and there’s a blind spot in front of the car where cameras cannot see.
Is what they’ve made impressive? Sure, but it’s nowhere near safe enough to be on public roads in customer’s cars. At all.
I have never liked anything pumpkin, before or after transitioning. everyone is shocked by this.
Big fan of fastmail here, been using it for many years on multiple domains. Simple and reliable.
It makes no sense to me why we pressure people to take breaks from psychiatric medication when we don’t for like any other condition?
Take your meds, fuck em.
Hello from another self-hosted instance! Having absolute control on what you see is very nice.
You could argue that we all are to some degree
Thank you! It’s a fine mouse, the battery lasts legitimately months of use, and it recharges enough to use for the day in a minute. People just like yelling about Apple.
My G Pro Superlight has a charge port on the front and I never use it while charging because it isn’t pleasant to use that way, with tension from the cable. I just go pee and come back and it’s charged plenty.
