There’s an old saying: “Graphene is so versatile it can do anything except leave the laboratory”.

“We hear you, American consumer! You say you want a sub-$40k, small, basic EV. So here’s another luxury SUV/pickup truck/yacht crossover starting at $90,000.”
You are eaten by a grue
To be fair, if you take a sufficiently high dose of mercury, syphillis will no longer be your biggest problem.
They do now. The new binaries released last week, and I’ve been playing W2 on my M2 ever since!
“Hey, you know what would be fun? Let’s release really old versions of some of our games - I think fans would get a kick out of seeing them!”
“Ugh, no. Why would we want to spend the money on testing and supporting something that only a small fraction of the player base would even care about?”
“Um, ok. How about if we “accidentally” push it with our next release. We won’t have to do anything to support it - modders willl figure out how to get it going, so we don’t have to do anything, and they get a fun Easter egg. Win win.”
“Accidentally?”
“Yeah. People will backfill some reasoning for how even though we’re a professional software company, we have no idea how source code control systems work. It’ll be fun to see what they come up with.”
Weather. Snow. Effect of cold on batteries. I know everyone hates those evil SUV’s, bit when there’s 14" of snow on the ground your tesla/volt/insert your favorite EV ain’t gonna cut it
How so? I live in Boston, where it gets cold and snowy. During the winter, the efficiency on my Bolt goes from 4.0mi/kWh (134.8 mpg equivalent) to 2.7mi/kWh to (90.99 mpg equivalent), and I park outside in the cold. Otherwise, it works just like any car I’ve had. Why exactly do I need an SUV?
Once USB became the standard their was no real reason to hold onto lightning other than it being proprietary and them wanting to hand hold their users
Other than the fact that they promised when they switched to lightning they wouldn’t change connectors again for a decade.
Because when they switched from the 30 pin connector to lightning, everybody bitched and moaned about it. So they promised they’d keep lightning for a decade. It’s been 11 years.
But I’m sure if they’d broken their promise and switched earlier, everyone would have been understanding.
Especially since the Ukrainians have shown that they really aren’t very good at doing that.
If it’s any solace, anybody voluntarily riding in a plane with him was probably just as bad as he was.
That’s not true. Some examples: WebKit LLVM clang Anything here: https://github.com/Developer-Ecosystem-Engineering
The busses out of Harvard station used them (71, 73, 75? and some others).
Going with the “batteries catch on fire argument” is stupid. “Batteries are heavy and expensive” is probably more compelling. But yeah, wires are better solution for things going in fixed routes.
We’ve had these in Boston since I was a kid, but recently they’ve been taking down the wires.
The devs mentioned that in one of the release notes. They say it’s due to a bug in WebKit. If you touch nothing for a second or two it will unfreeze.
This is, very simply, child abuse.
You’d think they of all people would understand the concept of data leakage.
