What’s the grown up term for a psychopath stalker?

When?

Right now our hydrogen comes predominantly from grey and blue sources. Both produce CO and CO2 that is either released directly into the air or pumped into the ground where we pretend it doesn’t escape.

We have batteries today and they are significantly cleaner than Petrol.

"Do your own research" is the mantra of people who like to lie and not be held accountable. You’ve done the research, share your findings. We’ll perform a peer review, if you’re right then we all benefit and if you’re wrong you’ll learn something.

So much to unpack here… You’re stalking an author, complaining about not being able to troll Tesla articles, and you have Smeagol as your profile photo.

You have too much free time on your hands. Go out side and touch grass.

Why is it better? Why hasn’t it taken off?

Why is Tesla being lumped in with GM and Peloton on this? Have they shipped a vehicle with a proven catastrophic flaw like the Peloton, GM, or Toyota?

Sure Autopilot and FSD are steaming piles of crap, but they require the driver to use them inappropriately. Teslas aren’t spontaneously bursting into flames, having their tires fall off, or eating small children and pets.

I say this as someone who has a 2015 Leaf sitting in my driveway…

The Leaf was a squandered opportunity for Nissan. They had almost a decade head start on everyone else and real world feedback about how EVs were used but did nothing with it. In a space that was rapidly evolving they treated the Leaf like a traditional car with a 5 year refresh cycle and modest annual upgrades.

The redesigned 2018 Leaf landed with a thud. It was a nice upgrade from the earlier generation, but it was as if they designed it in a vacuum or under the assumption that their only competition would the Tesla Model S. Chevy, BMW, and Tesla all had vehicles in a similar price category that were more compelling in a number of ways.

To top it off, they sold enough Leafs to completely exhaust their federal subsidies in the US so any future EVs they launch will have an uphill battle against manufacturers who have yet to ship 300k EVs.

It’s just disappointing.

I wonder how much an individual data breach contributes to crimes like Identity Theft. I can’t imagine everyone involved in the breach had their Identity Stole.

They’re going to strike a deal with Equifax to provide you credit monitoring for 5 years instead (a $100 value!). /s

While I appreciate Nvidia Broadcast and how it presents itself as a camera/mic to be consumed by Apps, it would be nice if these were available as audio/video libraries that any software developer can leverage.

I’d love to see an OBS plug-in that allows me to do background removal as a filter on any source and via hotkeys rather than having to change sources in Broadcast.

Honestly, the car is completely unremarkable in a good way. It’s a glorified golf car that just works. Post pandemic ours just sits in the driveway, it gets maybe 10 miles a month on it. The only issue I’ve had was the 12v battery died and had to be replaced, just like any ICEV.

We lost 2 bars on the battery but it still registers up to 80 miles of range when fully charged.

I had the same experience! I bought it used for around 12K and used it as my daily commuter (50mi/rt) for years. We still have ours and since the pandemic it mostly just sits in the driveway. Apart from a failed 12v battery, it’s been a super reliable and trouble free car. Otherwise it’s completely unremarkable.
