2 car home makes having one foot in and the other out easy. I was convinced when doing the math and that battery cooling/heating tech made it to the mainstream. It’s why I never considered a hybrid or the leaf.

When I first got my EV, the DC fast charge rates weren’t that high. I was seeing an average around 35 cents/kWh. A near 50% jump in price now has me planning trips in advance not for just charging stops but a cost analysis in case it’s cheaper with gas (fuck Illinois electricity rates). The plan is still to get my wife an EV when it’s time to replace the Traverse. I hope that DC rates won’t be so bad for long trips by then so I don’t have to hear about it. She’s still unconvinced despite our summer vacation being done with entirely level 2 chargers on the way down and at our destination, then 1 DC charge to get back home.

Well, yeah. My first interaction with the internet was a friend’s technical savvy dad who had compuserve.

yeah, I’d really like a thing like jellyseerr that’s easy to hook into the *arrs for browsing for suggested/popular/new music.

Funny thing, I tried using newsgroups for their intended purpose after rediscovering that Thunderbird is also a newsreader. The amount of topics is large (and really old), but the ones I checked out haven’t had many updates. Though i admit I haven’t been brave enough to dive into the alt. group yet. It reminds me of the internet before the web.

15¢/kWh. Makes driving an EV really economical. I did a day trip last week and had to charge at a DC fast charge and it was 56¢/kWh. At that price it would’ve been cheaper to drive my wife’s Traverse. For reference the break even for me at $3/gal is 40¢/kWh (3.5 mi/kWh). eMPG is a joke. The real measurement is miles/dollar.

except SpaceX is selling for all we know to be military starlink with extra capability to the US goverment.

ReVanced patching will become more common

time to demand apps in other repositories. Bonus if it’s f-droid compatible

I’m no Elon fan, it certainly got worse shortly after he took over. You’re looking at Twitter through rose colored glasses if you think the last half of Jack’s Twitter run was anything but a disaster

It was also already gone to shit before Elon took over. Jack did most of the damage to Twitter and he’s why I never signed up for bluesky.

Also, ingredients to a recipe aren’t covered under copyright law.

How much is Jack involved? He was the reason Twitter went to shit to begin with.

And to be fair, there’s a lot more terrestrial things that causes GPS interference. I work with a guy that runs a boosted CB radio and it causes havoc with GPS signals. EM geometry is really interesting on how signals get encoded. It was fun studying how CDMA and GPS work.

TrueNAS is switching apps from kubernetes to docker. Might wait till October if wanting to spin up something new. I’ve got to figure out how to migrate my TrueCharts apps or find the equivalent when the time comes to upgrade

That was Alaska

I mean my question was addressing the scope of the jurisdiction Texas can have over a server in another state. It feels like the onus is on them (or the ISPs in Texas) to block that server

If you don’t operate in Texas, do you have you comply? Is the easy fix is don’t have your servers be in Texas?

I remember my first serious build, blue acrylic case with as much black light reactive components I could get

In my defense, the conventions are usually just rah rah speeches on an outcome already settled. There’s usually no reason to watch either major party’s convention much less pay attention to their rules.
