This is pretty neat. Out Of Spec a popular EV YouTube channel (well series of channels) did a race, they're known for doing long races, they did one from colorado to vegas back when their HQ was in colorado, they've done EV cannonball run records (they still hold it) and recently they did one called

i wish there was a way for my car to send battery status to google maps on my phone, so i could use google maps on nadroid auto, but it still know my SoC and plan charging stops etc. i love ABRP, its great, but oftentimes i just want to use google maps

oh this just threw me back about 20 years

so gas/boiler man came. we do *not* need a new boiler, that is great news. however the solenoid valves on the hot water tank are ancient and sticking, which is why only 2 of the 3 floors had heat, and intermittently, so those will need replacing, the pump is also pretty old and will need replacing.

i America going to get excomunicated by the pope and come up with their own official sect of christianity like England did with CoE and henry the 8th?

once Citroen Ami's Fiat Topolino's reach around 2 grand on the used market its goign to be hard to justify *not* buying one

last year we heard about Ventiva bringing the smackdown to Frore. and since then practically nothing. Frore isnt perfect, but its like 3rd or 4th gen in products shipping already. i do however want all new cool cooling shit to be real

isn't that just Tinder?

whilst yes, we're all mad about the amount of corpo stuff, AI and just, bleh-ness at CES this year, its important to note that its no longer the consumer electronics show, abbreviated to CES, and it hasnt been for baout 2 years now, the show is just CES and it doesnt offficially stand for anything

yes thats meant to be MWh, not mWh, shut up

found out that in Oct,Nov and Dec we used 4.63mWh of electricity. do not ask me how or why i calculated this.

everytime im in the US for longer time than a few days and get suppliesto cookwith etc, im so fucking surprised at how shitty big grocery stores are in the states

with the doomsday teaser coming out today i wanted to once again post this banger

i dont need it. i dont, i swear

one of the worst parts of genAI is looking for assets in a cartoony style, and genuinely not knowing if its just clip art or a slightly decent genAI creation and not wanting to use either

enough of this 18A, 14a, A16 nonsense, we should have gone to picometers. oh your transistors are 1.6nm? NEIN 160 picometers.

Dell renegged and bought the XPS name back! now if only they will reneg on that keyboard kayout and give us the unewuivocal best looking chassis for the XPS 13 ever back, we can talk

Uber definitely needs a "no Teslas" option. This is for a variety of reasons, but mostly because every Tesla Uber driver I've ever had runs with regen on maximum and they have all the throttle control of an overeager jackrabbit signaling danger.

that is terrifying

sometimes i iwsh i was a lot less ethical and smarter with money back when i was a teenager because current dom would not be as cold as i am now if i had made the investments i nearly did back then

pee tech 2026. cant say i imagined that

i dunno, im pretty happy with my prototype haptic trackpad that the company never asked for back

i wonder when VISA and mastercard are shutting off payment processing for the CSAM bot site?

i'd love to see AMD create an all new CCD, an all Zen Dense Chiplet (these are the Zen Xc, so 4c or 5c) thats smaller than the 8 core CCDs we currently have. we need cheaper CPUs, the cheapest current gen AMD CPU is £250. give us a clock and power limited 8/12 core CPU for under £150

oh gross

the only time i've had it work properly is when each mesh node has ethernet backhaul... which kinda defeats part of the purpose of it

this is the attitude im starting 2026 with it seems

the temperature *inside* my home office. I hate living in a 160+ year old house sometimes

PEBLE ROUND 2?!?! @ericmigi.com what're you trying to do to my wallet man

saw a cheap (ish) Prusa Core ONE on ebay... i dont need it. i dont, my mk3.5 is perfectly fine

me: i guess i can watch the legend of vox machina critical role campaigns whilst i wait for S4 to drop. me: THERE ARE 121 3-4 HOUR VIDEOS ON THIS?!?!??! welp, there goes my free time. at least i can watch things at 2x

www.clicksphone.com/en/communica... is it expensive? absolutely, but my fucking god this is what ive wanted for a while ever since TCL gave up the ghost on the blackberry reboot. a great touch sensitive keyboard, a small screen, swappable backs, a purpose built communicator. Huzzah!

TIL Matt Mercer's wife voices two of the characters i like more in vox machina and the mighty nein. and one ofthe reasons i lvoe the look of VM so much is that the character designer is the guy from DC animated movies and, most importantly for me, Young Justice. i love this fucking group, my god

i dont have any data to back this up, its just annecdotal, but i feel like strain gauges in the bed are a worse and less reliable bed probing solution than strain gauges in the tooldhead. only one of the toolhead gauges ive had has broken, every printer ive had with bed gauges at least one has died

if i won the lottery i wouldnt tell anyone, but there would be signs. [the signs] (www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/...)

My first act as global emperor will be to declare that everything created in the 20th century is now public domain.

not bad for the second year, my small 800w Balkonkraftwerk setup produced a smidgen over half a megawatt hour of electricity just sitting on my grass. im hoping i might be able to install one of those dual axis trackers at some point this year to get it up off the grass as well

"why did this print fail?" "oh, i as printing PC with PLA settings... that'll do it"

Happy New Years friends, i absolutely did not fall asleep hours before midnight, not at all

This may seem overly simplistic but I think it’s kind of obvious as an adult that that you should be able to choose other adults to fuck or not fuck based on any reason you want without being scolded

"Like you" has slowly but surely become one of my most listened to songs in Hazbin Hotel S2, much like "welcome to heaven" from last season, its just so... chirpy, i dunno

a battery bank and solar panel set from anker i reviewed a few years ago for £799 is currently on sale for £249. i still say the AC inverter is too small, but thats a good deal for 512Wh of LFP batteries, a PSW inverter, and MPPT

Rest in peace you absolute legend of an artist

kinda surprised there arent any Phaetus revo nozzles. i'd love a Phaetus Silicon carbide revo nozzle

one of the crazy things about anti-EV (and increasingly anti modern car) comments is that people have next to no concept of time, depreciation and inflation. reviewers will say "the dacia spring is the cheapest EV in the UK at £15k" then someone will comment saying thats not cheap becuase their Kia

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/30649519... this pack has less than 7000 miles on it. my god.

my brother, who is ,shall we say, not a fan of EVs, said somethin along the lines of "what're you gonna do when the big battery runs out" so i just went on Ebay and checked, a secondhand battery for my ioniq is... £1800, with most on the 20-40k mile range... mine currently has 76k miles. im fine

an EV Charger for $29k? im assuming theres already one on Kyle Conner's driveway

minor in the grand scheme of things but big for young me. being picked up and somewhat swadled/cuddled by Martine McKutcheon whilst filming on Spooks was pretty good and then just getting to go have lunch with her and other cast

so i watched all of Vox Machina (or at least all the seasons that are available) and Keyleth was indeed my favourite character. now im watching the mighty nein, and i thought Beau (voiced by the same actress as Keyleth) was goign to me my fave this time around. and then Jester showed up.
