Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•Battery costs have declined by 99% in the last three decades, making electrified transport a realityEnglish
2·25 days agoFirst you make batteries economically viable alternatives to fossil based energy sources.
Friendly reminder batteries are not an energy source they just store energy and stabilize the grid
They find an abandoned station full of nonperishable food supplies and he becomes the person in charge of supply rationing.
Also I think at one point they pull the “I tried, but I just can’t seem to lose the weight” card and kinda give up.
But most importantly, if he lost a ton of weight those time travel episodes would be tough to track!

4·1 month agoI could very well be wrong but I thought I read that the phone with hardware that supports gOS isn’t out yet, so you can’t (yet) get a Motorola but you will have more options soon.

I wouldn’t bank on it. The recalls are covered under warranty though, just take it in.

Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•What do people think of the Kia EV6?English
4·1 month agoHave an EV6, love it, AMA. Only thing I don’t like is the stupid handles. They’re dumb. Really dumb.
I have had 1 issue with it not caused by outside forces, and that was the ICCU recall which Kia replaced on their own dime.
Battery has held up over the last few years, no sign of early aging. It charges fast and handles well.
If you have your choice of model years know that in the US they swapped from CCS to NACS (Tesla) charging standards recently so check what charging infrastructure is available near you. Good UL Listed adapters that won’t start a fire are a couple hundred bucks, so weigh that against upgrade costs.
In the US, Tesla superchargers are more abundant on long drives but charge a little slower than Electrify America or similar CCS chargers.
If I were to buy again I’d probably stick with it but damn it would be tempting to get something where I dont have to constantly re-explain the handles to every person who rides in it. That may be a dealbreaker on its replacement.

Electric Vehicles@slrpnk.net•What do people think of the Kia EV6?English
8·1 month agoThey did a big recall like a year ago? (the day mine died on me…). It impacts all EV6 and Ioniq 5 models from like 2023-2025 (more info)
Ask your dealer if there are any active recalls on the vehicle. A reputable dealer should have already fixed it because it was recalled under warranty.
The EV6 and Ioniq 5 are basically the same car under the chassis so they have generally the same strengths and weaknesses.

Buy it for Life@slrpnk.net•Work/commuting backpack, ideally not a US companyEnglish
8·2 months agoKanken backpacks are 10/10 on the style front and SUPER lightweight, but those straps are a joke IMO.
Got one as a lightweight camera bag with similar insert, it’s perfect for short trips, would be a great commuter bag as long as your backpack is off for most of your commute.
Can easily toss it in the car and wear it from the parking lot to my desk. Would have died in college wearing it with a laptop and textbook walking for miles around campus every day.
For longer wearing those straps will drag you down.

2·2 months ago+1 for the Skule.
Fits everything I need, water bottle pockets are actually large enough to be useful (surpassingly difficult to find), and doubles as a hiking pack thanks to it’s built-in bladder suspension loop and hole for a tube at the top.
I have it in black and my wife got jealous and got it in green.
Looks great full or empty. I take it everywhere - work, travel, hiking, you name it.

61·2 months agoHere’s the problem - book bans swing both ways.
Whatever justification you use to get books like this out of the library will inevitably be contorted by conservatives to ban books on healthy transitioning.
IDK what the solve is here, would love to hear folks thoughts. Move it to the fiction section? Staple a disclaimer inside the cover?










One key factor for wildlife bridged is they need to be quite a bit wider than regular bridges. This one is almost square spanning 8 lanes of freeway.
The extra width is critical for wildlife because they have to perceive it as normal terrain, with dampened road noise, and it needs lots of ways to feel like you can sneak through otherwise no one would use it because they would feel too exposed.
