Lka1988

laughs in Linux

This vehicle is clearly meant as an errand truck, not a roadtripper. It wasn’t that long ago when base model work trucks didn’t have a radio or speakers installed.

Quit getting pissy over something that doesn’t even exist yet.

This is my ideal build: https://www.slate.auto/share/5VXBMW

I could barely make it out, but the tires on this build here are 255/70R17, which are effectively 31" tires. Great size. I was just talking to my wife last night about how I’d absolutely DD an older Jeep Cherokee XJ, slightly lifted on 31s (I used to have a 1998 XJ just like that), but the fuel economy would be abysmal at best. This thing, however, optioned with the big battery, would cost me roughly $10 at most to charge from empty to full, which is really nice.

The lack of AWD is a bummer, but not entirely a deal-breaker. I’d absolutely rock this little thing on some of the local 4WD trails.

It’s smaller than the Hyundai Santa Cruz; my dad has one of those, and it’s not very big (smaller than a Ranger).

This truck is positively tiny.

I want one.

Luckily you can add a hardtop and seats (and airbags!) to the rear to make it into an SUV. Appears to be a modular design.

I would seriously consider this little thing if 1) it actually happens at that price point and 2) retains this modular design (lmao)

Though I would prefer an AWD option. I do like to take my vehicles off-road…

Speakers are optional. I built one on their site. Speakers are available.

Glad to be of assistance. May I offer you TOTO’s Extra Platinum Plus subscription tier that helps handle non-standard bodily waste, at only $7.99/mo for 24 months…

New ovens will only reach 280°F. But if you subscribe to LG Baking™ Plus™ plan for only $5.99*/mo, you can unlock up to 340°F for all of your essential^† baking needs! But wait, if you subscribe to LG Baking™ Plus™ Premium tier for an additional $8.99**/mo, you can unlock up to 425°F and a 20 minute timer!

^* introductory rate for new customers only, 2 year contract required, promotion ends after 1 year and increases to $24.99/mo billed annually^

^** promotional rate only, 5 year contract required, promotion ends after 2 years and increases to $89.99/mo, billed annually^

^† “essential” is defined as items that qualify as food items that require up to 325°F. upon sensing electronic items (batteries, circuit boards, and other non-food items), the contract will be terminated immediately and any funds allocated will be forfeited to LG and its subsidiaries^

I can see 10-20GB/month for a single person being fairly reasonable if they steam music or something a lot while out and about.

Which a lot of people do. And videos. And play games.

My household usage is well over 2TB/mo. It’s not unrealistic to expect individual usage to be fairly high outside of the house.

Because they can. I have the same gripe.

My wife prefers her Macs. She’s got the infamous A1706 MacBook Pro (I’ve already had to fix a few things on it), and a 27" iMac from the last run of Intel based machines.

But she does recognize the walled garden for what it is, and her seeing me effectively make my machines do what I want is making her want an Android phone 😅

So glad I built my 5800X3D/7900XTX system when I did. It’s got plenty of horsepower for the next several years for my usage.

Seriously. This dude is delusional.

The law firm going after Tesla for this offered to represent him via a class action, and this idiot has the gall to ask the law firm for payment?

The world would be better off if his Tesla self-drove itself into a wall. Ideally with him inside.

“Yes, the planet got destroyed. But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders”

I’ve been on Firefox for a very long time because of shit like this. I run FF on my phone as well. Might look into Fennec.

A sensible response. Windows has its pros, and Linux has its cons. I personally don’t care for Windows anymore, but that’s because I grew up with Linux in the home alongside Windows, ultimately chose Linux despite the cons.

TIL what “Air” means in the brand name.

That’s all a NAS has ever been, just a PC that specializes in storage. “NAS” isn’t a specific product, either - it’s whatever hardware you set up to function as such. My own NAS is a 2014 Mac mini running OMV (Debian 12 based) with a 4-bay locking drive dock attached to it. Works great.

I took images of my gaming PC drives (500GB, 2TB) onto a 4TB spinner, then shoved that spinner into my NAS’s dock. With 2 minutes of point and click configuration, I can access those images from my gaming PC’s new Linux install over the network to copy whatever data I might need. Easy peasy. No Synology needed for that.

Short term profits reign king once again

Gotta make the imaginary money line go up somehow
