Holy bourgeoise, batman! Just befriend a rancher. We are all compost in training, it’s not that hard

e: fr tho, nothing illegal about just getting dropped in a hole as-is on private property most places

We called it a graveyard, still works lol

You know how when you were a kid you’d mix all the flavours from the soda fountain?

Heck yeah, plenty of room for batteries down low under the bed and it’d help out with the mini truck achilles’s heel of poor traction unloaded. I’ve thought about a conversion like that a lot too, rwd only would be easy

I’ve been seeing a lot of weird culture war coverage around this, even more than usual these days. Big fan of cheap, simple, accessible technology and tools. Cars are tools. Less components and less complexity means they are cheaper to produce and maintain. Bring back the econobox, the car I’m hype for is the electric equivalent of a 94 Corolla

This guy thinks he’s a “customer”

I hate hate haters

Great question op. Waluigi definitely fucks, makes zero sense

Zip it, snitch!

My hope is that the size/voltage standard lasts forever while traditonal alkaline pile chemistries become obsolete and fade away. Seems like that’s kinda what’s happening too, love seeing all the rechargable AA fans in this thread :)

Fun fact: amp hours are a measurement of discharge over time… I can probably explain this better with an example actually. 48v100ah is four times the capacity of 12v100ah, they can both put 1 amp for 100 hours but at different voltages that’s a different amount of… power? Energy? I always get them mixed up. Anyways the AA guys are 1.5v vs the ~3.7v of a phone battery, so the same amp-hour measurement is a little less than half as much juice. Hope that helps, I’m a little stoned tonight lol

I don’t know the science and have never heard those claims, but I do know critters and they sure are friendly. I would say the single easiest critter to pet, right up there with deer. They are absolutely aware that no one wants to eat them and being cute gets em fed

Fucked up if true

All it takes to do your own research is some cat food, they very much are lol. They’re smart and adaptable and fun to be around, great lil buddies

My assumption wasn’t that they learned on the fly, it was that they were trained on previous interactions. Eg the team developing them would use data collected from interaction with model v3 to train model v4. Seems like juicy relevant data they wouldn’t even have to go steal and sort

Can you help correct this for me? Don’t you feed them valuable training data and exposure to real world problems in the process of using them?

15 years ago you were naive enough to believe their bullshit and public perception was still important to their success. “Embrace, extend, extinguish” isn’t healthy participation in open source. Think M$ was the one who actually stated things that way, but google was absolutely playing the same game

My friend, have you considered cleaning the valve ~once every 10 years as opposed to beating it monthly? It’s not hard to do!

Brakes are obviously essential, cruise control isn’t mandatory, lighting doesn’t require a single pcb. Wipers can be pretty simple but are already one of the more expensive/annoying things to fix on a car, a mandated screen (and inevitable infotainment system along with it) to make up for lack of visibility over a mandated high beltline is just… not something I want to deal with. And you know the surveillance state’s gonna tap the feeds from those millions of cameras and stick us with the bill for the hardware to do it, way too juicy source of data not to
