Combined with the cost of labor it is actually $17,000 which is slightly higher than the cost of just replacing the battery without factoring in bulk discounts.

I mean i am assuming 100% it is a crock of shit but just throwing out possible ideas as a software engineer is what I enjoy as a devils advocate.

So the only thing I could think of is if they had some software that reduced charging rates while on level2/3 chargers since that would degrade the battery slower than having them charge at full speed but I’m kind of amazed that they thought spending $680k on that made any sense when just replacing the batteries in…

makes sense marvels avengers is leaving the service since the game is shutting down soon. there are also a lot of new games in this list that I definitely want to play.

Chunky soup is the absolute worst, can’t really sip it from a cup due to the chunks so it has to be in an open container to eat and since all the heavy bits sink to the bottom of the container you also need a spoon to fish them up.

That has not been my experience at all, insurance if anything went down with the EV. Regenerative braking means you start braking immediately on taking your foot off the gas so you have a better chance of reducing the speed of the impact in a sudden stop scenario. there’s also the fact that the regen brakes simply…

Honestly yeah, if someone really doesn’t want to watch the animated shows just watch a recap video on youtube. there are hundreds of them for Ahsoka already. 

hopefully we get what we got for the MCU shows and they release a set of recap videos to catch up new viewers. that being said my assumption is there will be some exposition at the start of the series to catch people up on the minimum needed to enjoy the show. it’s sort of like how if you know about what happened in…

Honestly if I order this I am going to swap the pepperoni with chicken and hot honey chicken is the goat.

So let me get this straight, you drive 18+ hours on a regular basis while also being able to afford two homes in two separate states? why? at that point just fly it’s got to be cheaper than that amount of mileage calculating time lost, fuel, and maintenance.

“The problem with owning an EV is the cost/payments, maintenance, insurance, etc. goes up significantly to the point it’s almost the same as owning any other gasoline vehicle. So to say you could afford to rent a road-tripper is subjective.”

ah yes because my 3DS totally didn’t have a battery that I replaced myself with a double capacity one using a standard screw driver and requiring nothing else to be removed. that definitely didn’t happen and it totally isn’t sitting in the next room.

Yep, if they can find a way to connect an award to a new property they will:

“From the Secondary Boom Operator that brought you the Academy Award Winning Last of Us.”

I mean is it a crutch really though? Designing living inanimate characters is already harder than just doing standard people since you have to figure out how they are supposed to walk and talk and do things while being limited by the fact that they are meant to be stationary. so I wouldn’t call it a crutch due to just…

huh so it’s more of an alice in wonderland situation? interesting.

it isn’t that Activision restored the servers they fixed a bug on the servers that left them broken for years since microsoft made a change to xbox live to bring everything into a single network about 5 years ago. so all the call of duty titles are now working online again. They were always working on PS3.

out of curiosity what do you do that requires range greater than 250 miles and how often do you do that? I swapped to an EV over 18 months ago and I have yet to have a single instance where I felt limited by the range.

the licenses are attached to your account so you can access them regardless of if they are downloaded or not. the same is true if you let your sub lapse and then come back 5 years from now and resub. you gain access to all your games again.

I hadn’t even caught that but you are right. Ultimate has online listed but console does not. good catch!

Of course but so far that isn’t the case and at this point the writing is on the wall for consoles going the way of the dodo. Then exclusivity is less about what console you are on and instead which subscription you have.
