I don’t think the truck will flop. For one, it’s really the only EV truck “easily” available, and if the range is even just “good enough” a lot of people will do the math and decide 75k (especially after tax incentives) isn’t so bad, especially if they can also write it off. I’m not saying it’s going to overtake the…

“Bargain"? I do not think that word means what you think it means. 

Yeah, and people act as if Microsoft will somehow just leave you hanging on updates. I’ve wedged in some sideways updates on computers that were absolutely not fit for modern use except that they had the board that ran the card to interface for a $10,000 detector. Now, certainly, you aren't getting monthly security…

True, I would never pay $5k for an all in one... when I can pay $6k for the parts and some fancy RGB. :)

Time to start designing... may I present the light up "(NO) VACANCY" tattoo!

It’s nice that we are starting to see some personal medical tech with aesthetic value. Love that idea.

Good to see we are keeping it classy with the age discrimination. Not surprising that you also obviously didn’t read the article enough to get that these are surface tattoos. Also, Glow In The Dark tattoo ink has been around for a while now. 

Changed it to Overwhelmingly Positive obviously.

Yes, how DARE Valve boot an obvious troll who is clearly trying to deceive users. What malevolent jerks, policing their own system at the bare minimum level. /s

Most of us got it the first time. Thank you for your service. :)

Steam can’t force a dev to change their name. They don’t own the dev. They have a ban hammer, but not much else. 

I would argue that the gap on cars is closing. Jalopnik has a few die hards who won’t drive anything that won’t drive the long way across Texas on one charge and then take less than ten minutes to fully recharge, but they also don’t recognize that 30 seconds every night and morning to save a $50 trip to a gas station…

Seriously, what is your problem? He’s attempting to do something good for his own education, he's not some self-righteous zero-emissions zeolite. You, on balance, seem to be some "any attempt at improvement is a personal affront" absolutist. Who are you helping?

Do yourself a favor and actually test drive some EV's and at least one PHEV before you decide. My wife has been commuting with a 60 mile range i3 (it's old, that's not the original range or even close to the current new vehicle range) just fine for three years. We've cut it closer than we liked once or twice, but if…

Ah, here in Seattle, I almost switched because the neighbors like their fiber, but we are up a long driveway and after three attempts resulting in zero successful installs and a lot of hand wringing, I had to pass them up. I may try again in a year, but we pushed the Comcast bill back down for now. 

If all I got was the bill for infrastructure, I wouldn't mind. 

They need to be regulated as a utility. They look like a utility, quack like a utility, and smell like a utility. Also they need to be broken up like Bell was three decades ago. Not that utilities are wonders of consumer goodwill, but it's hard to imagine comcast being much worse. 

Quite well, thank you. I remember 2001, when people were talking about "the cloud" and it seemed both silly and oversold and it has turned out to be neither.

Sounds like you need to embrace some different AI overlords. I have a whole house of smart switches that only ever had to be reset when I switched over to a Hubitat home hub. 

Yeah, I always thought the idea of swappable main batteries was silly, but easily plugged in, safe, modular batteries would be nice, and would be a big deal for some of us. It checks some of those "aspirational" boxes too: if there's a nice spot for extra battery capacity to plug in and sit, then it might be a spot…
