Very informative. you may find this video of interest.

What is it with wildlife and Subarus? Do they smell like food? Do they let the smell of food out better than other cars? Are Subaru drivers just in the habit of hording food in them?

I’ll bet you gallons to donuts they’re sold out by the time I get there.

Reasonable question deserves a reasonable answer. Full disclosure, I’m a qualified Apple tech who until very recently spent all day every day repairing their equipment. I rarely comment on Apple stuff as I have no desire to rebuff by half-arsed journalism (across the board in tech, not just about Apple) and partisan…

A former barman in Soho, London, where there’s a high percentage of tourists. I would advise the customer of their faux pas, but if they kept doing it, all bets were off.

Although I don’t need to use them that often, the apps I use do show occupancy. The real issue is that until very recently with Plug and Charge (in the EU) that each charger company needs its own app / RIF key chain and the apps are almost universally crap.

Sun Microsystems. Fond memories. By way unnecessary confirmation your comment, some of my colleagues were deeply talented.

I’ve always thought this establishment might be worth a try…

If I remember correctly the state of Victoria, Australia does have a power to weight ratio limit for drivers who have just passed thier test and are displaying “P-plates” (provisional license). Similar idea.

Hatchback, badge would indicate that it should be quick. The Aston Martin Cygnet.

I remember the puppet satire programme Spitting image doing a skit about Nigel Mansel coming in to change from his dry weather moustache to his wet weather moustache.

I was thinking that this was the designer’s inspiration.

I’m going to put a vote in for my current home of Helsinki. Generally the public transport is well scheduled, on time and clean. I’ve lived in London, there’s lots of public transport, but as others have pointed out the infrastructure is old and it shows. There’s vandalism and some of the night buses can be dangerous.…

Stop please, I’m tearing up! Seriously, good for them.

Limiter! You darn newfangled kids. In my day you had to listen for valve bounce.

Much as I respect the engineering of the B-52, a glider pilot I knew one quipped that they can only take off because the earth is round.

Firstly, thank you for the correct analysis of Lightning / USB-C.

Just because you mentioned Scammell and it brought up a great memory. Their factory used to be in south-west Guildford and they would occasionally send out a newly built chassis out for a test drive on the A12. I was lucky enough to see this a couple of times on the way home from school. A bare chassis with a chair…

As I’ve quipped elsewhere “Honey, come quick, bring the Pantone swatches! I’ve just passed a stool that’s a perfect colour for the new Porsche!”

In the EU Teslas use CCS, just FYI. So yes, there’s no confusion over EVs using all kinds of different plugs.
