It crashes in the mountains and he has to eat the remains of the dead to survive, also zombies because why not.
Elon that you?
To be fair, that cable has at least another foot of stretch before it’s maxed out, and he could back up another foot to boot.
Wait, I thought I was hesitant to purchase a BEV because I’m a climate-hating asshole simpleton.
What do you do in a gasoline car that only has a keyfob and no physical key that has a dead battery?
The irony of Jalopnik pointing out Porsche’s spelling error is delicious.
Another Brit here to confirm that Tunnocks are the manufacturer (or brand name) of one of the available teacake products. (and yes, likely the best, I’ve not tried every single variety).
Tunnocks (down south) are somewhat better known for the Caramel Wafer product. (That’s if they can be found.... in England they’re…
I agree completely but in Daniel’s use case, it’s a rental car. For most common people, they’re not going to be in their normal state of mind while traveling. So, their frustration can be a excused away.
That literally only applies to their laptops and other high powered devices. 20w charging that iPhones support can literally be done with any old fucking usb C cable safely...
That’s half true. Apple did agree to the standard forced on them by EU regulation but they also had to Apple the USB C to their liking. If you look at their UBS A to USB C offerings, the come with some crazy under power specs for the cheaper cable and over spec’d for their high end cable. Apple knows their going to…
He’s a iPhone user. He has no idea that USB C existed until he upgraded this year.
As a Scotsman who grew up about a mile from the Tunnock’s factory I can say I’ve never once heard it refer to as just a “Tunnock”. Always a “Tunnock’s Teacake” which differentiates it from lesser brands of teacake, and also from the other fine snacks they produce - like the excellent Caramel Wafer. In more tenuous car…
Disagree. I like having power-only ports in rental cars in case I don’t always want the phone to connect to the infotainment. I prefer *not* having my phone connected to a rental car, and instead just use earbuds all the time.
usb A, B, and C only represent the connector type. the protocol (usb 2.0, 3.0, 3.2x2, 4, etc.) is what decides how much speed and power is available. hyundai pulled an apple, either for cost saving, or maintaining vehicle charge; they give you the port, but it provides less power/data than expected, much like non-pro…

Seem weird you had no USB-C to USB-A cables. What do you use on the plane when you fly. How about a hotel. I have box full if you want one. Stop blubbering.
I was an automotive engineer at the time this test was being developed. I worked for a major automotive company in R&D and specifically in doors.
