I was expecting this to be a way to sideload the apps like in android in windows 11 (since likely the actual software for running them is already in windows 11) but instead it’s just “use an emulator” like you couldn’t already do that in windows 10.

This “solution” has nothing to do with Windows 11.  Any version of Windows can do this.

The numbers came from the video I linked, the math I did on a calculator.

Oh, and you’re right, there are no ill effects at all to getting crude oil out of the ground.

Sure, it’s manual in that you shift into 1 and you’re always at the peak spot in the torque curve

Right...that’s why people stop to use the bathroom and change drivers while their EVs charge and add >100 miles in a 15-20 minute bathroom and meal stop.

I do a couple of 900 mile trips a year with the family. It’s usually 2 5-10 minute stops and 2 30-45 minute stops. With fast charging at each stop and 500 miles of range, I’d never even get nervous.

Yup. THAT should be the headline here. It’s easy for people to dismiss Lucid as being too expensive - the Dream certainly is that. But they are showing that they can beat Tesla both at the top and bottom end of the product range they’ve decided they want to play in (for now). Here’s to them (and their design language)

But you’re already stopping for food and bathroom breaks. I bet you could add 200 miles of range in the time it takes you to do those things. I’m pretty sure a modern fast charger could add 100 miles in the time it takes you to empty your bladder alone.

Just tell him that rental cars still exist.

These arguments are getting ridiculous now.

This EV won’t work for me because my commute is 600 miles each way in the snow towing a 12,000lb trailer.

Motor Trend took the car on a trip from LA to SF, a route with plenty of hills, and it would seem that real world usage comes quite close to the EPA estimate.

The Model S Plaid adds about 200 miles of charge in 15 minutes (13.3 mi per minute)

You choose your car off of your least frequent trip? People with the money for this car are grabbing a flight and a rental. Lucid is obviously not looking at the same segment as the volt. That said the Volt is an under rated car. It’s really very good.

Yearly? You could buy any EV for the other 350 days of the year and rent a car for the annual trip. 

Yeah did that for a wedding in march, Memphis to Jupiter. 18 hours of the possibly the second worst scenery driving there and back. the worst scenery being fucking Kansas. Anyone who pulls that drive on the regular and only stops for gas is fucking lying. Even when I stopped for gas I still spent 15 or so minutes

I read this earlier today on Automotive News, but what’s getting overlooked is that for a whopping $30,000 less than the Dream Range you can get the Grand Touring on 19" wheels and only give up four rated miles of range. And honestly the difference between 800hp and 933hp is basically arguments at the bar.

That may be true - but anyone who drives 400+ miles with one 5 minute gas stop must be driving in a car brimming with piss-filled gatorade bottles.

Agreed. A crossover would make so much more business sense.

Generally, yes. There are clear instructions and most fire departments are proactive and train for this kind of thing.
