It’s a “bring it on and we will reflash the software” update. Can’t be done over the air. So far only affecting 107 cars according to GM. We will see if that number gets larger.

I kinda feel bad for whomever is selling this — it looks like it was probably their dream home.

Sounds like something the political parties should be offering education in. “Come to our shindig, have some free bbq, and learn how to vote using current voting machines and mail in ballots! All ages welcome!”

.gov.uk actually exists. So yes, countries outside of the US use .gov.

https://legislation.gov.uk

https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/

.gov (.gov.us) is used in the US to distinguish between commercial sites and sites run by state, federal, and local government institutions. It helps cut down on fraud. There are a few fucked up government sites in some states that use.com because ICANN isn’t doing their fucking job.

There’s also .mil for military sites. And .net for internet service providers. These were the original oldie domains. I’m not opppsed to adding .blog to the list, but I despise all of these confusing random cash grab domains that ICANN approves these days. “.social” is really just an org, and “.biz” is really just a com.

How about we just go back to .edu .gov .com .org?

Hmmm. His appearances at Trump rallies are starting to make a little more sense.

It’s interesting that they’re concentrating so much on this now. Most lithium car batteries last at least 10 years if not longer. Not many EVs have reached that point yet. Maybe older Nissan Leaf and Prius models? And after that, these batteries still have enough juice left to be used for power back up installations. At end of life they are finally ready for actual tear-down recycling.

Maybe Nielsen data will finally be accurate for a change.

This sounds like a great way to get your show booted from the back catalog and put into the “vault”.

Was just going to mention that the rejected themes are often better than the ones used. There’s also an alternate of Quantum of Solace that’s pretty good.

Proliferation of bots ≠ popular.

If that’s the case, then why does the wireless keyboard have the port on the back?

Most computers go into a deep power saving mode when they aren’t in use. Far less than a light bulb or power brick.

“When a fleet manager decides to send their organization’s electric vehicles home with employees for charging, the next question is how to properly reimburse for home electricity use.”

I had no idea what the headline was about until I read that in the story.

Only themselves to blame. At least they have the Prius.

“640k is enough for anyone.”

The military had a similar problem with fitness apps for a while.
