You people are underselling yourselves.

A thousand a night, indexed to inflation. First year in advance, and then payment every morning after that, with the condition that if you miss one night, it's all over.

I think the ongoing payment adds a bit of spice to it. Do you set a goal of X dollars and stop then? Will you be ordered by the court to continue wearing it for alimony for your gold digging ex wife that you met in the first year? Will the temptation of easy money for minor suffering slowly drive you insane? Time will tell.

Thought process goes like this:

"What's slowing us down, hardware-wise? These lidars are expensive and a pain in the ass. Let's disrupt the status quo and ditch them and just use cameras. People drive around just fine with just stereo vision, after all. It might be hard but once we do it we'll be way ahead of the competition."

People don't give precise percentages though when surveyed. They might round to typical fractions like 1/4, 1/3, or they might round to 10 or 20 percent.

Nobody is saying "hmm, I estimate that it would be approximately 37 percent".

Of course the wisdom of the crowd does wonders for smoothing those coarse estimates, but still, if the crowd is +/- 10 of the real percentage value, I'd say they're pretty much on the money.

Anyway, Poland, wtf.

The depth of the water was about the height of the wheels. Which I'm guessing is past 400mm.

Hm. Better check your diff/transfer case oils just in case before things get expensive. Outlanders don't have high mounted diff breathers so you might have got some water in there.

"I have no mouth and I must scream" could end up being a plausible way to spend eternity.

I was thinking that I would have to switch to bsd.

Finally the year of Hurd on the desktop?

Not really, it's just phrased differently to the usual signup pitch, they're putting in a middle ground between full "premium" subscribers (whatever that is) and public access with tracking and ad metrics.

Companies need revenue to operate. They get that revenue from advertising data and selling ad slots, or subscriptions. Whether they actually cease all tracking and ad metrics when you subscribe is something I'd doubt though, and that could be a case for the legal system if they didn't do what they claim.

Personally, this behaviour is the point where I would not consider the site to be valuable enough to bother with.

"ChatGPT, write a letter to the community that says I am looking after this issue with untrusted BLOBs and it is of high importance but do not be specific about anything."

For reference, temps at cradle mountain are still a few degrees below zero overnight.

Soooo, you know, it's nice to feel connected to nature by going barefoot, but shoes are probably a good idea.

Mainly the issues are about providing ~600 kilowatts for 8 minutes to charge your typical size EV battery.

A row of 5 chargers of that size soaks up 3MW if they're all in use, and that's not something that can be quickly or easily shoehorned into a suburban electricity grid.

It's about 500 houses worth of electricity usage, for comparison. For just 5 fast chargers.

Not to say it's impossible, but infrastructure doesn't come cheap, and so it'll cost quite a bit to cram that 80 percent charge into your car's battery.

You are flashing the chip directly so apart from inadvertent short circuits and such if it doesn't work you can just keep trying until it does.

As for wire length it all depends on how fast they clock the SPI bus when flashing. You'll probably be able to get away with 20cm or so without difficulty , I've driven SPI displays with that kind of wire length before.
