Electric bikes work quite nicely in this scenario. Beautiful cooling breeze with minimal, if any, effort.

The National Film Board is totally free, and you can watch the Log Driver’s Waltz anytime you please!

Yeah, I did a graph series on this once upon a time for my 2018 Model 3 LR RWD on Reddit and that’s pretty much what I found. However, this vintage has a resistive PTC heater not a heat pump, which isn’t great for efficiency.

One third of Americans (non voters) were happy to watch whilst another third (MAGAts) attempts to murder ~~the other third~~ everyone.

The tariffs are being explicitly selected to avoid harm to Canadian consumers (e.g. on items for which there are available and suitably priced alternatives) and on items which create the most effective political pressure.

Except without the living wages, public works infrastructure investments, emphasis on education, and tax rates!

My Model 3 shipped with front facing RADAR, and continued to make use of it until a software update disabled it. That was some time in 2024, I believe. New Teslas (forget when it started) all omit the front facing RADAR and the ultrasonic parking sensors. I believe the Model X still retains some ultrasonic sensors for its “falcon wing” doors to avoid obstructions.

Not sure about the value of LiDAR, but their inability to integrate ANY multimodal sensors (RADAR or even SONAR parking sensors which are no longer on ANY of their vehicles) points to either an unwillingness/inability to solve the engineering problem of integration, penny pinching, or both. I bought a demo Model 3 in 2019 (it’s a 2018) which has ultrasound sensors (for now? It used to also have RADAR) and as our family has grown a Y would be a much better fit for us. But no chance I’m buying another Tesla.

Given (in our house, anyway) cover songs don’t count, I’m going to make a ruling that as a derivative work, your Wham!-ageddon streak remains safe…for now

You may want check out Infuse for the AppleTV. I have found it fixed every audio drift and video jitter concern that I’ve ever had with Plex or Jellyfin.

You can point it either directly at an SMB share, or a library hosted on Jellyfin or Plex. The advantage of this is it caches the artwork in the library, not on the AppleTV, because the AppleTV will periodically flush its local cache, leading to long re-fetching times and waiting to watch things.

I have no recommendations for the Chromecast.
