The concerns for range anxiety are well founded too. I had to rent a car the other day, and the only thing they had available was a Tesla model 3. Aside from the issues Teslas themselves have, the 90 miles I had to travel became an immediate concern because it was in a rural area and the town I went to literally had two chargers, and they were privately owned.

The 280 miles I was quoted as range quickly became 170, despite turning off the heat, not charging my phone, using cruise control at 3MPH below the speed limit, and changing all the settings I could conceivably find to turn down my power consumption. I wound up having to beg a private owner to let me use their charger because what would normally be a simple trip became a massive chore. My other option was waking up hours early to drive to a town 40 miles away where they had a super charger and leaving from there, also just barely making it back to the rental car return.

The time to charge the Tesla on a 220v charger btw was over 5 hours from 48%. Absolutely none of my experience matched that of the advertised and it's completely turned me off electric cars until they can start fixing some of these issues.

I'm making a joke about how if he's ever used printing in Linux, he's likely a "fool with no brain" as it uses CUPS, which is maintained in large part by Apple.

"My Philippina wife" I sincerely hope you see your wife as more than just her ethnicity, because the way you phrased that, and the fact that you can't be bothered to learn the correct spelling of her ethnicity, Filipina, is somewhat concerning.

And yet they straight up ignore one of the biggest cell phone markets by not selling in the US at all.

I'm really failing to see how these two things are related. A chess program and a window manager are two completely different things with wholely different functions.

Road Redemption on Steam is this.

I just beat this game last night, is deserves all the praise it's been getting and more. It feels like a love letter to Chrono Trigger in particular and is extremely well done. The art and level design is absolutely top notch.

Google wave was sold off too, they absolutely do sell some things, just they prefer to take features and ideas to use in other products.

Lineage OS by default comes DeGoogled and works just fine. Both phones I ran it on had absolutely no issues. It must be more niche than I thought though because no one here is talking about it.

Sony phones still do the bootloader and headphone jacks at least. I'm pretty happy with mine.
