The issue is the complexity of the bespoke design of drive trains. It’s nigh on impossible to design a “one size fits all” or even “fits a majority” of solutions for a conversion kit that isn’t stupidly expensive.

See: Edison Motors. A Canadian heavy haul truck manufacturer startup that is trying to offer electric conversions for commercial light and medium duty trucks.

I prefer Trabant.

The best way to avoid getting into an accident is to see it long before you get there. But situational awareness is not something the vast majority of drivers actually practice or have…

Let’s ignore the lack of crush zones, air bags, seat belts, re-enforced door panels and cabin pillars, for a moment. (The lack of any safety features is why they are mostly illegal to operate on roads in the US.)

How far do you think that roller skate could pull my empty 24,000lbs tandem axle tilt bed trailer? Or even my 4000lbs trailer? On a highway at highway speeds.

I use Phind solving computer problems. It does cite the sources it uses. At least for distro and general Linux issues. So far, it’s been a very good resource when I’ve needed it.

1. No one elected Musk.

2. Tax the hell out of him.

2,204C is for those in Boca Raton and Rio Linda…

They try and use google, which doesn’t tell you anything about the information contained in the book. Or they complain about not being able to find the page they are told to look for.

Yep, students these days have no idea about the back of their books and how useful the index can be and the citations after that.

Even after repeatedly pointing it out, they still don’t make use of it. Despite the index being nearly a cheat code in itself.

As someone who has taught math to students in a classroom, unless you have at least a basic understanding of HOW the numbers are supposed to work, the tool - a calculator - is useless. While getting the correct answer is important, I was more concerned with HOW you got that answer. Because if you know how you got that answer, then your ability to get the correct answer skyrockets.

Because doing it your way leads to blindly relying on AI and believing those answers are always right. Because it’s just a tool right?

So you think a low payed adult worker will either?

Ain’t none of you people ever been inside a packing plant have you?

Do you one better - My mini-desktop is plugged into a monitor with no microphone or camera.

Emacs users laughing at VIM users.

Emacs - A pretty good OS you can use as a text editor.

With a serious head injury you ain’t going back to work in the morning. Not defending the surgeon, but the guy probably might never work again because of the injury. Hell, his whole personality might be changed because of it. And there is no way to know how the operation might have turned out or not.

Just a curious question - Is there any VR sets that work with Linux Distros? I’m not much of a gamer to need or want one. Just want to learn for learning’s sake.

And there is no reason not to either. You would still be looking at the cli in Unix with that attitude.

Don’t sweat “what distro” so much. All the major distros offer the same desk tops. So pick a distro you like and just download the KDE Plasma spin of it and enjoy.

But that would require effort to learn to do something different. And a lot of users are firmly against that notion.

Users complain about changes being made and then they complain that change doesn’t happen enough.

I’ve talked to a fair number of progressives who are perfectly fine allowing firearms ownership based solely on class and wealth. They too, want “gun control” based on class and wealth.
