They said the same thing in the 90s about getting Bangalored. Yet all the FAANGs and other startups are still headquartered in the US.

My first IDE was Visual Basic 6, before that it was QBasic which was bundled with the Win95 CD. VB6 was just incredible with what you could glue together so quickly and easily.

Not in Nebraska but in the Texas Triangle, thinking of getting Solar panels and was wondering about hail as well. We get hail here, but haven't seen baseball sized hail yet. Anyone have any insights on this?

Its absurd that Apple decided adding a direct port for a second monitor needs a "Pro" MacBook. My sister was given a M2 and had to use external dongles which then needed DisplayLink to be installed. None of this is necessary.

Bit of an aside, but is there anyone making the absolute barebones EV? Like the Toyota Land-Cruiser of EVs? No self-driving, just four wheels, motor and battery pack with whatever is needed to pass safety and standard regulations.
