No, not all infinites are the same. For example uncountable infinites are all larger than countable ones.

The Shield is kind of an extreme outlier in today's environment. A device from 2015 that 9 years later is still one of the top tier choices in its (consumer) market is almost unheard of. In fact it's reportedly the currently suppo

I use my Alexa to start my vacuum cleaner (maybe 3-5 times a week), to set timers (about once a week) and to check the temperature outside (less than once a month). I wouldn't pay $1 for this, it's all stuff that my phone can alre

You don't need a dead zone. Just modulate the pedal to whatever level of acceleration you want. The car will either regen a little, use a little power or use next to no power if you're at the perfect inclination. Energy from going

Coasting isn't braking. If you want to coast just don't completely release the accelerator pedal, only up until the point where you're no longer accelerating or braking.

Much like you don't always press the brake pedal all the way down when you want to slow down, don't release the accelerator pedal completely, only the necessary amount. You're 100% in control of how hard OPD braking is.

I feel the opposite: I feel that only people who aren't used to engine braking will not find OPD to be completely natural.

Are you perhaps thinking of the Carrera 4? The T is RWD only.

I had to double check in case they removed it for MY 2024 but they didn't: the GTS comes stock with a manual, the PDK is an option that costs over 3k€. Regarding the joy, I get it but that's why I asked: the GTS comes with the 4.0

Going completely off-topic here but I have to ask: why spend that much for a Carrera T in a world the Cayman GTS 4.0 exists and is superior in virtually everything that matters for a sports car for significantly less?

Just charge the car immediately before getting to their house? You can leave 20min earlier to adjust for that.

I don't think ever before we had significant periods of time where we actually get paid to use energy from the grid due to overprovisioning with renewables. Plenty of times during the past several years I've had negative electrici

The population count is an argument that puts the US in a further negative light: They stand to gain significantly more due to how economies of scale work than a country with only 5 million people does.

I agree with you as that's my reality as well, however the original article is about the US market so the discussion here is for a US context and for them, as far as I understand it, their infrastructure is a lot poorer so the concerns

The whole glass ceilings concept is absurd: just because someone's situation isn't perfect doesn't mean we don't all benefit from pointing out flaws in a given system.

At which point they'll start using hotels, yes. I'm sure this is a cultural thing but I and seemingly everyone around me finds guest bedrooms to be an insanely wasteful concept.

Considering how terrible Sony is, almost Nintendo-level, at making sure their titles are exclusives, bringing them up only makes Microsoft look good by comparison: they have by far the fewest exclusives of the three big console makers.

Single charger is lovely: nowadays whenever I travel I carry a single charger; it charges: my laptop, my work laptop, my phone, my noise cancelling headphones, my wireless iems, my book, my watch.

I agree with your point completely but that use case is an edge case, would it be worth it regulating all phone design in order to address such a specific scenario? Such use cases are normally handled by creating specialty products.
