I occasionally use my steam deck as a desktop replacement but I'm always relieved to go back to my windows 10 desktop, for two reasons: 1) No native Onenote app. Nothing else checks all the boxes I need for a note taking app - easy eno

And somehow still an improvement over the last one, who had a painfully small context window that would randomly clear.

Where did you end up going? I have some savings and would like to retire early, and getting health insurance is an impediment to that. Need somewhere that doesn’t require a work visa and is a good place to raise a family. I have enough to d

It's a pleasure to drive and it has been great for what I use it for. Mostly family stuff but the occasional camping trip in the middle of nowhere. A Rivian R1S probably would have been more practical for me due to the 3 rows of seats.

OP here. Yeah I talk about them a lot. All of the other topics I could talk about, I seldom have original content to contribute. All of the interesting things get said pretty quickly for software engineering, living in a west coast city in

The CT isn't great as a large SUV replacement for moving people, because it lacks a 3rd row. It's also not a great ICE truck replacement due to EV trucks having terrible range when towing. But as a tech bro who doesn't do &qu

As a cybertruck owner who likes to drive deep into national parks, I'm optimistic about this. Tesla covers the big highways really well with their superchargers, but where they fall short are those adventure/outdoors destinations.

Ah, didn’t realize we were already due for our weekly anti-Tesla article. Gotta give everyone their opportunity to make barely topical rants about Elon.

Between the self-hating Americans and the smug Europeans, there were a lot of people who just had to voice their displeasure.

Also, watching videos full screen and scrubbing around in the video requires backing out to the smaller view. Then you get to fast forward/rewind. Then you have to tap to watch full screen again. Everything about this experience has go

Maps may have had lots of improvements but they keep relentlessly cramming more and more ads and sponsored content into it. I now actively avoid using it as much as possible. Which is directly relevant to the topic being discussed here. Eng

If there’s anything uniquely attributable to Tesla/Cybertruck I’m sure it will be breathlessly reported on soon.

My highly customizable split mechanical keyboard. Not naming the product because it's my fault that I regret it. It's very high quality and does exactly what it claims to do, and I'm sure many users are happy with it. It cost

I set the ambient light in mine to neon purple and play a synthwave playlist. Definitely a fun mood to drive with on dark city streets.

Even Bellevue doesn't seem to be doing the optimal thing. They're losing students and having to close schools as well. Meanwhile, their Chinese immersion school has a huge waitlist. Every Chinese parent and many others wants to se

(Anecdote alert) Most of my Asian friends (mostly first-generation immigrants) have Teslas. Same with many Asians (East & South) at work. The politics don't even register, so the evaluation is purely based on utility. Based on that

I'll answer this in good faith if you're willing to listen! Am a happy CT owner. I paid an amount that is in line with a "fully loaded F150" according to a google search. I consider the two vehicles fairly comparable bot

I’m happy that you were able to work around the state’s horrible treatment of your gifted child, by throwing money at the problem. I’ll probably have to do the same with my children in my Seattle suburb. The real victims are the kids whose

CT owners have to have thick skins when interacting online so I chose to take it as good-natured ribbing :) It has been a legitimately awesome purchase for me so it’s pretty easy to be positive.

CT owner here. Maybe I’m just more boring than the usual person who gets this truck, but my reasoning for getting one was a lot more simple than this. “My Teslas have been great, this one looks cool, my family can benefit from having a truc

Yeah my truck has been running bare this whole time and I don’t plan to change that. I’ve parked it near a house by the ocean for days on end so it probably got some salty condensation on it.

It has been terrible! I’ve been asked to transport large items for friends, and had to deal with excited children wanting to take pictures with it. When there was an extended power outage recently I didn’t get the chance to have the “real”

I think that story turned out to be media sensationalism. I’ve owned one for over half a year, in the distinctly not dry PNW. No rust at all.

Everyone’s giving their anecdotes of “no not every Tesla owner loves them” so I’ll give my own. I’ve owned a 3, a Y, and now a cybertruck. These cars are awesome. We had a “bomb cyclone” last week in the PNW that took out power for half a m

Mine has two physical recalls active, but they’re not serious so I haven’t scheduled any maintenance yet. Unlike my Honda civic a couple of decades ago which had an airbag that was killing people. That one I got taken care of quickly.

I'm grateful for my FAANG job because, despite my lack of intelligence, I'm able to make enough money to provide a comfortable life for my family and save up for early retirement.

And you still don't escape having to go to a gas station every few weeks, and maintenance twice a year. Those 10 or so hours per year don't seem like a lot but after having enjoyed EVs for 6 years now, that's the one of the m

Oops. I looked at my installation and it's indeed a HA integration (HomeKit Bridge), not HomeBridge.
