https://weatherflow.com/ is also good. I pay for their iKiteSurf product as a kitesurfer and it works decently well once you understand what "16 knots" at one spot vs another really means out on the water.

It’s funny that we went through that but now have 4 different EV plugs that are standard and widely deployed: - Tesla (AFAIK cannot be adapted to charge a SAE J1772 car) - SAE J1772 (what my car, a PHEV has) - CCS (I think this adaptable to

Yep, the whole “both the source and the sink are capable of 90W PD but for some reason agreed to only do 45w on a cable that also supports 100w PD” is fun too. I just wish I could buy a compact GaN charger that could charge a 16” M1 MBP at

The looming sense of existential dread is real. I only hope that the end is swift and painless for most. Also, the first thing folks who learn to survive in the world after “the event” will probably do will be to raid these bunkers or just

I've had CCs stolen because DMV + FasTrak required CC info and can't use PayPal. PayPal / Shop are great because they don't share your actual CC info with the merchant, only a one-time token for that specific transaction

Too bad that the Rohloff setup alone is like $1600, and the non-electric bikes with them tend to be >$5000. That Santos Cross Lite with the Lauf suspension fork does look pretty trick though. They have a helpful bike finder, though lots
