"This is such a euphemism to pretend that you’d like to wait two hours at a refueling station." There is virtually no EV sold on the market today that takes two hours to charge to 80% at a HVDC charger. "I get it; I like EVs

So, to be clear, and to really drive this point home. Gaming on Linux is absolutely viable and practical it's just the efforts are sunken by bad developers who refuse to enable compatibility or figure out a better solution. "games

I can't speak for all the products, but from what I have heard it's pretty bad. Pay close attention to the shitposts on UC, they regularly get taken down but have some interesting information in them.

It is likely a fraction of a fraction of an already small fraction. Textiles, tires and food packaging are the biggest contributors. It has yet to be proven that microplastics are directly linked to any harm, it is mostly unknown. If you ca

The reason why the price is so high is due to megascalers, production is gearing up more and more since it looks like this is in for the long haul. I would imagine in 5-10 years there will be cheaper prices for consumers.
