A common point of failure is the belt that drives the mechanism, it will deteriorate with time. You can buy the belts off aliexpress for a few cents.

After GPU crypto mining became unprofitable Chinese manufacturers took "mining only" cards, desoldered the GPU and built new graphics cards using the chips. So at least the lower end stuff (RTX6000) could be repurposed like that.

When standalone GPS units for $500 were popular the big car manufacturers were still trying to sell GPS as a $2000 option. We've seen time and time again car companies will charge whatever they can get away with. So i'm very skept

There's probably a point where that stops scaling. Is there any proof a city of 40 million uses less resources per capita than a city of 1 million? 40 cities of 1 million seems preferable because then you can actually get outside the c

I don't think that's right. They make one of the many machines you need for semiconductor manufacturing. The NXP fab in Nijmegen makes simple components on a outdated 140nm+ process with 200mm wafers. Unless there is another fab

This is 750 km from China (going through Russia) and a 2600km trip from China's nearest port. If this isn't safe enough is all of Asia off limits then?

The manufacturer can use better fans that move more air and stay more silent. They can design a better vapor chamber, lay out the PCB in a way that VRMs and RAM gets more cooling. But still all that stuff should not account for more than $3

In addition to being heavy and expensive for the specs it also appears to have terrible aero with the fat frame and triple handlebar supports.

I think it's the plug-in part that is limiting the power. Most of these sets you just plug in to a existing outlet, not wired into the electricity panel. Feeding in 800 watt directly into the circuit allows you to draw more than the ra

Ok but you let that train pass you might lose the connection to the bus at the other end. Or the next train or bus might not be for half an hour. Now you're late to wherever you were going.

I can buy used fridges all day long for €50. I've gotten fridges for free that were still good for years after that. No one wants used white goods. Fridges, washing machines and dishwashers you can pick up below $100 easily.

A 64GB SD card is $4 and should fit the majority of games that fit the "no DRM" requirement. This product is not for me but i would just standardize on 64GB cards. Should be big and fast enough for most example games they show. Fo

PSA (Peugeot/Citroen) seems viable. The rest does seem like a collection of car makers with a bad reputation and a limited/outdated model range.

I meant that if i can get the 3000 km i don't particularly care if it takes 5 minutes or 4 hours to charge the car.

The 5 minute charge would be great but as long as i can get the 3000 km range that makes the recharge time a non issue. Planning trips around charging a car every few hundred kilometers is a hassle, but planning around a monthly recharge ev

The smallest class like the Daihatsu Cuore are already gone. The small cars that are left are significantly larger than the former version that shared the same nameplate. For example the Yaris is a SUV now. Can't really blame the manuf
