Toyotas plan seems to be bluff until this EV thing blows over.

Exactly. They should be viewing content providers as their suppliers. They supply the product that the ISP is selling to the customer.

They should be viewing big sites as suppliers, not customers.

They sell data to customers. They get that data from the tech companies. You don't bill your suppliers for moving their product.

TIL, Threads didn't have a website.

Yet another case of Not an EV thing, its a Modern Car thing.

these posts always bring the fear that its going to be another heated seat subscription.

I don't have a problem with the concept of paying for a service that is actually a service. online connectivity or map updates or whatever. Do something for the money that im giving you.

What I don't like is being told I have to pay a monthly fee to use hardware I already bought from you.

Bluecruise is kinda bridging the gap here, but they better think long and hard about what needs to be a paid fucking service.

thats bad for orgs that mostly run windows or something, if they need a limited number of linux boxes

I wonder how much they paid for that

got a source on that?

A serious bug in a major component in a common operating system.

Its certainly more newsworthy than some of the stuff that shows up on here.

have a look at this image. https://thedriven.io/wp-conten...

the AC charging part is the top.

DC charging uses the comms pins from the AC connector and adds 2 big connectors for DC power

start of the 3rd paragraph

"The company joins Ford, GM, Volvo, Polestar, and Rivian in adopting Tesla’s connector, which is rapidly becoming the de facto charging standard in North America and Europe. "

This article is wrong. It says that NACS is becoming the standard in Europe. THIS IS ENTIRELY FALSE. This change is only happening in the US. Everyone INCLUDING TESLA uses CCS2 in the EU.

So when are they going to burn the fucking government to the ground?

they were getting their jobs done in less hours before.

sounds like efficiency to me.
