I can't find any reference to this. Not saying it hasn't happened, I just don't see it on the internet. A link would be useful.

I've had Linux kill a motherboard (would boot, but fans and sensors didn't work so it would overheat and crash pretty quickly) setting up lm_sensors.

Wait, no electric windows? That's not a luxury feature since the late 90s.

I like the idea of this (here in Australia there's no inexpensive EV utes), but that's a step too far.

A bit like the ship of thesus

75% is pretty close to a monopoly

I hate snap, but for an average computer user (not Linux enthusiast) there is nothing wrong with it. Steam was an issue for a while but that's been resolved.

Posting a commit message is not a legally binding authoring attribution and doesn't magically change things.

It's just like if I published a git tutorial site that had "coauthor: my_actual_name_here" hidden in an automation file. That would not magically give me copyright of every piece of code submitted by anyone who followed my git tutorial.

A new technology doesn't take over overnight.

For new car purchases in europe as a whole 2024 was 15% EV, 2025 was 19% EV.
Pure ICE engines (diesel and petrol) fell from 47% to 37% in the same timeperiod.

They mean Data Centre.

The advantage of at-scale lithium is the technology advances will trickle down to home users. I have a 30kWh home battery that was about $6k installed and retrofitted (AC coupled, ick I know) into my 12 kW solar system. This is battery slimline and about the size of two suitcases (it's two 15kWh stacks linked together). It charges in full by 12 noon on sunny days (with me then actively sending power back to the grid) and usually by end of day on overcast days.

If it was cheaper, but:
- required 2x as much charging (meaning i would rarely fill it, or needed double the solar)
- was several times as large

I would likely not consider it.

Any tech making home batteries cheaper/longer lifespan/denser is a win for people like me.

Is solar just not a big thing in the US? I'd guess 1/4 of houses around here have it. Closer to 1/2 depending on the exact neighbourhood. Checking google maps (which is a bit out of date) 15/40 houses on my "block" (suburban street loop) have it.

My car cost 48k AUD, which translates to 34k USD. So if I had 200k I could almost buy 6. I'm guessing they're provide a discount for a 6pack to make it under 200k.

That's without any sort of rebate/incentive/etc. It's not the cheapest car in the world, but not extravagant.

90% of my EV charging comes from my own solar. I'd hope most people with EVs have solar and a battery.

Hyundai's Ioniq series (5 specifically) is amazing. Kia EV6 is also quite strong.

Don't forget that term has a slightly different nuance to us aussies

You had me until there. I am pretty sure this is a troll that's going over 95% of people's heads, but if not then ... no. that is not an acceptable use care for a typical home office.
