Why would you split the screen in two if the content isn't sized such that splitting the screen in two would make sense? Why would you want to waste space on a task bar when not needed? Why does none of this have the benefit of an always on top window that actually allows you to maximise space by overlaying content onto dead space of other windows?

Yeah I'm sure you there's people who don't understand window management here, you can find one staring at you in the mirror.

It's a nice hit piece but what they are describing in that article is part for the course in the auto industry. Even with the estimated "true" net debt that puts BYD only slightly ahead of Tesla which isn't actually too bad given their production volumes are significantly higher.

The idea that anyone "sits arounds" and waits on their EVs is nonsense. The question you should ask is if you have L2 charging infrastructure anywhere near your house, and then call it a day.

I've "sat around" more hours pumping fuel into my car than I ever have waiting on an EV to charge. And no I don't have a charger at home, but somehow my car is always able to be magically filled while I'm not there.

To be fair I thought like you before I got my first EV. In retrospect I feel very silly about my views back then.

I didn't even need to see who the parent was, just read your reply to know you were talking to fluffernutter. Forget him, he's a complete lost cause. He's views on EVs are stuck in the early 2010s and no amount of people correcting his bullshit will ever get him to change.

How did you post?

Exactly, so you should stop guessing and stick to the facts: A tow company towed a car and it was damaged in the process. I.e. they fucked up.

Again, not the root cause of the damage. If you want to define a different problem, such as the root cause for someone having their car towed then yes you'd be right, but since you didn't define that question you're wrong. I highly recommend taking an actual RCFA class.

Not sad at all. It would be sad if they were airgapped. Being unable to plan maintenance on a conditional bases for a fleet of 1000s of fridges would be a disaster. Running things to failure may work in your home, but it is unlikely to impress your supermarket chain when their product spoils.

Because when you manage 1000s of fridges it's a bit more complicated than simply waiting for it to break down at home. Condition based maintenance by definition requires data about the condition to be available in real time.

Awful for security yes, but this isn't a common sense issue, it's a not understanding requirements issue. "Hello IT, have you tried turning it off and on" works only if someone is on the other end of the phone. The ability to remotely control a fleet of high availability commercial devices getting all manner of data or remotely managing their operation is important when you have 1000s of fridges to look after.

Most people don't comprehend this because they consider only breakdown maintenance in their fridge at home. I bet you've never even done preventative maintenance (vacuumed the condenser) on your fridge. On the other hand when you have to prioritise which of the 1000s of fridges you need to look at you need a bit more access than randomly driving to one and hoping it was the most important to maintain on that day.

You've dumbed down and simplified the problem. The issue isn't a need to change the temperature for ice cream, the issue is a complete maintenance interface with detailed statistics, alarms, and real time condition monitoring is available on the network. That is the use case. Beyond that primary use case the question is if any IEC 62443 compliant processes were considered in the design. The answer is probably no, and thus no one considered that someone unauthorised may be in the system and thus never considered the requirement *not* to make temperature one of the adjustable features.

In the world of commercial or industrial products, remote control is becoming a critical condition based maintenance requirement. You don't need this at home with 1 fridge, but maybe you're a company that needs to manage a group of 5 technicians looking after thousands of fridges across multiple cities. Data remotely is key to the success of wide scale maintenance.

That's to 80%.

Ok well I would be stressed the whole time about the 2% and not be able to enjoy the trip and that's exactly what I don't want. Also no matter what trips you went on, you could have always done more with an ICE. that's just a fact, because you always have to charge at some point.

It's only conservatives that say things like that.

Furthermore, if you live in a dense urban environment you can use public transit most of the time.
