My understanding is that they are producing a tank once per day or two days. Or?

Very brief search around the internet gives estimations around 250-300 tanks per year but the numbers seems to go down as they struggle to gather parts and resources, specially during 2025, but who knows what kind of supply lines they can arrange with China and other allies in the long run.

Except that traditional Google search is often filled with AI-generated sites without any value. I use DDG and if that fails it’s simple to use their ‘bangs’ to try other engines.

Do they really care enough to check your info manually if you don’t use your domain name for malicious purposes?

Depends on TLD how strict the checks are, but generally you’re at least violating TOS by doing it and can lose your domain should someone actually check the info. A lot of registrars provide at least whois-security, so they’ll know your real details but won’t share them openly to anyone who asks. I assume if you get into something illegal and court orders to release the data then they’ll happily comply instead of hurting their own business.

But if you just want to keep your real name and address out of the internet, that would be enough at least for me.

I’m in my 40s and have met, I don’t know, at least several hundred people over my lifetime more than once. At least as far as I know none of them has been in actual prison. Few have spent their night on the jail when getting too drunk (and obviously done some stupid shit while wasted) and police have “offered” them a bed to sober up but that’s it.

Obviously not in the US. I can’t even imagine society where nearly every other male you encounter would’ve been in prison at some point.

You’re not wrong on that. Might be easier to get some new pipe and couple of fittings to make whole new line.

Do those bite to copper?

You need to cut off the end of the pipe and get a new fitting there which mounts to the pipe and threads to the wall. Take measurements and photos of stuff and go ask from your local plumber for parts, in here we very rarely use soldered pipes and instead we have compressed fittings which are pretty simple to install (and also pretty easy to fuck up, so maybe look for a youtube-video or something if it’s your first time).

a) that doesn’t really sound like the fault of EVs or the charging stations themselves. Any sort of very moderate air current would cause the same problem.

Excactly. The stations themselves don’t create particles but magnetic fields from the high voltage DC lines and cooling fans just pick them up from the ground and back to air. It’s quite misleading to claim this is “Fine particulate matter emissions from electric vehicle fast charging stations” as the stations just redistribute existing emissions.

Obviously this is not a good thing, but the underlying cause is something else than these stations, I’d bet considerable amount of it comes from combustion engines. And as you said, simple filters should fix the problem and clean up the pollution from environment as well.

Ubiquiti

And they too aggressively push their cloud services and at least some point their management tool gave you ads on their other products.

The company was sold to Ford at 1999 and to Chinese holding company at 2010. And Renault owns Dacia and parts of Nissan and Mitsubishi. Citroen was owned by Peugeot and they merged with Fiat Chrysler automotive to Stellantis group who own a buttload of brands (Fiat, Jeep, Opel, Alfa Romeo, Chrysler…)

So if you really want to stick on purely European you need to look for MB, VW or BMW.

I refuse to call it X. It’s twitter, formerly known as somewhat sensible platform to receive information around the world.

Here in Finland we just might hit +20C this week. Maybe a bit over that in the south. Maybe not coldest since forever, but definetly colder than last couple of summers so far.

I did self-host bitwarden and it’s not that bad to keep updated and running after initial setup (including backups obviously) but it still requires some time and effort to keep it running. And as I was the only user for the service it just wasn’t worth the time spent for me (YMMV) so I switched to their EU servers and I’ve been a happy user ever since.

What I should do is to improve local backps on that, currently I just export my data every now and then manually to a secured storage, but doing it manually means that there’s often too long time between exports.

Over the past few posts I’ve set up a Windows VM with USB passthrough, and attempted to reverse-engineer the official drivers, As I was doing that, I also thought I’d message the vendor and ask them if they could share any specifications or docs regarding their protocol. To my surprise, Nanoleaf tech support responded to me within 4 hours, with a full description of the protocol that’s used both by the Desk Dock as well as their RGB strips.

Based on news lately cracks on Russian economy start to show and their meat grinder in Ukraine crawls forward with massive casualties. At this rate they can’t attack a garden shed.

Putin himself can preparen and wish to conquer whatever he wants but as long as the little remains what’s left of Soviet Union might is scattered around Ukraine, Russia can’t really do anything. If Europe can’t get their shit together and Russia eventually wins (after several years at this pace) in Ukraine it would still take years to build up any kind of military force against anyone and even then they’d need to fight against whole EU and whatever remains are left of NATO.

Detroit Electric from 1907 then. They produced 13 000 units in ~30 years. Obviously small numbers compared to today, but mass produced models anyway.

Also, should true AI some day become reality, it makes equally sense that it’ll do whatever it can to stay “alive”, like any other life form.

The first would be the GM EV1 in 1997:

Flocken Elektrowagen, 1888

The Flocken Elektrowagen is a four-wheeled electric car designed by Andreas Flocken (1845–1913), manufactured in 1888 by Maschinenfabrik A. Flocken in Coburg. It is regarded as the first real electric car.

I’ve been wondering if those fiber reels are glass or plastic. Glass wouldn’t be a big deal when it breaks down but covering whole forests with pieces of plastic is a bit another matter.

War obviously isn’t the environmentally friendly thing in the first place but that’s just something what I’ve wondered with these videos.
