Nah.

Honda has a much better product in the first place, their engineering approach has always been better than Nissan (I say this having worked on every major brand, and some unknowns).

Nissan is one of the better ones, but they’re still a big step away from Honda.

And Honda was working on hydrogen nearly 30 years ago now, which seems poised to suplant batteries (again, maybe).

Not really, they’ve all had telemetry for probably 20 years.

The cars with satellite radio are even worse (which isn’t saying much, since they put modems in cars about 20 years ago)

Jeep/Chrysler have always been banned from my life.

Garbage. Worse than any other American car company. They even managed to screw up cars made for them by Mitsubishi.

Which is why adding Tailscale to this KVM is a killer solution

Excellent, thanks for the link!

I like your thoughts on runtime and recharge time.

That four hour limit really outs things into perspective for someone just starting out. Most people don’t understand the constraints at first.

I believe mailbox.org is all renewable, and I’m pretty sure it’s solar.

But you need a massive battery bank to run stuff, batteries have a limited lifespan (especially the crap used in a UPS).

It’s not cheap, you generally want to overbuild everything, and there are ongoing costs (hardware failures, batteries, etc).

But it can be done. Just have to do the math for your max power draw, then how much uptime you need determines the size of your battery bank and number of panels (which is influenced by how much sun you get/how consistent it is). You need enough panels to run your system and charge batteries, given the limitations of sun availability.

That’s fucked up

Wow, install Tailscale or Wireguard and you’ve got a killer remote support solution.

Weird people would downvote this. I usually don’t care (still don’t, lol) but someone downvoted the idea of installing a mesh VPN on this KVM, yet it’s already been done.

You could learn from this person, since all your other responses are adversarial.

I think it’s one of those “technically” things, that isn’t useful.

Someone from The Americas is American, technically. That’s how language works.

But I’d venture* that 97.3% of people mean United States when they say “Americans”, or better, it’s what people mean 97.3% of the time. The only time I’ve seen people bring it up is when they’re from a South American country.

So I’d say context and scale of detail/granularity influence the meaning in the moment.

*Totally Made Up Stats

Los Angeles is not in North America

I don’t see a problem with that.

Plus, by tectonic plates, isn’t it America, since N/C/S America are on the same plate, right? (I don’t trust my memory of school from decades ago).

Well, they’re in South America

I’ve never met anyone in tech who’s pronounced it any way other than “sequel”, and some of those folks were DB admins since the 80’s.

You win. All the upvotes.

But that’s “regular expressions”, which shortened is rej-ecks. How else would you say it? “Rejects”?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Drives me crazy that accounting software is SAAS. The last thing I want is my business accounting on someone else’s systems, regardless of how encrypted, backed up, etc.

Just look at the recent large company whose entire business data set was deleted by Google. If it were a small mom n pop, they’d be out of business before Google even responded.

I swear I see a business opportunity as an IT consulting service that implements nothing but local solutions.

Not just Europe, everywhere. Look at all the breaches, every day.

Until those breaches cost companies serious money, they won’t do anything about it.

I also don’t agree that we don’t know what it [consciousness] is.

… most can’t agree on how to define it.

Which is it?
