Oh yep, not the same person here but price varies widely.

In my apartment complex, we have Blink network EV chargers at $0.03/kWh which is a crazy price. The complex next door’s Blink chargers charges $0.50ish/kWh (both of those are Level 2) and our apartment rates (for the hypothetical out-the-window Level 1 charging) is somewhere $0.14-0.18/kWh.

DC fast charging for trips will likely will charge closer to that $0.50/kWh mark depending on the location and will be a problem for those who don’t have lower-cost charging at home.

That’s a big range for “home” (but still commercial) charging and depending on the efficiency of the vehicle, the cost per mile will vary. The range will likely be around 2 mi/kWh to 4 mi/kWh.

Those types of announcements are their equivalent of Tesla’s “full-self driving next year guys!” every year since like 2015?

These “breakthroughs” are Toyota “Full-Self Driving next year!” fluff and I’ll believe it when it’s shipped and performing.

bro would be catching up on FTX news and their takeaway would be “damn rats snitched on SBF!”

Yep, while my Extreme Gen 4 has a BIOS toggle, my work-issued T14 Gen 3 does not so I had to get IT to come in and enable hibernate. Prior to that it seemed like it had less battery life sleeping than awake. (ex: fully charged and confirmed that the power light is flashing before flight - few hours later it’s 100% dead.)

You’re talking to someone who keeps a couple Palm PDAs around!

But more seriously, it worked fine, ran well enough and I got rid of it maybe 14 months ago? I had it for around 4 years at that point and it’s still getting some iOS 16 patches if I had kept it.

It’s not about the user friendliness, it’s about available parts, service, and software support! Just happens to age gracefully for a phone

Had an iPhone 8 serviced at ubreakifix and I got it back and it opened to the top-level of the Photos app. It was also the time when putting the phone to sleep in Recently Deleted or Hidden sent the app back to the top-level when woken back up.

Lesson learned, inferior parts too due to availability and cost limitations sadly. I didn’t mind the added thickness but I did mind that it could not keep up with my typing speed. Apple services phones without requiring the passcode and I’m disappointed I didn’t dig in my heels more.

Not a big thing but in the days before iOS 5 and iMessage came around, all bubbles were green since it was SMS only.

There have been some experimentation but the best (IMO) option is hitting the SOS button to call and navigating the phone menu to get to a representative, not emergency services and having them disconnect your car. You may need your VIN, you’ll need to confirm that you do not want connected services and it may take a day or so to take effect. Now, my SOS button doesn’t have the green light and while the radio - according to the infotainment - is still powered, it is no longer connected to the network.

Another way if you don’t plan on using the microphone (like for calls) you can pull the DCM fuse but I prefer the above option.

I think while the topic is up it’ll be fun mentioning that the Colorado/Canyon does not have a physical headlight control anymore - in favor of defaulting to Auto and touchscreen controls and the project lead(?) claimed that the system was 100% bug-free.

Also later there was a bug with some OTA update for that model that’ll kill the battery.

Anyways, I bought a 4Runner and immediately called to disable its cellular radio. (dubbed DCM in Toyota-land)

iMessage indicates “Delivered” for messages that was received by a recipient device and switches to “Read [time]” when read.

Otherwise it’ll sit without a Delivered or fallback to SMS.

My parent’s Hyundai had no customer-facing internet-related features on the car. Still had a cellular radio for telematics. A potential tell is an SOS button. (That’s a non-issue since it’s 3G now and that went bye-bye but 4G is going to be around a while)

But my similar age to your Focus, newer than the Sonata, Sorento had nothing that I could find. So it’s possible.

Echo Dot’s joking, more binary per gigabyte doesn’t actually make sense
