But if all squares have four sides, why does a carpenter's square only have 3?
No. We don't need hardware tied to SaaS at all. Full stop. There's nothing to add.
Maybe the article goes a different direction, but I'll never know because The Verge now apparently has a login wall on their articles.
But maybe Steven Cheung does.
Today Toyota has a range of BEVs and is launching more as I type this.
Toyota has one BEV that was released at an unattractive price, with an unremarkable range, and with fairly unattractive styling. There's others upcoming, but it's just the one at the moment.
Nothing could be worse than X Æ A-12.
Further clarification:
Clarification, he doesn't own the restaurant, he just licenses his stage name to it.

Not having really researched the topic, I understand electric vehicles in general have more torque and power than ICE vehicles. Given that the major brands have made EV trucks that have very similar packaging to their ICE counterparts, the only holdback is the range and charging anxiety. For anyone not towing heavy loads long distances, an EV truck should be more than capable as a work truck, and in some ways even more capable (job site power) or preferable (maintenance cost reduction and fleet charging at the office) over their counterparts.
Edit: there is a second holdback of the "my truck absolutely needs to make smog and noise because I'm insecure about myself" crowd.
I've run into what might be a bug. There's a post with an Imgur link and text that puts a thumbnail of the linked gif on the post page. The thumbnail displays correctly, but clicking the thumbnail takes me to a dead Imgur link in the media viewer. Clicking the Imgur link in the body text takes me to a live Imgur link with the original gif on a full Imgur post page within the custom tabs browser.
The only text on that page that states the origin of the dev's code is Mazda's claim that the relevant code is Mazda's. If their claim is true, then it would seem to me the DMCA takedown is valid.
The reason the DMCA takedown notice is malicious is that code from Mazda's official app is not required to develop a tool that works in a similar way. The API of the server is freely accessible and figuring out how to interact with it can be done completely without infringing on anyone's copyright.
Okay, it doesn't matter how it could have been done, it matters how it was done, and again, the only claim made on the page is that it was stolen code.
I'm all for actually owning what you buy and being able to integrate it with your other stuff however you please, but distributing someone else's work is a valid claim for infringement. And as with any other cloud-based stuff, don't expect it to work forever. Support and push for local device access without the need for cloud services.
Doesn't seem like it, since the text link in the body of the post still takes me to the gif.
I'm on Boost on Android. Clicking on the thumbnail still takes me to the Imgur removed image. The text link in the body of the post still correctly takes me to the gif.
volts hurt, amps kill
True, in a sense, but misses some nuance. Current is pulled, not pushed. Volts provide the electromotive force that allows the current to flow in the first place. Considering Ohm's Law (V=IR), for 8 Amps to be pulled by a human body at 110V, the body would have to provide a resistance of only 14 Ohms.
A quick search shows humans can range from 1000 Ohms when really wet up to 100,000 Ohms dry. I'm assuming this is just in regards to skin, because another result specified 300 Ohms inside the body. Let's just look at the 300 Ohms, and we'll say 8 Amps * 300 Ohms = 2400 Volts. 2400 Volts to pull less current through the body than your average hair dryer pulls at 110 Volts.
Another way to look at it is a car battery is 12 Volts and has the capacity to provide around 500 Amps. Touching one terminal with each hand won't kill you. We don't come close to drawing the 500 Amps the battery is capable of providing, as we're only pulling 12 V / 300 Ohms = 40 mA at worst (but remember that skin provides extra resistance beyond the 300 Ohms, so really we'd be pulling much less). It only takes a couple milliamps across the heart to kill you, but what little current flows through you is taking many split paths through your body, so only a portion of that goes through the heart.
Clicking the thumbnail lands me on this instead of the clip that shows up when I click the text link, and it's almost as funny.
900W/4A
Beyond 4 Amps being the most insanely low rating I've ever seen on a power strip, 900 Watts would actually be 8 Amps at the 110 Volts dictated by the North American plug on the cord.
Don't know if it's an organized group or just a spur-of-the-moment angry mob, but there is this story: https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/ice-arrest-mother-video-massachusetts-daughter-b2747948.html
He acknowledged that the Christian faith is sometimes “considered absurd”.
Okay, I'm on board...
“A lack of faith is often tragically accompanied by the loss of meaning in life, the neglect of mercy, appalling violations of human dignity, the crisis of the family and so many other wounds that afflict our society,”
Coming from a position of atheism, I find these statements to largely be more true of those with faith than those without. While his statement doesn't explicitly condemn or place exclusive blame for these ill effects on the faithless, the fact that it was said at all alludes to a prejudice against those of different beliefs, and raises a red flag for me.
No one learnt
TIL. So yeah, what remains of Abe is not very active at all, as far as what's observable to the unaided eye. I'm sure there's some trace amounts of radioactivity in the ashes and some molecular movement due to the fact he's not stored at absolute zero.
The bottle on the ground behind him really sells it.
