That shit is copay. Can’t even get a cat neutered for $50.

Damn. Should have come to the comment section first, I guess. That blurry image was a pita to read.

I wasn’t sure before, but after this last reply I can clearly tell that you’re pretty dumb. I’m sorry for your loss.

Just fyi: my mention of Amazon is because Slate is practically owned by Amazon. They’re a separate company but Slate was created by former Amazon ceo’s and Jeff Bezos has also invested 9 figures into it. So a slate is pretty much Amazon’s truck.

LFP is only typically about 15% less energy dense than NMC. You’re dead wrong about EV manufacturers moving off NMC. LFP is cheaper to make and lasts way longer. Only the US has more issue, because we’ve pissed off everyone else and getting lithium can be a potential supply chain issue.

The tax credit didn’t get killed off until the end of 2025. Way after Amazon had already purchased the batteries from a South Korean manufacturer, that was chosen because they have a fab in the US and it was going to meet the EV full tax credit (this is well known and documented. Go see for yourself).

You also don’t know that everyone will buy the bigger battery option. The range is supposed to be like an extra 100 miles, but Amazon hasn’t given price differences yet. If the base model is $25k, but the extended range model is over $30k, the smaller model may very well sell good. They’re just being made as city trucks. Neither battery is big enough or charges quickly enough for long road trips, so a lot of people may not care about the extra range. Depends on pricing.

The 100k battery replacement is pretty spot on. Smaller batteries means more complete charge cycles done faster. NMC noticably degrades after around 800 cycles. The batteries will start needing replaced at 10 years and 100,000 miles.

Lol. No it isn’t. The batteries are only 53kw\h in size and they’re using shitty NMC batteries instead of LFP (or other) batteries because they want the full $7,500 tax credit. $500 would more than make up for the aerodynamics. No manufacturers want to use those batteries anymore because they only last like 2\5 the charge cycles compared to LifeP04, and it get even worse compared to other batteries coming out right now. Really, putting those batteries in something with only a 150 mile range is kind of a shitty move, IMO. You’ll need a new battery after 100,000 miles. Fine for a cheaper option I suppose, so long as the batteries are easy to replace and it won’t cost $5,000 in labor.

Riiiught. How is that going to make it cheaper? They can use a bit smaller of a battery to get the same range? That size difference would just be around $500.

Not really true for pricing. A small truck isn’t much more weight or material than a sedan.

The latest Lifepo4 batts that catl just got into production this past month or so are set to be way better than even this one here.

Just test it first. I got a faraday bag of Amazon and it didn’t work.

Been using localsend for maybe 2 years now.

Super simple and absolutely wonderful program. Something that any OS on any device should have just came as a free and simple implementation from the get go, but instead they make it as hard as can be without passing your data through their grubby little fingers first.

LocalSend is the best way to move and backup your files without the cloud or a data cable.

In the dwindling amount of phones that will allow you to install GOS on them?

Because they just stepped into fall, the party was going to take fall damage. Feather fall prevents fall damage.

Lol. At least you figured it out in the end.

If you read any of those comments in what you yourself linked, you’d see that a whole bunch of them are referencing and talking about OP’s profile no longer there. So obviously, due to technical issues or other means, the OP of that post was not there for some time period and it has since been restored. “Slam dunk”

Most places don’t do cash back, and the ones that do tend to have a limit of like $40. Wal Mart is a bit of an exception, as they’ll do $100, but you aren’t getting a $100 bill from them through their self checkout. You’ll only get 20’s.

So if you go to Wal Mart, and you go to one of the few real people to check you out, and you ask for it back in a $100 bill, and the teller happens to have gotten a $100 in since they had started that day, and the front lead hadn’t already cashed out the register since they received that $100 bill, then yes. In that case you’ll get a $100 bill and will slightly fuzz up the tracking metrics they could theoretically do.

They give out $100’s if you aren’t a poor people.

But seriously though. A lot of ATM’s will do 100’s, anymore.

They don’t give $100 bills back out.

Been using windscribe for 2 years now. Big fan so far. Haven’t had any issues and it’s nice that I can set it up on my android phone to block access to everything on there if by off chance it were to crash or go down.

Or just not have bullshit age verification to begin with. 98% of anything I do online shouldn’t need proof of who I am. Right down to my email provider.

I gave up trying to buy Tesla puts. Their valuation perpetually defies all logic. Even after this news their stock is still higher than it was a month ago.
