Cheap EVs From Failed Startup Are Piling Up in Arizona Scrapyard
  • I was also told by someone that worked there that the whole problem with them was a software issue in the motor controller. The manufacturer of that controller would not work with them on a fix and management didn't want to replace them.

    Not really sure I get Wayland
  • Don't forget Wayland and security into the mix as well. That seems to have caused some of the biggest issues with apps. Don't get me wrong though, security was desperately needed. X11 had no concept of security.

    Is it better to rent a cheap/shitty place, or rent something suitable that you struggle to afford?
  • It depends on where your priorities are. For me i would go for cheap\shitty place so long as it was safe enough and i wasn't going to be robbed all the time. Save the money and then go buy a place you really like when you can afford it better.

    Wireguard self hosting - Some tricks I don't see mentioned in too many tutorials
  • The "allowed host" on the client side is to put the networks in you would like to route to. If you want to use the VPN tunnel for your default route it's when you use the 0.0.0.0/0

    Why still using the imperial system?
  • But if isn't.

    • start by putting metric units next to the SAE units in the labels
    • Eventually people get used to the units and then you phase out the use of them.

    All science and most of the mechanical engineering is done in metric already. If you have a car made in the last 20 years ask the fasteners are already metric. So it really isn't that hard..

    Partitioning mixed media
  • I would use the M2 drive as your root partition. If you really want to break it down smaller for just the stuff that needs speed, then maybe /usr and /var/lib. Your home directory can contain programs but more often than not it is only settings and storage. Just my 2 cents though.

    I'm Heading to Phoenix Can Anyone Recommend Anything Cool To Check Out While I'm There?
  • There are a ton of great restaurants like everyone has pointed out. Phoenix is huge and your experience is going to vary greatly in which areas you are in and you're access to transportation. The mass transit is getting better but still not great. You can take Waymo (self-driving cars) to many places but it is better just to have your own car here. Check out Arizona Highways magazine for some outdoor stuff. There is a killer airplane museum in Tucson and a Titan missile solo you can go tour. Tons of car shows all over the place. I personally like catching the one at the Pavilions in Scottsdale. It is a great time of year to visit though and I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
