Are engine block heaters being confused for pre-heating the cabin? Because we have block heaters too.

The peak version of this that’s kind of sold me is you can pre-condition in the garage. Like, why wouldn’t anyone want to do that.

Too bad they discontinued it.

Definitely heat, and a design to handle it. Ford has an issue with some Mach-E’s that the power junction would weld itself shut if you used the DC fast charger and floored the car shortly after. Once that happened it bricks the car and you gotta replace the part.

They also don’t seem to have many standards either. Specs and reviews I’ve seen seem to jump generations within a few months. I think my favorite ridiculous spec was the ability to use two fast chargers (one on either side of the car since it has two plugs) to pump some 300 miles in 5-10 minutes. It’s wild to read about the stuff they’re doing.

So I guess even church run food banks are too communist.

Haha I had to look it up, but that’s the definition of “innovation”. Literally taking something existing and making it better.

I guess it would be better to say they innovated the slate style phone. Android didn’t come out until 2008 and all other top phones used physical buttons. The iPhone technically only had 5 for general functions.

I remember the first keynote. Jobs kept repeating phrases like music player, web browser, and phone together like that. And then boom, he whipped out the first iPhone that was in his pocket the whole time. While there were similar devices at the time, nothing (to my knowledge) was all one package especially in an all touch device that small.

Unfortunately not! I’m nowhere near as active here as I was on Reddit. Also, I haven’t really looked either! If there’s one I can latch onto, I can certainly pump some info every now and again.

No hate here! Music is super subjective. And that era of punk is…….somewhat an acquired taste haha.

Green River, U-Men, Gas Huffer, Skin Yard, TAD…..so many great bands and too many to name. Of course everyone remembers the big 4, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam and Nirvana. But they weren’t what defined the scene. Maybe the early releases, but the mainstream albums hit for a reason. I still like it all though.

I’m that weird guy that still buys cassette tapes from Sub Pop haha.

If you get a chance and want to dive into it, then book by Mark Yarm (no relation to Mark Arm lol) called “Everyone loves our town, the oral history of grunge” is super wild. The guy basically interviewed everyone from the U-Men to producers and managers.

Astroneer, Raft, and if you like mindless indie stuff Generation Zero.

Remnant 1 & 2 if you like souls type third person shooters.

Dungeon of the Endless and the new version Endless Dungeon.

Matt Lukin and all the guys from Mudhoney are still there. So is Krist Novoselic. He even holds political office currently I think.

Jack Endino still runs a recording studio, although I think he doesn’t produce as much as he used to.

Forced update, they took too long to restart.

Norfolk is taking on debt with the McArthur and Military Circle Mall acquisition and are desperate for cash flow. Especially since O’conner vacated recently.

Damn that is literally all they post

It’s crazy he was only just elected in march.

Looks like they retconned the dub announcement with this too.

Damn I had completely different experience. I think I’m on NG+4 with almost 300 hours.
