  • I have a Nissan leaf and installed a level 2 outlet at my house to avoid this.

    It charges overnight so I wake up and drive to work with a full battery.

    Since I usually use it to commute it’s perfect. I have had to use chadmo stations (level 3 and slower than Tesla stations) when on longer trips. That takes about 45 minutes to fully charge? Usually I just top up so I can get home if my range is a bit short.

    Some of the newer EVs can use super fast charging stations and fully charge in under 20 mins but those stations are rare. I think to get widespread adoption we would need cars that can hyper charge (or whatever it’s called) and those chargers to be all over.

    I was driving a Volvo xc70 with the flip up rear facing third row seats.

    That thing was choice.

    I could fit so much stuff and friends/family in it and the gas mileage was heaps better than an suv (not amazing but better).
    I wish there were more out there being made.

    Now I’m driving a Nissan leaf and when I got it titled it was listed as a station wagon which I thought was funny.











  • Kind of highlights fallout 4s biggest story frustration, for me anyway.

    Even on my first playthrough I never felt tied to the prewar life or the family from it. I think 3 did a better job showing us why we should care about our dad and finding him that was absent in 4. After waking up and getting your bearings it was super weird going on tons of side quests and then in dialogue being so serious about finding your kid. I really enjoy fallout 4 but the kid aspect never has clicked for me.


  • Man, online recipe sites have gotten so bad in the last few years.

    There’s like a page of text talking about the food while the page is swimming with intrusive ads or promotions. I hate it.

    It’s like the worst parts of old school internet pop is ads gained sentience and a love for cooking.

    It’s always a game of finding and clicking print recipe as fast as I can. That and immersive reader have helped on mobile.
