I don’t know. I get the impression they’ll be selling replacement body panels, but there will almost certainly be aftermarket equivalents you can buy, assuming this truck becomes at all popular. Maybe that won’t be the case if the body panels aren’t easily replaceable, but it seems like they’re going with ease of repairability as a major selling point

Surely people don’t actually want this, right?

They shouldn’t market this as a $20k truck “with federal incentive” if they’re expecting the incentive to go away

I’ve got a 50 mile round trip commute. I currently do it in a car with a 200 mile range just fine. I love the flexibility of a 200+ mile battery, but if cost was a concern, I’d be more than happy with 150 miles of range. Small battery would not be an issue for me. It’s cool that I could upgrade after the fact too, so I don’t have to plan ahead when I buy the car. Hopefully they give credit for the original battery when you upgrade, though

Highlighting battle scars is actually great! My previous car was brand new, and I would lament every dent and scrape. My current car was a used rental, so small cosmetic damage doesn’t bother me as much because it was never “perfect” to begin with. I’d love a car that leans into being “used in the real world” like that, and it sounds like it will be relatively easy to replace the body panels on this truck if they become too damaged. I’d never have to worry about rock chips again!

Never use libraries you don’t contribute to in Production

Lemmy taught me a fascist is just anyone we disagree with

FYI, all the certs you generate are public record, so it might be a good idea to use a wildcard route in Caddy. That will make it only generates one cert, so no one can find your internal domain names. Especially if your Caddy instance is accessible from the Internet, and you’re expecting external connections not to be able to access domains with only internal DNS records

Yep!

Apparently it’s not a legal modification for the manufacturer or a dealership to do, so the customer has to finish the install. They also put blackout tape over the light, with strict instructions for Tesla employees not to remove

That would probably work, until Plex decides to introduce another subscription tier on top of the lifetime license, and/or demand more money from its paying users. I could totally see them doing that

I’ll take it if you haven’t already given it away. This Plex change is not great for me, since I’m using remote access. I’ve got a Jellyfin server too, but I’m finding it less convenient for me, mostly for various nitpick reasons

I work for a big tech company, and part of our incident response procedure is to identify impacted users to send apology comms after cleaning everything up. Still, running those queries is a pain in the ass, so I understand why most companies don’t do that

Never show the customer a big scary error message. In the unlikely event something goes wrong, dispatch an error event so the engineers can track the issue. They’ll pull detailed logs, and know what to do. Meanwhile, guide the customer to return later with the error screen, and collect their userId if possible. Once the issue is fixed, send them an apology email to let them know they should try again

Most companies just follow the first half of that process, unfortunately

Welcome to big tech 🙂

Haha, okay let’s ignore the fact that Apple Maps shows Taiwan as a province of China, but only for Chinese users. It’s been like that for years, but we don’t care about China or Taiwan, so Apple gets a pass there. We can also ignore the inconvenient fact that Google changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico in Google Maps too. I suppose it doesn’t matter that the US GNIS officially changed the name of the Gulf, and that Apple is simply following its obligations as a mapping provider by respecting a region’s naming preferences for disputed entities (similar to Google). We also don’t care that Apple is clowning on the US by only showing the new name in that region. No, fuck Apple for not taking it upon themselves to decide that the current US administration is illegitimate, and not being petty by refusing to rename a thing in their mapping app

I totally understand complaining about Apple doing this, but to actually boycott them over this is childish. Go ahead and get rid of your iPhones, though. Just don’t forget to boycott Google and Android too. You won’t do it, but to anyone who actually does: respect

Sorry about the rant, but this is just insane to me

Damn near 100%, yes

Yeah, I bet it would be trivial for one of their engineers to whip up a universally compatible, hardware accelerated image file converter in JS, using no external dependencies, and less than 50 lines of code. Hint: it uses Canvas

Of all the things to maybe boycott Apple for, I think it’s kinda funny that this is where some people draw the line

This is probably a clever way of doing native JPEG image conversion on the front end, instead of pulling in (or reimplementing) a universal image conversion library

Haha, I wondered if that was sarcasm. Looks like I’ve been fooled!

Hahaha, the Fediverse has very little tolerance for “wrong” opinions. As if opinions can even be wrong

Also, the obligatory: *dissenting (sorry)
