If you can charge at home yeah it’s fine, otherwise you’re fucked. I had an ID3 and could only charge at work or at an expensive charger at a gas station.

I had to plan charging at work otherwise I couldn’t decide on a whim to go see my mum on Sundays. The itinerary took around 60% of the battery in summer and only one charging station in between, which is not working half the time. So either I take 30-60 minutes before going to charge (hoping the charger is working and available), or I can throw the dice and hope the chargers on the way works this time.

It’s not so much range anxiety than the infrastructure around me not being enough.

Edit: and by charge at work, I mean go to the nearest charger near the office and remember to get the car back once full to avoid overtime fees. Work took 3 years to install chargers on the office parking.

I think that’s the same kind of battery technology as explained in this video. Most certainly not the same chemistry used, but same in principle

The only thing I watched of the contest

Exactly, just create the conditions and system so that not pushing the button results in poverty and people will line up to push it

It was limited to two per purchase, but I could still add (and maybe buy) more after I bought my 2

Why not also ban the poster that spam this community with bad faith comics to create unending arguments on basic shit?

Like he probably posted enough banned comics to warrant a ban from here?

It’s obvious if you watch the movie

IIRC in the first half hour they explicitly shit talk the execs wanting a sequel so it’s quite obvious it’s a middle finger to Warner bros.

FYI someone managed to make another dongle based on the same chip work by flashing the original dongle firmware on it. I’ll try and find the article later

It’s the Schwarz group, they don’t only have Lidl but also notably an IT division. Everybody calls it the Lidl cloud but it has to my knowledge, little actual relation to the grocery chain.

Except I saw predictions of 80+ already before the ram crisis.
They sold the original controller at an affordable price, why not do the same now? They make hella margin on the steam store so no need to fleece customers for the peripherals

Essentially the same as the original controller with just an extra joystick.
The Deck has all that + screen+computer+speakers for as low as 400. The controller part is not 1/4 of the cost there.
Plus the components are essentially the same as for the deck, so less cost for the RnD and the manufacturing.

If it’s priced higher than ~60 it better work perfectly with the system/games, unlike the Deck which has many issues with multiple controllers.
I’ll gladly spend around200 buck for a 4 pack if that means I can reliably play couch games with my friends, but imagine having to spend more than what a used Deck costs for 4 controllers 💀

Why is everyone guessing high prices?

Why couldn’t they make it affordable at around 50 bucks?

There’s also the idea of reversible computing where we could somehow get around the issue and lower the amount of heat generated. But I don’t understand it well enough to explain further

Joke’s on you, I read that while taking a shit at work :)

Hopefully less rapey than this shit 🤮

Really thought your second story was gonna end with David being dead… Which I mean, it kinda does

Maybe their SLO is three 9: 89.99%

Oh nice! I was thinking this will improve my Linux gaming even more, but it’s already used :)

Never said they do that to protect us, it’s to protect themselves and the publishers.
IIRC there were region restrictions but it was not enough
