I just want to give kudos to the engineers who are working with fifty-year-old software to reprogram entirely a spacecraft that's nearly a light-day away. Holy shit.

Yeah but when one PC component absolutely blows the price of a whole console out...

I don't know if I'm crazy, but that could literally kill PC gaming in the US, in my opinion. At that point, consoles absolutely run away in the competition of value.

Yeah that definitely varies from person to person.

As someone who lives not far from their HQ, FUCK Tesla. Scam company lead by a guy who's actively trying to destroy the local watershed. Lucid I think are trying to do well, but they're definitely not competing in the typical mass market segment in the same way that Hyundai, Honda, et al are.

Yeah, not to mention the procession of the planet's star around the galactic centre would be an absolute bitch. The best we could hope for in terms of any craft's travel time is likely around 160 years, and even then only with major advancements in propulsion technology.

10/10 would recommend. My only complaint is that the windshield wiper fluid reservoir is a tad small at only 2 litres.

But I'll be leaving super early on a Friday, with my charging stops planned out using A Better Route Planner.

I've done the drive before. Thinking Austin to Nashville on day 1, then Nashville to Arlington on day 2 (I've got some friends there I'll be staying with), and Arlington to NYC on day 3. 495 can indeed go fuck itself.

TIL. I thought the R2 was going to be another halo product similar to their current offerings.

I got my Ioniq 5 on 1 March, so obvious it's early. The range on mine is a little short compared to some (~400 km from 80% charge), but it's more than adequate and then some for what I need. As a matter of fact, I'll be surprised if it struggles much during my upcoming move from Texas to New York.

Are Rivian actually bringing a car with a realistic price to market?

Side note: Agreed with your experience on Hyundai/Kia dealers, but I ended up getting an Ioniq 5 SEL AWD that - honestly - I absolutely love.
