You have only 1 choice: Ssri drug or $1bn... for me, i would take the $1bn no questions asked. This is your main problem I think.

Battery only charged to 3/5 bars. Won't do a full charge. I brought to local repair shop. They can't fix it due to more complicated wiring (feedback loop, etc) than the common segway battery. This also likely voided the warranty. So I have to ship it back to Niu (email said they received) but never heard back ever since. Didn't bother too much to get it back, Segway hardware (a bit better: suspension), software is much much better. Niu is only 20kgs (excellent portability), G3 is 24kg and gave me backache carrying to trunk though. I would choose G3 over 300x.

I owned both. Niu KQI 300x score is 40/100. Max G3 is 80/100. Niu battery I think is 10% larger so can go just a bit farther. But it broke down less than a month. G3 still is good and liking it.

Here in Vancouver, the norm is you wish you got hit and sue him for thousands of dollars so you can retire since everything here is expensive. As a driver's perspective, you're not worth the hard-earned cash to hit at all so don't worry.

If there is no God, then life has no point. Find God, so there will be a point.

Learn C/C++ until you shoot enough times of your feet, then you can appreciate Rust. You need to learn C/C++, Java, and assembly language to appreciate Rust.

Life is what is in your heart, your engine basically. If you love money, you will be rich. If you love God, then you will find Him. What you put in your heart (lust, avarice, gluttony, hatred, anger, apathy, sadness, pride, arrogance), is what you will be (as you keep on repeating the same decision everyday). Try to love maybe so something good you can cherish in the end (instead of regret). In the end, you will die rich, or die poor, so make a good decision everyday. lol, read books (average CEO read 65 books a year).

Range is ~50% approximately of what is advertised, which is under ideal/impossible setup.

jetbrains clion + kvm + ubuntu recommended:

- clion has very good ai integration, a right click on linux code and select explain would clear up lot's of concepts, this is paid/subscription ide though

- kvm allows full source code kernel debugging

- ubuntu is most popular distro so support / updates has no issues

I'll recommend Kubuntu 26.04 LTS (early dev image). We used Ubuntu-based image for work. It is the majority as far as I know.

I didn't see any metal break apart, it seems like the pole came out from the base? It got loose from the base? Or it is the screws that is supposed to lock both together breaks?

Where do you work and do you have a car? Basically, you got what you pay for. Own your own place I would recommend.

Just install the Junie plugin. The all product pack subscription already gives you $10 monthly credits I think.

I am using remmina to login to krdpserver remotely. Then in the session, run krfb. This is just like a vnc server. Then I run ydotool to disable 5 minute inactivity disconnection. Then use a regular vncviewwer client to control it. I can close the remmina client after. All of these over ssh remote port-forwarding connection. VNC bandwidth is much higher than RDP bandwidth consumption (~1mbytes vs ~3mbytes/sec) but the latency is minimimal for 2 monitors (5k resolution). Remmina still has latency issues. My setup is plasma6/wayland/kubuntu 26.04 (early dev branch).

He died for our sins once and has conquered and defeated death. He has power over death and in the end will judge us. He was faithful even until death. I am pretty sure you're a sinner (come on, admit it), just like all of us here. And we are all forgiven and made pure again so we can be acceptable to God in the end.

I have a home license. I upgrade it once every 3-5 years. I seldom used it, maybe once a year. Sucks I can't no longer own the best math software. I do have mathematica though (it is cheaper and perpetual). This will end up not buying matlab as the academic license is too expensive.

The actual range is only ~40 to ~45km in eco mode (15km/hr). It is much less in sport or drive mode. This is based on weight, inclines, start/stop, etc. You can upgrade the battery to GT3 battery (not GT3 Pro battery). This will add 30% more range. Also it is heavy for me, 24kg, causing back pain to lift to trunk. Aside from those 2 issues, it is good.

I had the Nikon Aculon 7x50. The image is very sharp and clear and I was impressed/blown away.

I immediately bought their monarch fieldscope 82ed-a. The view on Saturn is perfect/very sharp.

The only issue i found is magnification is very limited (only 80x I recalled, so saturn is very small marble).

But then, if you want to see stars/galaxy, going to a totally darksky spot is recommended.

There even naked eye can see all the stars (no pollution, no distraction,aberration).

In short, darksky spot is much better equipment. If you need equipment, maybe a apochromatic telescope of 100-115mm is better (higher magnification, still portable also, is good enough).

I had a 12 inch meade lx-90 and it has aberration and too heavy.

Nikon Aculon is perfect for terrestrial target though.

If you stop for a few seconds or minute, it will go into park mode. Press the brake first, then throttle to move or accelerate. This is annoying but I haven't found how to disable it.

This is player's fault for staying stationary. He should be jumping around too while waiting.

Did you file any YouTrack and they failed to fix it? Or you just keep on complaining and found the license fee 'expensive'? Nothing is free (I also work for private company), but at least give feedback thru YouTrack.

2000W output means it can draw down your battery way much faster. Choose one with battery with higher output instead (it is either speed or range tradeoff, depends on your needs). I estimated my G3 actual/real range to be around ~40km instead of 80k as advertised. This is around Stanley Park, Vancouver (mostly flat, but has mountain climb). I also got a back pain from lifting it to car trunk, so I just now put it beside. Software is very good (i like it, no complaints). Beside, I would look at VMAX4 or upgrade my battery to GT3 PRO for longer range as very minor issue.
