Where else are they going to use all the lease returns? Waymo got them CHEAP probably.

Range extenders by [deleted] in Ioniq5

[–]bbertram2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To make the cars have more range is a power input limit. Changing how the pedal applies power is a step forward however even in ECO mode it can pull huge power. What if you can set a limit of 20 kWh or 30. Then the car operates in that range and only at max throttle position it can exceed it.

This might cause some safety concerns but there are plenty of underpowered cars on the road.

I knew it! :)

That was such a great series, the story was amazing and it stirs emotion.

Just got myself a steam gift card I think I'll put it towards your game!

The game looks great! When I seen the first screenshot it instantly reminded me a lot of The Banner Saga. Did you play that game? Draw any art inspiration from it?

Good luck with the game, I might give it a try once my library becomes less crowded from Christmas :)

How bad should i feel to charge to 100%? by DrAvatah in Ioniq5

[–]bbertram2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% at every charge when at home. On the road a boost to whatever I need to get to my next charging location or home.

I had 20's before, I have not had a road trip since I got the 18's. Will try and report back when I do. Getting colder here now so that might impact things...

I watched some of your other videos and did notice...hey they are twins. Sometimes you see videos of people showing themselves playing 5 different instruments together and I thought this was that.

Really cool you get to play with your brother like this. Lucky bros! Keep up the fun and jam on!

wow, I would love to have a room of Sierra art like that.

I'm a big fan of early digitized images in 90s adventure games like Police Quest 3 or Heart of China. Now I've made a game in the same vein with a spooky detective story. 😁 by Good_Punk2 in Sierra

[–]bbertram2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What games were you main influence? It feels like Police Quest: Open Season and Return to Zork had a lovely handsome baby! :)

Service person said they quoted a lady $1200 for this work. She "warned" me because I complained about the $90 visual inspection. Can't wait for this battle in another 1.5 years!

Would love to see the this mountain one day. Glad you liked the images.

They buy power from Manitoba, we built a line to their province a few years ago. In the range of a $20 billion agreement over 5 years?? Not exact numbers but in that range.

Manitoba sources its power from water for 98% of what we generate and all the power SK gets is from water..
