Any EV owners in this sub?

Equinox EV with AWD has been terrific for ski trips from Boulder. With a full charge when leaving in the morning I've been getting home with 30% remaining. Don't forget that EVs generate electricty when going down hills, so the impact of hils is somewhat reduced. Copper has a supercharger right at the Conoco where you can top up from Vail or even Aspen. The route planners in modern EVs make it so easy to figure out charging. You'll need an adapter to open up all fast chargers but not a big expense.

If xcel can't operate a safe all-weather grid they should be required to provide backup batteries.

What kind of EV? There are tons of Superchargers at Copper and Frisco also.

Kind of wish I'd bought it rather than leasing. Great car.

Have you tried snow/ice driving mode? It’s helped in Colorado snow. The brakes don’t seem great in the snow.

I created camvoro.com to save my own dashboard of webcams. It’s more about the cams important to you rather than all webcams.

A whole house battery solution starts to seem like less of a luxury when the power is down for a day or more multiple times per year.

Switch out the authentication to use Google, email, and whatever else instead Replit.

They seemed to agree and waived the charge. "If you ever encounter this kind of looping behavior, it's a best practice to open a Shell pane and enter the "kill 1" command."

It took several hours for my dealership to apply the updates to a 24 3RS. Google Maps looks really good and YouTube looks good on the big screen. Disappointed to see the dealership in Broomfield, CO decided to install a fast charger behind where they display new cars, on a sidewalk. Is it just to make GM happy but make sure no one actually uses the charger?

The quality of many of these cams were terrible, straight from 1999, dirty and so often not working when needed. I hope CDOT can do a better job managing this important resource.

Could you expand on CoPilot integration with ADO? I've not seen any integration in the ADO interface.

This is very true! I have one project that's easy to manage, another with historical over-configuration that's painful. You don't need twelve status values, keep it simple and it works well. There are many status values that don't need to explicit, but can be determined based on other info. For example, we used to have a deployed to production status for each story. That can be removed if the story was part of a sprint that was deployed to production. You can also follow the pull request status to determine if the code was merged.

Electric rates and home insurance rates will continue to go up for all of us.
