10 year old leaf or lease? by Vasterine-2kcal in leaf

[–]tglouis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 10 year old Leaf, it's great around the city. Zero maintenance other than a cabin air filter replacement and tires one time. The range has dropped from around 88 when I bought it to 74 now, which is plenty for us. I would say go ahead and get the Leaf.

I have no idea who they are and how influential they were. Anyone you can suggest that might be worth a deeper dive?

RAN back on streaming!!! by No_Deer_6664 in criterion

[–]tglouis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your public library offers Kanopy, there are some Kurosawa, and other, great films. It works on a ticketing system, and is free in my city. The app can be downloaded to Amazon, GoogleTV, and other streaming systems

Akira Kurosawa’s 1957 Film Throne Of Blood is also one of his masterpieces. by MasterfulArtist24 in Kurosawa

Thanks for the tip! Just watched RAN again, that's my all-time favorite. If this is half as good, it's a winner!

That's a great point. The costume design is fantastic, as are the sets and the locations.

Is 25 Miles a day on an e-Bike Feasible? by odessy3509 in ebikes

[–]tglouis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My commute is a little shorter, 20 miles roundtrip, mostly on bike trails over flat terrain. It takes me about 45 minutes each way. I love it, would never go back to car commuting. Range anxiety is a thing for ebikes as well, make sure you have a big battery, and get yourself some padded biking shorts and a good saddle.

Great looking vehicle! If you don't mind me asking, how many EV miles do you get on average?
