Tesla had lidar before

Pretty sure they had RADAR, not LIDAR

I also agree we won’t get a RWD variant here - does BMW sell any non-AWD vehicles here anymore? I don’t think A/4WD is a necessity though. I currently have a RWD Model 3 which is an absolute champ in the winter. Only issue is low clearance over the snow when it’s truly deep in the neighbourhood, which isn’t a RWD issue. I regularly drive on rural highways for work. Throw on some Hakkas and it’s all good. Can’t get its nose out of joint even if you try. Might get it to wiggle its butt a teeny bit if you stomp on it in a turn but traction control is very good and slip start gets me unstuck from parking drifts every time.

Greetings, fellow pedant. As a child of the 80s who loved some D&D, I never made it past the first scene. Fireball is an area of effect spell. No need to roll to see if you hit.

I think it was more that the unibody part didn’t work so good when trying to do truck things - not the structural battery piece? Dunno, not an expert.

I was thinking they could use the battery pack as a structural component, but then I remembered that’s exactly what they tried with the Cybertruck and that absolutely didn’t work!

Aspirational of you to think we are all going to “live through” (survive) it.

I used it for almost a year at the lowest tier, then got the couples plan more recently and it has high spouse approval factor, even though there was some initial setup

Dunno. Check their about page, but appears to be through GCP?

Kagi. Privacy focussed, no ads, and excellent results with options for sorting preferred sources to appear at the top, or not. Costs money but man, it’s fast and good in the way Google was back in the day. Some plans also include anonymous access to a variety of LLMs though they are older models, and if they can run them locally, they do. Really liking it.
