I’m definitely no battery engineer, so correct me if I’m wrong, but… wouldn’t a 100-mile-range battery pack have a shorter life span than a 200-mile pack under the same usage since its charge/discharge cycles would be deeper in terms of %, and possibly more frequent because of the reduced range?

Love reading stories like this, imagining myself in their shoes, as I am a web dev. Thanks for posting.

Can we all put our clicks together and make an effort to erase the swastika around (70,857)

Is this something I should Google, or…. maybe I shouldn’t?

@Tygr @herpderpedia Kbin does not support !community links just yet, but it's in the works on some level. Linking to Lemmy communities from here can't really be done without the full URL, which does mean one would have to provide two links - one that works on Kbin, and one that points to the original instance.

In related news, linking to Kbin magazines is currently a bit borked as well, because the only other syntax that works (@magname) is assumed to refer to a user account and not a magazine.

This is a very contentious topic right now, and it’s not clear at the moment whether votes will remain public or be made private. There are some very vocal proponents on both sides.

Do you need to? No. But I do have accounts on both and will keep it that way, because they’re just completely different experiences and Kbin isn’t to a point yet IMO to fully replace Mastodon on the client level.

Mutemath.
Drummer Darren King (an amazing drummer btw) abruptly quit the band for good in the middle of a tour one year, and while they did find a replacement for him to finish out the tour, that was the thing that started the unraveling of the band. It wasn’t long before all the remaining members left, leaving the founder and lead singer, Paul Meany, alone with the name. He’s tried to do some small things with it since that time, but he admits (as he should) that Mutemath’s real existence is in the past now.

IMO a full third of Mutemath’s essence was Darren King’s drumming. It made sense for the band to cease existing without him or someone like him. The replacement they used on the tour was ok but just not the right fit. He (seemingly) couldn’t do what Darren did.

Those kinds of things are slowly being ironed out, I believe.

I’m not so sure, given that it’s more of a Twitter replacement. I think it would capture more potential Mastodon users than Kbin/Lemmy users.

I see you’re on a different Kbin instance. Was this intended to be a threaded reply, out of curiosity? Because it shows up as a top-level comment on the post for me.
