  • USA: Slate's New Electric Truck Will Cost Slightly More Than $24,950

    Jump

  • Never mind the low price, not having that shit built in is the killer feature for me, making it the only new car I would even consider buying. (It's just too bad they won't have a 4x4 version for another couple of years.)

    It is kinda good that there's an optional module available, though, because it means there's an interface that, in theory, a third-party module running Free Software could hook into.

  • No, I was following the human space campaign just fine (although maybe I didn't go far enough along it for it to take me to alien space "naturally").

    I've also picked up at least one non-randomly-generated quest from the

    Hai, namely, the one where you get the Anomalocaris.

    I've also made it

    through the Tangled Shroud to Avgi space, and maybe I'm legitimately on their main questline there (as I currently have a job marker for "Meet up with the Avgi Strike force at Navigeo Yards in the Symphony system" on my map)

    It's just that those last two things I mentioned, especially the latter one, don't feel all that fleshed out compared to the human campaign.

    I've wandered through the territories of a couple of other species, but they're either hostile or I haven't figured out how to talk to them yet.

  • Trump Threatens to Defund States That Don’t Make His Election Changes

  • I didn't say it shouldn't be done. Just that it's logistically and politically complicated.

  • It's not that simple. The tax money doesn't flow through the state; it is paid directly from companies and individuals to the Federal government. The state would have to figure out a mechanism to disrupt that process, and it would end up being a Constitutional crisis (not that we shouldn't have had several in the last few years already...).

  • We're talking about big enough numbers to whip out the scientific notation. Even counted in billions.

  • Or a trading grind, depending on your playstyle. I've barely ever mined in it.

    How are they doing on the campaign/storyline, BTW? Last time I played it (a year or so ago) I managed to capture a jump drive and explored a bunch of really interesting areas outside human space, but it really felt like I wasn't intended to be there yet and the story wasn't really ready for it.

  • Luanti (formerly Minetest) is a little weird, in that it's really just meant to be the game engine, not the full game. Mineclonia is basically a mod that adds back in all the extra mobs and whatnot Minecraft has.

  • Fixing a washing machine

    Jump

  • I am seriously considering engine-swapping it from a 3VZE to a 5VZE. Not just because of ODBII, but also because the 3VZE is apparently just about the only not-reliable engine Toyota ever made.

  • Ugh, pre-OBDII EFI. I've got a '94 4Runner that's been sitting because it doesn't run right, my usual mechanic just flat-out refuses to service it (because no ODBII), and I can't muster the motivation to dig into it myself.

    What car has built-in dashcams but isn't itself an enshittified nightmare?
