You essentially see the desktop version zoomed out by default with tiny text. You need to zoom in, but the line length is still desktop sized so you need to scroll left and right a…

If you lease a car the owner of the vehicle isn't the driver, but the lease company itself. Tesla was contacted to provide the drivers name (as is their legal obligation) and when …

Yes, negative is rare, but I wouldn't say that it's overwhelmingly expensive. The median range is 15p-20p (60% of the time in December) and the UK "price cap" is about 26.35p. With…

I prefer the pricing model of TablePlus[0]. $99 for the current version forever with 1 year of updates. Once that expires you can keep using the last version you had access to fore…

Pretty much every electric car has charging stops built-in to the navigation. For some the quality of the data isn’t as high, but it will be there. Many like Polestars and Renaults…

Such an easily debunkable line with even the tiniest bit of critical thinking. You’re basically saying the drug companies subsidise a loss in Europe by over charging Americans, rig…

All makes sense. I presumed it was an oversight. It’s hard for me to conceptualise what a million tokens actually looks like, but I don’t think there’s a way around that aside from…

I completely get why this pricing is needed and it seems fair. There’s a major flaw in the announcement though. I get that the pro plan has $5 of tokens and the pricing page says t…
