Heh. You are welcome. This is how I found out too--a random discussion.

There's a company near me that is piloting a mobile charging service. https://www.sparkcharge.io/
When the charges on our thru-way all failed over Memorial Day weekend, they provided the emergency service. I heard they were also in talks with AAA to be something that a tow truck could carry, or some emergency service vehicle.
Solutions exist. Just not yet at scale.
My EV came with a compressor in the trunk. Last time I needed to fill the tires it worked fine.
I didn't even realize this until one day on the Nissan Leaf discussion boards, which led to a hilarious discussion of a whole bunch of us who had no idea we were carrying our own solution to this....
This whole spectacle is atrocious, but it's part of a series of atrocious nonsense. Worse streaming series evah.
Ah, right. I was wondering if we could go back to the golden age of science blogs as all the other social channels were imploding....
I was still posting at reddit until recently--but I noticed that even the top items in r/science are getting half the score they used to.
Well, as one of my advisors used to say in grad school: "Evolve or die". Nice to see you here too!
Hmm. My panels come with a 25 year warranty, I think. I wonder how to get someone to evaluate them. That said, our production is still in line with previous years during current year 7. But worth keeping an eye on.
This was interesting to me too:
The Fig. 5 shows expenses for replacement of damaged inverters which rise sharply as well after about 10 years of operation.
I also know our inverter came with a 10 year warranty. We should have it looked at around year 8 and make sure it's running right, and/or make a claim on that.

This point struck me too:
Reddit is under no obligation to make its API free. But, it seems, the company has overreached in enforcing the new policy. If its target is the largest AI firms, then it should focus on curbing their parasitic proclivities and not going after beloved and useful software its users and moderators depend on.
This is my feeling. I understand that it could cost something. But the eye-watering rates for the small fish and the speed of the extortion is the issue.
They should have been leaving earlier, the outcome was clear by last year. But when I saw recently that Block Party was going away, I knew that it was going to become hellish and untenable.
Let's make them welcome here....
Yah, Leaf 2016 model. I got ticketed by the city for parking the wrong direction. I tried to explain to them that they chose to site the charger in a way that caused this problem, but they said they didn't care and don't do it....
Verizon 5G, $35/month for the 300 mbps / 20 up plan (my needs are not huge, this does the TV streaming and the zoom meetings just fine).
Somerville MA. Was previously paying 3x that for crappy Astound service at half the speed.
