If fusion 360, solid works, OR solid Edge ran on Linux I'd deal with the annoyances.

From the screen grabs, Since when is a legally street parked RV a homeless encampment? Looks like picking low hanging fruit for campaign talking points.

They just need to provide zero customer support, no updates to IP addresses in Oregon, etc. No need to prevent people from using devices they own, just stop transacting.

You know where this is going, can't trust the vote of a misinformed voter, so... No vote until the government figures out what information you need for deciding on further changes to government.

It's Oregon, with a population of a whopping 4 million across the entire state, so you know what, maybe actually cheaper to cut the state off than to establish DIY supply chain for repairs parts that will undercut your whole product portfolio.

What an awful name: I immediately thought it might be related to Ubisoft and had to look it up to sanity check my feeling of absolute revulsion. Such a good idea but the sentiment of that name won't do it any favors.

Only cheaper in small volumes, not in every car everywhere volumes.

You can use the same electricity you'd use to charge an electric car to separate water, but basically you're saving the problem of having to deliver that power to every supercharger station at the time of your convenience, which is the biggest hurdle.

I live in the area with the most electric cars of anywhere and our power costs have passed the point where $6/gallon gas in a regular car is actually cheaper per mile than charging a Tesla.

ALL the power infrastructure needs to be replaced to handle multiples higher demand just to keep up.

No they've just been subsidizing an inferior technology (batteries might be better if we had room temperature superconductors, plus the hurdles for hydrogen are so much smaller and it doesn't rely on digging hundreds of millions of tons of rare earth metals out of the ground just to replace all the vehicles on the road today)

Battling aliens on a different planet. Is that too much to ask for?

Tradespeople, they generally own their own tools and bring several boxes to even a basic job, plenty of jobs where you don't need a dedicated truck.

My time in Paris was before we had kids, so I don't know about the logistics there, but in NYC where I did not even think about owning a car for years it's Very difficult without a car, and there are no more than a few neighborhoods with everything is actually available locally.

Also anyone just starting their business who doesn't have a purpose built vehicle yet - breaking into catering, flower shop, etc.
