Hi! Thanks to the devs for their great work with this app. I've enjoyed using it as my primary since the latest update. I was wondering if there are plans to implement different theme (highlight) colors instead of the standard blue. I like the blue just fine, but would sure love other options to choose from like Lemmy's mint green. I imagine other users would welcome this option as well. Thanks for the consideration! ✌️ 🙂

I was in the 90s and am again with the Taylor & Redondo run. I plan on picking that Dan Mora cover up. FYI if you weren't already aware of it, [email protected].

Same! Kudos to devs and I’ll try using this as my main app for a bit and see how it goes.

Thanks for sharing that! And a private Piped video at that. You get a 🫡 .

I understand your comment but it is just a hypothetical question sans need. :)

There are reputable studies out there that can answer your question.

Good point. Well-maintained ‘02 Honda CR-V here with 186k miles. I bike to work when weather and climate conditions allow which is most days May–November where I live. We got a second hand Tesla last year because my wife commutes a lot for work. With the latest news, I may try and hold onto the CR-V for even longer than next 2–3 years.

If it works for someone’s specific case than this is most certainly the way. 👊🏻

If presented with a binary choice between minimizing carbon footprint with privacy-evasive EV or sticking with more polluting ICE vehicle and keeping privacy, what would you choose? Which choice is more ethically sound? What is more important between mitigating human-caused climate change or preserving individual human privacy? 🤔

 

The release of Dune 2 has been delayed until March 15, 2024. Bummer but I get it. :(

 

I saw the Lynch movie around 10 years old. Where was this when I was a kid? ;)

 

My wife and I currently own one EV. We live in the U.S. Midwest where winter months do have an impact on battery performance. Our other car is my older 2002 Honda CR-V. It has over 187k miles on it, but has been very reliable, usually just requiring general maintenance and replacements as the years and miles have come. We have two older dogs that occupy the back of the car for longer road trips. Given announcements of solid state batteries arriving in a few years or so, I am deliberating between buying a compact SUV EV within a couple years or waiting for 3–4 years to see of solid state batteries have arrived in vehicles from good automotive brands. The Ioniq has caught my eye since last year and I’m curious if any current owners wish to share their experience or thoughts on the vehicle after owning it for some time. Thanks!
