DDG (Bing I guess?) is pretty quick at that as well. 35 minutes later, your comment is already indexed. Though I can't speak to their speed with Reddit, who is actively hostile to non-Google indexers.

I think it's mostly from aerodynamics. Lowering the car could help but even just smaller rims, with the same overall diameter (rim + tire), can have a 15% impact on range. This Engineering Explained[1] video does an okay job with some

Weight has nearly no effect on range of an EV. The YouTube channel Aging Wheels has two good videos on this. Here he talks about towing, and he demonstrates loading the truck to max capacity makes nearly no difference: https://yo

SCE will screw you nearly as hard. We are on a tiered usage which is the cheapest they offer and it's $0.32/kWh and even at that rate the EV isn't much cheaper than the non-hybrid I replaced. I'd need to switch to a ToU

That's great to hear as a fellow Reverb G2 user. Starting with Windows 11 24h2 they dropped all Windows MR support. It looks like there's also a driver called "Oasis" now which restores functionality on Windows.

I can't promise how effective it is but Google Pixel phones have a built in scam detection feature in their dialer app. It uses a local LLM that runs on device and analyzes the phone conversation. Here's their support doc: https:

This depends on which seat you're in, which model, and which year. Some models have no emergency release in the backseat for certain years. Here's a model x, this feels pretty hidden to me: https://youtube.com/shor

Depending on your technical abilities, you can set up Frigate or maybe Scripted. Or possibly even just the Home Assistant integration. All of these would be self hosted options, accessible only by LAN if that's how you want it. The Reo

Are you talking about the feature "Quick Tap" in the settings where you can double tap the back? There's no sensor for that, they just use the accelerometer to detect that input. It's been incredibly unreliable for me.

DDG is definitely not better IME, and also relies heavily on Bing. I still use it as my default, it's good enough, but I mostly default to it to avoid the Google captcha hell. Here's a prior comment of mine explaining one poor sea
