    Slate Fleet Work Trucks Rolling Out This Year (says Head of Fleet Sales)

    Customer: I was expecting my order yesterday and it never came. Amazon Super Prime: Our system shows you were to have died 8 days ago. Someone from Amazon should be by shortly. Please answer the door and close your eyes real tight....

    How times change..

    What if the manual isn't fancy but plai--- oh, that's not what the F is for?

    Anyone else burned out on all the Slate Videos?

    This conversation reminded me of a backend development engineer talking about The Saluting Twitter Guy:

    ELI5: LFP Batteries and Cold Weather

    The cranks posting that weren't the result of a trillion dollars of capex , their takes were not being sold as the next industrial revolution, they weren't poisoning poor communities to post them, and tinfoil posting on Usenet wasn't serving as the only thing keeping the economy from being...

    ELI5: LFP Batteries and Cold Weather

    So again, either LLMs are a poor choice to find information or no one above the Mason Dixon line can charge their Slate for a few months out of the year. Edit/P.S.: Holy hell are we cooked as a species if people don't get away from these damn things..

    New Event added: July 11-12, 2026 - New York, NY

    No LLM (they're not AI) required. This tech has been available long before any of that garbage.

    Max speed - 90mph?

    There will be plenty of Propagandhi, Bad Religion, various Fat Wreck acts and 90's hip hop to drown out the people yelling out their passenger windows as they fly by to my left...

    Max speed - 90mph?

    I can all but guarantee I'll never sniff 90 mph. I'm very much a "set the cruise at the speed limit in the rightmost lane and chill" kinda person. Worst. Anarchist. Ever. Edit: I should add, in Ohio, the speed limits max out at like 70 if I remember correctly.

    ELI5: LFP Batteries and Cold Weather

    Nah, I'd rather get a correct answer. I figured someone here might be well versed enough in battery chemistry and might be able to break it down into simple terms for a lay person.

    PREORDERED!! 🙌 Have You?

    I wonder if your accessory/addition choices affected the delivery windows

    ELI5: LFP Batteries and Cold Weather

    I've been seeing a lot of posts about how the batteries they've chosen have historically had issues in cold weather. I know nothing about batteries. 1) What kind of issues does this cause? Is it just decreased range in the short term, or are there long term deleterious effects as well? 2) How...

    Mods to Increase Tow Capacity

    I was in the same boat - I was originally looking at the Telo before coming to Slate, but the price tag didn't agree with what little sensibilities I have.

    Tire thoughts: air pressure sensors (TPMS) and alternate spare tire options

    I'm probably taking a later delivery than most here, but maybe we'll pass each other on 90 someday lol

    Tire thoughts: air pressure sensors (TPMS) and alternate spare tire options

    My bad, I usually read 404 Media in an RSS reader and forgot that there's a paywall outside of that. Like I said originally, the idea that TPMS itself is going to be much (if any) of an additional privacy violation on top of the already existing mass surveilling ALPR & FLOCK cameras that are...

    If your laziness extends beyond the internet, I assure you it would.

    Tire thoughts: air pressure sensors (TPMS) and alternate spare tire options

    "I'm not going to bother reading what you've gone out of your way to find for me, but I'm gonna call it bullshit anyway because the headline doesn't contain the entire text and concept...." Are you always this useless or do you save it for us here?

    https://www.404media.co/this-company-will-add-phone-airpod-and-smartwatch-trackers-to-license-plate-readers/ Granted, of *course* your TPMS would be associated with your license plate, and your other devices (phone, the tablet you mount, your watch if applicable) will be just as traceable...
