Make a way bigger bucket list and actually start competing it.

No, I was late to the party… Only 26 days, but it feels like a month!

Yes, with a 10 year gap. There are too many good books to read to reread the ones I liked on the first read. Always reread the classics first.

Give Kubuntu a try. It is my favorite so far. It uses the plasma desktop though.

Took one on a test drive along with the EV6 and the Ioniq 6. Loved them. I have what I call analysts paralysis. That and the fact leasing is now almost equal to a payment has me waiting. I have been leasing 45k priced cars for the last 12 years at an average of $300/mo.

Agreed.

I remain a cautiously optimistic observer of the EV market. And if I do decide to take that plunge it will not be a Tesla. Even if he manufactured a perfect car, he has alienated me with his personality and rhetoric.

I have but they are not the best sources for unbiased information. Some worship Musk and he can do nothing wrong while others have dumped their Teslas even at a loss and either went back to ICE or found a better alternative. EV’s remind me of the beginning of the PC market. I had an Adam, then a Leading Edge Model D 8088 etc. Every year something better came out. 286, 386, 486 all seemed to make my new, best thing ever machine obsolete. If I lease an EV now I think it will be obsolete before the lease is up. I’ll remain on the sidelines for awhile.

Yes, I sat in a new model Y in the showroom and there was a gap in the dash. That was the best they had to show. The “decent” part is range and charging network. They work and get you where you need to go but Musk is a fragile rich prick that will never have enough money or power to satisfy his lust for such things.

Yet one more reason not to buy one of his fairly decent cars. I have 6 months left on my lease and want to try the electric world in retirement.

Please don’t call my employer, master musk…
