It just keeps going; from almost a dozen Trackmania accounts, to forum posts, to YouTube comments. A lot to follow to keep it all straight. I feel like I need a spreadsheet to watch this video.

Or at least some lights. I think I recall someone saying they would be deployed during orbital night, so hopefully they’ll be visible somehow.

Impression seems to be that they've cleared the issue and are proceeding towards launch.

Exciting!

Update: hold in the count apparently.

Excited to see mock Starlink deployment, hopefully.

Some of these games get quite long, so still haven’t gotten back through the 1-3 remasters yet, but happy that these are out now too. For whenever I can get to them.

Minor correction: you have the wrong community address under the third item in your “For right now” section. Should be !196@lemmy.world I think.

Wouldn’t that be 60 Hz without a rectifier, and 120 Hz with one? If the voltage crosses zero twice per cycle, but goes negative only once.

What sort of horsey reasons? Now I’m curious.

The range and charging leave a lot to be desired for many applications, but the bikes themselves seem to be quite nice.

My concern is that finding chargers will be even more difficult than it already is since I don’t think there is any DC charging support. So none of the side-of-the-highway EV charging stations will work, and you’ll specifically have to seek out a level 2 charger next to a coffee shop or something. Just makes any travel longer than the ~130 km range even more hopeless.

If I didn’t already commute everywhere locally by bike, I would definitely consider something like this though.
