Could lead to allowing alternative app repositories outside of just the App Store to keep Apple from gate keeping

Well this policy change is likely going to be US only.

Epic no longer has to pay apple 30% in the US, but they would like it to be that way across the world.

What Epic is proposing is if Apple makes the policy change for the whole world, they'll stop suing them over their obvious anti competitive practices. Doing so would avoid the risk of them losing future court cases and losing more of a grip that they have over their platform.

I don't think Apple will go for it, so here's hoping they lose more down the line.

Like what? And is that a common use case?

Furniture is what comes to mind

Or just put down a nylon sheet, put the dirt on top, fold the nylon sheet over it and bind it down. ... Buy a bus with removable carpet, then you can just hose it down as well.

Sure, you could do that, or you could use the right vehicle for the job.

There are many different rear door types and sliding side doors on the side that provide ample and easy access. This isn't difficult or complicated.

Until you want a pallet of something. Would be nice if that van had a removable roof so they could just drop it in there 😉

What it comes down to is that trucks are versatile and people like them for it. If you don't see utility in having open access, then that's fine, but a lot of people do.

• Sometimes you need to move a thing that is oddly shaped and doesn't fit within the confines of an enclosure
• Depending on what you're hauling, you may want separation between the cab and the payload. Like if I'm moving dirt, I'd rather not have it rolling around my cabin
• Easier to clean, just take a hose to it without needing to worry about soaking the cabin
• Access isn't limited to just the door, which can be useful when unloading something

With the motors and battery being on the backend of the truck, wouldn't that give you better traction on the back wheels over the front wheels?

You can get it equipped with tie bars, or hooks that attach to the linear mounts lining the inside

I think there is an option to upgrade the battery to have a 240mi range

Space Truckers (1999)

A comedy about truckers...in space.

It stars Dennis Hopper, Debi Mazar, and Charles Dance.

It's a tight 90min and a pretty good time. I'm not sure how I had never heard of it before.

Edit: whoops...realized I was in a horror sub after posting

Oh that's good to know.

Yup, looking at it, I see that it has broken them up into chapters and I didn't even realize it would do that.

I believe I got it to index multiple episodes automatically by including all the episodes in the file name.

Ex: Series Name - S01E01-02-03 - Episode Name One + Episode Name Two + Episode Name Three.mp4

I would like this for old cartoons that had 2 or 3 episodes in a time block

I had one of these for years, it grows like crazy if it's given the space. The branches will get tall and start to droop, then new branches will sprout in to fill in the new overhead space. Otherwise lots of trimming and pruning will expand it also.

I read this as "Command and Conquer in HTML" as I was scrolling past and got super curious before rereading and getting disappointed
