  • I discovered we had a trash panda sneaking in through our cat door to steal our dry cat food after the food container kept mysteriously opening overnight, and how my sloppy-ass cats were had not been leaving kibble-bits all over the floor. Freakin' raccoons even took those.

    They were involuntarily relocated to the next county over. Haven't seen them since.

  • Probably a tie between The Cat Returns and Pom Poko. I love the way Pom Poko is told, along with the various animation styles. And who doesn't love The Baron?

  • The Tesla Cybertruck is no longer America's best-selling electric pickup

  • Huh, That's weird, the last time I checked, the 328P had 1024b of EEPROM.

  • When it comes to writing code, perhaps. But specifically, I disagree on principle. There's a big difference between Firmware embedded directly into ROM that requires nothing beyond the MCU to run, versus Software that requires both a host environment to compute it, host hardware to store and manipulate it, and IO peripherals to make it useful. Totally opposite ends of the OSI model.

  • Complexity and propriety make for good income when it comes to fixing your broken fancy stuff; there's a good incentive to keep it that way. I praise the companies that make long lasting, well designed, and serviceable goods.

  • Technically it's not software, it's firmware, because it's a microcontroller that runs code directly.

    To my point, you don't need all the fancy bullshit that's baked into the car, the actual control systems require very little compute power.

  • You could run basic brushless motor and BMC firmware on a 99 cent 8 bit Atmel ATMega 328. That code requires almost nothing to run. It's all the extra shit baked in that needs all sorts of processing power.

    I also want a basic barebones infotainment-delete vehicle that just has power windows,locks,AC, cruise, and 4x4/awd. I don't want some proprietary gps system or a dashboard where I have to hit 3 menu buttons on a screen I have to look at, just to change a setting (how my wife's car operates and it's a complete shit user experience).

  • Seconding this. He sounds smart enough to understand "Hey, I need a few minutes, but I still want to talk".

    Raising our kids, we never used reasons like "because I said so", we always explained why we made the decisions we did, so our children learned reasoning and understanding as they grew. Kids are generally quick to learn, and can understand most situations if explained plainly. Talk to them with clarity and respect and you'll be surprised at the response you get.
