fyi, not just caregiving for the elderly... all caregiving has gotten more expensive. www.npr.org/2026/10/28/n...

imho, not that it would ever happen, Volvo should buy all of Polestar back and do a real big push to have the car and software made in Sweden.

shhh. 🤫 tried FSD 14 lite on our HW3 X yesterday. It drives way better than my mother-in-law, and a bit better than my spouse. Still makes mistakes. The new streaks count is stupid. It only goes to show how this version of FSD is inadequate or how relaxed the supervisor is ok with mistakes.

I was definitely an early adopter of new technologies/gadgets before getting married. For 19 years now, I have had to be a lot more selective. Not gonna lie. I am intrigued by the iPhone Duo despite its shortcomings for my daily use. I didn’t preorder and wish I can get one at the store tomorrow.

anyone willing to share some good news?

I really don’t like that these have minimal or no back, head or neck support. www.core77.com/posts/145699...

😢 … and this is why I think it’s a mistake to ban phones and watches at schools.

absolutely love the look of this Peugeot E-208 GTi. (Image credit: Peugeot) #ev

sigh. haters are gonna hate.

Ok, yep. I really admire those engineers at T and SX. youtu.be/r5vsHHPVhJg?...

Saw a Kia EV3 today! Not enough time to take a photo. It starts USD$29,890! I hope they sell like hot cakes!

That iX3 in my neighborhood. I appreciate that it’s an EV. The styling isn’t for me.

spotted a CyberCab robotaxi in Vienna, VA. Has a steering wheel.

😍 if both car and phone are updated but app still does not show up, rebooting the car may help. #rivian

Rivian Super cool. youtu.be/AzErJdWUDTE?...

Rivian has a new Ecto-1 mode going live tomorrow and they dressed up an R1 to look like Ecto-1 and also Bill Murray showed up

oh hm, this is the first time I’ve noticed Tariffs being a line item.

it saddens me to see that we, humans, generally cannot help ourselves to let good things be good, and have to ruin it all with bad behavior and what-ifs.

there are honestly some good to AI. but whatever good there maybe are being drowned out by bad actors and the repeated shouting of those bad things. one of my spouse’s uncle just became blind. having AI-powered glasses to help him guide his way around would be extremely helpful.

sigh. The Onion appears to be satirical but sometimes it feels like they have a portal into the future. Please please please don’t get complacent. Register. Vote. Vote Now if you can.

The best thing about the Helsinki metro is the little cartoon signs asking people to be polite. There’s a dog who hopes you won’t use so much perfume

so, will we go back to fracking and processing oil sands? @kairyssdal.bsky.social @carlquintanilla.bsky.social

They knew hatchbacks won't sell well. And they made it a limited run, meaning there will be limited long-term support. Their built-in software is lackluster and they don't have CarPlay/Android Auto to back that up. Can you blame people for buying it?

Good morning, Happy Sunday Funday! Happy Anniversary to Snoopy! The dog I always wanted. 🥰

76 years ago today, Snoopy made his first appearance in ‘Peanuts.’

just saw an iX3 in person in my neighborhood! 🎉

wtf. the person in front of me is watching videos while driving. 😞

Saw 2 customer R2s today in quick succession traveling in directions! Saw just one before that and that was on Wednesday. Before all this were all demo cars because our way to therapy is on the demo route.

Check out this chill dude we saw on the way home today from therapy.

Happy National Black Dog Day!! here’s Felix with his donut collar. He got ✂️ recently. 🫣
