Unlike many other examples, Barbarossa and Zitadelle at least looked decent on paper, and had to be countered through massive battles of attrition, which is not exactly the highest form of strategy.

LordFerret Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Speaking of things electric... It appears that Tesla 3 owners are finding a 40%+ reduction of range in cold weather. Guess people have forgotten that batteries don't perform well in the cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears that Tesla 3 owners are finding a 40%+ reduction of range in cold weather. Guess people have forgotten that batteries don't perform well in the cold. I've noticed that with my cellphone battery. Would it be worth it to spend some of that Tesla battery power to warm the battery? I would also think they're eating up their range by warming the cabin. Bundle up and turn off those heated seats and steering wheels for maximum range! I noticed butane lighters don't like to work when really cold either. My wife is complaining that it's snowing all around the Greater Vancouver area except here in our corner of the Fraser Valley. I'm complaining about that because I don't want to drive 50 km to work in the snow tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why I hate busses is usually due to their complex network and routing. At least with trains, trams and/or trolleybusses I can be sure they have to follow a certain path.

For him, it's a bit of a novelty, a toy. He's mentioned the mad acceleration, and will not allow his wife to drive it. The news about this shortfall is available via Google, if you're wondering.

richfiles Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 (edited) Same... @ExpandDong... I worked from 5AM till 8PM yesterday... Today, I let myself sleep in for a solid 8 hours... Nope! I just got up, went back to bed another two, and then lazed the rest of my day away. Honestly, i went to the store with a friend, just to make myself move.

Benjamin Kerman Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I'm annoyed by my lack of motivation to work on a (hopefully public soon) project. Chalking it up to a lack of understanding of what I'm supposed to be accomplishing in this one phase, but I suppose I'll just have to power though it.
