Guessing it's the Ranger Lightning instead of the Maverick EV. Personally I'd prefer the compact truck with bed capacity for 4x8 ft sheet goods.

Awesome job! Digging the small details like the relief cuts on the post bracings. Also cool bat box. I have bare earth around my garden shed and it's not too much work to keep it clear of weeds but depends on the type of soil.
Their designs are innovative and I hope they can execute on them because I think EVs are better when they don't just try to be like traditional ICE vehicles but with electric propulsion.
I think Canoo had some concerns about viability and needed to figure out manufacturing at scale. If giant companies like GMC and Ford are having trouble with adoption, startups like Canoo are in for even tougher sledding. Personally, I'm rooting for all of them though.
I thought GM reversed course and said they would revive the Bolt brand. Though their EV strategy seems to be changing constantly these days.

Same. Think they're pretty comfortable actually. Ours has become the main family vehicle and it's great all around, no complaints.
That's refreshing to see in a world of ever increasing enshittification. Wish more companies move in this direction.
Doing this now to our front yard. Besides all the benefits of not having to water, fertilize, or mow it, hopefully it will also attract pollinators and be much more interesting to look at than grass.
President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has pledged “deforestation zero” by 2030. His current term ends in January 2027. Amazon deforestation has steeply declined since the end of far-right President Jair Bolsonaro’s rule in 2022. Under that government, forest loss reached a 15-year high.
Government regulation matters and hence why voting is important. We all benefit from preserving the Amazon and yet the right is actively trying to profit from its destruction. What good is wealth if the planet becomes inhospitable?
Physical buttons are a must-have for me. Our Bolt EUV has them and I can reach for them without taking my eyes off the road and having to click through submenus to find what I need. Also love having the audio controls as paddles so I don't have to take my hands off the wheel.
Touchscreens are a cost cutting measure, not a better user experience IMO.
Somewhat related PSA. I used to have an unscreened window in my home office and started noticing birds would fly into it on occasion. Found out it's actually pretty common and can be fatal to the unwitting bird, so I put some post-it notes on the window to help them see/avoid it. There are ready-made products for this exact purpose as well. Both seem to do the job and cut down on collisions.
His solo stuff is great, though I'm an avid fan of his trio work as well. Just picked up Portrait in Jazz on vinyl and have it spinning now.
Stoked. I missed playing MGS3 when it first came out and am glad to hear this remake is exactly like the original because I hear it was arguably the best in the series.
