Why would anyone ever expect any company to provide more support than they provide in writing? They are still trying to make a profit and not supporting a more than 10 year old device is perfectly reasonable. They only shipped 60,000 of the thing and it's got a GB of RAM. The second model, the 2 still has parts available ~9 years on. I'm really not seeing the issue here.

The concerns for range anxiety are well founded too. I had to rent a car the other day, and the only thing they had available was a Tesla model 3. Aside from the issues Teslas themselves have, the 90 miles I had to travel became an immediate concern because it was in a rural area and the town I went to literally had two chargers, and they were privately owned.

The 280 miles I was quoted as range quickly became 170, despite turning off the heat, not charging my phone, using cruise control at 3MPH below the speed limit, and changing all the settings I could conceivably find to turn down my power consumption. I wound up having to beg a private owner to let me use their charger because what would normally be a simple trip became a massive chore. My other option was waking up hours early to drive to a town 40 miles away where they had a super charger and leaving from there, also just barely making it back to the rental car return.

The time to charge the Tesla on a 220v charger btw was over 5 hours from 48%. Absolutely none of my experience matched that of the advertised and it's completely turned me off electric cars until they can start fixing some of these issues.

Either Sea of Stars or Baldurs Gate 3. Honorable mention for Tears of the Kingdom and Alan Wake II. Honestly just a fantastic year for games.

And yet they straight up ignore one of the biggest cell phone markets by not selling in the US at all.

I'm pretty sure this is going to directly violate Internet neutrality laws when the FCC votes them back into effect.

I'm really failing to see how these two things are related. A chess program and a window manager are two completely different things with wholely different functions.

This would be great if everyone wasn't waiting months for an invite

As opposed to bone-in tofu bites?

Road Redemption on Steam is this.

Are we reading the same thing? Netflix has more competition now than it ever has. When Netflix had cheaper prices when it has no competition than it does now. Piracy has been making a huge resurgence as well.

Google wave was sold off too, they absolutely do sell some things, just they prefer to take features and ideas to use in other products.
