  • That’s not as bad as I thought. Do you still have to plan your route out to make sure you have a charger available? Do you ever get stuck waiting for someone to finish charging?

    I usually end up going 1,000 miles or so in a single day. Maybe stop to get gas 2 or 3 times for a couple minutes each time. Ends up being 13-16 hours, so try to keep the refueling to a minimum so it doesn’t carry over into another day.

    Not sure how I could charge in my family’s rural area or if they would even want me using their electricity even if it could use a regular outlet.

    Ideally I think I would prefer some sort of simple battery swap. Also would need another company, I wouldn’t buy a Tesla just because of Elon.






  • It was surprising for me how many searches I do in the opposite way. Thought I did hundreds per month, ended up being between 2,000 and 3,000.

    I am one of those people who constantly thinks of questions and looks it up. Which makes me think of another question.

    With Kagi I can actually find the answer though. On Google I could do several searches and still not find anything besides ads and ai generated fake content.







  • I would say guns are different because they are literally deadly weapons designed for the purpose of killing. However, the right to bear arms is also in the bill of rights and guns can be used to save lives in certain situations.

    Guns could be argued all day but really it’s a straw man that’s distorting the scope of the discussion, which is on Airtags.

    Airtags aren’t dangerous devices that need to be regulated. They are useful for tracking lost and stolen property, pets. They can’t directly harm anyone. I believe it should be considered as evidence for stalking, and using any tracking device to enable crimes should be an additional criminal charge. Using it without someone’s knowledge could itself be considered a crime, or grounds for a restraining order.





  • What do you feel like the cost was for you?

    I grew up in childhood locked in a room by neglectful and abusive people. No family because they exchanged me for groceries when getting investigated by police.

    When 18 I joined the military and became disabled. My unit went to Afghanistan. When I got out I had nobody or nothing in my life. It was me in an empty apartment sleeping on the floor. A month went by without interacting with anyone, a year, then two, it became a streak like it was an accomplishment.

    It’s been about 30 years total of isolation for me by now, including my childhood. I didn’t even have internet for most of that. I took up meditation 20 years ago after the military.

    Nothing feels real anymore, I have no sense of time or space. Life is an ever changing haze of moment to moment experiences. I can no longer determine if I am I cold or hot, tired, thirsty, etc. It all feels the same to me, I can see anything as multiple perspectives simultaneously.

    I think I have become a modern day version of a person who meditates alone in a cave for decades.
