After spending way too much time in a tesla this week I can say the following:
- It's a nicer car than any of the internal combustion cars i've been in
- It seems way worse designed than the BYD we got on our last road trip but the longer range makes it the better car
- A lot of features aren't thought out well
- The user interface is awful and breaks some of the most basic UX rules
- The "AI" that is supposed to control the whole car in areas where that is legal is embarrassingly bad and I wouldn't trust it to even just park the car
- Modern cars have neat safety features that should be mandatory on all vehicles sold
- Cars are awful, trains are cool
Driving in the netherlands is so much nicer than in germany and I'm not even in control of this car
We'll reach our destination with -56% charge left
I spoke Dutch with Dutch people today for the first time ever (offline).
Yes, it was only a two word interaction but I heard them, understood what they were saying and came up with the correct response.
I'm kinda proud of that
Oh, come on firefox
Introducing HIStamines, allergies for men!
Also now available: Hertamines, the exact same thing but 3x as expensive and the packaging is pink now
I wonder in how many languages the word for the Netherlands is plural and in how many it's singular
I was quite surprised to learn that the dutch word is singular
The two genders: Person with skirt and floating person with skirt
Every time I go somewhere by car, I'm surprised by how slow doing so actually is.
ICE trains have really spoilt me
