And expensive to repair. I guess i just generally disagree eith this take, but agree on the minority.

I think the main problem is both cultural and systematic. Dealers didn't want or know how to sell them and culturally because they are gender affirming care/cultural objects it was always going to be a challenge. They made a lot of sense for contractors who don't haul since erev is far less reliable

I think you far overestimate the percentage of people who use trucks for hauling. I remember a stat for the bed said 90% don't use it. They are mostly just gender affirming care.

For those who actually need towing sure, but is a small minority, most people were well served by the EV variant...

Yup, absolutely downpouring had to avoid what seemed like new lakes on the road every few km. I'm in Vancouver, Canada, but from my understanding your likely getting the similar atmospheric river we are...

...plus support my local bookstore though LibroFM.

Basically I treat physical copies as collectibles (which I do read), and otherwise it is relegated to digital since it becomes simply clutter (or waste) if I do not want to read or display them.

I can only speak of my own experience as a reader, but I can say I have no interest in paperbacks. I buy hardcovers for the books I truly care about owning, otherwise I buy ebooks or simply go to the library.

Audiobooks I buy through LibroFM so there is no DRM and I can host them on AudioBookShelf

Go ahead and try, the norm has become free recipes/content. Not enough people want to pay so ads have been the unfortunate solution.

Same as video on Youtube,blogs, etc... Beyond ads, there are other issue like SEO,scrappers and now LLMs.

Avoiding reality does not benefit you or your "argument".

*until it needs to make money to stay online and to pay for the labour.

I note this as someone who believes LLMs are generally great, especially for coding, but also as someone who's wife has a food site.

While I get your point of simply wanting the recipe, this robs those creators of their income. I don't know the solution, but this doesnt seem to be it...

My only problem with that logic is I wouldn't want it stolen 😅

Seriously though, I'm excited to play the update!
