What insurance companies? They all backed out of Florida years ago. Now it’s state funded home insurance footing the bill.

Additional reason along with what others have said: my mom has been massively consuming books on Prologue. It’s easier to keep her on a single app than to switch her to ABS or Plappa.
I’ve been using Plappa while waiting for Prologue. Pretty solid app so far.
It’s been the Prologue developer’s next biggest priority on their roadmap. Apparently it’s coupled with the v4 Swift rewrite. I just saw it in the subreddit posted about 3 weeks ago.
ABS TestFlight is constantly full is one reason lol.
I’m looking forward to when Prologue v4 comes out and finally supports ABS. After that, I can finally move myself and my family to ABS and I’ll be one step closer to removing Plex.
Yep, you forgot Palo Alto’s GlobalProtect telemetry allowing for remote code execution. A perfect 10.
One thing to keep in mind with ALL EVs when shopping: the advertised mileage is under certain conditions. The estimated mileage shown in your dash is under certain conditions.
The number you really need to keep an eye on is the estimated miles per kW. The Ioniq 6 has a 77.4 kWh battery on the SEL model (minimum model I would recommend), so at highway speed it was estimating me between 2.5-3 miles per kW. So for highway speed, my estimate is about 193-232 miles before empty. I actually calculated it while charging up yesterday and the miles per kW meter was fairly accurate, while the estimated remaining miles lagged behind significantly due to my largely short commute miles.
Your highway mileage will always suck. That’s why you must plan ahead accordingly.
The other thing I recommend…if you are looking now, lease, don’t buy. If you want to buy, wait for 2025 models with NACS plugs.
I cannot understate the impact Tesla has had on charging infrastructure. You will find many more NACS public chargers before finding CCS chargers (that work).
Edit: also, for the Ioniq 6: digital green exterior is the best color imho, but the green shows up best after either paint age or the right lighting. Everyone called my car black when I first bought it.
Bought mine back in October. Tesla was permanently off the table, first because of Elon, then second from all of the QA issues, shoddy quality, and months long waits to fix anything needing parts.
I went for a Hyundai Ioniq 6 instead. Absolutely love it.
Have you seen his diaperbutt? Pretty sure he’s already incontinent and just hiding it.
My personal preference is Patriot flash drives, and has been for the past decade. I’ve got 3 older flash drives that I would commonly use, and they were very reliable.
I just recently bought this one, as I was looking for a drive that would take full advantage of USB 3.2 speeds. It definitely does, I get 300+ MB/s writes regularly on it.

HPE does not get any ink money, that went with HP Inc. HPE only operates in enterprise spaces (servers and network hardware).
Gotta love stirring up old controversies for views because it’s fashionable to hate Twitter right now lol
Edit: I guess people didn’t have the healthy dose of skepticism that I felt seeing this. The Dexerto article delivers very little new information; this was a known issue back in August 2023. I suppose Dexerto, a website known for spinning up drama for views, will keep reposting this same information every time Japan has an earthquake. Hating on Twitter is fashionable, so Dexerto’s going to use that to gain views to their site.
Evaluate your sources, people.

Tesla’s plug. Nearly every auto manufacturer has announced changing to it in future EV generations.
Fair enough, I went lease because everyone’s going NACS soon.
I just leased an Ioniq 6 from a Hyundai dealership end of October. The salesperson was great, but she didn’t know anything about EVs, especially their own. She even admitted it was the first one she’s sold.
I went back a week ago and found the same 5 Ioniq 6’s sitting there. I’m pretty sure they’ll stay there for quite a while.
I went full EV a month ago with an Ioniq 6. Love it so far.
Looks like this is still routing through dealerships, not direct to customers:
The structure still rewards dealerships, unlike the direct sales models that completely sidestep the business model. When vehicles go on sale at Amazon, the local Hyundai dealer will be the seller of record.
It’s also been archived for a year with no revamp in sight.
