  • U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday

  • I'm calling the lenders greedy. BNPL is similar to payday loans, taking advantage of people who don't have money, making it cost more to be poor. The people who use BNPL are just being taken advantage of and suffer because of their situation.

  • The thing about the cab over design is the wheel sits near below the seats. This is an idea of what it would look like without the passenger seat.

  • I hear that, but I think it would add more complexity and proprietary nature to it. By using a tablet we can easily display whatever we need even then deepest diagnostics of the vehicle. With an analog speed dial all it would do is just display speed, and need to be proprietary due to the shape and fitting, which all increases costs and complexity.

  • Could do something like this, modular tablet that can be easily replaced, extremely cheap, and may not even need to be proprietary.

  • Awesome thanks for commenting. The idea I'm trying to nail down is the absolute cheapest, most utilitarian, reasonably safe, and advanced technology. Absolutely no bells and whistles, no dashboard display, no infotainment. Most valuable cabin comforts like heat and air conditioning would be necessary. Can use wired (usb-c) or bluetooth smart phone connection to display vehicle diagnostics. I'm starting with the outer concept and I think this is very close to what I'm aiming for. It may take another iteration or two though. A phone wouldn't be absolutely necessary to operate the vehicle, could run blind as long as transmitter is present.

    Something like this:

  • It really should be called "buy now, pay more later". When are these greedy fucks going to learn that it's not good when consumers don't have money to spend? If all their money goes towards interest payments then we see a collapse in demand.

  • I needed to make a small change and realized I wasn’t confident I could do it.

    Wouldn't the point be to use AI to make the change, if you're trying to do it 100% with AI? Who is really saying 100% AI adoption is a good idea though? All I hear about from everyone is how it's not a good idea, just like this post.

  • It's meaningless when the government is in so much debt that they can't even pay down the interest. Go ahead, print more money.

  • as consumers looked for greater flexibility in managing their holiday budgets

    Yea, that's a really nice way to put it.

  • Yes that's a part of the reason I selected it, efficiency and cost being a part of it. The decision to include roof-mounted photovoltaics was driven by the need for energy resilience at job sites rather than primary propulsion. The frame’s architecture is inspired by the "cab-over" utility of traditional Japanese Kei trucks, modernized with a "monobox" wedge profile to improve aerodynamic efficiency. The battery storage is integrated into a skateboard chassis configuration located flat between the front and rear axles.
