Conversely, the average FOSS programmer has no idea how to either design for simplicity or document for the novice.

Where to source these?

Just from the summary, I’m nearly certain this would be better as a web article.

This all sounds great, but everyone should keep in mind that we have NO way of verifying that the OP does not work for an intelligence agency.

Windows have a significant negative effect on aerodynamics at higher speeds. And of course it’s also very noisy.

I’m about 600 miles into my IONIQ 5 XRT. I didn’t want the XRT but by the time I got to the dealer after their last pre-Krasnov-Tariffs delivery, the IONIQ 5 Limited had already sold and what I now have was my only option.

I’m pretty happy with everything but the color, which is black. Also my inability to figure out how to tell the car “PLEASE VENT OUTSIDE AIR IN WITHOUT CONDITIONING IT IN ANY WAY.” Anyone got insight there? I’ve got at least another month of decent weather that doesn’t need to tax the batteries.

Very excited that my solar installer, who is about to put batteries in at the house to back up and enable grid-free usage of last year’s solar panels, says they can install a generator transfer switch that I’ll be able to use with the IONIQ’s bi-directional charging! Not a huge win for now, but the car’s battery is as big as the $35k worth of batteries I’m about to add to the house.

Ultimately I’ll sell the IONIQ once I can take delivery of my Telo Truck, and given the tariff-raffery going on here in the US, I expect I’ll be able to sell the XRT used for as much as I bought it for.

Depends if it was built originally as a gas fireplace. If it was converted from a wood burning fireplace to gas, it can be converted back.

You could also remove it completely and turn the space into a secret storage room!
