I think you may have Europe confused with Japan.

There are loads of viable alternatives these days with both legacy auto manufacturers closing the gap and a raft of new EV manufacturers joining the market, mostly from China.

I sold my Model 3 last month and took delivery of a new Polestar 2. The only features that I've lost in the switch are the built in dashcam (had to install my own instead) and using my phone as a key (which is supposed to be fixed in the next software update). Other than that, the feature set and specification of the two cars is pretty similar. Except my new one has twice the battery capacity.

We refer to it as kew-bee-cuttle

Play stupid geopolitical games, win stupid prizes...

Sold my Model 3 yesterday. In a sane world, where Tesla is not run by a fascist, I would have considered getting another one as my ownership experience was generally pretty positive.

Instead, my new Polestar arrives next week.

I have a IIIXe (very similar to the one in OP) somewhere. Really limited in what it could do, but very cool for the time. I also have a later model Zire somewhere that had enough horsepower (with a mild overclock) to play Quake.

Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid.

Our cat ushers us into bed when it's near bedtime. If one of us is playing games late or otherwise up past midnight she will literally meow non-stop and chase us into the bedroom, it's mildly annoying sometimes but very sweet haha. Then she'll spend a few minutes with us in bed making biscuits before buggering off elsewhere, job completed.

As a developer myself I'm not sure if I would trust any application to safely handle a configuration that has become invalid due to a breaking change, especially not an app that is still under active development! Better safe than sorry.

Immich has completely replaced Google Photos for me, love it!

My only bugbear is that it is updated very frequently (what a nice problem to have!) which in my case requires a manual once-over of my docker-compose file every time in case there are breaking changes.

Yeah I can imagine it taking time getting used to as a new player. I played the original as a kid on DOS so the UI is deeply ingrained lol.

Baldur's Gate 3 (~600 hours), BeamNG.drive (~550), Cities Skylines (~300), Space Engineers (~300), 7 Days to Die (~250) and Satisfactory (~230).

These are all stats from Steam and probably not fully representative. Satisfactory for example I used to play on Epic when I got it as a free game over there, probably logged at least another 500 hours or so on that platform.

My most played game of all time is most likely TES: Oblivion, which I started playing at release back when I was a teenager and had almost infinite free time. I'm not sure if I still have my oldest save to confirm, but I suspect it would be at least 1,500 hours, probably more across several characters.
