Just found out about the new album by Giorgio Poi, co-produced by Laurent Brancowitz, guitarist of Phoenix. A beauty of an album, with a really sophisticated sound. 😍

bought a ticket saturday and took a red-eye sunday to nyc for under the k bridge. very tiring day and a half but worth it to see mala, overmono, and four tet.
replicated the conspicuously absent home assistant energy card as an iOS widget using scriptable.
all of the fruit trees are in bloom and humming with bees. we had our first dinner out on the deck this weekend. robins nesting above the porch.

yesterday we sold slug, the vanagon that we had for 11 years. feels weird to say about a car but it was a big part of our lives for a while and we’re definitely going to miss it.
re. the first trip: a winter cabin trip which i think is our worst case scenario. range wasn’t quite enough to get to Edmonton in one shot at -12C. battery preconditioning didn’t work because we were holding the in-car nav wrong and the maps were out-of-date. 30-50m stops were a bummer, but it’s not like we ran down to 0% on the side of the road. more shorter stops might be better since we could keep the battery in the fast part of the curve and have enough energy to precondition.
our first ev road trip was a, uh… learning experience… our second one, 2100km in 0-15C weather to the west coast and back, was much better. charging with mostly DCFC was $50 less than gas for the car it replaced, stops were at times we needed a break anyways, and I think we could avoid the single additional charging stop next time. thanks to BC’s relatively clean grid we emitted 7% of the CO2. home solar brings that down to 3%, and skipping the AB stop brings it down to 1%.
