Hahaha same. He's 75+ now but still is going strong. On win11 it's a bit of a pain to create a desktop shortcut for it though so now once in a while I have to remake it for him :')

Ah okay, from what I skimmed it seemed like it was Tesla's money to keep bit then really they are in debt to those people. Makes sense!

Huh, that really seems illegal

In the store, I sometimes encounter containers (e.g., beer, water, shampoo) with a volume of 618ml. Why exactly this number? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I think you're on the right track. My guess would be that they have a 3% tolerance (uncertainty, idk) with filling so they fill 600 ml but statistically it might be as much as 618. Putting 618 on the packaging lowers the price per liter a little, compared to 600.
