One downside to Netscape not having chosen #Tcl as their web browser scripting language (which was considered) is that we have much less secure Javascript running. With Tcl you can create sub-interpreters and due to the dynamic nature of the language even core constructs and commands can be […]

Weather today is a touch brighter! Good for doing some proper work and loading it up with firewood (none of the other test drives show it actually doing anything other than driving along streets). #KGM #Musso #EV

A yellow pickup truck is parked on a grassy area surrounded by autumn trees. In the background, there are stacked firewood piles and a large water container. The sky is clear and blue, indicating a sunny day.

A couple early snapshots of the extended test drive we are doing in the #KGM #Musso #EV #pickup in some actual rougher terrain and where it will later be hauling some load. Unlike all the other test drives online. Anything you’d like us to still try and cover or answer? #cars

A yellow off-road vehicle parked on a gravel path in a forest. The surroundings feature tall trees and scattered autumn leaves on the ground. The scene is illuminated by the vehicle's lights, creating a cozy atmosphere in the dusk.
