It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Never mind the cargo capacity, I'm eyeing the possibility of filling that center void with a shitload of batteries, instead.

I did have to read the article to see if this was being made by the other PNY, you know, the memory and flash drive people. It isn't. That fills me with... slightly... more confidence.

If you think about it, batteries are really just cargo containers for all those angry pixies that make stuff go.

Manic pixies that burn your dick if you try to get with them.

Check out the Ride1up revv1. Similar idea, more sport, less cargo, but you can buy it and stuff in extra batteries now. ;)

What happened with them?? I hadn’t heard (I thought it was them at first too I was like huuuuh)

I’ve got a few flash drives from them from at 5-10 years ago and they still work fine I suppose
