Do I look like I know what a jpeg is?

That’s a great way to do it, but that solution excludes a lot of people renting or in condo HOAs that don’t have easy access to overnight charge points in their complex’s or city’s lots. Hopefully those missing pieces are addressed soon so EVs feel like an option to everyone driving an ICE car, not just homeowners with garages.

I know I’m not in the UP anymore whenever I start seeing these on Wisconsin and LP road trips lol

Fortunately I don’t think you’ll have to wait too long. I’ve been using Memmy in Test Flight since really early builds and it’s extremely impressive how mature and feature rich this app has gotten. The last update (which are usually daily) made themes customizable to the point where I basically have the app looking like how I had Apollo customized. It’s close to being fully reviewed and approved for the App Store.

Jag planerar att resa till Sverige igen under jul :) (förlåt - min svenska är inte så bra)

Jag har läst att klimatet är liknande på grund av “The Gulf Stream” (not sure what you call it in Swedish, it’s the warm water current in the Atlantic Ocean)

Having lived in Sweden for about a half year and visited a few other times (study abroad and lots of family there), geographically the whole country kind of reminds me of the midwest (barring the more frozen part way far north where the trees get smaller). The more wooded and snowy parts of the north remind me of the upper midwest, the south more akin to the large rolling fields of the farming parts of the midwest. Vänern feels like a Great Lake. The archipelago filled Baltic coastlines remind me a bit of the rockier Lake Superior coastlines of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. I could see why my grandpa and many other Swedes felt comfortable emigrating to this part of the country about a century ago.
