General Motors says it has updated the software in its electric vehicles so its customers can finally use Tesla’s Supercharging network.

There's a BioWare game I keep coming back to when I think about the several hours I spent playing Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and it's probably not the game you're expecting me to say.
