There has been some serious leaps in terms of quality. It couldn’t read human writing or half the fonts for that matter like 5 years ago, let alone 20.

Either you think the situation is okay or you don’t and shouldn’t enable it through your behavior. Simple as. That being said, I usually tip (and well) from shear pressure. I think the whole vibe is gross though.

If the job didn’t come with the tip, they wouldn’t be able to hire. Not tipping is the actual solution.

I only use Lemmy if I’m on the clock. Im probably one of the few who’s comments are high enough quality to justify paying for them. Granted, he doesn’t know he is paying for it but my boss might join Lemmy one day and get to see the fruits of my labor/his money.

Yes it is, and that’s a step to take if you can, but no one is saying you are a bad guy if you don’t.

It’s being an oil industry mouthpieces that is the problem.

That’s new, there is also used. But the fact is you can’t compare it to your junker since, like I said, no one is asking you to switch right away.

The 7k seems like a lot but it isn’t since you get it back quickly with the savings on maintenance and gas.

Literally no one expects that of you. We just want the bootlickers to stfu and stop being part of the problem.

The difference between the cheapest EV and cheapest ICE is 7k currently, the savings on gas cover it.

Oh wow, another EV thread with a bunch of oil industry mouthpieces telling us how the studies are wrong and what we didn’t think of. Thank you Mr. Shell, I almost forgot not everyone has a charging point at their house and it takes time to charge an EV.

Color me surprised.

Why are they destroying them tho, I’ll pay for the shipping.

The comments under the post is content that other users contribute to. It’s very frustrating to be having what amounts to a conversation in the comments just for OP to thrash the whole thing. There’s also the problem that a lot of deleted posts are bots probably building a “unique” dataset to sell after (just a hypothesis).

No reason why we can’t just have the body and the username removed from the post while keeping the comment section imo.

So is there a way to bypass this or is basically everyone using a phone that isn’t one of the fancy Linux ones essentially fucked?

We need to make aggressive nationalization cool again. A thank you card, a pizza party and a “you won at capitalism” medal. Throw them in prison if they complain, China does it with their CEOs.

Yes, well that’s a fantasy when it comes to AR. It’s augmented reality, it needs to see the reality to augment it, else it’s just a static screen in front of your face. It isn’t anything new or interesting if you don’t have the camera in the front.

It’s an earogenous zone. Feels quite nice.

There was barely a legitimate use for smart phones at the time either. Times are changing and they are betting on smart glasses being the next big thing. I tend to agree with them to an extent but the current implementation leaves to be desired. There are still clearly some large hurdles.

The horror. It can generate stuff I can find through a simple Google search. I personally don’t like censorship, especially since it constantly bleeds into the simpler stuff.

That or he let Hamas attack. They knew about the plans more than a year before it happened.

It’s probably because they come on sale so often. I have a few games from them I haven’t installed yet. It’s hard to resist 5 dollar classics.

You have to be pragmatic in life and play the hand you are dealt. I’m a commi at heart but not playing the capitalist circus just makes you homeless, not smart.

I refuse to have a phone line. I only get one for a month when I’m looking for a job. Got tired of paying a subscription fee just to get spam calls. All my communication is done through messaging apps and the only time I don’t have access to wifi is when I’m driving.
