No, they want only two! They can’t handle it if everyone is the same, or if there is a rainbow of ways. To them, it must be two, no more or less! It must be binary!
Edit: This is a very boring grey lenses to view our species. Our closest relatives is bonobos…
What’s more important? Stopping people cheating at games via technology or digital freedom to prevent all kinds power abuse? (Forced obsolescence, surveillance, anti-features, etc)
I don’t care that much about games to be honest. If they get caught cheating, how about just legal action?
My go to is still Hacker’s Keyboard. It’s great with Termux and me as good touch keyboard as I’ve had.
Even before that, who would want to be in part of America by choice? The health care horror show and massive inequality are but two reasons.
It’s worse for the economy if people have to buy and run cars because that’s money that could have spent elsewhere. It’s “lost opportunity cost” to have to have cars.
Bicycles also help reduce health costs. As does walking and good public transport.
I know what you mean, but it’s not like Voat the last time I left Reddit. There are nutters and instances full of nutters, but it seams Lemmy can self regulated better.
No point installing a charger unless it’s were you live. If you have to use public chargers only, an EV probably doesn’t work out cheaper. At least here in the UK. The public chargers seamed to have the cost set to match fossil fuel. About 70-80p per kWh. Telsa chargers are less, but who wants to give that man any money are all?
If you can’t charge at home with the cheap EV electricity tariff, not sure I’d suggest an EV yet. I get 7p per kWh and 3 miles per kWh. So that’s 2.33p per mile. For petrol to match that, at say, £1.50 a litre, you need a MGP of about 300. If you kWh is 70p though, you might as well use ICE for now. Unless you want an EV for planet or local polution reasons.
Telsa is the top end of the market, so these two are not like for like. There are now EV reaching price parity, or cheaper. The cost is mostly battery and the price of battery is come down a lot since EV started going mass market.
When buying an EV, you should do it on maths. If it will cost extra every month, compare that will fuel savings. For me it was £16 a day on diesel for my long commute in the large family van. Now it’s <£2 a day in the large family EV van. So it’s a big saving.
It’s UK, which at the moment doesn’t mean EU, but: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megger_Group_Limited
If EU car makers doesn’t get good at making affordable EVs, they will get wiped out. You’d be mad to buy an ICE car over EV at the same price. Dino juice costs so much more (x5-x10) to run (if you can charge at home).
Not for the planet. It burns dino juice. That also means 5-10 times the running cost.
The ones I met really don’t know anything else. If you got to the point of being a Windows power user (slight oxymoron), having to start again on another platform is enraging when it seams different for the sake of it. It seams like others are cheating when achieving more using something else. They aren’t playing by the same rules!
Similarly, if you don’t know anything else and don’t know Windows really either, change is scary. Basically humans don’t like change and will fight to keep things unchanged, rather than embrace and utilize the change.
Trump is basically the same as Erdogan, and Putin. Same network of “leaders”.
Absolutely. Google aren’t going to demand discoverability for their platform. ARM aren’t going to put it in either. Both are happy for things to go obsolete and be replaced just because of software. So it falls to regulators when the market fails.
The fact this YouTube shows the problem. YouTube is Google and an American tech monopoly. An independent Europe can’t be dependent on the US.
What hardware works probably for it to be a daily phone? Looks like none have the camera more than partly working and most have worse problems.
Pissed me off phones aren’t just like PCs. They shouldn’t need Device Tree and custom ROMs. We should be able to install whatever OS we want and be confident it can work.
Range is important, but so is cost. Teslas are too expensive for Leaf owners.
My 7 seat EV only does at most 150 miles. But even now, two years later, there isn’t anything else that comfortably fits 7 adults. Let alone not over twice the price. So 200 miles seams ok to me.
I agree standard charger connectors are important. But CHAdeMO is standard, just not in Europe or North America. Can’t blame the Leaf for not knowing that would happen.
The Leaf is also one of the very few cars, least in the UK, which can be using bidirectionally. https://www.indra.co.uk/v2g/
I don’t own a Leaf, but I respect what they did. You see loads of them here.
I’ve ran LineageOS until two years ago from when it was CyanogenMod on my S3. Been a Debian user a bit longer. ;-)
What it’s got over LineageOS is it sandbox stuff out the box, so you can compromise with Google Maps and things like Bank apps run.
For work, I need a satnav with traffic in it’s route planning. No matter how good Organic Map’s maps are. Also for work, I need a Bank app. I’m not really happy with GrapheneOS, but I don’t have a choice. It’s my least worse option. Unless I keep a GrapheneOS phone for work and maybe try a Mobian phone for home… When it looks day drivable…
Edit: oh and transferring files, Nextcloud or scp in Termux.
