That is like… half a car, if you count wheels and seats. Maybe a unicycle?

Sounds like it kinda could have been better, too…

Screens nowadays have anti-reflective coatings to make the brightness of a reflection far, far less than the actual light source if you looked directly at it.

So… You say you need a matte screen for the increased brightness to work?

Which isn’t a penis issue but a dysphoria issue.

You must have a pretty specific workflow that fails so completely using Microsoft Office.

My company provides latex templates, so I’m using those. They also provide a gitlab instance, so working collaboratively is easy and reliable.

The second point is that as has already been mentioned, you can keep using the computer after the software support ends, that doesn’t really work for most subscription software.

Fair point.

An admittedly excellent office suite

Every time some colleague uses office and I’m forced to hop on as well it feels like my whole workflow just grinds to a halt and there’s nothing that I’d want more than to throw my laptop out the window… There’s not much else that I hate with the same passion like ms Office. “Admittedly excellent”? What?

without a digital use by date

What? Apple just drops devices at some point.

But… That’s then something different. How would that solve anything?

“You like medium a bit can’t access it anymore? They should just release it as medium b”

Not only don’t they plan to release it as a movie, so your solution is just as helpful as suggesting to just not remove it from the store, it also changes the whole medium. Like, I get that interactive movies aren’t your thing. But if there’s an awesome live dvd by your favourite band that’s taken off the market, suggesting that they should just release it as an audio CD is just completely missing the point.

And you don’t see the systemic issue? Like… You are aware that games you like could be affected by the same issue eventually?

My dad always sliced onions wearing diving goggles. Always said he might look stupid but it works.

That’s nice and all but not what the headline compared and therefore not the point. That comparison was specifically between ICEs and EVs.

Yes.

I was angry for about a minute… “What the fuck, people are wearing anc headphones when driving a car???” just because it was a Skoda thing and I automatically assumed it would have to have something to do with cars. It took me until the end of the video that she was talking about collisions between cyclists and pedestrians.

There’s a small company party near to where I live that converts ICEs to EVs.

Bottom line is that it’s expensive as fuck to do so and the clients are either well-off folks that want an electric version of their favourite historic car (DeLorean or 2cv or something like that) or companies that calculate much differently, with six digits worth of km on their delivery vehicles. It’s not economical to do that to an ordinary car with ordinary kilometres per year.

I’m driving one.

It’s nice.

So? Overall risk is still much lower.

First time I ever heard about guardrails having issues with EVs. Do you have a source for that?

Also the comment was about the fire risk, which the article was about.

The article is about batteries that might catch fire less often.

ICEs catch fire much more often than EVs already. The comment was specifically about that.

They don’t catch fire that often though.

Which is what that headline is about.

Which has nothing to do with the drive train.

the breakthrough that makes EVs safer than ICE cars

Did Toyota write this? EVs already are much safer than ICEs, the headline reads like it’s trying to gaslight people into thinking otherwise.
