I like that the title of this post points out the least interesting part of the article, well done.

How about cutting veto rights and financial aid instead?

I’ve owned a Tesla and I’d say your wrong about pretty much everything here.

The whole point of buying an EV is that it stops polluting after it’s been manufactured (ignoring tires) and specifically that you stop polluting your local environment, making it out like used gas powered cars are just as good as used EVs is disingenuous at best.

At least it still has the same low effort comments as Reddit.

That is an insane take to me. Elon Musk is Nazi scum and the Tesla has issues, but the infotainment system is the best you can get in any car and the main reason I haven’t been able to get rid of it, ignoring the fact that literally every other non Chinese EV in the same price range in my country is objectively worse specced.

Having an extremely responsive map with satellite imagery that boots up instantly is already better than every other car out there, but it also has built-in dashcam and livestream functionality for all 4 cameras, which is a bitch to install in other cars, and it’s already saved me a bunch of times.

Android Auto just plain sucks ass, disconnects constantly and a lot of newer models still require a wired connection.

Also worth noting you’re not paying for the infotainment, you’re paying for the cellular connection, with whatever local cellular company they are working with. In my case it’s cheaper than getting a data plan directly from the cellular company and my old Hyundai didn’t even have that option in my country.

It’s blatantly obvious what they are doing. I have a 10 year old company Twitter account I don’t use anymore, and at some point they put suggested tweets in my notifications, which would usually be related to my industry because of the accounts I follow. Now it’s a constant barrage of Elon and Andrew Tate tweets… In my notifications… It’s being forced down my throat, and I haven’t engaged or even seen their content at any point in time.

That feels a bit disingenuous. The record labels were already thoroughly fucking over musicians.

A big caveat maybe that I’ve been making music for decades but only started playing drums a couple of months ago, so it’s not going to be very efficient drumming + I’m a programmer, so my fitness is already very low :D

I noticed the same a while back and looked it up, and some website says 1 hour of drumming is about equal to 10k steps in burned calories. I don’t know how accurate that is, but going by my sweat levels after 1 hour of drumming, I’m counting it.

Actually simpler, if you have an Asus router. Just remember to disable its telemetry stuff…
