Besides Musk…it’s the fact they are still using the same design from 10+ years ago. When I see a tesla, I can’t tell the difference between the S & 3 or the X & Y. They made one car and scaled it in their software. All 4 cars are due for a redesign and they don’t need to all look identical. And they need to figure out how to actually assemble them without being shit.
These companies have been doing so good lately with everyone only wanting trucks and SUV’s as there is insane markup on those types of vehicles. The companies can afford to pass along some of those profits to their workers.
And expecting our government to have the knowledge to regulate is crazy. I agree with you but our current government doesn’t have the slightest clue what technology is.
Vehicle related forums are very much alive. It’s the best place you can go to get help with your car. I hang around on a couple different ones and it’s far better than anything I’ve seen on Reddit.
I don’t know why so many are caught up on the interest rate. You shouldn’t keep a balance on your credit card and should pay it off every month. No rewards card will ever come close to a good thing if you ever pay interest on it.
It’s also 5 points per dollar when spending at Microsoft, which is 5% back and a good deal. Majority of cards are 1% base with a bonus if you shop at their store. This card is pretty standard for the industry.
I always see people say this but does no one here use professional apps like solidworks or revit? Are there good Linux alternatives? I’d switch to Linux but I need solidworks for work I do.
Same design language and copy cats are different. I can clearly make the difference of a Jetta/Passat or Civic/Accord. They obviously share a similar design but are definitely their own. Tesla’s on the other hand, I couldn’t tell you the difference of the X or Y. They look identical. Even the sedans look damn near identical. And no other car company keeps the exact same design for 10+ years (besides Toyota and the 4Runner)
24 inch wheels? Jesus Christ, get ready to spend half the value of the car on tires every few years.
People don’t want domestic economy cars. People who like domestic brands want trucks and SUV’s. People who want economy cars will pretty much only look at Honda/Toyota and both those manufacturers still make economy vehicles.
I have never once seen someone online recommend a ford focus or Chevy cruze to anyone. It’s always a carolla/Camry or civic/accord.
I’ve tried about 5-6 different ones and they all try to replicate Apollo. Memmy is probably the best of them in my opinion but none of them are as good as narwhal was for Reddit. I don’t understand the fascination for Apollo. Why we need 6 different Lemmy apps that are all very similar doesn’t make sense to me.
Those games are not purchased. You lose them when you unsubscribe to ps plus.
Except apple doesn’t take away any time you’ve paid for just like your Netflix example. If I were to cancel my apple one sub it would remain active until the 22nd….because that’s what I’ve already prepaid for. Apple does cancel you’re unpaid for free trial immediately because you didn’t pre pay for anything.
Our taxes aren’t even that high. Look at what people used to pay up until the 80’s. We should go back to where we actually taxed millionaires and corporations instead of coming up with yet another tax haven account for them. Regular people can’t contribute to these things because they don’t have the disposable income. They are meant for the rich with some bullshit excuse to make us feel good.
So cringey. Some people do like Apple products. Nothing beats the Mac/macbook, Apple Watch, iPad or AirPods in their respective categories. Android and iPhone are basically feature wise the same so get what you like.
But, how is it any different than being vendor locked into android with their wearables or tablets or chromebooks? Apple made an ecosystem that works well together. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s bad.
I switched over to lemm.ee fully a couple of weeks ago because Lemmy.world was down constantly. I’ve yet to run into issue on lemm.ee
Ever since covid it’s made sense most of the time to buy brand new for exactly the reason you state. I sure wouldn’t buy a 2-3 year old car to save 10%. If someone treated it poorly it may require expensive repairs or not last as long.
What’s wrong with Raivo?
I have gamepass ultimate and it says I can’t play till the 6th
They are vehicle specific. I own a Toyota tundra and a Mazda Miata so I hang out on tundras.com and miata.net
Your first comment was about a family of devices and now you only talk about the iPhone….because that’s the only device that has an open source alternative. Google/android/chrome offerings to every other category are worse than apples offerings, stuff is half baked. I’m all for open source but there is no denying how smooth all of apples devices just work with each other. That means something too. Not being open source do not equal bad automatically either.
I personally don’t care about taking source code and compiling it or installing custom roms. I have other hobbies that take my time. I want a devices that work 99% of the time without effort straight from the box.
If you enjoy non-apple products that’s great but this place just feels like the early days of Reddit where everyone is so anti-Apple because it’s cool. They do some shitty things (like basically every company ever) but they also do some really cool things too, like a family of 6 different products working seamlessly together.
Yeah, that’s kind of my point. Why would they keep making them when they have a rep of being bad and no one buys them? People want their trucks and SUV’s
I use adguard and adguard VPN on my phone. I have an adguard home server set up on my home network so I use that when I’m at home instead. I don’t VPN into my network as others have suggested because I have Xfinity and I have limited monthly data.
I’ll have to give it another go. When I tried it before I didn’t think it was any better than Memmy
Doesn’t matter to me. I have like 10 different credit cards to get the best cash back depending where I’m shopping. Currently the best I get at Microsoft would be 2% so this is a pretty sweet card.
It won’t be hard to find the planes these parts are associated with. Aerospace is hardcore about traceability. It’s not like people flying need to be worrying about the plane they are on.
