While increasing energy efficiency and available space, both of which can be used for extending EV range (by adding more batteries that deplete more slowly) - one of the biggest EV issues right now.

Or you could just fit a mini party bus inside a hatchback, whichever you prefer.

To your point though, one of the othe big EV issues is cost (both purchase and maintenance) - even if a large chunk of it is artificial. Wonder what the price tag and lifespan on these things will be.

We actually found one: a good [blank]. I get where you might be coming from, but you're better than this. I really believe that.

And there's almost no muscle on that chest. Even if there were, there's no muscle that can get that thick on the bottom ribs (the serratus for instance is quite flush with your rib cage)

You keep telling the next investor it'll be profitable soon. I believe the guy that came up with this scheme first went to prison or something, but afterwards we all collectively decided we were cool with it.

You my friend have a desecration kink, closely related, but not necessarily paired with a degradation kink. Easy litmus test in a less religious context - does the fact that you're doing that to someone's daughter/son actually kinda turn you on?

No, shareholder interest, which - in the absence of the clear desire of the majority shareholder(s) - is assumed to be profit. So I think the question above is quite important actually

With the shit that's typically beeing shilled I agree. But there is genuine value in a bank not taking a ridiculous 5-10% cut of a transaction just because it crosses some invisible geographic line. Also why are transaction fees percentages? Do they charge per bit they have to shift in their database?

Why is 50% the target?

Idk, doing this "properly" would take an immense amount of effort and manpower. This feels more like a "let me get enough info for an educated guess" EDA process, which still seems to have taken a lot of effort and I appreciate it a lot.

The same way you safely prepare steak tartare?

Just make sure you put in a stop-loss order

Hey, we've all been there, I know I have. Proud of you ❤️

True, but the business still pays them plenty. It's not so much that they lose money, it's they they earn less.

That's just mismanagement and inflated input costs. The average cc company is happy either way. Idk what it is with Goldman but they mucked up consumer banking too.

The Internationale begins playing in the background

The kakoune editor cimes with clippy by default. It's not exactly a Vim version though, but close enough.

Man, of all the Lemmy instances to choose a thunderbolt screen name with... Jk, glad you had a good experience - welcome aboard man

The trouble with that is that it shows a certain amount of respect

Idk man, I feel like there were definitely a couple

Sounds like a virtuous cycle to me

You know, you may have just changed my mind

Truth be told, once I made myself live without extensions for a week, I realized I never needed them in the first place. Gnome has a way of making you discover a slightly different way of doing the same thing that in hindsight just works better with the overall system than an extension would.

But to each their own...

My man heard of CJK input methods and thought they were a study guide. Then threw in English and French to confuse the enemy. Props to you dude! That said, you're a walking i18n nightmare.

But what if your hard to explain kinks damn near kill you?

Personally I think communities should be tags - lobste.rs style. You would have tag mods determining whether a tag belongs or doesn't, and it'll increase participation in the comments since everone interested in the post will be discussing it in the same place (nifty, as lemmy is still growing). Cross-posting always felt like a bolt-on solution. It also addresse the issue of cross-instance content preservation in case of outage better

That pun requires more tiki torches and a bit of inbreeding

Or just be honest and say "I need to think about it." Wins hearts and minds big time.

I've only really spent 2 minutes looking at the man's wikipedia page to check for any obvious clues but I couldn't find any.

Sauce for him being a fascist please? Because that's a pretty heavy accusation to throw at someone, living or dead.

That could be true, I don't know honestly.

But then it's an issue of bad fee structures, or rather overestimating defaulter numbers. It's not like the amount of money you make from fees reduces as your interest earnings go up, so - if this is indeed the cause - the only thing I can conclude is that to meet their total projected earnings they assumed people would default en masse. Bad long term business and slim margins if you ask me.

At the same time I have a hard time not drawing a parallel between this and GS Marcus. Apple had nothing to do with the latter and both went under (effectively), with both being forays into regular consumer services for GS.

Then again I'm just an armchair general. What do I know.

Not weighing in on either side of the discussion, but that's a video that's almost completely unrelated to the topic above.

It speaks to how overleveraged/poorly managed a lot of Chinese development was, leading to a borderline colapse of the construction industry, and largely leaves the subject of ghost cities unaddressed.

Ok, now I get the link you're trying to make, but it doesn't fully adress my question.

The one thing that's still leaving me prickly is simply saying Wikipedia is wrong because it's editable by anyone. That's like saying FOSS is insecure because it's editable by anyone. Neither the conclusion nor the premise is correct in either case. There are hierarchies & access controls in both that often yield better results than the traditional alternative.

Wikipedia is a treasure, and while it is still vulnerable to brigading (far more so than FOSS), this is far from the norm (especially nowadays) and should be backed up with specific sources and rectified.

While I do agree with you that Wikipedia shouldn't be cited directly due to this vulnerability, it acts as an excellent contextual citation aggregator, and quite frankly I've often found it more up-to-date and less biased than some of the crap that made it past the peer review process in my college days.

For instance, if what you're saying is true (shortsightedness), people may over the years still populate those areas (the claim of the Wikipedia article is that a lot/most of the ghost cities did). If you have sources stating otherwise, please report the article for manipulation and include them there. If you don't feel like it, post them here and I will do so, despite knowing absolutely nothing about Chinese ghost cities, because I believe this is important.

Please don't dismiss such a shining example of human collective action so lightly. It's one of the few things that makes me believe there's still some good left in the world.

Yes, but I've had it across multiple sites that play video, so I don't think it's youtube.

Of course what could have happened is that that cut was way bigger then the usual Apple Pay deal.

Plus it irritates the skin less cause you only really need 1-2 passes (shaving with those multi blade razors takes ages and 3-5 passes in my experience if the hair is anything beyond 1 mm long). Remember to rinse the blade every 1-2 passes too.

Takes a second to get used to the keybindings but after about ~2w you can painlessly switch back and forth between vim and helix pretty much instantly

No one's doing anything about it now and everyone knows it's happening (no one's meaningfully denying it, some people are just secretly fine with it). Why would an expose spelling it out after the fact change anything? We've done this dance before unfortunately.

Didn't know they were so generous with the terms. But I meant the fees they charge merchants. At least that's how the business usually works if I'm not mistaken. Biggest cut of the merchant fee goes to the issuer bank, a smidge to the payment network, and a smalish portion to the merchant bank. Apple usually takes a portion of the issuer bank's cut (in this case GS)

Android is Linux. It's all the stuff on top that makes it more secure - 90% of which is covered by flatpak + MAC.

Skip the masochism, try helix. Switched to that + zellij with about 20 lines of config and never looked back
