  • Anyone have some good electric cars?

    Jump

  • Aptera has been saying this since 2017.

    Personally, I like the Mach E, but I have some fundamental complaints about EVs right now, specifically, they looks like ICE cars. The propulsion method has changed, but the packaging has not updated to fit the new capabilities. Electric cars now are like jets in the 1950's, we need to move past old frames and ideas and work to make the vehicle fit the motor better. Also, EVs are too damn big, and thats because charging infrastructure is a fragmented PITA right now. We wouldn't need 250 mile+ capable vehicles if you could count on having a fast charger at most highway exits.

  • Sure, but realize that the current level of personal computing is a smartphone, we're not that far off from your home "PC" just being a display, KB, mouse, and maybe an interface for some external storage and peripherals. I wouldn't be shocked if that happenes some time in the next 10 years.

    That being said, I think there will still be a significant group of people who will own their own hardware.

  • 'Do Not Get Numb to This': Trump Admin Kills 3 More People in Caribbean

    Jump

  • My main point is that historically, there has been one particular political group in the United States which consistently does the worst shit possible to the rest of the world. Not saying they've never done anything good, not saying that they are the only group that has ever done bad shit. I am saying that it's a pretty big stretch to say "both sides are the same, just look at this map" and then have 11 of the 12 listed examples being perpetrated by one group, and the 1 example by the other group is disinfo/misinfo. I think it brings serious question into the validity of saying "both sides are the same" and the validity of the document overall.

    Also, map was hard to read at a glance, when I said #8, I was referring to Honduras. I thought the numbers were a key of some sort, not a count of military interventions.

  • Because, f**k you! That's why.

  • Still on Mint. Haven't needed to load my windows drive up in weeks. My non-tech enthusiast partner is coming around to trying Linux after seeing what a shitshow 11 is on her work computer. It would be great to get her to switch over before my 140 dollar bill for Office 365 needs to be renewed.

    I've also got some other family members who are interested in trying it out, which is really saying something for a group of people who got started with Win 95, and are very proficient and comfortable in Microsoft's ecosystem.

  • Okay? The problems highlighted in the infographic have nothing to do with how much military spending was approved, and everything to do with when and more specifically, where it was used.

    Would you be mad at republicans for approving more social service funding if Biden spent that money giving bailouts to corporations for "daycare"? (Purely hypothetical situation here)

  • Money like that, you fly in on your own helicopter, so you don't have to ride in the less comfortable helicopter for your entourage.

  • Curious about the sourcing on number 8 there. The Wikipedia article on his removal states that the US supported the results of the election and condemned his removal and the coup overall. Once Zelaya was removed, Secretary of State Clinton tried to capitalize on the situation to strengthen Homduras' dependency on US aid. I'd say that falls in a morally gray area, but it's a far cry from an actual US backed coup.

    NGL, I originally started looking into this infographic because basically every one of those incidents involves a Republican administration except that one.

  • The Republican Party Has a Nazi Problem | How did the GOP become a haven for slogans and ideas straight out of the Third Reich?

    Jump

  • How?

    That's like asking how Trump got in the Epstein files over a million times. It was a coordinated effort by both of them, that lead to a long and comfortable relationship with the slimmest margins of plausible deniability.

    I'm still waiting to see if the Nazis jail and execute the Republicans eventually, or if it will be the other way round.

  • Oof. Sorry, didn't mean to call you out on your "illegal" rig. Looks nice though. My set up is just a couple of midland radios. I give one to my wife when she's chatty and tries to hold a convo with me from her office upstairs.

  • I'm about to start with meshtastic. A few years ago, my wife bought some "illegal" FRS/GMRS radios, and it was cheaper and easier to get my GMRS license than it was to return the radios, and that whole process opened up a world of invisible bullshit I could get lost in.
