  • You Need Way Less EV Range Than You Think: Study

    Jump

  • Good for them. Until I can get a full charge from zero in 5 minutes, EVs are not an acceptable replacement for most people.

  • Once or twice a year? Do you mean daily? We have a phev Prius and it is great. It is able to run EV mode to work, but the trip home requires hybrid mode.

  • This is a nonstarter. Stopping for 30min to charge is not acceptable for a majority of people.

    When we drive long distances, stop time is minimized. Fill up gas, while someone goes to get food while others go to the bathroom. The stop is done in under 10 min and we are in the way.

    If I have to stop twice per direction, that’s an additional 40+ min on my drive. No fucking thanks.

  • I’m extremely technically literate, build my own PCs and write my own software tools.

    I don’t use Linux at home because I don’t want to fiddle. I want to sit down, open steam, and play a game.

    I use Linux for many things, but my personal computer uses windows because it just works all the time.

  • My daughter lost her social studies essay because LibreOffice doesn't have autosave on automatically.

    Jump

  • Ok. I’ll try to put it more simply for you.

    • She dictated her essay
    • you typed her essay
    • her essay wasn’t saved and got deleted
    • you type your version of her essay
    • she turned in/will turn in your essay

    The essay she is going to submit is not her words but yours.

  • Yes. You should have made her sit with you and redo the entire assignment. Not as punishment, but as rectifying the mistake as she would have had to do had she been the typist.

    Treat it as a learning moment and not as punishment.

  • Look at how you’ve handled this situation so far. Seriously, step back and take a look at it.

    First, we can skip the typing for her because that’s been discussed to death. But then, when you found the mistake, you immediately started typing again and even called it cheating because you were trying to sound like a 13 yr old girl. You are teaching her that using any means necessary to get a good grade is acceptable.

    Next, you are trying to blame the software and not take responsibility for your mistake. This is teaching her not to take responsibility but to instead find something else to blame for mistakes.

    No, you should not punish her for your mistake, but you should instead teach her how to handle mistakes.

    I guarantee that this will happen to her in the future when she is typing her own work. She will get mad, blame the software, then cheat to get a good grade. This is what you’ve taught her.

  • What educational purpose would making her do the whole thing again serve?

    Learning from mistakes. Learning that when you screw up, you don’t get a free pass to fix your mistakes. Learning to save frequently when working on a document. I can go on and on.

    You are coddling your child and I feel bad for her.

  • Google is an advertising company. Apple is a hardware/software company. They have very different incentives from one another. Neither are my friend, but one’s entire business model runs on psychological manipulation, the other sells iPhones.

  • China sees two 'bowls of poison' in Biden and Trump and ponders who is the lesser of two evils

    Jump

  • This wasn’t the point though. It is that both options are bad. Yes, one is objectively less bad, but I’d guess a majority of Americans will not vote for Biden but instead against Trump.

    I will absolutely cast a vote for Biden, but not because I like Biden.

  • The person you are replying to is using a very typical social media propaganda playbook.

    Ignore them and move on. They are trying to waste your time, frustrate you, and make you give up.

  • TIL about Earl Silverman, a domestic abuse survivor who founded a shelter for men. It was denied funding from the government and he was ridiculed. The shelter went bankrupt and he died by suicide

  • The men’s lib group here on Lemmy is just as pathetic. Read any of their posts and they do not sound like men, but instead like a beaten down, passive group of people that cannot stand up for themselves.

    Berlin Stops Blocking Artists From Criticizing Israel After Massive Boycott

  • Keep saying this. Every time you do Israel loses more public support.

    The shield has been used up and is no longer valid. The general public no longer accepts you zealots calling every criticism of Israel antisemitism.

    So fuck you and fuck Israel. Yes Israel has a right to exist, but they do not have a right to illegally steal land. Palestine has a right to exist also.
