That really will be the perfect repost when he dies and MAGA inevitably tries to call out everyone celebrating as disrespectful

That lip bite really sells the idea that he wants to fuck those noodles

I’m ready and willing. It’s well past time we set some shit on fire 🔥

It’s not just that but that is part of it. If you’ve ever done electrical load calculations you will find that they can be pretty complex even with a single power source. When you start trying to do capacitance, inductance, or impedance calculations with hundreds of power sources it gets out of hand pretty quickly. That makes what used to be fairly routine design decisions much more difficult to work through.

That’s not to mention the additional danger to workers who need to repair damaged transmission lines. If the electric company shuts off a certain section then it should be safe to touch a line in that area right? Not if there’s active solar panels in the area.

Fair enough. I get what you’re saying. I just have so little faith in the government that even pointing out obvious legal obstacles feels like a pointless endeavor.

How do you still have this kind of optimism about our government?

I don’t work in car sales but I’m not sure how that’s relevant. What conclusion are you trying to reach here? This conversation is about EVs being better than ICE vehicles. Those big ICE vehicles not fitting in a standard garage sounds like another point for the EVs to me. Especially since there’s very little, if any, practical benefits to that additional space.

They are all SUVs with 3 rows of seats and a good sized trunk. If you want to be pedantic of course you can find differences. They aren’t literally the exact same vehicle. The things you noted are not good reasons to choose an ICE vehicle over an EV though. Saying they aren’t similar sizes at all is straight up ridiculous.

The same people who buy Suburbans and Escalades could buy Rivians or a Kia EV9 instead. They’re similar sizes and price ranges. People are just dumb

I don’t know much about the company. I just know they’re working on releasing an electric SUV/truck (it could be either depending on what you want) and it’s supposedly going to be priced around $25k. They might be full of shit for all I know but that’s the marketing buzz at least.

“That’s not me, it’s AI generated”

That wasn’t very hard to come up with and it’s a lot less stupid than a bunch of other stuff Americans believe

Windows was less shitty in the 90s too

Drowning man in such a panic that he drowns attempted rescuer as well

I’ll never buy a computer that can’t be run without this shit. If that means I run what I have until it breaks and then never have a PC again then that’s what I’ll do

CEOs have all sounded the same for years now. Add in LLM talking points regularly and they all sound like robots with a broken speech unit

Thanks, I appreciate you posting this as well. I have been trying to do better about supporting open source projects lately and I was just thinking about Linux phones the other day so it was well timed. It would be awesome if we could get one to the point that more casual users could run it without trouble, but that kind of thing doesn’t happen on its own. If we want freedom we’ll have to pay for it in one way or another.

Interesting concept. This kind of thing needs more support. Let’s make it happen. I’ll start:

Even if he does realize it he won’t have to live with the consequences

People keep saying this but would you really do that? If we make it out of this mess and do some actual investigations to hold people accountable for it all a few years from now, would you be comfortable defending your choice to work for this administration with a statement like “no seriously guys, I was undercover the whole time?” I sure as shit wouldn’t want to. That doesn’t even touch on the host of ethical lines one would have to cross just to keep up appearances.
