Because some people would go insane without having an external authority to appeal to; the extant systems of academia and qualification create an "objective" truth these peoples' psyches can cling to.

It is the other way around only if you live in a delusion and have some sort of hatred for Apple. 11 generations in and they still overheat...
Thank you for fighting the good fight.

My favorite part of how robust it was was how literally every single Lightning connector had the same pin burn out. USB-C wishes it were that consistent.

Its only going to be impossible if people wont keep fighting even when it seems hopeless.

And the experience makes sense for what Rolls aims to do. Riding in a Spectre feels way more like riding in other Rolls' than it does an EV.
Love this and thank you for switching to perpetual, I will be signing up if the trial goes well as I am not satisfied with Sidebar's application behavior!
Also conveniently ignores Toyota's quality slipping to shit in recent years
Best selling car worldwide and not a super affordable one at that, but if you listen to everyone on the internet who "doesn't own a Tesla but has ridden in hundreds", they'll you very authoritatively they're mediocre cars.
Literally the only people who can think that this dude is anywhere remotely objective is if you are already a Tesla hater; he posts qualifications in every title and always adjusts the wording and tone to be negative. Every Electrek's take on an article is him describing how he warned everyone about the Elon/Tesla heel turn as you laid it out. It screams confirmation bias but since he isn't a journalist there's no code of ethics he's bound to follow.
Haven't looked back since I signed up.
This has to be satire right?

You don't need to have kids to nut up and take responsibility for yourself and others.

AKA, the system at work and our issues just become bargaining chips for influence by the parties.

It is quite literally the same and the distinction between hemp and marijuana is entirely arbitrary as defined by a shitty and ignorant law.

>(easy legal CBD/hemp, as long as there aren’t other things in there)

Your ignorance shows in spades. The arbitrary ban on THC and its analogues prevent chronic pain patients like me (a criminally underserved market) from becoming addicted to the big pharma system. The "other things in there" argument is the same as razorblades in candy, sanctimony to portray dissent as degeneracy.

Victorinox makes one of the better ones though theyre just pricey. I like my MXBS.

Telling everyone to learn Python to solve all of their problems is not a legitimate or realistic suggestion or solution.
Re:I only use Google Sheets on Wednesday October 01, 2025 @11:21AM (#45438781)
This is anecdotal bias even now. The number of these monster spreadsheets running organizations that should be more sophisticated than they are would most likely keep anyone here up at night.
Because you don't need to use that shifter regularly; you shift gears on the screen in that car and they have capacitive buttons near the caution lights on the ceiling as a redundant backup.
Id like to point out that the comment about the manual release is a bit disingenuous since most people accidentally use them when trying to get out as it is more akin to a traditional car than the intended method for opening the doors which is a thumb button. In my anecdotal experience anyway.
Re:Tesla market share in US drops to lowest since 2017 on Monday September 08, 2025 @10:34PM (#45176733)
I daily drive a Model 3 and when I rented a Honda Civic for a trip I thought it was broken with how long it took to get any speed. You're trolling regarding the Chrysler comment lol

Why are you staring at your instrument panel and not the road? The speed is just a glance at the top corner as you should be focused on driving ;)

I unironically believe there are deep lessons about psychology and sociology contained beneath the ridiculousness.
Can't unmake the fact that you are convicted criminal forever though.

Then get your ass off of the internet because there as so many commercial entities profiting off of every bit of your use.
Re:How I Use Kagi on Thursday July 17, 2025 @04:24PM (#44597776)
So by your logic everyone who participates in capitalism (including yourself) is immoral.

Thank you for creating Kagi, sorry that you're dealing with misguided folks and thanks for the in-depth explanation.

I switched last year and haven't looked back as well. Only thing I miss for convenience sake is the Shopping tab but obviously the privacy concerns arent worth that convenience.
Discord is already like that for a lot of niche communities and fandoms that aren't necessarily gaming; it just all evolved on a gaming-focused platform.
I have a Model 3 and it drives amazingly well, in Florida of all places. Ive taken it all over back roads in FL/GL with a little bit of AL and MS as well. The issues you described were much more prevalent when I got my car in '23, and I have genuinely been watching them become fewer and further between as time passed. I've driven at least 10000 miles on it in the last two years and I have only had to intervene twice.

I have no motivation to be positive; I own no Tesla stock or position and just like it because its the best car for me currently. I cannot emphasize enough just how different my lived experience has been from how you describe it.
