Not that I'm advocating a return to Reddit, but Relay still works

Or just don't buy a luxury car

The economics are compelling, but the cost of ownership for someone like me would also have to factor in the extra interest paid on a loan at least $20K more than a comparably-sized ICE car

Tesla does a lot of things right - their cars are amongst the fastest around and their charging network is superior to any others to date

But their build quality is poor and their autonomous driving features are overstated compared to what they can deliver

Plus their service support is limited due to their direct sell model - there aren't many places to get Tesla's repaired

Tesla did make EVs mainstream though. Consider that their cars outsell popular ICE cars even though the Tesla's cost 50%+ more

So, it's a mixed bag with a lot of their customers, and some outsiders, absolutely fanatical about them, some people hating them by proxy because of Musk, and some people 50/50 on them like any car brand

The AOL of Lemmy?

I've been rear-ended three times in my car, twice while I had been stationary at a light for at least 5 seconds

Things like that are pretty much out of your control and go from annoying in a car, to injury or even death on a bike

Reason #21 that my mid-life crisis hasn't led to me buying a motorbike yet

~~So, Spacey has been accused by a number of people and the charges from one accuser have been dismissed ~~

I need to learn to read the article fully before commenting 🤦‍♂️

The public actions taken by right-wing activists include showing up a events heavily armed, attempting to abduct politicians, and militia-style parading

This isn't a "both sides" situation

Well they started taking down the Twitter sign at HQ, so it's happening

These people are addicted to such a degree that they're functionally on the same level as literal junkies, just without the physical damage. Social media was such a fucking mistake,

• Onii-Chan@kbin.social

He's a douchebag and takes too much credit for the engineering that has made them successfull, but SpaceX has delivered some next-level rockets and Tesla has been very successful creating a new market niche and selling a ton of cars

Check out the app or webpage, they've already put in the temp X logo

Just had a Marketing colleague try to make the case for a SaaS solution telling us the justification was clearly articulated in our company-specific deck he created

Reading the deck and then checking the revision history, it's clear that buddy just pasted in the vendor's brochure ware

Some parts of the business have no place in actually selecting tech

Let's see how aggressive he and Lewis get on lap 1

You have to think that Lewis has nothing to gain by settling for 2nd, and Max wouldn't let his own kid win a backyard race, so he's not conceding anything

The marketing teams have been working overtime on this - well done to them

It looks like they are trying her and Hinch out for more than just the N. Am races. Hunch was at Silverstone and did a solid job

Especially poorly timed with this being Daniel's return weekend

Once we have nations fighting for water resources (tied directly to food production) it wouldn't take long before the entire population is at risk

Ontario's great lakes have been threatened with receding volume, pollution, and mass algae blooms that show how fragile even that massive resource is

Ground water across the globe has been mass polluted and drained to nothing in large areas.

We are a lot more vulnerable than it seems

Innovation and investment is the way to go.

In a lot of countries the electrical supply is unreliable, going down regularly

Innovate to create full-scale renewable grids (best if they can run decentralised when necessary) and invest in implementing these solutions world-wide

Use incentives, like trade agreements for countries, regions, or companies that implement the green tech to make it worthwhile
