True journalism seems to be on its way out. Why pay journalists to research and investigate when you can pump out tons of ai generated garbage for nearly free.

Probably 19+14 =19+4+10

While I agree, the nutters out there would have started death threats daily. I don't blame him for not wanting that treatment.

But maybe congress could be in a position to change that.

I put down a deposit recently, like last month, but I have a similar outlook. I wanna see how they do after a few years to see how they hold up first. But if they look good and start selling like hotcakes I might be glad I put a deposit down early. Otherwise I'll cancel and get a Chevy bolt begrudgingly.

I wanna be optimistic because I do want Aptera to at least push the whole industry towards more repairable efficient and cheep evs.

I think I heard mentioned that they expect the wrap to last 5-10 years, which isn't great, but not terrible.

I don't think they have a choice with right to repair, as changing their stance would be detrimental to their following.

It looks very modular, with company claiming a right to repair philosophy.

The painting seems to be aiming for a lower emissions vehicle, cheaper costs. Given that the body is not metal replacing panels should be easier if they get damaged.

Not to mention battery size doesn't need to be as large, so replacing it should be viable.

I'm hopeful but still got see how everything shakes out.

Actually maintained rail shouldn't have this problem, but the private companies like Norfolk Southern spend the minimum amount to keep them operational.

With a budget just a fraction of highway upkeep and expansion they should be able to be kept in good repair.

So much of that freight should be moved by rail.

Tax based on weight to 4th power would work if we nationalized railways like roads.

I'm pretty sure it's google trying to get you to use chrome, as chrome behaves how you think it should.

It seems like they are targeting something like the steamdeck for low end: 720p 30 fps, low settings, but high at 1440p 60 fps is many more pixels/s (~8 times as much?) and with higher settings.

This I think should be good, as it will scale well with better hardware while still being accessible.

You were the one who really showed me what it was really like over there, so now I'm back on my lemmy.world account instead.

It's a damn shame they can't act in accordance with their power and star trek principles.

This really should be a sign that the admins of startrek.website are running their communities in manner that is upsetting their own community.

Land value tax, also popularly known as georgism.

I still hate them. Their goal isn't to increase safety but to increase revenue, or they're placed by incompetent people.

Americas aproach to road design is so backwards and gets many people killed.

Its a little strange to think about, but there's nothing 'natural' about modern crops.

For millenia selective breeding was used to get desired traits, with who knows how many other mutations along the way.

More recently radiation has been used to induce mutations in crops to wider diversity.

GMOs are just the next step in more precisely editing a plants genome with only the changes we want.

Now the corpations making them like Monsanto can get fucked, they should still be treated like every other plant. If you have seeds you should be able to plant them.

It could be compression. Xbox has hardware dedicated for it that can't be relied on pc.

Buy a object like a lamp that has 3 prongs and exposed metal. Before you pet your dog touch the lamp. 3 prongs so thats it's grounded.

Also when you touch your dog for the first time touch him on his body with you whole hand at once, it'll spread the shock over a larger area and be less painful.

It is in america. Roads are too wide and straight, which sends subtle signals that its safe to go faster than the speed limit.

This is especially bad on roads that have had their speed limit reduced without changing anything else.

I blame American road designers for speeding more, because we should be designing roads that reflect the speed we want them to drive.

Though the best solution to speeding is just removing cars, but I doubt that will happen.

On the otherhand things like plex let my friends outsource their piracy to me.

The 5 series was never midrange. Its like the 1 series, but smaller.

The 5 ii was the same as the 1ii, just with a smaller size and no wireless charging.
